I lied. Tomorrow I'll put up some valentines pictures. I just don't feel like turning on my computer. I use matt's computer when I use one at all. Mine is so slow that it's annoying to use. Well, once it gets going it's good and all, but the start up takes forever. Boo.

Anyways, I'm real tired of my nose being swollen and sore. It's about time for that to stop. I've even been using the puffs plus lotion. My poor nose has just had to much the past week. I think I'm over the worst of it though. As long as some kid doesn't sneeze all over my face again when school starts back up. And yet, I'm going to miss these kids so much next year.

Sometimes I forget how much I love my wedding ring. Since my friend got engaged this weekend, I of course looked at her pictures. Her ring is gorgeous. Very elegant. Then, I looked at mine on my finger. I like to think of mine as being classic, simple, and lovely. All words I myself aspire to be someday. I love my ring set and how perfectly they go together. And how perfectly they go with my left hand. They don't look out of place or bulky or fake. They just look pretty and real. When I first saw this ring style I knew it was what I wanted. I wanted the smallest one because I have small hands and fingers. Plus I don't like spending to much on jewelry. But Matthew bought me a ring set with a greater diamond weight. It is just lovely. Perfect. I considered doing a simple band, maybe with diamonds in it, but liked the idea of two separate rings. Of course, I got mine soldered together before the wedding, but the look is still the same. Anyways, all this to say, that I often forget how beautiful my ring is. I am so lucky to have a husband who pampers me so. Of course, after watching blood diamond (after my rings were purchased unfortunately) I never wanted a diamond anything! But I'm glad I have my diamonds now. So extravagant. Lovely. Classic. Simple. Love.

I want to be part of Dragon Army. Seriously, how amazing would that be? Being a child genius. Working on war tactics. Becoming the hope for the future of humanity. But of course, we all know that it wasn't all fun and games. Not even close. But to be a part of it. Kind of makes me wonder what history is being made right now that we won't realize was such a big deal until hundreds of years have passed.

Dragon Army. What a great game.

That last sentence, mixing two of my most favorite stories in the world together. That's how I like it.
In summary, go read a good book. It's amazing how much more of life you understand after reading. So many popular phrases or references, ever wonder where they come from? Pick up a classic book or some old historic fiction. It tells wonders.

Ok. Hopping off the soap box. Basically, reading is good for the mind. The end.
