putting it out there...

"i know that he is out there…he’s probably hiding under a red sox cap in a place that i frequent & wondering if i always laugh that loud or if my lips always turn that color when i drink wine. he’s there and maybe i know him or maybe i don’t know him yet, but this is the year we come together & figure it out - from hellos to first kisses to who’s on top.

i don’t care how much money he makes - i don’t care about the kind of shampoo he uses or the color of his eyes. i only care how much he makes me laugh, how much he hates to see me cry & what kind of a person he is when i’m not looking. he will be the big spoon to my tall dessert spoon & together we’ll make a life that people say isn’t possible except in great novels. it will be fabulous & i won’t worry about the future anymore."

birthday wishes for the coming year from my 30th birthday yesterday

while i was out...

so, i miss you guys (you know all you imaginary friends - are you still out there? were you ever there??). a while back...i got sad & stopped writing on here, but while i was away, i was posting snippets elsewhere because it just felt like less pressure. just little, pretty, shiny things that made me happy- quotes, pictures, sometimes writing - but now i feel like i'm ready to share with whoever...perhaps, you?

until i get inspired to create again, enjoy my collected treasures over at the little grey book...
