Let a new man have your old heart

These past few weeks have not been my favourite, though they have had their moments. Alison's birthday was Saturday, I took off of work and she didn't. [hah, any excuse is a good excuse, eh?] Later on, I traveled to my cousin's house and we watched awful horror movies

The movies were awful, but it was nice.

I awoke on Sunday morning, and running on very few hours of sleep, decided to pick up Chris and venture to St. Pete for Erroll's grandfather's wake. Chris and I were just the friends. We were there to tell funeral-inappropriate jokes when we saw him getting emotional. We helped greet. We helped mourn. We helped him blast good charlotte and sing like an idiot, and drink Starbucks coffee and laugh.

I've been listening to Azure Ray.
I need you to save me, too.

I've got new feet

New Hobby: going to Cassidy's sotball games with Alison, bringing folding chairs and pretending to be overbearing, pushy, competitive parents who always hate whatever the umpire says. Gorging yourself at the concession stand is so in this fall.

Will you come and fetch me?

Mushrooms are all around, guys! Try to capture a picture of them before landscapers kick them over! I dare you!

I excel at being cynical. Anyone who knows me knows I am not cut out for retail work.

t. To make my job more enjoyable, sometimes, (desperate times call for desperate measures) I look too see if the customers who are really bothering me (high percentage) have a wedding ring on; or maybe, when they open their wallet to slowly count change and rearrange their pockets for three hours, holding up the line- if they have a picture of themselves smiling with their children or their significant others. It makes me feel less animosity towards them knowing that someone can put up with them. Loves them, even! Someone loves them for every vulgar and discourteous word that comes out of their mouths, and it fills my heart with joy knowing that I don't have to be that person.

Hey world, here I am!

My sister Kimberley has been urging me to create one of these for quite sometime now, probably for the endearing comments she knows she'll get from me because of how much I admire the things her mind creates. (oh, but i do admire them!) Nevertheless, I do what she says, so here I am. I thought I would begin with a picture I took semi-(not very)-recently of a lizard we found in her garage. It seemed an appropriate beginning to my blog life. I'll try to keep this interesting, guys.
