I want a life that sizzles and pops and makes me laugh out loud. And I don't want to get to the end, or to tomorrow, even, and realize that my life is a collection of meetings and pop cans and errands and receipts and dirty dishes. I want to eat cold tangerines and sing out loud in the car with the windows open and wear pink shoes and stay up all night laughing and paint my walls the exact color of the sky right now. I want to sleep hard on clean white sheets and throw parties and eat ripe tomatoes and read books so good they make me jump up and down, and I want my everyday to make God belly laugh, glad that he gave life to someone who loves the gift."

more to come, i swear.

TOP JOY THIS WEEK:
1. Guerin's spring musical, The Music Man, opened on Thursday and had 2 more shows on Friday and Saturday. Big shock: IT WENT SO WELL!
2. I GOT HARRY POTTER AND THE DEATHLY HALLOWS PART ONE AFTER SCHOOL ON FRIDAY!!!
3. I went to Camp Tecumseh today. Obviously that makes it a good day.
4. I had five diet cokes, one coffee frappacino, and one jamoca shake, plus lots of food today.
5. I JUST FEEL SO HAPPY!

* On a side note, I have not been keeping my promise to myself and posting once a week. I can't help it. I shouldn't even be posting now I have SO much to do. But soon I'll catch up.
