May
The best place in the world
March
Springtime in the park
February
Up on melancholy hill
There’s a plastic tree
Are you here with me?
Just looking out on the day
Of another dream
Well you can’t get what you want
But you can get me
So let’s set up and see, love
‘Cause you are my medicine
When you’re close to me
When you’re close to me
So call in the submarine
’round the world we’ll go
Does anybody know, love
If we’re looking out on the day
Of another dream
If you can’t get what you want
Then you come with me
Up on melancholy hill
Sits a manatee (love?)
Just looking out on the day
When you’re close to me
When you’re close to me
When you’re close to me

Girl Crush
Even though she’s a Scientology robot now and her hand looks demented in this pic, Katie Holmes is still darling and fab. Love the hair, the trench, and the nude pumps.
Her name is Kelly Clarkson
My sister’s company found a stray puppy outside their office, and named her Kelly Clarkson. I almost died when I saw the picture – what a cutie! Apparently she’s vicious to men, though. She’s since been taken to the animal shelter, and hopefully have found a nice home.
