day 4 and i'm still standin'

what do i really really want? i really really want more days like today...

days in which we find the hurricane has passed us over in favor of
becoming a post tropical storm...

days in which we sleep in, and then have a little early morning fun
that requires keeping the bedroom door locked
for just a bit and muffling all sound...

breakfasts of maple flavored bacon and crispy crunchy potatoes...

a nap on the couch tucked in my S on one side
and 12's supremely soft blanketon the other, bare toes smooshed
into orange and pink stripey softness...

kids playing happily together upstairs for at least an hour and half
before arguing...

supper at my mom and dad's,
giggling at my dad's latest attempt at leaving a phone message
on his answering machine which turned out unbelievably robotic...

then the four of us crunched up on one couch
laughing hysterically as *28 people get
bonked with a ball before the wiener dog fits through the fence...

sweet kisses before bed.

(*america's funniest home videos, of course...heh)
