be still my heart.

I am so thrilled, so absolutely head-swirlingly thrilled, to see Ryan Adams returning to the sound I know and love so well. It makes me feel warm and happy and comfortable, like slipping into my favorite pair of jams at the end of the day.

This is exactly what I needed. What we all need. But especially you, SH. I think Ryan Adams made this album just for you.


a possible link?

It’s interesting to me that the House is voting to allow more stem cell research while the Senate makes way for the confirmation of Priscilla Owen. Hmm.

hmmm.

I wonder if deals were made behind closed doors.

hmmmm.


the desert = soul sucking heat.

As I type this right now, at 7:30pm, it’s 96°F outside. For those of you feeling it metrically, that’s around 36°C.

Tomorrow, we’re looking at 105F/41C for highs.

The hell is just beginning.

the desert = please kill me.


9 months!

ry guy is 9 months old today. Nine months feels like a big milestone, like 1 month and 6 months did. Because I was pregnant for nine months. And now he’s been on the outside for nine months. And there’s only three little months left till his first birthday. He’s growing up fast.

Here are a few pictures to celebrate.
