You caught me. Drinking // water. Watching // Meredith play with toys on the ground. Reading // A Turn of the Screw by Henry James. Wanting // a new computer. (For any rich benefactors out there: a MacBook Pro, please.) Thinking // about what is making Meredith fuss right now. Creating // a really cheesy, flowery cross stitch of our wedding date.
