my heart will be blessed with the sound of music, and i'll sing once more...!

i used to have a really boring desk


but i just found one of my favorite things to keep on it!



now when i'm working and get bored or frustrated, i can just look up and begin to hear "the happiest sound in all the world"! (it actually says that on the poster!)

i don't think i'll ever get over the sound of music, and the drape dresses, and how badly i wanted to be sixteen-going-on-seventeen, and that year i made malti make me pink lemonade every day because that's what the baroness drank! (god alone knows what she put in it to make it pink!) o thank you julie andrews for making me feel like the eighth von Trapp kid every time i slipped in the worn-out vhs, for giving me singing lessons, for making me fall in love with stiff captains when everyone else was into prince charming, for making me have confidence that spring will come again, and for teaching me the word "flibbertijibbet"!

and new poster, thank you for reminding me i STILL have not tasted crisp apple strudel. but whenever i do, i just KNOW it'll become one of my favorite things.

odelay odelay odelay hee hoo!
