in the mean time, here are the things making me happy these days...

my brother chris, who just returned from a long

karine polwart's music, especially daisy, song #3

mom's new find. fit flops are in, crocs are out.

the bizarre emergence of the cicadas. watch this video to see what all the fuss is about.
