Give sorrow words; the grief that does not speak whispers the o'er-fraught heart and bids it break. ~William Shakespeare

I read bad poetry into your machine, I save your messages just to hear your voice. - R.E.M.

I watched Pink Floyd Live at Pompeii today. It was amazing. The best part was David Gilmour on the harmonica, with a dog howling next to him.

Nothing is more memorable than a smell. one scent can be unexpected, momentary and fleeting, yet conjure up a childhood summer beside a lake in the mountains; another, a moonlit beach; a third, a family dinner of pot roast and sweet potatoes during a myrtle-mad August in a Midwestern town. smells detonate softly in our memory like poignant land mines hidden under the weedy mass of years. hit a tripwire of smell and memories explode all at once. a complex vision leaps out of the undergrowth. - Diane Ackerman

"I can't think of anything worse then spending the rest of my life with someone I can't talk to, or worse, can't be silent with." - excerpt from the Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Society

You don't owe me anything, you've paid me a world in memories - A Fine Frenzy (band)

Baby steps

Since I am obviously incapable of consistently blogging decent sized posts, I am taking a new approach - a Twitter like post, everyday. Just something short, probably my favorite quote for the day or something that made me happy.

That little post will probably turn into a larger one, but I won't be intimidated by it. I figure it won't hurt to try.

"I carry you with me into the world,
into the smell of rain
& the words that dance between people
& for me it will always be this way,
walking in the light,
remembering being alive together."
~ Brian Andreas

It was time for a new look. On life and on hair.
