it's the little things pt. 2

This is my friend Lily. She is wearing my fedora. She is super cool. Sadly she is not my dog. But we've had some good times together. Right now we are driving from Calgary to an unnamed island on the coast. Summer is coming to an end and this makes me sad. And so I look at this picture of Lily and I smile. It really is the little things.

I'm moving to Cape Cod ...

I finally got around to watching the bachelorette last night. There were of course 4 hometown dates, but the only one that matters was visit to Cape Cod to meet Chris's family. I think my feelings are best explained through the 6 texts I sent in quick succession to RB (who unfortunately missed the episode):

• You would die seeing Chris's hometown date. He is so cute. Black lab (named Jenny), rainy walk along the beach, beautiful New England house with porch. OMG.
• His brothers and their wives/girlfriends are awesome too. They all love wine.
• How sad he is that his mom isn't around to meet Ali, but how happy she would be to see him happy. His dad cried when they left.
• The way his jeans fit him OMG. And then he kissed her neck. And then he grabbed it and went in for the kiss. Am DYING.
• If she doesn't pick him, her heart is made of stone.
• Will you come visit me when I move to Cape Cod?

To which she replied "yes I will come visit you, if only to sleep with your husband."

Always nice to know you can count on your friends ...
