if you find yourself caught in love

here's a list of things so wonderful they cause me to leap:

1. this weather
2. bike rides at all times
3. hanging out with bunnies and jameson
4. destroyer at logan square auditorium
5. a four mile improvised song with the refrain "and we're walking and our bikes home, walking our bikes home..."
5b! the verses of said song being the sappiest and sexiest verses sang in between bites of fresh 3am dunkin donuts
6. my smart, hilarious, brilliant and beautiful girlfriends
7. parks
8. hogwash, hindenburg, here we are
9. home cooked meals
10. oh you know, life in general

bless this meal before someone gets sick off of what they didn't kill

so yeah.
things on my plate include 20 credit hours, two improv teams, two one acts, one senior showcase and a million final performances and portfolio pieces. and three pizza pieces.
difficult to swallow, much less digest.


but!
the world looks like blueberry compote (on a grilled cheese made with brie). so ok.

what i could stand for

riding home from rehearsal tonight i fell off my bike. fell off to the side. sideways. and in slow motion.*
the people in the car next to me at the stop light were laughing very hard.
i felt good about the fall and wished i could replicate it.
the girl in the passenger's seat rolled down her window and shouted, "graceful!"

although i am broke, i've been looking for a tandem to purchase.
i bet joe can track stand for hours.
i get three seconds while practicing in the curves parking lot next to my apt after falling over at a stop light.



so i live in a cave.
with a wolff.
and i love it.
(how do i say this? i've always wanted this. what are your weaknesses?)


*my takara doesn't handle a track stand the way my fuji did. or i don't handle a track stand the way i did 8 months ago. i forget that my front wheel will touch my pedal if my right foot is foward, and then i will fall. or my center of balance forgets me, and then i will fall. but still gracefully!
