goodbye, old friend

tonight we say goodbye to monk, after 9 years of goodness.

yes, maybe the series finale made me cry.

and yes, definitely i solved the case before anyone else (the handwipes thing... totally guessed it before natalie did).

and yes, this may have been the best show ever.

goodbye monk, we will miss you.

i wish there were 10 of you.

my little tree

i decorated my little tree today.

isn't it lovely?

it sits in the corner and makes everything glow.

this week i've been working on perfecting ambience. you know that wonderful feeling when you pick just the right music with the light and the mood?

tonight = twinkle light glow.carla bruni.tea.tissue paper flowers.

a letter to snow

dear snow,

i love you.

you make everything magical.

that is all.

(p.s. ... please stay awhile)

currently listening

i like: 1

i will be the gladdest thing under the sun!

i will touch a hundred flowers and not pick one.

i will look at cliffs and clouds with quiet eyes,

watch the wind bow down the grass, and the grass rise.

and when the lights begin to show up from the town

i will mark which must be mine and then start down.
