Mmm Montana

I saw Brokeback Mountain last night. First let me say what a wonderful love story and an amazing movie it is. If you have seen the movie, you have seen the beautiful scenery. It made me realize how much I love the mountains. I always thought of myself as an ocean girl, but now I think I am equally a mountain girl and need to find a place with both. I have always loved the mountains, my sister has lived in Montana for a long time, but it wasn't until this summer that my heart went to them. I don't know if it was the experience, or the people I was with or just that I lived in them for 3 months, but I love them more than ever. I was just in Montana over Christmas, but I already want to go back and be among the mountains. The music they played in the movie was Montana music, at least what I think Montana music is. With the music and the scenery, I would forget that I was watching a movie. And for a moment, I was there, lost in the montains, back in Montana. Mmm mountains... Mmm Montana.

They must need nannies there too! And teachers, for that matter. Let's make the move!

Wouldn't it be nice to have all three of us in one place? We should really do it.

Except you just bought a house, so that idea wouldn't work so much. Oh well.

COME ON IN THE WATER'S WARM.... really, there's enough room in this Big Sky for all of us _docs. Well, maybe not ALLLLL of us.

Great entry Cass. The mountains speak to my ever-loving adventurous soul every day. I feel lucky.

There is enough room for sister docs and parents doc though! Wouldn't it be great for all of us to live so close to each other once again?

"Absence makes the heart grow fonder"

I was always a bit skeptic of this phrase. How can being away from a person make you fonder? With time, you will slowly start to forget the sound of their laughter and the scent of their hair. You will forget the way they dance and the way they like their toast. Sure, when you see them again, when they laugh or dance, all those things come rushing back. Being away may make you yearn for them, but you no longer know them as well as you used to. At least that is what I used to think. I should have know this phrase was true since whenever I would see my sisters again, it was like no time had passed. I don't know what it was that made me realize all that I took for granted, maybe it is being away from home for so long or my travel mishaps or my friend's car accident or maybe just that I am getting older, something made me see how I took everything for granted in my life before I came here. It was so easy, I could go up the stairs or across the hall or get in my car and spend a day ...

I Heart The Office!

Image
My sister introduced me to the television show The Office . And I heart it. I saw Seasons 1 and 2 on dvd in the past week (I watched all of Season 2 between last night and today). The only problem now is that they are half way through Season 3, so I have missed several episodes and it won't come out on dvd until at least this summer... hmm, problem. But you want to know the one thing I heart even more than The Office ? Jim Halpert/John Krasinski (character/actor). He is on the show and I have a huge crush on him. I know what you are saying, you are 25 years old (turning 26 in 2 1/2 months) and crushes on famous people at this age is a little weird, and usually I would agree. It has been many years since I have had a crush on a star. But Jim/John is so an exception. In fact, if I could find a real life guy here in Minnecrap that looks like Jim/John, makes the same facial expressions, has the same sense of humor and is as nice, sweet and kind as him, so basically exactly like Jim/J...

All you need is love?

This is a question people have asked for a long time. Is it true? Is love all we really need? I think it would depend on who you ask. When it comes to young children, love is all you need. You know your parents love you and spend time with you, that is what is most important to a child. You don't understand the importance of money or work or health, all that matters is love. Maybe that is what is so appealing about childhood, why we would all do anything to go back, because we were innocent and love really was what made the world go round. As an adult, I now see things differently. Love isn't all there is, we need so much more. Some would say that makes me cynnical, but I am not. I want to believe that love is all we need and for the most part I agree with that statement, however I see that there is a lot more that goes along with love. As a parent, your role is not only to love, but to protect, comfort, support, provide, but common sense says that those things automatically go...
