“When the kids are old enough we gon’ teach them to fly”
Wanna pack your bags, something small
Take what you need and we disappear
Without a trace we’ll be gone, gone
Moon and the stars will follow the car
And then when we get to the ocean
Gonna take a boat to the end of the world
all the way to the end of the world
Oh when the kids are old enough we gon’ teach them to fly
You and me together, we could do anything, baby
You and me together yes, yes
You and me together, we could do anything, baby
You and me together yes, yes
You and I were not tied to the ground
Not falling but rising like rolling around
Eyes closed above the rooftops
Eyes closed, we gonna spin through the stars
Our arms wide as the sky, we gon ride the blue
All the way to the end of the world ..to the end of the world
Oh when the kids are old enough we gon’ teach them to fly
You and me together, we could do anything, baby
You and me together yes, yes
You and me together, we could do anything, baby
You and me together yes, yes
We can always look back on what we did
Always memory of you and me baby
Right now its you and me forever girl
You know we could do better than anything that we did
You know that you and me we could do anything
You and me together, we could do anything, baby
You and me together yeah, yeah
The two of us together, we could do anything, baby
You and me together yeah, yeah
Two of us together, yeah, yeah
Two of us together, we could do anything, baby
Whenever I get depressed about life, I think about buying a sportster motorcycle. I look up the different styles and costs…. I envision how awesome it would be to cruise around on one. Then I remember that 1) I’m not a badass 2) I have no money and 3) I’m not a butch.
But a girl can dream. Sigh.
“Just get to know me, baby, oh oh baby”
On a couch in a cold room
Pouring salt in my wounds
I’m a mistake faking truth holding liars balloons
Make me fly for something more
You’ve been asleep for days now,
Living inside your dreams
You know that aint no way to live or to handle such things
I wanna shake up your system
I wanna rattle your bones
I wanna take you to the stars
And then I’ll leave you alone
I would meet you anywhere, but I’ve been farther down
I saw you somewhere farther down,
Did I expect it?
Now I’m overcome with fear
Mama get me out of here
I’ve gone farther down than I ever wanna go..
I still feel like a Libra. You’ll never get me, Virgo…. I’ll never surrender.
What Do You Want To Do Before You Die?
It’s 7:30 am and I’m watching MTV’s The Buried Life.
“What if you had one day to live? Would you climb a mountain? Would you kiss the girl of your dreams? Would you tell someone how you really feel? Now, if you had a whole lifetime to live, would you lose that drive.. or would your list just keep getting longer?”
I don’t know what his #1 was, or what it would have changed to throughout his life, but I’m sure there were so, so many that he would have wanted to accomplish.
And I can only hope that eating dinner next to the Phillies’ star players, falling in love, and meeting Maroon 5 were all things on his list that.. and all were things that I helped him accomplish. I know that he sure helped me accomplish a few on my list.

And I wonder why my tummy hurts…
It’s 5am and I am baking cookies. I just pigged out on popcorn & hot chocolate while enjoying What I Like About You and Criminal Minds (as I was typing this sentence, I realized just how opposite those two TV shows are..). Both shows tend to run all night long, every night. After pulling 4 all-nighters in the last week, I’ve officially got my nights and days mixed up.
I also secretly like staying up for Three’s Company and The Best Years. I really need to find someone who is as obsessed with this collegiate melodrama as I am.
NEWSFLASH: Justin Bieber doesn’t have acne! Know why? Because he’s the new spokesperson for Proactiv. How dare a pimple try to graze that beautiful, angelic babyface.
Jesus. Someone please come save me from my own life.
So I just found out that Jesse McCartney ditched the blonde, boy band haircut a little while ago.. And that underneath his golden bowlcut, there actually lay a very, very attractive human being (with a terrific sense of style, I might add).
I also just discovered that he is no longer of a prepubescent age, but is actually 23! A whole year older than I. I no longer feel like a creep.
Only a few more years before he grows out of his Frankie Muniz stage and will be on the level of, say.. Leonardo DiCaprio? Soon enough he’ll be ripe for the pickin’. :) :)

He’s missing out on so much, it makes me so sad. I thought the hardest part would be how much I miss him, but it’s really how much he will be missing out on…
Like traveling to see your Gamecocks play in the SEC Championship,
and watching Vick’s record-breaking Monday Night Football game,
and watching your favorite movie over and over and over again,
and eating great food, especially after we cooked it together,
and feeling overly confident in your sophisticated wardrobe,
and listening to a great movie score before going to bed,
and enjoying the company of your goofy best friends,
and going to a Maroon 5 concert on New Years Eve,
and cracking the best “that’s what she said” jokes,
and taking care of the amazing kids at St. Ed’s,
and feeling the warm sun shine on your face,
and interviewing for real (grown-up) jobs,
and moving cross-country to a new city,
and pursuing all of your lofty dreams,
and getting married (to me I hope!),
and having children of your own,
and enjoying all of the itty bitty
simplicities in life, the ones
that so many others take
for granted. And while
you miss all of that..
I will miss you.
Desperately.
:(
Random, Uninhibited Thoughts
Sooooooooo, call me crazy.. but I don’t think you can hate/partially ignore/be a bitch to someone (or their new girlfriend for that matter) for an entire year and then be dramatically sad/depressed/make annoying status updates once they’re gone. Color me ridiculous, but that’s just selfish!!!!! And I’m sooooo sick of it!!!!! I don’t give a shit about your feelings anymore.
ALSO, I hate everyone and just wish HE could come back :( :( There are a few select friends who try really hard and whom I love dearly, but they just aren’t him… what’s the use in comparing. I need him. It’s nothing you could ever understand.
Sidenote: I’ve been watching The Holiday over and over again lately.. It was our go-to, background noise, kinda movie. I just wish I could take my own holiday and meet him somewhere and be in his arms again. I miss his body heat.
In other news, I love planning weddings. Scratch that. I hate planning weddings, but I love drinking Christmas beer at the reception and partying on a Sunday night. Also, I thought I had it all together and wouldn’t get emotional…………….. that is, until we gave them the wedding present of $500 being donated to cancer research (in honor of the bride’s brother-in-law), and I realized it was exactly 1 month ago today… Pour me another beer, please, and watch me fall apart right in front of you, THANKS.
