today is valentine's day

Today is a celebration of everything fun we've ever done together, all the hours spent doing secret stuff for each other, all the time we mourned the apartness, and the day when that ended and life began.

 All of today has been a surprise, and it's only halfway done! And since my camera died in Hawaii, only us two will see our day. Oh, wait. Phones. Maybe someone will get lucky. Maybe we'll just be selfish.

A secret for those who may be sad today: fairy tales really do happen. It's not fair to disregard a dream because it "only happens in the movies". Lies! Happiness every day is entirely possible and within everyone's reach. Just find it within yourself. It's kinda like Christmas, only it's real. Believe!

p.s. Jake, thanks.

every day is the best day ever.

Post 30:

As a married woman, I would like to say


Making decisions rocks on saturdays, sucks on mondays,

Returning wedding gifts does take all day,

Groceries are always more expensive than you think,

Boys do know how to cook,

Being a good housekeeper is SO overrated.

something happy, something nice.

In the kitchen, wading through a mound of sleep, I saw the sun fall on a basket of flowers.

My dad blames me for his newly discovered patch of white hairs.

I really need to go to Paris.
All the musicians seem to go there at some point.
People there sure know how to make nice videos.

I guess I've adopted somebody else's dream.

Rightfully?
Maybe not.
But I totally have.

Take Away shows are the polaroids of music videos, I think.

On a Certain Weekend,

many an interesting sight can be found.
