blarney stone

don't know what the heck the weather is trying to do today. this morning: snow on the ground. two hours later: no snow. then: sunshine. then: raindrops. then: random snowflakes. now: a quiet little wind-blown blizzardish thing is happenin' and who knows what else. welcome to iowa, gosh.

so i went to the goodwill store to look for 1) something for gretchen's birthday (since we ra gals decided we'd each get her a little fun somethin' from there and then put them all together as a big gift) and 2) travelish clothes. i guess i was just getting antsy to see what was there, i mean, b/c i really don't need travel clothes yet. well i tried a ton of stuff on but luckily only ended up buying a maurice's button-up, earth-tone-ish top (pink and greenish-- which will go perfectly w/ my green wrinkly pants) and a t-shirt that has a pic of a skier dude that says "oh, this is vail, IOWA!!" and then "we have the snow, but not the slopes"... i thought it was cute. :) b/c it's true... i've been dying to ski all winter long but there just hasn't been any opp to do so. i miss winter park, colorado.

ok, so after the goodwill store i ended up inside the old-fashioned bakery along the main drag. how this happened, i have no idea. and how a very delicious blarney stone ended up in a little white bag in my hand, and then eventually in my mouth, i also have no idea. all i have to say about this is grrrrr. leisha, you know better!

so now i'm back and i'm thinking that a nap sounds very enticing to me.

so, nap time. hope you enjoyed this very intellectually stimulating blog. plenty more where that came from, gosh.
