I told you I had a Song of the Month for March already! And the wind is currently rattling and howling around my balcony doors, so why put it off?
This song/poem has been in my life for-ev-er. Since before I was born. So it's not surprising that it's my mum's Song of the Month too! This song talks about every month of the year, so I think about it a lot, but here's the tricky part: My mum and I can't even think of the word March without our subconscious minds adding "in March the wind blows down the door and spills my soup upon the floor. It laps it up and roars for more! Blowing once, blowing twice, blowing chicken soup with rice!"
... you think I'm joking, don't you? But every blasted time. Next time you see me, casually bring up the word "March" and wait for the pause :P

I slacked off this weekend and read the entire second book in the Twilight series. Oh dear. I am officially obsessed. It's taking all of my self-control to not rush out into that howling gale and buy the third book, because if I do I'll just end up moody and resentful at work. ("stupid work... cutting into my perfectly good reading time." *grumble, grumble*) I haven't seen the movie yet, but I bought the soundtrack and have this song basically on repeat. Seriously. I drove up and back from Dad's the other night, and probably listened to this song 40 times, all told. Sad, sad, Gillian. The music video is way too creepy, though, so I'm going to embed a "Twilight tribute" video instead. Cuz Robert Pattinson as a vampire is hawt. There, I said it. And I'm not sorry.
Urgh, Sunday. Have a good week, everyone!
Love,
Gillian

Claire and I watched the Chicken Soup with Rice video yesterday! Well, I watched, and she kept repeating "Wild Things Are! Wild Things Are!". She wasn't so thrilled with chicken soup. :)
P.S. I think the Serta sheep bought tap shoes to increase their marketability since people don't need to count sheep to sleep anymore. ;)
P.P.S. Until you called, I didn't realize I'd been out of the loop for so long! I checked my email yesterday and there were about 30 messages there!
