Be glad of life because it gives you the chance to love, to work, to play, and to look up at the stars. Henry Van Dyke

How far away the stars seem, and how far is our first kiss, and ah, how old my heart. William Butler Yeats

Set your course by the stars, not by the lights of every passing ship. Omar N. Bradley

The stars shall fade away, the sun himself Grow dim with age, and nature sink in years, But thou shalt flourish in immortal youth, Unhurt amidst the wars of elements, The wrecks of matter, and the crush of worlds. Joseph Addison

What Happened

in 20 words or less. sorry for the blog re-birth and subsequent fake out. love is a real kick you in the pants er.

I didnt forget about you

Icicle

Icicle icicle
Where are you going
I have a hiding place
When spring marches in
Will you keep watch for me
I hear them calling
Gonna lay down
Gonna lay down

Greeting the monster in our easter dresses
Father says bow your head like the good book says
Well I think the good book is missing some pages
Gonna lay down
Gonna lay down

And when my hand touches myself
I can finally rest my head
And when they say take of his body
I think I'll take from mine instead

Getting off
Getting off
While they're all downstairs
Singing prayers
Sing away
He's in my pumpkin p.j.'s
Lay your book on my chest
Feel the word
Feel the word
Feel the word
The word feel it

I could have
I should have
I could have flown
You know I could have
I should have
I didn't go

Icicle Icicle
Where are you going
I have a hiding palce when spring marches in
WIll you keep watch for me I hear them calling
Gonna lay down
Gonna lay down

Stars

I have been noticing how bright the stars are lately- in part due to the fact that I have a sun roof now (and a vehicle). Also because I've been smoking cigarettes and I often stand outside at night in the freezing. Theres a ton of hot shots on flickr, but theyre all bitmaps or gifs and I don't know how to post them.

Anyways- we were in Charlotte for the past 2 days, and it felt good to get back today, clean my room, do laundry, make dinner, sweep up some dog hair and rearrange a bit. It seems everything I have here is organized now, and I played around in the dreamy back yard shed this afternoon- should be room for a few more boxes of kidnapped items from Nashville.

I had wanted to make one of those lists I've seen people do- 25 things to do before I'm 25- but I only have 4 months at this point, so I'll have to keep it easy. Maybe 15 is more feasible. Or 13 good ones. But first I should take a break from blogging for a few days. I don't like putting things up just for the sake of it, especially since this is supposed to be like my online sketchbook and not really worth all the time and energy for who knows who to not see. Never fear nobodys- I'll have plenty of time next week while I'm in Charlotte getting my face drilled.

Looking forward to making lists and crossing things off. Busy day running errands with Dad tomorrow. And I have a few books waiting for me to open them.

love

This Buds for You

I took a second to ponder the new year, and thought of flower buds. .

Airstream Dream

For we are transient beings.

passing especially quickly into and out of existence
passing through or by a place with only a brief stay or sojourn

affecting something or producing results beyond itself

New York in the Fall

Hope to see you, lover.
