Day 244...

Confessions. à la Brittany, Herself.

#1 - I think Sam Elliott is still one of the sexiest men walking the planet.

#2 - I get super antsy every 6-12 months and want to move somewhere new. Sometimes, I combat this urge by rearranging my furniture. sometimes I move.

#3 - sneezing almost always makes me giggle

#4 - I've never read some of the books I own. not to say that I won't, but I have several I purchased years ago and still have not read. that said, I have several books which I read at least once a year or so.

#5 - when I was young (after reading Lisa Bright and Dark and I Never Promised You a Rose Garden) I desperately wanted to spend time in an asylum. completely unrelated, I also desperately wanted to be Catholic. It's possible there is something really wrong with me...I still fantasize about a delicious padded room. but I'd also be just as happy if I just had a velcro wall.

Day 243...

I love...

Naps.

We closed the office early today and I came home and napped off and on all afternoon.

of course, I've spent the last two evenings waking by 3:30 am...so there's that.

Day 242...

I love that Stephan did this!

DEAD BIRDS FALL FROM THE SKY

so excited for him!

Day 241...

I love...
early morning quiet and the hint of autumn in the air. thoughts of sweaters, fine wale corduroy and super soft comfy socks. Coffee, cinnamon raisin English muffin w/ tomato preserves and a favourite movie playing. kitties snoring on the ottoman. Reading a few chapters of "Good Omens" (recommended to me by my son) and discovering that Neil Gaiman is completely brilliant. laughing til my face hurts. discovering that the squirrels are fastidiously "hiding" their winter stores in the corners of my porch.
