I'd Like to Take a Moment

...to profess my undying love to my pal Dixie. Boy, does this girl get it. She really does. When someone's really awesome, I tend to say, "Oh, he's a peach!" While that's a fairly well-used term of endearment, I don't think I ever used it until I met Dixie. So when I call someone a peach, it's because they've managed to reach the pinnicle of all that's great - Dixie Peachitude. Unless I'm snarling it sarcastically. Then it means something else entirely.

I'm outta here for a few days. Gots me a room at an undisclosed hotel where I'll be staying until I decide I like human beings (Dixie notwithstanding). The breaking point: my non-napping toddler came thisclose to walking into a pile of dog vomit and my head exploded. It's time to take myself away before they come to take me away.

In case I'm still in the fetal position on Sunday (highly likely), please take a gander at the Metro section of the Dallas Morning News' Sunday edition. There's going to be an article in the Metro section in which I rant a bit about people leaving their holiday decorations up to long.

No shuffle for me today. I think Dixie shuffled enough for all of us, don't you?

Wench. Make me cry, why dontcha.

Spoil yourself. Nap a bunch, knit, take showers that last until you're shriveled. Just be good to yourself in general. Take a nap for me too.

I loves my PoppyDawn.

Well, I'm going to jump on the DixiePeach bandwagon because I think she's the coolest. My life was truly enriched when she came into it.

Have a wonderful weekend. Get lots of rest and have a little fun, too.

Let me know if you need an undisclosed coffee and pillow mint delivery! I'll even wear a maid uniform!

Joining in the Dixie lovefest, she truly is something else and I say that with a lot of respect and admiration (and some secret stalking, but she knows I'm harmless LMAO)

Take care of yourself Poppy chere and forget everyone and everything for a while. Sending you relaxing centering thoughts.
