a day in the life (etc)

This is where I work.

Sam got a parking ticket.

My best friend Elyse is the most incredible human being (sappy sappy sappy) I love her.  

This was my favorite song a few years back.

"Let's undress just like cross-eyed strangers
This is not a joke, so please stop smiling" (at 1:44)

greatest lyrics because... they make me smile.

and then when he says, 'please stop smiling', I smile even more.

maybe you have experienced this too.

I took too many pills this morning...

when this happens I become a little bit loopy. Under the spell of 'go go go' or 'slow slow slow', I don't know which one it will be this time (it's for anxiety in case you were concerned). The house is quiet. Garret went to Vegas this weekend and Milo... who knows. Probably sleeping or in Orem. She is like a cat. Literally. Elyse is at work (poor baby) and me? It's my day off. I'm choosing to spend it briefly in meditation and then in cleaning. The Beehive Tearoom (where I work) did the whole Sundance thing and now it's time to sleep for eternity. If I don't wake up (which I always imagine will happen) please watch out for the glass on my floor and excuse my dirty laundry.


Last night I stepped on a piece of glass and it went straight into my foot. My feet were too numb from work that I didn't notice for a minute. This reiterated something life has taught me, don't wait for horrible things to happen to create a change. Make a little change when you can before anything pressing or hurtful happens. 

a brief play by play:

I've been watching documentaries lately:

The movie above taught me to be more like my child self. Run through the streets, jump like a frog (that might have been my favorite part, how did he do that on his knees? at 13:39), not know the day of the week, etc.
