of swell seasons, ladybugs and cat farts.

Currently I am obsessed with Strict Joy, the album, by The Swell Season, Glen Hansard & Marketa Irglova of Once fame. The style of this album really reminds me of another of my favorites, The Divine Comedy by Milla Jovovich, hauntingly poetic and never failing to strike a chord somewhere deep within me. Plus The Swell Season reminds me of that swell season I spent abroad in Ireland. It feels like so long ago, and, just like yesterday.
Another one of my favorites just shuffled on the iPod...Gnarls Barkley.

Other than that, a ladybug is crawling on me right now. They are everywhere. I don't mind them though. I think it's because they have polka-dots. How could you be annoyed at something so cute? I saved one in the shower the other day from drowning and put it in my plants. Couldn't say I'd do the same thing for an ant. And definitely not a spider. But I don't generally feel comfortable being in the presence of a spider, especially in the shower. There was that one time I was washing my hair and looked up only to see a spider dangling on its web right above me...and I freaked out. Like, fell out of the shower freaked out.

I'm glad I have time for caffeine (my new addiction) before work this afternoon. And music and a blog update, cuddle time with the cats...even though one of them farted after plopping down right next to me. Gross, like a cat fart.

On that note, that's about all I got.
