so, wow, yeah, i don't know!  it's been awhile since i've updated, i mean, for real, about life and all of that. i don't know where to start, it seems like a whole lot has happened and then not a whole lot at all.  let's see.

moved into my new place in chicago.  logan square to be exact, which really can be a whole lot more like mexico.  you should' ( Read more... )

Take a picture of yourself, right now. Don't change your clothes, don't fix your hair, just take a picture. Post that picture with no editing and post these instructions with it.

last nights, arms out the window and hair gone greasy from the wind.  last looks and last locations, the first place you ever lived, police cars and playgrounds at night.  looking at spots and seeing halfway hologram images of yourself in the seventh grade, all the places you ever kissed your boyfriend, if people leave light impressions behind, if ( Read more... )

well i know it's summer because i've got bruises on my knees, scraped-up shins and twenty thousand mosquito bites too.  today i cleaned up my room at my father's house and it actually looks really nice.  i don't think i ever appreciated this room enough, with its wood on its walls and wood on its floors, slanted sage green ceilings, and the ornate ( Read more... )

i haven't been on livejournal much lately.  i finished my first year of college.  i'm back in rockford now, i'm not sure for how long.  my hair is getting longer and everything smells like lilacs.  days and nights are spent mostly the same, driving around with the windows down (when it's warm) and stalling in parking lots, trying to figure out ( Read more... )
