I hope you're having a good day with some fun, laughter, a glass of wine and Jimmy Buffet on the radio. Have a good year, SS, and may all things go well!

I have a new hobby. I don't know how far it will go--we shall see. It could very easily be an expensive hobby, so I don't really want to do that ( Read more... )

I saw this via develish (Thank you, Develish!) and now I want to get engaged if only to do this.

It also makes me want to go to Texas...

I must make a gratuitous icon post and point out this enchanting new icon that baranduin made and generously sent out into the world. I feel as if this enigmatic black puss is inviting or even challenging me to slip outside and explore the mysterious world under moonlight. And if I can hear that call and I slip out...
