I missed out on posting on Valentines Day because I was driving through Missouri, or something. But I didn't want to let the Valentine's goodness pass unmentioned! So here you go. Better late than never. First off, I got some sweet postcards from Love146 that both supported a worthy cause and gave me an excuse to stick stamps on paper and mail them. (because. I still like snail mail. and real, live books.) AND! I could write all over them with a sharpie. I love sharpies. Sappy alert! [It's true. I am sappy sometimes.] For your viewing pleasure, this part of You've Got Mail. (Which happens to be my favorite chick flick.) "How about coffee or drinks or dinner or a movie... for as long as we both shall live." Favorite line of the movie. For reals. And this Mr. Darcy quote :) from here . and that's all. thanks for stopping by. :)

exchanging pleasantries

Hey so I'm sick today. That means no kissing, Liz. R ight. I'll keep that in mind. Oh poop. Poop, poop, poop. (pause) I can't say anything else cuz i'm around kids a lot. Not good for them to hear those other words. Say, could you wipe my schnoz? that would be a negative. but i'll sure give you some tissue. Yeah, my husband died just a little while a go. ( sympathetic face. mumbling something about being sorry.) Yeah. It's really a bummer because I lost all of his social security income! (raises eyebrows) oh, is that right? Friend: Alright now, you behave. ( commence shuffling out the door.) Patient: (giggles) I'll try not to molest them. (winks at me) I'll keep my hands to myself! and this is the part where I am glad that I can drive and laugh at my partners trapped in the back. I hate hospitals! Hate them. Can't trust those people. why's that? Well! My father went in for his fifth bypass surgery. Never heard from him si...

it's days like this where i dream of bare feet on the warm side walk, late night adventures by [and occasionally in] the river, thunderstorms, days off at the lake, warm breezes, campfires, bike rides and no layers. but. the snow and cold are.not.relenting. anytime soon. sigh.
