YAY!!! :D

Wow, the metaphors are just gorgeous on that poem. Going back and forth between the land setting and the person/relationship. And the varied use of "blonde" as an adjective...that's beautiful. :D

Wow, I'm so glad you posted that. :D And I'm so glad I read it. :)

hey there,

i think you should do the boston marathon, but only in pearls, of course.
if you ever come up this way, let me know. you, me, and claire should get a drink.

hey, thank you! please believe, i carried that thing around with me for weeks.
doing the boston marathon requires a) doing the philly marathon, and b) doing the philly marathon in 3 hours and 40 minutes. if by some miracle that happens, i'll definitely let you know.
