Taaaaaag!
So Bee in Bondi tagged me. I either have to come up with the 7 most infamous or famous people I have ever met, or 7 weird things about me. I’ll opt for the seven things since I’ve never met anyone famous. 1. I almost died at birth. The doctors noticed my heartbeat slowed down […]
Yes, I walked into that.

I was in the living room thinking about what to write for my response to a meme I was tagged for. I mused this out loud. “I need to come up with seven weird things about me.” Within seconds I hear: “Do you want help with that?”
The banishing of chapped lips and chapped hearts!

First he brought me flowers. Today he suprised me with a Coke, chapstick (because I left mine at home), a cd to help me practice for a vocal solo coming up, and some Jack Johnson. I’m telling you, it’s all about the little things! :] Mobile post sent by moment_of_silver using Utterz. Replies.
Sundays are
January 28, 2008
…always crazy for me. There’s something about Sunday mornings that unlocks my mind and heart and soul all at the same time. I end up feeling like I am on the verge of discovering something new. Something about humanity? Something about God? Something about the homeless man that was holding the door open for us […]
Hope in the rays
January 27, 2008
Don’t tell me I look pretty in this sweater. Being pretty is just one more thing people want from other human beings on this planet. Most don’t ask, they simply take. As angry as I was leaving the house I was surprised to find that the morning was still silent. The noise of the words […]
“What sunshine is to flowers, smiles are to humanity.”
January 26, 2008
I finally had to say goodbye the beautiful flowers that had been sitting on my desk for the past week and a half. I had been back from lunch for about ten minutes. My phone started vibrating on the desk. I assumed it was a text message, so without really thinking I picked the phone […]
Why in the world do I love this so much?
January 26, 2008
Blogging this year has already created a ton of new connections. I’ve literally “met” people from all over the world just in this first month of January. It’s fascinating and I love it. I love being able to step into corners of other people’s worlds. I love being able to see a little bit into […]
How to Wrangle a Kangaroo
January 23, 2008
Today was a day for Chinese leftovers and snowflakes that looked like glitter. Tonight at youth group the kids and us leaders were asked to tell their name, grade, and the story of their worst injury (or if we didn’t have one we could make one up). There was lots of blood, broken bones, scrapes, […]
“Where are you now?” “I am stepping outside and I think I just broke my hip.”
January 23, 2008
It’s the smell of gasoline left on my hands and the congestion I feel creeping into my lungs that puts days like these on ice. I saw a play last week that reminded me exactly of all the things I hate about the human race. The play was intense, highly symbolic, and circular. All the […]
Where Light meets Warmth, Silence greets Sunlight.
January 18, 2008
This afternoon as I was riding back towards work, I found myself leaning against the window and soaking in the sunlight. It was warm to the touch, hot on contact. A mid-afternoon sunwash. The movement of the car was monotonous but peaceful at the same time. My mind was working on enough to keep me […]
About Me
I'm a newlywed from southeast Michigan. I read and write often, and am beginning to cook just as much. I love tattoos, homemade peanut butter, Community coffee, bluegrass, documentaries, Chuck Klosterman, and hair dye.
