Just in time to pull me out of my Bad & Yucky depression, my kind and friendly mailman brought me a package.  Inside were the most fun and dreamy treasures to quell my bitterness towards Hershey for a minute.  Lori put on such a unique and creative swap who's theme was "Desert Island".  She sent me everything I could ever want to bring (on the condition that I would be rescued shortly, and there were no smoke monsters or Others on the island with me).  A parasol to keep my "way too much sun in my teenage years" skin safe, a fan to keep my hatred of intense heat at bay, a journal to write my escape plan from Ben Linus in, a novel and a trashy gossip mag to pass the time (when I worked at the hair salon I got a bit addicted to celebrity disasters.... don't judge),  chocolate fondue for dipping the pineapples I am am sure to find, flip flop ribbon- because it's fun, presents for Halley and Lucy because they will miss me and the cherry on top.......
Every stranded girl needs to look cute!  Who knows what I will make my clothes out of?  Whatever it is, they will match my new perfect, adorable, yummy, never want to take it off button necklace!  Seriously, look at this beauty!  It has all of my faves (notice the happy lack of purple) is just the exact length and I have been drooling over one on Etsy for months!   Thank you Lori!  You can come to my island anytime!  You truly spoiled me!

(Sorry about the random Lost references.  I am excited for the season finale tonight and I'm a dork.)
