Look at me!

Don’t I look gorgeous?

Of course I do! You can’t tell just by looking, but the reason I look so fab is because I am writing this entry on my new computer. my new iMac. I am loving it. It’s almost too sexy for me to continue writing.

I feel special. I hate that buying a mac makes me feel special, but it does. Only the cool people have them. Only the pretty and the tall and the smart. The ones who drink martinis and know their wines and laugh at mexicans. Well, I can laugh at the mexicans with the best of them! Plus, I actually KNOW real live mexicans, so that counts for extra.

So happy presidents day to me.



raindrops keep falling on my head.

Okay, they’re not literally falling on my head, but they are falling, and onto my roof.

I have to say, I love being the only one awake in the house, listening to the rain. It’s a very warm, comforting feeling, like mother nature is letting me in on a secret.

Ryland is six months old now. I have a six-month old baby. I want him to stay little forever. Getting older is hard enough for me, now I have to watch my little boy get older. He isn’t going to remember these early days and I’ll never forget them. I wish they would never ever end.

boy do I love rainy nights. Especially now. It makes me feel so cozy and safe to snuggle up to him in bed and fall asleep, the rain talking me down, whispering stories, drifting off with Ryland’s smell all around me. He’s not going to remember nights like tonight, but I will. He’ll just grow up knowing he loves rainy nights, too, and the feeling of sliding into bed between cool sheets and warm blankets, listening to the rain and all her secrets.
