unexpected beauty

you know what i love?

i love when you're just driving along in your car, putting on make-up at stop lights, driving as fast as you safely can, and all of the sudden BAM!

absolutely beautiful tree with all its red leaves, half of them blanketing the ground surrounding it on the side of the road. just gorgeous. random gorgeous.

that's what i love. :)

fall, dating, B2.0

this morning was the first morning that i could use a blanket! soon i'll be wearing sweaters and hoodies, wrapping myself in scarves, crunching leaves beneath my feet, and sitting beside open fires! ...okay, so not fires so much as computer screens, but those can be pretty exciting, too.

fall IS my favorite season, so i'm super-happy that the weather is cooling down (despite it having taken FOREVER to warm up). plus, my mom makes her famously delicious lasagna every fall. so i'll be doing my happy dance now till November!

i'll also be watching B2.0. first to last. because i haven't before. i've watched the first two weeks and now i can't believe i didn't start watching sooner! i get it now! i totally understand why everyone loves them so much. (as of now i'm at Jan. 25th)

also, i'm giving this a try (why not, i suppose):



i guess it can't hurt. i hope it can't hurt.

Socrates and eternal love

back in 1989, i was a mere 5 yrs. old. i enjoyed making mud pies, performing soap operas with my Jem dolls, perfecting my penmanship, and playing Socrates.

i'm gonna go ahead and say that this was the inception of my nerdom.**

i haven't thought about this game for YEARS! that is, until putting this into my car's cd player:


i - was - ELATED! all those happy hours learning my states and kicking ass at spelling! *satiated sigh* good times, good times.

in conclusion, i will love Lord Alex Day (no seriously, that's his legal name!) forever because he opened and closed the first song of his album with Socrates audio clips.

that song, as well as the rest of the album, is pretty good, too. you can check that out here if you'd like.


**this is obviously a blatant lie. i was CLEARLY born a nerd. i mean, i enjoyed perfecting my penmanship. i ENJOYED it!

the spazzy Daily Booth pic i took after opening my CD. taken from my phone- in the car:


it took embarrassingly long to get a shot i liked. then i was able to move on and go to the store for my mom and brother- whilst blasting Parrot Stories.
