everything in its right place

driving home this morning around two was rough. i'm so tired of studying. throwing things together that don't represent my inner perfectionism. i pulled out of the driveway of my friend's house and headed into the street. there were billows of fog. everything had a layer of dew. everything smelled of muggy spring. i rolled the windows down, turned up ok computer way too loud, and threw my hands out the window. i exhaled pure stress and just smiled. 
i drove home on streets made of clouds.

inspiration



i know what i want. i want what i don't know i want yet. to be inspired. by the inspiring and the not so inspiring. to continually want to be alive, and to experience all of it. to remember, to move on, to renew.

opera weekend

happy weekend, all. opening night of orpheus in the underworld tonight- the spring season opera production. shows saturday and sunday, too. i'm in the pit. should be a good, completely risqué time. 

happy may day!


this song by elvis perkins is about the time spent while his good friend was in a coma. it's the most meaningful song i've heard in a great deal of time. the lyrics blow my mind.

can't wait to see this

speaking of

mia farrow is the coolest. i like her a whole lot. 
reminds me of my mom. 

need the eggs


i've been at sick all week now. drugged into sleeping the majority of the time, forcing myself to the doctor, stuff like that. i've been lonely and watching a lot of movies. annie hall has been my favorite. 
i won't be the first or the last to like woody allen's work, but it's been a nice time nonetheless.

stay with me baby

church bells


i think about weddings a lot. maybe it's because there is so much happening with marriage in the news, maybe because i think about my own, but mostly because they're part of my life. i've been the maid of honor. i've been the cellist. my mom's been the organist/pianist, my sister's been the violinist, i've been in the string quartet. i've played pachelbel's canon more times than i care to think of. i've seen the candelabras fall over. i've seen the father-in-law show up drunk, and i've seen the bride outside drinking a beer. i can tell what's popular, what's cliche, what's real and what's not. when people make it their own day, regardless of trends and fashions, that's what it's all about. when i hear of ideas like this one, it makes me so happy. renting out a few super 8 mm cameras to your friends and having them film it. the whole day will be a blur, so why not see it through the people who see the best in you?
that's just what it's about.

bunnies and eggs

these people make my life a lot better than it should be.
happiest of easters everybody! 
i'm sick for the second major holiday in a row. yeah!
