The drive home from Seattle yesterday was kind of AWFUL. It was either snowing or raining going over all three passes, sometimes hard enough that I honestly couldn't see more than 20 feet in front of me. So I was all tense when I got home, but a week with the girls was AWESOME and I miss them already. I HATE IT WHEN VACATION ENDS ( Read more... )

There are a RIDICULOUS amount of ruggedly handsome young men in my store today, maybe they're smoke jumpers. Or forestry majors. NNNGH, they're all so tall and solid.

What gives, Monday? This is GREAT.

AAAAAAH YOU GUUUUUUYS.

I cannot even TELL YOU how awesome tonight's Travis concert was. I CANNOT EVEN, THEY ARE AMAAAAZING. I have been waiting for YEARS for the chance to see them live and in concert, and I'm so happy I could cry. TEARS OF JOY.

The coolest thing just happened. It's not a common event here in Wales to have more than a dusting of snow, but it started around 8:00, and by 9:15 we actually had 2-3 inches sticking to the ground, and the entire Aberystwyth population crawled out of the woodworks and had a massive snowfest together in our streets and frontyards. Snowball fights ( Read more... )

We are currently on a massive Eddie Izzard kick in the North American sector of House Wales, and it is very good. I was watching Dress to Kill by myself, but as soon as Megan and Maja heard the dulcet tones of Izzard, they were in here watching along lickety split. Nothing like a lazy Saturday afternoon yelling "Cake or death?!" across the hall ( Read more... )

My muscles are all "nnarg" because of my sudden exercise splurge (swimming, yoga, running), my uterus is all "ngaaah!" because it's just that time of month, and my hair's all "sproing!" because of the sweat and rain, last night after yoga my ponytail was made of perfect ringlets ( Read more... )
