VOTE KNOPE




my Parks & Rec/TV friends, 

my dear talented friend, Andrea, (you know that one friend that made all that beautiful and delicious food for my wedding? yah, that one.  she is a multi-talented wizard)  anyhow, she entered a poster contest for the show and got picked as a top 10 finalist. Leslie Knope herself emailed her to tell her about it!

She had no idea there was a voting component to it, but there is and it appears to allow repeat voting.  She'd appreciate any votes and any sharing/publicity! From what I understand the winning poster appears on the show somehow.

contest ends at 8am on feb 27th. 


please vote and repost and vote again!

quote of the day

i had just taken the 1st pregnancy test, and we were driving to costco to pick up some groceries.  i was just kind of sitting quietly, thinking and very seriously, my dearest husband says to me:

"well....i guess we're going to have to get married."  i burst out laughing.  i don't know why it was so funny to me, but it really was the perfect thing to say to me at that moment.  he followed it, just as serious as before, with, "you know.  it's just the right thing to do."

i adore that man.  he makes me laugh every single day, and my life is so much better and happier because he is part of it.

i'm sorry. but if norm abrams was in my neighborhood, and i was just walking by, i'd have to go meet him. yah, i'd go say hi, and talk to him about his woodshop.  --my dearest george  (oh, how i love that man.)
