April 1, 2012


sometimes….
:: i turn the calendar a day early
:: i go to bed with dirt still under my fingernails
:: i can eat an entire bag of jellybeans in one day
:: i wished i liked my spring wardrobe better than my fall one.
:: i drive into the city and back and realize i never turned the radio on
:: i look at hannah and can see her in 10 years
:: i look at norah and have no idea what she will be like in 10 years.
:: i walk across the street at night and look into my windows
:: i cut branches off of neighbors trees without asking (pruned properly of course) for a vase on my mantle
:: i pretend that these things happen sometimes when they really happen a lot.
