lets skip to the good part

listening to Hello Hurricane {entire album} by Switchfoot

lifey things. lets talk about that.

i'm tired of winter now, for realz. i'm ready for warm summer mornings where i can wake up and immediately go outside barefoot {still in my pj's} with some coffee and good reads.

i'm ready for the trees to be dressed again and the peepers to be peeping. i'm ready for late night swims and open windows. yes, i'm ready for those days.

meanwhile, we wait. the days are mostly cold, maybe a 50degree day here and there, mr. sunny graced us today with a long and much needed appearance and i'm seeing hints of spring in little hidden nooks. 

life is peaceful amidst the tiny bits of chaos thrown my way. i like it. 

lately my dwellings have been a mixture of piles and stacks of stuff. crafty/papery stuff, blankety stuff, albumey stuff. just stuff. its not always nice piles and stacks. sometimes its just down right ugly and i can't stand it so i make the bed and maybe straighten a stack or two of books.

but for the most part, its nice.

i took some pictures of my piles and stacks, mainly because i was bored and i like piles and stacks. 

 yes, that is a brass pineapple, i have my awesome friend lydia to thank for that!

trust me, there are many more piles of books than shown above. every surface has books stacked and i have books packed away under the bed, under the vanity, under everywhere. 

i like my books. i recently purchased a 1922 book by sinclare lewis called Babbit, and once i finish Right Ho, Jeeves {by p.g. wodenhouse, *hilarious* read} i plan to start that..oh wait, arg. i have to finish Two Towers first. oh well, at least thats a good'n. after Babbit i'm going to give A Tale of Two Cities another try. sometimes i just don't have the patience for dickens and i'm not ashamed of that. lots of people think they're pretty uppity uppity for reading dickens. ppsh. that dude was a mad genius, yes, sometimes his books are quite the pills though. i do want to add though, if you've never read him and you want to, i'd suggest starting with Great Expectations, once i finally got into that one, i adored every bit of it! 

i have a little confession. something you should know about me. something i'm not very proud of, but i want you to know because it seems like the right thing to tell you guys.

and its this.

sometimes when i say i'll do something, write something, post something, send something. whatever it is. when i say i'll do something, i don't always end up doing it.

its sorta like rule number one with the Doctor. he lies. 

but i don't fancy lies. my intentions are where they should be, i really do want to do what i say. but i don't always end up pulling through. and i know that this is a mistake we all make, i know that. but i just sorta hate it. don't you? 

when i say i'll draw that picture, i reallyreally do want to do it and 3 years later it still hasn't happened?

arg. feels just aren't happy. 

so from now on, might is going to be added to my vocabulary. 

i might be able to come.

i might be able to draw that.

i might write that post.

i might. i will try.

ok, confession done. :p

genius i tell ya, genius.

x-noni

oh, and p.s.

adam young is beautiful.

true story.
