The park, small dogs, skinnydipping, brunch, running, sunbathing, swimming in the sea, celebrities, hippies, woods, monkeys, piano, Monteverde, apple crisp, books, campfires, changing my wandering ways, being on time more often, trying on obscenely expensive clothes.

*Love After Love*
"The time will come
when, with elation
you will greet yourself arriving
at your own door, in your own mirror
and each will smile at the other's welcome,
and say, sit here. Eat.
You will love again the stranger who was your self.
Give wine. Give bread. Give back your heart
to itself, to the stranger who has loved you
all your life, whom you ignored
for another, who knows you by heart.
Take down the love letters from the bookshelf,
the photographs, the desperate notes,
peel your own image from the mirror.
Sit. Feast on your life."
--Derek Walcott

Get it straight, sista...I met Tom Cruise when I won the Congressional Art Award in my junior year of high school and had my art in the halls of congress. ;)
I played your serenade for James this morning before he went to work--he enjoyed it greatly. We're currently debating which band to borrow from for the songs we will start leaving on your voicemail . . .

Yes it is! You can see them at the aquarium in Camden, NJ. Aren't they amazing? And see how close we were able to get? When you're in NYC more often you will have to come on a trip to see the hippos with me and James! And also the giant turtle there!
