Okay so the sky is blue, and I can see the clouds. But the sun went down over an hour ago and the streetlights are on. And I think Id say it were noon if the moon shone brighter.
So I’ve realized that the end of summer love and the abrupt need for mittens aren’t the only things I need to get used to as October decides to come around

me:

my shoulder hurts from banging into the door frame one too many times
i like to know what that button does
sometimes i sing off key
on -- the french one
never 256
a loop at the end of my braid
one wheel
that tree on my front lawn that wont grow
a list like this
special words
a trip with an unknown destination
phone calls from those people who never call
singular sometimes and plural sometimes
quote on quote
i dont know
mittens
the absense of rings on my fingers
a rose garden
an empty corner
a full corner
5 senses
when people notice things that i didnt
homeroom just cause everyone else hates it, but im really not contradictory
squinted eyes
brown and green, but why dont i like turtles
freedom
grandmothers and rocking chairs, especially the one at mcmichael
antiques
class, not the school one
commas
round things that become "unrounded"
little containers
unknown reasons and reasons that are made up when its over
hidden thoughts, and metaphors, not simile
mistakes

i want to make lists
i want to live without a watch
i want to laugh until im sick
i want to like napolean dynamite

i want to hug a tree in protest against...something
i want to never use capitals

ive got this feeling i can't get rid of and im not sure if i want it.
its like someone's holding something just beyond your reach.
have you ever watched the moon?
thursday night: the moon was foggy, the clouds do that sometimes, the weather was the same as my mood. what's that called again?

what made my day: the red and green story




that's rather pathetic..(not the story..the creation of the day)

the sound of music
la mélodie du bonheur

“do, le do, il a bon dos
ré, rayon de soleil d’or
mi, c’est la moitié d’un tour
fa, c’est facile à chanter
sol, la terre où vous marchez
la, l’endroit où vous allez
si, c’est siffler comme un merle
et ça nous ramène à do, do, do, do…”

three worst times to have the hiccups:

1. when making a speech
2. when cutting a diamond
3. when in church
   

happy birthday kathleen!!

fas·ci·na·tion:
1. The capability of eliciting intense interest or of being very attractive.
2. The state of being intensely interested or attracted: listened in fascination.
3. An intensely interesting, attractive quality or trait.

i am fascinated by water.
--------------
how often does this happen?
how many times is everything going to occur over again and turn out sour?
how come i give the right ideas away and keep all the wrong ones?
how do i have it in me to ask all these questions that all have no meaning but one?

i like italics

today is the first day of the rest of your life

procrastination is the art of keeping up with eysterday

dont become so well adjusted to your culture that you fit right in without thinking. instead, fix attention on God, you'll be changed from the inside out.
