Heroes
""You look invincible," my mother said one night.
I loved these times, when we seemed to feel the same thing. I turned to her, wrapped in my thin gown, and said:
"I am.""
(we're our own heroes)
my mom & sister are lovely.
...as is this dog i know ?
i fidget with my fingernails too often and i wear high heels on days where i need to feel taller. the world is a puzzle to me. and people are trivia games.
There isn't really much to say, except that I hope you find out who you are before it becomes too late. Before who you actually are is such a disappointment to who you thought you would be. Let's try to be happy with ourselves - and not just the grandeur idea of what we might be or could be. Because this is it, take it or leave it. And you might as well take it, it's better than fairy tales. You're only as great as your biggest flaw.
I am discovering myself. BRB.
I was just sitting around one day when a guy came to me and said "You're the prettiest thing I've ever had floating around inside my head." I told him "Then I should grow some wings instead so I could fly away and play. But maybe I'll come back to you when I get bored of being a pretty stray."
Who I'd like to meet:
vCONVERSATIONALISTS AND LOVERSv .................................
i've never been one for quotes but: "The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated." -Mahatma Gandhi
It was great to meet you as well. Thank you for the warm welcome, and yes I plan on attending MHCC next term. I just have to meet with a counselor to figure out all of my classes and so forth. And I will definately have to take you up on your offer, because as of right now I know how to get to about 3 places...ha
I'm a little sickly today. I have been for a couple days now. I just don't like people to know that. I'd love to come out and support your venture. I can see it means a lot to you, but I just don't feel up to it. And I look like shit right now. haha If by some miracle I feel better by tonight, I will hit you up. Otherwise good luck and have a great time!
Well although the Pirate Festival did appear to be a swashbuckling good time, it was $15.00 admission which is pretty steep for me... and I'm guessing you as well.
Speaking of pancakes, I will be wandering over to your side of OR tomorrow. I'm meeting up with Jim at 2:30 to play some racquetball for the first time. Should be interesting, but anyway I need to give those rackets back to you. When and where?
I just discovered earlier today that the underbelly of St. John's bridge is at least 50X cooler than the surface. It could very well be my new favorite spot in PDX. In other news, there was a Pirate Festival down there today. Oh and the Roma tomato plant in the garden is threatening to take over the neighborhood. So it goes...
haha Thanks. Wow that's really funny you should say that. Brittany was making fun of me a couple days ago for stating that I am currently in the worst shape of my life. True story. haha But I am glad that everyone else thinks I look healthier. It must be the side-burns.
