Just freaked out because car key wasn’t in my bag. I’m sitting at a red light.
I’m hungry for the spiderwebbian delicacy of Modernist details. And a cheeseburger.
I can't …
I can’t:
* open a newspaper machine (do they still exist?)
* walk significant distances in flat shoes that aren’t flipflops (damn tendons)
* sing (utterly, hopelessly tone deaf)
* sleep in any position but face down
* be patient when someone, somewhere is popping gum

Blow up balloons.
Or blow a bubble with gum.

Nervous.
Wow—was just having the same conversation with myself. Trying to be better about it, rather than just pretending to be Grace Kelly with binoculars. (Though oogling Jimmy Stewart wouldn’t be half bad, and I do love me some Grace … .)
You guys are like characters in my fave books—who talk to each other! It’s like Darcy is talking about his day to Ignatius, who is...

When raindrops hop a ride on your umbrella + dry car from Point A to Point B, do they ever make it back to their home family puddles?
I FREAKIN’ LOVE SATURDAY MORNINGS. Hello, all. Wishing you boucoudles of smirks & lattes. xoxo
I want a magic gun that bung blasts rude people & sends them to a planet inhabited by mold & talking pigs who misuse the word “literally.”

Wearing rose-colored glasses + even rosier pjs, crying over the Gilmore Girls. (Er, I mean CUSS CUSS BEER.)
Madame, my inner karma chameleon hearts your splatterpaint pants.
Spilled assorted kitty food nuggets all over the floor b/c I was staring out the window at falling cherry blossom petals. Aesthetic cuss.
Today smells like elevator music & thyme.
O, Ear Infection—thou art but a poor player who struts upon my head’s stage w/much sound & fury, signifying misery. Be gone, evil strumpet.
Gramma got into fisticuffs w/another lil’ old lady at the bank yesterday. Her explanation: “I had just had a permanent & was feelin’ sassy.”
Today I bought another copy of a book I already own ‘cause it had a cooler, beautiful-lr cover. Sick? Perhaps. Don’t think Kindle is for me.
Receptionist at my hair salon could be a tad more humble. And wear pants that show us slightly less of her hooha.
Calling all connoisseurs of sweetness . . . .
I’m an observer. I think most of y’all have figured that out. I’m constantly responding to you in my head as I observe your posts & follow your threads both here & via Twitter. (Really, I am!)

I’m just as fascinated by the way your mind works...
