a long, long time....

so it has been... there's been a lot on my mind and i haven't been able to put it into words.... i still don't think i can, but here are some random tidbits from my life.... i've noticed on occasion that the kids at work tend to fall asleep faster at nap time if we're playing classical music rather than any old music. so i brought in my prince caspian soundtrack (which is not classical, but it's wordless....plus, i really like the songs at the end of it). this was a bad idea, because it made me want to watch the movie. if you've been reading for awhile, or if you know me, then you know the my love for narnia. and after i saw caspian in theaters (3 times....it's a long story), i wrote this about it. i wasn't a fan at first, but it grew on me. anyway, i finally went and bought it. and watched it the first chance i had. i just love it. everytime i watch or read the movies or books, i find something new to learn. it speaks to me in a new way everytime.

two new things i really like

ok, so the other day, i was hanging out and i got a text from my friend anna b. it said nothing other than "naked mole rat gets dressed you should read it". interesting....and a definite way to get someone's curiosity piqued. i, of course, looked it up and found that it is a picture book by mo willems (the guy who wrote the pigeon books, which are great as well). tonight at barnes and noble i went to find it and there was only one copy. so i read it. and then i bought it. it's wonderful! it's about a naked mole rat who loves to wear clothes. all the other mole rats are disgusted by this, so they go to grand-pah, the oldest, wisest, most naked mole rat there is to see what he says. he issues a proclamation and life for the mole rats is never the same. but it's better than it was before. it's such a cute book. please check it out! the second thing i really like is bride wars . i know, you're probably thinking, "of course you liked it brooke. it'
