écrivain du jour—Salinger

The Catcher in the Rye is my favorite book.
when i'm bored I look up quotes by people i like.


"Among other things, you'll find that you're not the first person who was ever confused and frightened and even sickened by human behaviour. You're by no means alone on that score, you'll be excited and stimulated to know. Many, any men have been just as troubled morally and spiritually as you are right now. Happily, some of tehm kept records of their troubles. You'll learn from them—if you want to. Just as some day, it you have something to offer, someone will learn something from you. It's a beautiful reciprocal arrangement. And it isn't education. It's history. It's poetry."—J.D. Salinger

“What I was really hanging around for, I was trying to feel some kind of a good-by. I mean I've left schools and places I didn't even know I was leaving them. I hate that. I don't care if it's a sad good-by, or a bad good-by, but when I leave a place I like to know I'm leaving it. If you don't, you feel even worse.”—J.D. Salinger

touch my swag

so its snowing...
like really snowing like blizzard of '95 snowing.
Me and my sister, Kai were up talking to Lady and Daddy about snowing and how much it sucks. The blizzard of '95 was pretty boss though. it was like 3 feet of snow.

i discovered today that i fell into a snow bank....maybe that's why i don't like the snow.
Not like anyone left me there, but the snow was high enough for me to fall in and be briefly buried. i don't remember this. i'm ok with that, it sounds scary.

what i do remember:
Lady woke us up in the middle of the night to go out in the snow. We were little, may have been before the blizzard of 95 hit hard.
Lady made a big heart in the center of the apartment's courtyard out of foot prints.
The memory is like a dream sequence in a fuzzy warm feeling kind of movie.


¨ˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ
¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨

Kai was dancing on the porch singing this song:


i'm not sure why because she looked crazy and knew i had a camera in hand....


then we heard "gun shots" ran for cover and fell.

Playing in the snow is dangerous

¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ¨¨ˆˆ


GRILLED CHEESE




WTF IS THIS CRAP!!!???

if you don't know how to effectively make a grilled cheese sandwich you need to get the hell out of the kitchen.
Butter side down is messy. There are these magic tools called cheese knives and motor skills. Get some before attempting to cut cheese.

PS. my grilled cheese sandwiches are FANFREAKINTASTIC

booty pop panites...

i don't know how i feel about these


padded bra is one thing, but there is something just very wrong about booty pop panties.
i guess i never really needed to add anything to my jeans, so maybe i'll never understand...

where did my childhood go? it would be kinda nice to have it back. thanks



“I don’t think its over. I think we are in that in between stage. Like we are practicing to be adults, but could really be just as happy in overalls running around.”—MOH (friend since 1st grade)


i don’t know when it ended. in a telephone conversation with my dad he said “childhood is over”.

I know he was saying it to give me a reality check while i was freaking out about something and I really do appreciate it. I am in college now and I am working hard in school to do something with my life, not because the state requires me to be in school.


Was there a cut off, a day that childhood ended?

Was there a room i walked into, is childhood a place i get permanently locked out of?


i could really rock some overalls and sit on the couch watching Hey Arnold with some mac n cheese.


i guess if we never grew up no one else would have a chance at a childhood.


i would never hurry my princess soso's childhood.

i love babysitting. One of the easiest jobs ever.
i get paid to watch Spongebob and play tag. i do that at home for free.


i had a nice mix of Halloween and Christmas
Just the way i like it.











Christmas time is always a little more interesting when there are kids dressed up like warewolves playing near the lit tree...
