The present I got Kenz for her birthday was accidentally shipped to me today, so now her present will be late. I was so annoyed it triggered what I like to call "baby rage"--an annoyance that progressively grows to fuming anger followed by a headache behind the eyes and sometimes the urge to burst into tears. (This episode also caused an email to be sent to the seller with a subject that basically said, "I'm slapping you with negative feedback, beyoch"--albeit professionally, of course). So after the present was re-shipped I decided to unwind by taking a nature walk and taking pretty pictures of pretty flowers. All the lilacs are in bloom and I feel like it's a special early birthday present to me, as lilacs are my favorite. (You know what else is a birthday present? Not living in Utah, where it tends to snow on my birthday.)
I feel so much better now. Now that I'm at one with nature, I might give a neutral rating instead.
p.s. Check out Kenz's guest blog...

i love the second pic. very cool. your baby rage is funny, and I can totally imagine it. me + gingie need to take a walk and take some pretty pictures. cheer up! put the puddin in the pop!
deep breaths work, too--oh wait, that might add to your rage--yoga made you sore last weekend!
I loved seeing everything in bloom in Portland. None of the lilac is out here, yet, but my peach tree has blossoms. It only it won't freeze now!
hmmm I have heard of this baby rage before. I think I would have raged and I am not pregnant...so Im sure it was much worse for you. :) Love you pictures. Way to be one with nature.
