another positive list

These always make me feel better.

Here we go. A short list of things that make me happy:

Pretending to be a lead singer in Rock Band.
Car dancing to FOB.
John Mayer, always, every day of my life.
Long distance friendships.
Facing things alone.
Lydia Earhart.
Radiohead tickets - yep, I got some!
Manicures.
Touch screens.
Tuna salads.
American Idol.

Movin' On

That's what I'm doing. I have to. It was a good try, I suppose. But apparently not enough, huh?

Deep breaths. It'll get easier each day.

I got this again, boo.

Amy Winehouse: Yes, Yes, Yes

I don't care what Natalie Cole says. I think Amy Winehouse deserves her Grammys, dammit.

That album is amazing, and if you don't own it, then go buy it. And if you can't afford it, I'll burn it for you. I love it. I just hope she doesn't kill herself before I have the chance to see her in concert.

P.S. I miss KLR's face more than Amy misses her Blake incarcerated

be here now.

I miss Sunday afternoons, laughing, talking, and bonding.

I miss COL high scores, sleep overs, Jim Miller Road chants, understanding, top 5 lists, talking points, face, love, tapes, and MOS cuddling.

I miss Old Navy trips, monkey gossiping, wedgies, plate tectonics, park days, editing, and candle lighting.

I miss tickle, tickle, outfit planning, shrimp busters, lunch dates, Weeds, sies, house hunting, car dancing, and exceptional friendship.

I miss John Mayer pump up sessions, room to room IM conversations, dance parties, Conan, and cough syrup chugging.

I miss road trips, pj pants borrowing, lazy mornings, DVD marathons, Saturday Sundown lunches, dancing, late night conversations, lip synching, and unconditional love.

five.

5 things everyone knows about me:
1. I abreev and/or add sies to most words.
2. I can't swim, therefore I don't like anything to do in the water.
3. I rarely clean my plate.
4. I have a nice ass.
5. I am a terrible speller.

5 things few people know about me:
1. I can't stand it when people put any type of cotton or really any kind of material in their mouth. It makes my teeth hurt.
2. I've never smoked a cigarette. Nope not even one.
3. Toilet paper commercials completely gross me out.
4. I unintentionally take the longest route possible to get places.

1. I am afraid of reading aloud in front of people.
2. I am exceptionally talented at hovering over a toilet.
3. I have to sleep with a glass of water next to me ... you know, just in case.
4. I tend to judge people solely on their smile. Bad smile, they don't stand a chance.
5. I slept with my Cabbage Patch kid, Angelina, until I was in high school.

Boo Hoo

Every morning I wake up, get a shower, wash my face, and brush my teeth, turn on GMA and listen to it while I put makeup and get dressed. And 3 out of 5 mornings I tear up. Damn GMA. Whether it's a segment about a toddler surviving a plane crash or Robin Roberts walking down the runway and finally feeling pretty after battling breast cancer, I can't hold the waterworks back.

I don't shed a tear at Phantom of the Opera, but just turn on a little GMA and the tears can't stop flowing.

nights don't get much better than this

-Coffee with Paul, Lane, and the Larys.
-Making plans to go to ACL Fest with Lydia.
-Talking about breakups and hookups with Dad, JJ, and Matty.
-Seeing that Wilco is playing a show in driving distance.
-John Mayer's ass.

true love

This makes me happy.
