Very true.
I think I met my soul mate…
There’s just no other plausible reason why this guy gets me the way he does.
Love is passion, obsession, someone you can’t live without. I say, fall head over heels. Find someone you can love like crazy and who will love you the same way back. How do you find him? Well, you forget your head, and you listen to your heart. And I’m not hearing any heart. Cause the truth is, honey, there’s no sense living your life without this. To make the journey and not fall deeply in love, well, you haven’t lived a life at all. But you have to try, cause if you haven’t tried, you haven’t lived.

First summer in AZ in two years…
Last year I was in France, and the year before that I was in Ireland… so I think I’m used to adventure just being handed to me. After all, there’s more to Arizona than just standing around and getting sunburnt!
Oak Creek Canyon
Antelope Canyon
Lowell Observatory
And there’s a ton more on the website provided… Time to make adventures happen!
Negative Nancy.
I can feel it: today is going to be a bad day. There’s no way to go around it really, it just has to happen. To begin, I’m sick— no matter what I do, my nose will not cease to be runny and I cannot stop coughing this horrible loud cough that really sounds like a bark. I’m always too hot and sweaty. It’s a mess. To top it off, I have a morning shift— which is just phenomenal. It’s too bright outside and the stupid birds woke me up— I really don’t understand why they feel the need to chirp all the time. And you know that your day is determined to be horrible when you buy yourself Starbucks to cheer yourself up, only to have it spilled all over you as soon as you decide to take a sip.
But then again, who likes a Negative Nancy? On the bright side, today is a beautiful day out— it’s hot and bright and summer. And morning shifts are generally pretty slow and short— and today is pay-day, which my bank account desperately needs! I am sick, but at least I’m still alive— I guess that’s always something to be thankful for. I guess that if any customers are rude today, I’ll just cough on them, no big deal. If the birds hadn’t woken me up, I probably would have been woken up by my alarm clock, which sounds like a bomb is about to go off, so I’m thankful for the birds…
Biggest Fear.
“What’s your biggest fear?” You asked me. My biggest fear is to lose sight of happiness. When you’re so displeased with life or reach a low point for some reason or another, sometimes it’s really hard to get back to normal and figure out how to be happy again. You get trapped in your own head, enveloped by your problems and sadness— and it takes a lot of strength to get out. I think that scares me more than any monster or spider or snake even.
Having a Coke with You.

This is one of my favorite poems, ever. It is the second time I post it, only because it’s so lovely and fits the mood completely at the moment. Maybe the reason that people nonsensically pursue romance is to get this addicting feeling— that amazing, wonderful butterfly effect… And I think the most incredible part of all that is that you can feel like that about one person, get completely brokenhearted and messed up, and then heal… and do it all over again.
You can write me down in history with hateful, twisted lies, you can tread me in this very dirt, but still, like dust, I’ll rise.

Just like the movie Up. I love when people prove that fiction can be reality— that dreams can come true. Plus, a flying house is pretty sick.
After watching two seasons of Jersey Shore…
Man, I have got to figure out something more productive to do with my summer… And GTL is just not going to cut it!
This makes me happy, and reminds me of Tweak. Such a good book.
Something to think about.
