You may have noticed the new look I've got going here. (That is, of course, in reference to the new background of le lucky ducky.) Yes, it did take me forever to compile the photos to create the new backdrop, but yes it was worth it.
Why, you might ask, is there a large picture of Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz filling up the upper corner? Well, I'll tell you.
STORY TIME
Once upon a time, I was an adorable little child (what happened?) who spent most days at my grandparents' house while my family was off doing exciting things. It was around the time I could breathe that I guess I decided it would be a good idea to watch "The Wizard of Oz" at least once every day. (This, of course, resulted in a great fear of any wind, from a breezy breeze to a gusty gust.) So I've definitely seen that movie at least 3,000 times and I love it as much today as I did then (although now I can handle windy days without crying).
*side note: I use parentheses a lot. Sorry.
Anyway, it's pretty much my favorite movie and I love the song "Somewhere Over the Rainbow." It reminds me that even though it might be pouring rain right now, that sometime the rainbow will appear and just over the rainbow are good things waiting to happen.
So now matter how bad life may seem now, just hang on, stay strong, and before you know it...
"I don't think we're in Kansas anymore!"
my favorite version of somewhere over the rainbow.

I really don't remember you spending quite that much time at Grandma and Grandpa's. But oh boy howdy do I remember the angst whenever it got windy. :)
