When we stood close
Together and your eyes
Looked into my
Eyes, I felt that
Invisible
Threads passed from
Your eyes into
My eyes and
Bound our hearts
Together.

When you left me, and journeyed across
The sea, it was as
If fine threads still united us,
And they were tearing at the wound.

~Edvard Munch

Urban Dictionary Definitions

I don't spend much time online, as my severe lack of posts indicates, so when I ran across this website it was pretty obvious I was not the first to stumble across it's pages. Now that I think about it, I am sure I've heard a few references to it.

Any way, I decided to look up some words (on urban dictionary, oops, forgot to mention) and found the definitions pretty damn funny, for example did you know that 'famine underwear' are the underwear you wear when you haven't done laundry in weeks? And that they can be determined by a loss of elasticity, holes, stains, and are usually 5-10 years old? Or that a 'bitchen' is a room in which the bathroom is located in the kitchen?

As I was looking around, I remembered a friend telling me the definition of her name from the site and decided to look up my own...of course there was the MDMA definition at the top of the list, but reading on I found myself laughing at the stupid, yet sadly accurate definitions...I suggest looking up your own name, if you're bored, or at work, or killing time, or tired of facebook, or for whatever other reason people get online and look at silly things. Any who, I suggest it.

Rainy Day Soundtrack

Have you ever found the perfect music to fit the day? A soundtrack to the events going on in your life, music that makes the world seem a little brighter, makes you see a little clearer? Today was one of those days.
As I walked down the street, ducking under awnings, wading through a sea of umbrellas, I pulled on my headphones to hear the soundtrack of Garden State. Peering down the rain-soaked street for the headlights of the bus, it struck me that rainy days once were my favorite kind of day. But now, listening to that music, huddled under the high glass of the bus stop next to petite strangers holding umbrellas that threaten to poke me in the face the rain seemed wonderful once again. Droplets falling from above to wash away all the dirt, all the grim of the city, leaving another world behind, a world so much like the one we live in, yet softer somehow, fuzzy around the edges. A world that can be splashed away with the passing of a car, but always comes back. It always comes back with the rain.

I Just Don't Think I'll Ever Get Over You

New Headphones

I had been looking for a long time and knew exactly what I wanted...but of course they were no where to be found! You'd think in a city like San Francisco, with everyone listening to their music on the bus, driving, cycling, it would be an easy find..alas not. So after several days searching I was discouraged, ready to give in and order the damn things online, until, that is, I stepped into Best Buy (a sad, sad last resort) and there they were! Waiting for me!
It seems like such a simple thing, a pair of headphones, yet after the days of searching, the continued disappointment, finally plugging them in and listening to my favorite tunes was the best feeling in the world!
Now on to the next exciting adventure!
