Earlier I was thinking about this space and this little blog and realized that I don’t want it to be a placed excluded of silliness. This space can absolutely be a place of deep thoughts and processing but I don’t think it should leave out the silly in between the stories. I have fallen victim to the “does anyone really care if…” and realized today what a loss that is. What a loss it would be for this blog. Because the seemingly little moments, the silly inbetweens are good. I mean, I started this space for me… and whether anyone wants to read them or not, ya know…. I want to be able to reach back and find them here. It’s one of the many cool things about a blog, being able to easily look back on past days. I want to see the silly as well as the serious.

Hence the photo of sweet tea in macro fashion. I texted my boyfriend after I took it and I said, “You should know you are dating a girl who takes a picture of her drink because she knows it would look cool up close.” What can I say, my eyes are corrupted. To the fault of studying graphic design.

I want to look back and read about how happy I was when I opened my mail box to find a letter from my little sister!

How big I was smiling when I dropped off something to be mailed to my man… just because.

How utterly ridiculous it was that a fuse blew in my room this morning, causing all of my lights to go out… JUST after I’d finished my makeup. Thank you, Jesus. 

How after doing some homework for a class I discovered that the gondola business is slowly going extinct… therefore J and I should go to Venice sometime in our future. Random, yes. Am I serious? Only about 30%.

Cheers to random thoughts.
