"I met a woman who's maiden name was Crane who married someone named Stork."

David Sadaris - so quirky, so quick! See why by watching this interview/book reading from Letterman. Right now, I'm reading Dress Your Family In Corduroy and Denim. I'm already impressed.

beads, flowers, freedom, happiness

true story

my current craving

All I can think about is how much I want to go back to my home state of New Hampshire and sit inside Portsmouth's Breaking New Grounds with a decadent slice of cheesecake and a giant, piping hot mug of coffee. A David Sedaris novel or a notebook of poetry would be a great addition to that scene as well. Smells like home to me.

soul sister

for the love of tea

let life grow on me

My soft heart makes me gullible

and I'm always the fool.

So turn these tears to petals,

grow lilies on my wounds.

Let life grow on me

My arms will turn to ivy;

they'll stretch and they'll bloom;

hugging the buildings

and wrap around you.

Let life grow on me

Winter break plus Christmas money equals road trips. I was fortunate enough to be able to travel to Avon, New York to visit one of my best friends. The next few posts will be some of the photos I took.
