trading sweatshirts and skin that itches.

camp reminds of me of a life i love more than a lot of things.



"hey do you want to switch sweatshirts"

"do you want to switch sweatshirs?"

"yes"

"ok"



i believe that you learn a lot from people. the scarey part comes when you start to rely on them. somestimes bad judgement calls are made but i think on a whole life is blessed by good friends.

rachael yamagata is my continual rainy day friend. amy i think of you every time she plays. why the heck haven't we played?

yes my secret crush on jason mraz hightens - i think i love him for his mind

I returned to my digs a raw and organic foods fanatic who can touch his toes for the first time as well as do things with my mind and body that I'd never dreamed"Tan" is a sanskrit word meaning "Stretch" or "hold." All summer i'd been signing emails with the line, "The meaning of life is the perfect tan" long before i knew it's ancient interpretation. Words like Tantra and Attention come from this root. My meaning of life now has more depth thanks to this discovery. Beauty as expected,continues to be only skin deep.

I came home to a beautiful house with my favorite bed only to sleep in a tent night after night to keep the awe hanging over me. In the islands the sky is so wide when you look up you realize you're really looking out, into space, reminding you that life isn't linear, instead you're actually stuck to the side of a massive rock floating out in the middle of nowhere. It's humbling to look at it that way and it brought me to the massive conclusion, there is nothing to know other than joy & happiness.

im hooked on my classroom - i have thought about my kids all weekend. i wish everyone could meet them because they have such a special way of making the world seem so simple and beautiful - well expect for the one who tried to punch me on friday...


im not going to go away for a while because i don't think i will ever settle in here if im always leaving. once rachel told me that im always saying goodbye because i was constantly leaving somewhere. is this now my time to just stick somewhere? one weekend i promise i will stay around to see a weekend in chicago...just not this one coming.

i want an adventure - i haven't had one in so long. - my skin itches for it and im not feeling completely whole without it. it's a different life when you can get away to sleep at a top of a lighthouse like was possible when the itch came before.
