(wait for it.)
some of my essays have been accepted to literary magazines!
therefore, i spent every waking moment trying to write a summary about myself (which makes me feel weird.) you know, the summary at the end of essays that tell about the author. like they only live organic, wear rain boots without socks, have three chickens named after characters in russian literature, and get inspiration for their writing after staring into the sun for a full three minutes. yeah, that kind of summary.
BUT. i do leave you with a list i have just recently created. it is the ultimate list. it is a list of all the things i would do if i were to find myself at home alone for the night. but in reality, i kind of do them all the time. but i am also spending the night alone. so bummer.
things i'd like to do tonight:
drink empress of japan
(because i'm fancy, uh)
sing. loudly. (in the shower.)
preferably britney spears.
paint my nails.
write a novel about awkward one night stands, peyote, three piece suits, mangos, and a man known as pepe.
learn how to dance like beyonce.
save the galaxy from impending doom.
pen an indie song about sweaters, beer, and summer love (that always goes wrong).
and then go to sleep.
the end.
this song is rather fitting. don'cha think?
EMPRESS OF JAPAN.
ReplyDeleteheck yes girl.
Okay...maybe I've been a mom too long, and only know about yohoo's & gatorade from my boys. Maybe, I have never been invited to a proper tea...or maybe my niece, who is gorgeous, intelligent, friendly, & compassionate is more worldly that I. Assuming that Empress of Japan is a tea served hot, I will admit I have never heard of it! Maybe one day my beautiful niece will come and share a cup of tea with me. A all magically moment of two kin, relating to one another in only a way an Aunt & her niece can. Until that lovely day, dressed in our southern dresses, and maybe even an old Victorian hat to add to the magical moment. A cup of tea, and a afternoon of absolute bliss, to ponder the gifts each could bring to the other...All for love of tea, learning, and each other!
