If...

In honor of the chill coming tonight...

Blood orange sorbetto, champagne chocolates, cashmere pajamas, and a flickering fire.

These are the things I’d have if the day were owned by me.

Whole grain oatmeal, bloated inbox, construction buzzing beneath me, and a flickering phone light.

These are the things I have because the day is not.

Hey...don't knock the oatmeal. That stuff tastes pretty awesome when you load it down with butter and brown sugar. *grin*. But I like your "in a perfect world" version better, though.

How do you like the gotham writing class? I'm thinking of giving it a go in the spring...

We are expecting snow tonight? Dang, it is so nice outside today albeit the wind.

The pajamas are the best. And the fire. I can get drunk just looking at a fire.

Thanks for the info! Do you ever run into the problem of wanting to tell people about you blog, perhaps a prospective boy, b/c you're proud of it? But it's like giving them key to your diary...I have found myself in this situation and now think I'm censoring my writing b/c of the audience. I'm worst that the FCC right?

Awww...you poor thing. But cant you take more control of the day with candles and soft music?

I'd take your perfect day in a heartbeat. Too bad that it is going to snow-I was really enjoy the weather.

Your blog is great! I really enjoy your writing. Go Duke!

Thanks for all the comments guys, I really appreciate your input and your support--and because the night flurries didn't stick (and who knows if they came at all) I revised this post!

PS I did take slight control of the day yesterday to at least ignore my blinking phone...
