Titanic came out when I was in 7th grade. My friend bought the soundtrack (on CD!!) and I wanted to make a tape of it for myself, but I decided the instrumental numbers were too boring to have all in a row when what I really loved was My Heart Will Go On.

Wellz... the cottage is great. So great. The bed arrived yesterday so I'm done sleeping on the floor. I can't describe how wonderful it is to open the french doors in the bedroom and look out at the nice big trees while sitting on an actual bed.
