I'm not saying this bc I hate blind people....

Finally caught up on some American Idol. Hollywood week- blind kid suuuuuucks with his piano. I'm all about kids with disabilities being given the same opportunities as kids without... but not through some misguided Affirmative Action.... kick the blind kid off!

Heya folks!

Valentine's Day got a WHOLE weekend this year!!! Considering a) I haven't had a 'real' Valentine in like 5 years and b) Will and I haven't had two whole days where we both were off work and had nothing to do since we started dating- this rocked my world!!

With a series of small, cheap dates and spending time with friends and family... it was the most relaxing time I've had in quite some time! Will got me lilies- my favorite flowers :) This makes me SUPER happy!

We also got to watch 30 min of what may be the greatest prize possession I now own. Apparently, about 20 years ago (oh.my.god.... saying that out loud makes me feel VERY old), my second cousin filmed a family gathering after a funeral. My uncle, who owns a videography company, remastered it for everyone for Christmas. Me, being the lazy ass I am, just got it from my mom. It was a precious (and solitary) piece of footage of my precious sister at 5- and a snapshot of my adoration for my grandfather. I sat and watched 30 minutes and sobbed. Good tears.

First real Valentine's Day in 6 year. Love the one you are with.
