DONE

my taxes are done. i have a headache. i'm going to go treat myself to a nice venti chai latte. with extra cinnamon.

Why I gave up on "the violin, anne rice"

i have no idea. i love all her other books. my bil gave it too me for christmas one year, i've diligently chipped away at it. all her other books, i've flown through. this one just doesn't hold my attention. i'm so sorry, ms. rice.

If I had easy access to a helicopter, I'd fly to savannah, ga this weekend

i've never lived there. only visited once. but it's home. the senator lives there and it feels like home to me.

weird but good combo #3

celery sticks and salmon cream cheese.

no, i'm not pregnant. i eat much more normal when i'm pregnant.

wow. am i bored or what?

sitting here in bed. chatting with the senator online. i'm all caught up on my blog reading. i don't want to turn on a light, because then i'll reach for my book and i really should be thinking about sleep. i'm so bored.

the president

i got chills. yes, i cried. when don't i? i just watched the swearing in of president obama. our first black president.

i love you and will support you, my senator. we'll disagree on so many things, but that won't change my love for you. our new president is just one of the first things we disagree on. this year isn't just a change for the presidency, but a change for us. you and i get to move forward together.

brr... grr... brr...

what is it about people who think that going 5 up an icy hill is a good idea? no one can get enough forward momentum (what with all the brake tapping) to go forward and they naturally "fall" off the road. granted screaming down the highway at 80 isn't a good idea either. that's how people flip their cars and land on the roof of the car.
