Today,
A kid was running behind his soccer ball kicking it the whole way.
My dad coming the other direction and pushing a baby carriage suddenly kicked the ball as he was passing by.
Me, my mom and my sister laughing: Oh my gosh, what the hell?
Dad: What? No one would ever let him run uninterrupted like that in a real match.
Don't worry the kid smiled, besides I'm sure he learnt something.

This I promise,
I’m going to try to keep this feeling, this spark. It’s been visiting on and off and I want it to stay; this great need for life.
I want to be filled to the brim, to the very edge, overflowing with adventures and love and words.
I want to see, touch, feel, dream, catch, run, dance, play, shout and scream.
I want to feel it all and regret nothing and be the pistol that only...
Words commingled and stunted.
A couple of days ago my grandpa called to talk to my mom but she was out with my dad for their anniversary. He calls me ‘love’ and I just noticed, I haven’t seen him since Christmas but my brain who can sometimes be THE EPITOME of slow told him that she wasn’t here and then promptly said “Okay, bye.” without saying I love you or anything. I was going to but then there was...

Random randomness,
My two favorite things in the english language are probably the comma “,” and the word “and” because with those two things you can keep a sentence going on forever, and I like that, that and I also like the period “.” because you can finish something all of a sudden and no one can tell you otherwise. BAM.
My first crush
was in 1st grade, his name was Raphaël and I was totally smitten. He was actually how I learned that ‘ph’ makes a fff sound. I still love the thought of him a little, I wish my first grader self had invited him over for diner or to play or something. I think I asked one of my girl friends to go tell him that I loved him once but I don’t think that counts.
Saturday night and Sunday early morning.
The air is warm, the night crazy, the morning ecstatic. I get home wound up and happy for some reason that I am sure is far above me. I spin around, once, twice, to make sure it’s real and as I breathe and stretch out I notice a slight ringing in my ears before hopping up the stairs, my feet kind of aching, gold flakes in a flutter and feathers in a flitter. My body is humming and like a bird my...
It's official
and I’m not sure how I feel about it.
The strong possibility of moving to the other side...
Crazy in both ways. Either excited crazy or crushed (angry or sad) crazy. I don’t even know. It’s my most popular answer this year, I don’t know. Maybe it will be good, maybe it will be bad or it could even end up being a mix of both. I really wish I had a some kind of a what if machine, to check the outcomes and choose the one I liked best. Because in both cases there are a...
Last night was awesome and I didn't even mind the...
Taking random pictures under an umbrella,
Standing up on chairs shouting out lyrics,
Running through the audience and stepping on some feet,
James Blunt sounds even better live.
