A collection of Oddities


I love life's little obscurities that make my days feel good. Take today.
I made friends with my new neighbors today. Two identical speckled bird that sit perched on my balcony, both relaxed and watching the world. I hope they are in love. Birdlove.
They can have the balcony, it's as much theirs as it is mine, right?


And then I went to Wendy's (I know I told myself I would quit fast food...but I was hungry. And I enjoyed it and do not feel guilty whatsoever). I paid in all quarters. And dimes. And pennies. And the cashier guy called me love multiple times.
Now, generally I would be freshly annoyed by someone calling me that besides a select few. But today it made me smile and I felt a little warmer. And it made me want to go back to Wendy's. Not just for the number 1 with no onion; added cheese.

Last night was spent in a huff, for god knows why. I gave Mateo the silent treatment for the first time, over a misunderstanding. And for some irrational reason it led to me thinking about his absence. Because, you know when things are just so forceably distant when the silent treatment is used? Yeah, it got to me. And I ended up crying and not staying irritated for longer than like 5 minutes. I am such an ungodly baby sometimes. It's so irritating to look back at. It even makes me cringe to type it. But it happens.


I'm embarking upon another artistic vein of living. This time it involves modeling. Now, don't start laughing just yet. I'm well aware that I am 5'2. Or less.
But I'm talking about artistic modeling. I love it, I love playing in characters and stepping outside of myself. Matt and I are so full of ideas now for art that we can create together. I might put the g-rated ones here, we'll see.

Nothing poetic today. Here are some picturas!

I have to say babe, this is one of the most lovely articles you've ever written. I tried to find a quote to explain it, but it just didn't work. The whole entry seems mature and happy, and well, enlightened. I hope it keeps up for you.

And yes yes for art!
