happy birthday to me!

It's my birthday!!! "Welcome to the magical world of 23," said my friend this morning, and so far it has been very magical; I woke up and ate a lot of bacon.

My father very kindly flew down to Virginia on Wednesday to road trip back to MA with me, so I got home just in time to celebrate with my family.

crossing the Mason-Dixion Line!

What was I doing five years ago today on my 18th birthday?

...eating cupcakes while wearing a VIRGINIA sweatshirt! what a premonition for the future!

I hope everyone has a lovely weekend celebrating me, eating Mexican food, and spending time with people they love

Winter again..

How was last Sunday 74 degrees... It's 19 degrees right now and the snow is coming down fast. Luckily I am inside at work with a giant sweater and my knitting to keep me warm! Though it's nothing like woods hole:

Buddha is buried in my mom's back yard

we in Virginia are still expected to get 8 inches today and tonight. Fingers crossed we get snowed in and I can skip work tomorrow!! 

Today has been pretty slow, probably people are inside staying warm! I read this book today, The Age of Miracles by Karen Thompson Walker. I really enjoyed it, obviously it was a quick read. This novel is smothered of the world as we know it sort of story, but much more practical and realistic than a lot of what's out there. Told through the eyes of a middle school girl, Miracles follows what happens when the earth's rotation begins to slow. It was very interesting and also a little sad, I recommend it if you are not prone to anxiety!

Back to all anyone can talk about, the snow!
