it's raining and as i was telling fatima on msn, i enjoy it. my exact words were "i likes it."

i'm feeling good right now. i don't know why. probably the monday high, even though it's tuesday, it should rightly be a monday. i like the coolness that the rain brings. i like archie's purrs as he stares at the computer monitor and explores red betty's drawers. i like the peaceful feeling of my home when elicia's napping on the couch and the rain is dripping outside and there's no tv on and no lights either.

tomorrow i'm making buttermilk cinnimon buns at work. it's baking wednesday with wendel. last week we made rice krispy squares with chocolate chips and chocolate drizzled on top. it may have been our most popular item yet and it was so easy.

mr. bunker is bored so i put him on my shoulder and he's now perched there purring up a storm. i love him. he's fighting with my braid right now.

i feel like i may love everyone right now, but that may just be because i'm not being faced with the reality of any hard to love situations at this moment.

i just woke up elicia from her nap like she asked me to. i had to call her three times, and she woke up with a start "what?!" then she begged for ten more minutes. "only ten minutes, i promise!" sure, what do i care? i'm not in charge.
