you will

you said you would be my dream I could have you every night
and if by morning, I'd forgotten you, well no big deal, that'd be alright
'Cause you're the reoccuring kind
you are the reoccuring kind
you never really leave my mind

my neutral milk hotel.

back here, again.
this last week has felt like so much more, i guess because of everything that's been going on. kahina is here, and i think i like her more this time around. we all get along so well that more than half the time i'd rather hang out with my family then those other kids.

i really don't have anything more to say. i'm just kind of enjoying life right now; I dance when there's music and sing when there's not. i could probably stay this way forever.

i missed home.

iron, wine, and staples

this man, i love this man. i was fortunate enough to recieve all of those rarities that sean told us about so long ago over the weekend and i haven't stopped swooning since saturday night.

also! i got those sheets as a christmas present in ninth grade, along with a guitar. i was really sick that year, over the break.

the best gift i've ever gotten was my trapper keeper when i was 6 or 7. i've always had a thing for office and school supplies and the like and that night i slept with my new love under my arm. also, when i offended lisa martland while we were pretending to vault over the playskool slide in renee's yard, i made it up to her with a candycane and a marble composition book, because that's what i would've wanted.

big yellow house.

tonight is another show at kelsi's. i think these times, more than almost anything else, make me feel like this is home for now. you aren't here, and neither are you, but when there's 20+ people crammed into that basement room all bopping and singing and humming and tapping along to the music that's inside of all of us i start to smile because look at how beautiful. look at how good we have it. i want to share this with everyone, i want to give you a part of my happiness.
