Yesterday I indulged in some delightful time on my computer. I’m on my computer all the freakin’ time, and a lot of times I want nothing more than to NOT be on my computer. But I usually feel rushed or guilty and I skim things and try to consume a lot at once.

Andy’s been out of town again at a conference in Stockholm. (Coincidentally, my parents were also traveling, in Santa Cruz, CA, and my mom was texting me beautiful pictures of the ocean and between the two trips I felt a little bummed sitting on my couch on Saturday. But such is life.)

How do you eat your trail mix? I have a tendency to pick everything apart and eat like things together. But maybe there’s something to be said for eating an whole handful all at once.

The most expensive address stamp I’ll ever own!
