Yes, I was in a silly mood. I got this dinosaur change bank at an antique mart a few weeks ago and just decided I needed some pictures of it. Somehow that turned into this. :-)

One of my best friends just got a job and moved to Indiana, so I’m definitely going to have to go visit her there as soon as she’s settled.
I’ve never been to Indiana, so this will also help me meet my goal of visiting every state in the U.S.
I think it's time.

I’m going Monday to see about finding a kitty to adopt. Hopefully one that Sophie can get along with.
