Thanksgiving

This year my family and I took off to Fargo, ND to have thanksgiving with our relatives. Things got a little hectic due to a faulty turkey fryer, but all in all it was a wonderful time. I'm so thankful I have a great family to spend holiday's with.

Funny fantasies are never so real as old style romances
Where the hero has a heroine who has
Long black braids and lets
Nobody
Kiss her ever
And everybody’s trying all the time to
Run away with her
And the hero is always drawing his
(sic) sword and
Tilting at gin mills and
Forever telling her he
Loves her and has only honorable intentions and
Honorable mentions
And no one ever beats him at
Anything
But then finally one day
She who has always been so timid
Offs with her glove and says
(though not in so many big words)
Let’s lie down somewhere s
Baby

One of my favorite photographers is Jean-Baptiste Mondino. He has such a brilliant mind & a beautiful way of showing it. Here are some of my favorite photos he's shot.





Jean also has directed music videos and is even said to have directed the first one. Here is a commercial of his from 1987

Why don't we

Why don't we take more drastic measures?
do more outside
go more places
make more changes
talk to each other more
share our belongings
play more music
tell the truth
You leave a trail behind you
Like nothing I’ve ever seen
And you think you’ve never made a difference

The way I see it is that you think too much
I can almost hear your brainwaves
Crashing into each other

And if only you could remember
All the things you did that year
All of the music and dancing and people

I think you could finally be happy
With what is around you
And what you are doing.

Beach & a Bike Ride

This weekend the weather was nice enough to take a little trip to the beach.

A Little Magic Never Hurt Anyone





(CacaoCocoa)

Greedy

I want more sparkles
more sequins
more oppurtunities
more motivation
more fruit
more shoes
more love
more ambition
more heat
more sunshine
more ways
more ways to be me
more open minds
more listeners
more tree huggers
more huggers
more hair
more self control
It may not end up like I’ve always pictured
And something’s just won’t work out.
But there will always be you and I hope
You can say the same about me.
