vivid dreams...

i had a dream last night...one of those incredibly vivid dreams.

in it, i was walking around magdalena when i came across a little shop that looked interesting.
i walked in and suddenly the shop became HUGE (think barnes & noble size).
i was shocked that in 6 years i'd never seen this place.
the place was filled with all kinds of lovely books.
it smelled like books...looked like books. books! books! books!

"oh shoot!" i thought "Sed is soooo gonna lose business because of this."
even in light of that...i couldn't help but fall in love with this shop.

people were everywhere. some were reading...some were talking...there were a couple of kids banging board books against each other's heads...

the shop wasn't mexican at all...but i loved it.

anyway.
i woke up & thought what a lovely dream.

now i wanna buy hundreds of books & fill every nook and cranny of the café with hardback, spanish copies of my favorites.

Katie, I really love reading your blog. I love how you write! I enjoyed your last post, about your day off. I love days when I can travel on my own and am free to do things on my time and stop for coffee or waffle fries if I so wish :) That's the best. I am an extrovert and love to be around people, but sometimes, that alone time is exactly what I love most.

Also! Your dream reminds me of one of my all-time favorite movies, "You've Got Mail." Because she has that cute little bookstore and the big, Barnes & Noble type book store comes along and put her out of business. And in the end they fall in love. Awww.
