you made me forget my dreams.

On days like today, when I am not in a very good mood, I like to nap and go grocery shopping and pet the M on Emo's forehead.

I like this picture of me too:

You made me forget my dreams
When I woke up to you sleeping
We had peace for a night at least
But the trouble starts today
This morning you'll say
I'll see you sometime, maybe and I
Fall back to uneasy sleep

journaling

I have done a little more than this in my new paper journal, but I liked the way these two pages turned out enough to share:

Just actual writing and some flowers. I liked the way it looked and the way the colors look in real life. I pretty much posted the exact same thing here a few days ago, just without the images.

Good luck reading this one on the larger sizes...it's horribly blury so I could get decent color. It's just a mini-story called "The Sixth Burrow" from "Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close" by Jonathan Safran Foer. Amazing book, amazing amazing amazing. I loved this so much. Everyone needs to read this book now.

Oh!! And Michael's mom found my first copy of "The Perks of Being a Wallflower" by Stephen Chbosky, that Michael thought he had lost. Kim has my new copy, but now I can have one on hand always, and pass the other around. I love the underlines and highlights from everyone, and I can't wait to re-read it.

Thelma it is.

As promised, a picture of the new car.
Thelma & I


I have two goals that I did not accomplish with Louise:
1. Keep this one cleaner.
2. Take more pictures.

We are only two days into our relationship, and a guy named O'Neil hit her in the parking lot during the movie with my mom. He left a note and he was very apologetic, and he is handling it very well (set up the claim for me, etc), but WTF??
Am I a magnet??
Day two, Damage


I think this was just bad luck though, mostly because I hadn't named the car yet. I decided on Thelma, because, well, Louise was Louise. It just makes sense I guess.

too much

When my cat looks at me like this, sometimes it feels like my heart is going to burst.

I had a very lazy Saturday, and it felt wonderful. I am about to go to sleep, and then I will wake up to see a movie with my mom at what most people call "lunchtime". Michael and I watched Deep Impact today, and it was horrible, but I am a big wuss so I cried near the end of it, when the newly blind astronaut can't see his baby before he dies. Bahhhh.

I liked the way the sun looked so much that afternoon, I stopped on my way in the gate at home to take a picture. I like how the sun looks like it is both in front of and behind the power lines.
