Lyrics
did you know all polar bears are left-handed? there is a correlation between being left handed; having blue eyes; and having schizophrenia.
this leads me to believe that all left-handed blue-eyed people are only posing as humans and that they are, in truth, insane polar bears.
for the record, if you want in on what's actually going on in my head, go here. to see photographic evidence, go here</a).
Who I'd like to meet: aliens, interestings, talking foxes, flying robots, and Nelson Mandela

I'm in RI as of right now...not gonna be back to the 18th. I haven't recieved any voicemails...must have given the wrong digits. Anyhow, have a ball my friend, and enjoy La France!
I think of you, too, and I miss you so much. I am slowly planning the Ireland adventure, and I may need to make detours to Paris and Scotland while I'm there. I will be singing shanties in your honor when you head off. Travel safely and email often!
boys' varsity soccer team had a game yesterday. the team they played were the pirates, and they brought a big ol pirate flag and flew it during the game. you would have been proud.
