distractions
In a world exponentially expanding in its number of households and websites, we're offered a new level of convenience at dislodging boredom to relieve the child-with-ADHD in all of us.
It's as if age has to step in and force us to please hold still.

still life
Every object, when struck by light, reveals a shadow cowering into the opposite direction.
We are cursed to walk with a darker ghost of ourselves. Remember that it's all part of what makes each of us a beautiful and unique work of art.

flowers and candy
She said his love was sweet and intoxicating.
Like flowers and candy, I thought, because it was also theatrical, unoriginal, and with a measurable shelf-life.

ommmmm
Think.
Say what you mean.
Act like you're worth it.
Be the person you admire the most.
Breathe out.

happy birthday!
As of today I'm married to a 30-something! (happy birthday, bobo!)
I think its funny how everyone's been asking him how it feels to be 30.. how exactly should it feel different from the day before?
Birthdays are too often shunned for being reminders of aging -- the tragedy of aging -- involving wrinkles, sagging breasts and a growing number of unwanted facial hair. I know it does, but I'd honestly prefer that to living the rest of my life as my 20-year old self. Gosh, flipping thru the events of that year on my journal was both exhilirating and laughable. I do love the memories, even the awkward ones; but if I could relive that year as who-I-am-now, I'm positive I could've done so much better. Not that I would've wanted to though because I'm sure all that was part of the process yada yada yada...
More than just looking back at the past year or worrying about the inevitable degeneration of the human body, birthdays give me reason to celebrate being and becoming a better version of myself. So HAPPY BIRTHDAY and HAPPY EVERYDAY too for that matter.
