this blog made me laugh.

when I lived in Spain my friends & I would hold "mullet spotting" contests.

it was all fun and games until my friend dated one of them (see photo).

after a month and a half I finally got up the nerve to ask this foreign man
for a chance to give his hair a glory tug.

my friend still brings it up, calling me the "bane" of her "zaragozan romance."

It was so worth it.

things to be cheerful about:

• crisp boyfriend-sweater-weather.


• mum & pops visiting this weekend and our pending san francisco trip.


• steaming lemon tea w/dab of honey.


• sampson’s day of primping & pawing .


• new loves and old loves and all the loves in between.
