perhaps have been ignoring the blog. have been distracted with a variety of things, work, life, love, etc.

a few recent notes.

went to a few shows recently. a week apart.
the first, short, good, young.
the second, epic and lovely.
putting me back in a show mindset.

i love the rain. took a walk in the rain by myself last night. mid-evening. under partial tree cover. sans music. fifty five degrees. it was as perfect last night as it has ever been.

short drives with great music and good conversation. cure-all. always have been. always will be.

sometimes, sleeping on a friend's couch or spare bed or floor is perfection.

there is nothing wrong with taking a nap at a party. help close it out later.

good line tonight. be happy in the moment. you don't know how many moments you will have that you can compare this one to, so make the best of it.

relishing in the peace and quiet of the evening.

quick hits.
thanks to the random dudes that helped me push my car out of the snow last night.
grateful for new and exciting work.
clinks to feeling special on occasion.

happy thursday all.

obviously.

English form of the Old French name Amée meaning "beloved"

it sometimes takes so very little to make me so very happy. yes, i have hit the upswing on my semi-bipolar view on life.

snowfall has been relentless. watching the snow collect on my windowsill. staring at the sky, the flakes silhouetted against the streetlamp. standing in the middle of a sea of pavement, breathing the cold, fresh winter air into my lungs. listening to everyone complain with a smirk on my face. fantastical. oh, what seasonality of life does to me.

refreshed musical territory. going to give the m. ward a rest, but i can't say the same for the strokes.

rediscovery of karaoke. i know, funny. that one is for you, pl.

happy new year all.

sigh. i've said it before, i will say it again. i love postsecret sundays.
