my baby just cares for me

listening to nina simone brag about her baby. it is part of a 'baby' themed playlist that includes songs by jenn grant and james taylor and belle and sebastian and roy orbison and also a mallpunx version of britney's masterpiece hit me baby one more time.

because i was unsure of how to spell britney, i just wiki'd baby one more time and found hit me baby! how did i miss this show? it sounds like american idol for bands from my childhood! i wonder if it's available on alluc.org? i love internet tv. i love tangents. i love the internet.

anyhoooo,

dil and i were talking about how happy we are with how life is going and how we are sure that things are just getting better as time goes on. optimism was never one of my strong suits, but i am awash in it these days... is it the sleep deprivation? the hormones? i don't think so. life is just really sweet. for me i think that the sweetness comes from my unexpected and cherished babies, my *blush* deepening love and respect for my husband, and also from a much greater contentment with my inner self. my thirties have been good to me so far, and when i look into the future, it is with a rosy glow. okay, maybe that part is the beer. guh, sentimental fool!

speaking of sentimentality, congratulations to sandra and jt and geetha and joris!!! yay love! yay marriage! next thing i know, y'all will be having baby showers!!! heeheehee!! yikes - it makes me giggle and use far! too! many! exclamation marks just thinking about it!!
