Rain, Rain Go Away
Find peace in the rain. Have you ever thought about vacationing with your cat?

Godzilla visits NYC
Curiosity will conquer fear more than bravery will. ~ James Stephens The British Hubby and I were both home early yesterday for Godzilla movie night and the start of the snow apocalypse.
