WORLDS ARE FORMING

Two of my favorite people ever.

These two (and their mom, my sister) came to visit me this weekend.  Hooray for hearing laughter and "Uncle Josh" in my apartment all weekend. 

The History of Love by Nicole Krauss.

Upon the recommendation of a friend, I needed to pick up a book (a novel even!) that wasn't explicitly Christian or religious. 

SO.  I picked up Nicole Krauss' The History of Love.  She's the wife of Jonathan Safran Foer (whom I love...he wrote Everything is Illuminated, Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close)...their styles are similar AND different.  I enjoy it so far! 

Anyone read The History of Love?  If so, what did you think?

Good Morning Vietnam! Dead Poets Society! Mrs. Doubtfire! Patch Adams! Jumanji! Good Will Hunting!

In this new era...every third day or so.

"Josh.  Has anyone told ever told you that you look like...?"

"Yes."

Sigh.  My curse.

WHERE SHOULD I TRAVEL NEXT SUMMER?!

Because I have to save, I am dreaming about where I want to try to travel next summer.

Italy (Cinque Terre, Tuscany, Rome, etc)?  Scotland (Iona, St. Andrews, etc.)?

So...your job. I've never been to Europe before, and want to make the most of it.  Two or three weeks.  As cheap as possible.  Where would you recommend that this novus traveler travel?  What are your thoughts?

Self-care?

I'm big into self-care.  Just haven't had much in the past few weeks because of all the busyness.  SO.  Today.  I am getting an hour long massage.  THAT, my friends...is self-care.
