Happy Birthday

Now's as good a time as any to mention this, since I missed the day it actually happened. But as of now this blog has been in service for a year. Well not really. There's actually a number of back dated posts that were from my old live journal account. But I saw blogger as being better and moved them here to the appropriate dates.



As this blog is now a year old, post wise that is, I feel like I really do have the ability to stick to something. I stuck to this and didn't really stop writing in it for too long a period of time anywhere.



Hmm, last night was a little interesting. I sat at the coffee shop in the rain talking to this really cute little nerdy girl, two guys who were drawing their own comic and some of the regulars I talk to almost on a nightly basis.



There was something about that rain last night, it was so refreshing and a little calming too. I mean it really just drizzled kind of and the water can come through the top outside, because its just meant to stop sunlight, not rain.



I'm kind of starting to realize that in just a few more weeks this summer will be over as far as I'm concerned, not that I had much of a summer in the first place. I didn't even see a damn beach. But as I talked about with Mikey last night, he's one of the dudes from the coffee shop, I can't wait for winter.



Well really, I can't wait for fall, but there's a different reason involved entirely. But I have a distinct love for winter. I can ride down the street with my windows rolled down listening to the Ataris, its my winter CD. I feel more at home in the winter and things just seem to go better for me. This heat is killing me, its just getting too humid around here! Plus I can save more gas in the winter, because I don't have to have the freaking air on all of the time!



I better get to class, I have a review today that I can't miss!





"Takeoffs And Landings"


On this coldest of January nights

We drive out past the runway and watch the planes go flying by

The runway lights are the deepest blue like the colors of your eyes

So close them tight and kiss me one last time





If you could go anywhere right now

Where would you go?

And would you miss me when you get there?

There's no place that I would rather be

Please don't let me go falling from the sky

The "fasten seatbelt" sign just needs to go out

If only you could be right here by my side

Home wouldn't seem so far from here





Passport, customs, carry on, remember

To shut off all of your electronic devices

Fell asleep on Tuesday woke up Monday afternoon

I slept right through your International Date Line

If only you could be right here by my side

Home wouldn't seem so far from here
