Saw this quote over at Christine’s blog while I was checking out the Thursday Thirteens:

“Oh, the comfort, the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person; having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words, but to pour them all out, just as they are, chaff and grain together, knowing that a faithful hand will take and sift them, keep what is worth keeping, and then, with a breath of kindness, blow the rest away.”
-George Eliot

I long to be that kind of a friend, and to have friends like that, as well. This quote will be tucked away, safe somewhere, to always remember…and you, my friends, I hope you do the same

We saw a preview for this movie last night; here’s a synopsis:

Ben Stiller plays a night watchman at a museum of natural history; Dick Van Dyke gives him a warning about what may happen during the night. The movie also features Mickey Rooney, Owen Wilson, and Robin Williams at Theodore Roosevelt. There’s an awesome scene with a t-rex skeleton getting a drink of water…from the bubbler!

Looks like a pretty funny movie, I know I loved the preview and most of the people were silent through it (i.e., paying attention). Can’t wait for this one!

This is my herb garden: chocolate mint to the left, sage and regular mint to the right, with a little strawberry bush way at the end!

Wandering around Castle Island in Boston with Dad & Max one day, saw this ladybug sitting on a wild rose leaf and thought to myself, I HAVE to get a picture of this for my hairdresser, Q. She commented on it over in flickr yesterday, “I love this one can you print in a small print for me??? Thank u“.

But of course, Q!!! I do need to make an appt to get my hair colored soon
