Today is a Good Day

Because the sky was this color

for the first time in what seems like FOR--E--VER!

I got to go here-

It's been a while (by my standards).

I got to start planning my trip to this place:

Seriously- so FREAKING excited to go!

And I watched this happen

and I just love these folks.

Such a lovely love story. :)

Just a Reminder

Remember this post?

Well, this is her story:

Please take the time to watch it- and please remember that being different is a good thing.

She is beautiful. She is funny. She is crazy intelligent. She is amazingly talented. She is my friend.

Oh, and she is tattooed.

Dear Valentine,

200 Years

You weren't the world's most upstanding citizen, but you wrote some mighty fine stories.

Thank you for letting us peek in to the craze filled minds of the Miss Havishams and Fagins.

Thank you for letting us grow up with the Pips, Olivers and Davids.

Thank you for letting us fall in love with Esthers and Dr Woodcourts.

But most of all, Thank you for showing us that it's never too late in life to turn a new leaf like the Ebenezers.

Happy Birthday, Mr Dickens. Happy Birthday.
