Don't you dare look out your window, darling. Everything's on fire.

If you haven't heard Taylor Swift's song "Safe and Sound" from The Hunger Games soundtrack, you should most definitely look into it.  It's not even very Taylor-Swift-y (if you aren't a fan of her).  It's just beautiful.  I can just picture Katniss singing it to Prim.
My heart is heavy.  I thought I'd be hanging out with two of my most favorite people this weekend, but as luck would have it, I won't be.  And that is stupid.  But, like everyone else, I just keep thinking there HAS to be a reason their car broke down so far away.  Something divine needed them to be in Minnessota or not in Louisiana/Arkansas this weekend.  The good news is I've just made my priorities list for my 2012 tax return, and a plane ticket to St. Paul is #1 on that list.  Now I just have to wait paitently for LSU to send me that slip of paper so I can file.  Steph and Charlie, I'm coming for you whether you like it or not!

In case you're wondering what else is on that list (which, obviously, you're on pins and needles waiting to hear), #2 is to have my fuzzy Batman's yucky teeth cleaned, #3 is a weekend pass to Jazz Fest to see John Mayer AND THE BEACH BOYS and Trombone Shorty all in one glorious place (that is, if I can get someone to go with me [ahem,Bethany]), and if by some miracle I have enough money left, I'll buy a ticket to The Hangout (once the lineup is released).

Tonight, I'll get together with my ladies and drink wine and watch Bridemaids and eat cauliflower-crusted pizza and cry about how Stephanie's not here.
