I can make you laugh.

"Among those whom I like or admire, I can find no common denominator, but among those whom I love, I can: all of them make me laugh." --W.H. Auden

Who Knew...

That toast could be so delicious, as well as entertaining? Enjoy!

This moment in time...

Hmmm... Let's look at the list:

Dinner with great friends? (Wine for them, water for me). 

Check.

Reminiscing of and reliving some of the best times of our lives? 

Check.

Remembering why we love each other and go together so well? 

Check.

Planning on staying BFF4Ls, as well as what we're going to do with the rest of our lives?

Check.

All in all I'd say I'm a pretty happy gal. 

Beginning of everything

kissssing:

“I fell in love with her courage, her sincerity, and her flaming self respect. And it's these things I'd believe in, even if the whole world indulged in wild suspicions that she wasn't all she should be. I love her and it is the beginning of everything.” -- F. Scott Fitzgerald

It's nice to be a little kid again

Sunday I got as close to Disney World as I've ever been in my whole life... I went to Disney on Ice. I seriously doubt there was ever a time when I haven't wanted to go to Disney World, but sadly I haven't been fortunate enough to go yet. I felt like I was eight years old again. It was magical, and I found myself reliving the first times I saw the Disney Princess movies (i.e. Cinderella, Snow White, Aladin, Sleeping Beauty, Beauty and the Beast, etc) and it was phenomenal. The characters came alive, and even now it's hard for me to think about those performers having real lives outside of the characters they were portraying. It's nice to go back to being oblivious and believing in magic and the idea that anything is possible with a little virtue and magic dust on your side.

Then and Now

  

Harry Burns: The first time we met, we hated each other.

Sally Albright: No, you didn't hate me, I hated you. The second time we met, you didn't even remember me.

Harry Burns: I did too, I remembered you. The third time we met, we became friends.

Sally Albright: We were friends for a long time.

Harry Burns: And then we weren't.

Sally Albright: And then we fell in love.

-- When Harry Met Sally

The Night Dances

A smile fell in the grass.
Irretrievable!

And how will your night dances
Lose themselves. In mathematics?

Such pure leaps and spirals ----
Surely they travel

The world forever, I shall not entirely
Sit emptied of beauties, the gift

Of your small breath, the drenched grass
Smell of your sleeps, lilies, lilies.

Their flesh bears no relation.
Cold folds of ego, the calla,

And the tiger, embellishing itself ----
Spots, and a spread of hot petals.

The comets
Have such a space to cross,

Such coldness, forgetfulness.
So your gestures flake off ----

Warm and human, then their pink light
Bleeding and peeling

Through the black amnesias of heaven.
Why am I given

These lamps, these planets
Falling like blessings, like flakes

Six sided, white
On my eyes, my lips, my hair

Touching and melting.
Nowhere.

-Sylvia Plath
