Now you listen to me….
I don’t want any plastics, and I don’t want any ground floors, and I don’t want to get married-ever-to anyone!
You understand that? I want to do what I want to do, and you’re…and you’re….
It’s been a crazy month. Hell, it’s been a crazy year. I don’t even know where the time has gone. I need a vacation. I need a nap. I need a drink. I need, need, need something. But I’ll be damned if I can figure out what it is. Part of what I need is time. But time for what? I’m not sure. I need to dance. I need to disconnect. I need to touch and be touched. I need to sleep in. I need to read a good book. To write a good book.
I need to watch an old black and white movie. I need to go home and change into my jammies. I need to pour a cup of hot coffee, with cream and two Sweet and Low. I need to turn on my DVD player and listen to George Bailey sing Buffalo Gal to Mary. I need to get completely lost in a movie that always makes me long for Christmas. That makes me long for days when my kids were little and they still believed. When I still believed. I need to disconnect from my computer. Disconnect from the world and fall for a simple man like George. That’s what I need.
So tonight, I’ll go home and do all of those simple things. I’ll snuggle in with my Wonder Schnauzers and watch a simple man named George fall in love with Mary. It will bring me back to life. It will bring me back to me. It will bring me back to the time when I still believed. In life, love and magic.
Love this! Love the movie! Love the sentiment! Thanks, Emily
Thank you for the kind comment honey. Can’t wait to get home and watch the movie. I’d forgotten that it made me feel such joy.
Isn’t it wonderful to recharge your batteries!
It most certainly is.
We drink our coffee the same way. 🙂
Oh my dear Marian, I do believe we are more alike than you can imagine. 😉
only sugar, no cream or milk.
I drink dark roast. I need to lighten the bitter taste with a little cream. Caramel too. But only if it’s from Starbucks.
cafe verona is my favorite.
Christmas Blend. 🙂
bought that but it wasn’t as good this year. had to put in an extra scoop for it to taste right. i liked last year’s bag with the kids skating on it.
Very true. The Thanksgiving Blend was better. 😉
missed that
Too bad I drank all that I bought. I would have gladly shared. Wink, wink. Oh wait I can’t wink. My winker’s broken. I’ll just giggle instead.
winker broken?
I can’t wink. If I try both of my eyes close and I look ridiculous. Er, well, I look ridiculous most of the time anyway. But when I wink, I look even worse. It’s like I’m sneezing. Hahaahahah!
it’s not necessary to wink. i think a tongue licking an upper lip or teeth is sexier than a wink.
I think I can do that. Giggle.
I understand!
I knew you would. 😉
For me, it’s “Scrooged” that usually does the trick. Usually…
I like that one too. Bill Murray makes me laugh till I hurt. 😉
i really like this movie ^^
Me too. It’s most definitely one of my favorites.
