your fight, is my fight.

It's prettier here than I could have ever remembered.

I want to bottle up fall & save it for a miserable, freezing January day.
But really, I would just prefer it to be fall all the time.

It makes me want to be outside all.the.time.
morning, afternoon, and especially at night, when all the leaves are blowing & it is cold enough to remind me of Christmas.

fall reminds me of my mom's apple cider (with oranges!), scarves, school, holidays and love. so much love. in the end, I know it is such a great blessing that it is fall right now. I feel (slightly) less stressed just because I can walk outside at 2 a.m. & think. or not think. they both work :)

song of the weekend: silly justin bieber songs. but I love them. haha

something blue.

I just watched the latest "The Office" and I have a few confessions (& warning: this post is a little sappy and maybe even cliche. ok).

1) never gotten into the office. pretty big declaration around here, I know. People, epecially those in Utah I feel, LOVE the office. I watched the very first season when it very first started airing with sam, but since I haven't really wanted to watch it.

2) I'm so in love with Jim. I'm sure every other girl probably is too, but really. after watching this episode I remembered how much I love his character. and his smile.

3) yes ... I shed a few tears in this episode. I don't know if I can explain why, except that unlike many of the chick flicks I've seen lately, this love story seems so real.



and I know I will be happy getting married on a boat, in plane, on the beach, or in the rain, as long as my husband has the same look Jim does in the last scene (the best one is in the episode ... so watch it!) :)













the song of the day is It's My Life/Confessions, a Glee mash-up.

i'm in a mood & that means i must be extra tired.

dear body,

i have too much to do, not enough time and an extra insane schedule this week. thus, i will be unable to allow you the luxury of being sick in any manner.
tonight, however, will be your freebie night as i can see you're already taking it for everything its worth. symptoms such as a migraine (nothing new, but that's a whole different blog), fever, cough, and especially awesome sore throat are inexcusable and should be gone immediately.
maybe next week when i don't have my days planned by the hour we can revisit this whole sick business? i know how fun it can be.

love,
leah

ps. props for keeping up this week though!

song: vanilla twilight, vanilla twilight, vanilla twilight.
