We all have check lists some longer than others …


I want …


someone who makes me look at things from a different perspective


someone who magically makes my coffee taste better when they're sitting next to me

someone who holds my hand so tight it begins to pulse



someone who's mother adores me


someone who adores his mother


someone who writes me notes instead of buying me gifts


someone who picks my nose


someone who shares his deepest darkest secrets with me


someone who doesn't make me wait when we're going out


someone who finds me sexier in a pony tail than all dolled up


someone who would be willing to live in a shoe box with me if life got tough


someone who compares me to no other women in this world


someone who works hard during the day so he can take me out during the evening


someone who makes me laugh when I'm mad


someone who thinks we're the coolest thing since kool aid


someone who makes plans with me not for me


someone who gives me piggy back rides


someone who is willing to dress up with me on Halloween, even when he's 78


someone who gives me space


someone who thinks about me when picking what flavor gum to buy


someone who isn't afraid to show the world how much he loves me


someone who gives freakishly good foot massages


someone who likes to take bubble baths even when I use my utmost girlish bath soaps


someone who tells me the truth despite the consequences


someone who makes other girls jealous of his girl


someone who shares his childhood memories with me


someone who has a life of his own outside of the one we share together


someone who makes it his sole purpose in life to make me smile


someone who brings the universe back from destruction by feeding me ice cream


someone who treats my family like his own


someone who challenges my mind


someone who is intelligent enough to know how to speak and even more intelligent to know when to stop


someone who can carry my shopping bags


someone who pulls my hair


someone who hides notes in my starbucks cup


someone who wants to go half with me on a baby girl


someone who can teach me new things


someone who doesn't make me question myself


someone who takes me out of my comfort zone


someone who doesn't eat red gummy bears because he knows it's my favorite


someone who has a past that doesn't affect his future


someone who doesn't come from money


someone who has suffered life's simple miseries


someone who is destined to do ordinary things with me in extraordinary ways

I'm pathetically romantic ...

We're All Related, Just Not By Blood

Whenever I find a NOUN (person, place or thing) I can relate to, I feel a sense of calm wash over me. In today's case I came tumbling on "UNDER THE COVERS" a blog on tumblr. Please check out her absolutely raw, real, romantic, ruthless, ready for your eyes posts.



Oh and here are a few of my favorites

One Must(ache) Stay Forever Young

I think I'll always be that girl (ahem, hag) who'll celebrate her birthday at 98 with a very age inappropriate theme!





Thanks to Frostedcandy.com I was able to chime my 27th in with a blast of fun, after all you MUST(ache) stay FOREVER YOUNG <3

Let's Melt The Sun Together


I think the only place a person should live is one where there is a quick, convenient, close getaway nearby! Here in Los Angeles, we are blessed to have more than just one, i.e. Santa Barbara, San Diego and of course my favorite Palm Springs.

That's where my tush will be frying this weekend!

Happy Almost Summer

Avoid The Bullshit

In a world where we're all fighting for the same thing, we sure know how to go against one another and deviate from our common goal. In my 27 years of existence I've learned ONE thing (if nothing else) and that is we're all aiming to be happy. In all that I've experienced and all the innocence that has been robbed of me over the years, this is the one fact that has remained true even at the most ugliest of times.

So I've decided and I hope others will join me in avoiding all the bullshit that gets in the way of our simple, yet not so simple goal. Smile because when all else around you is crumbling, you'll know a secret most will never understand ... happiness can not be earned, owned, consumed or traveled to: it's not a job promotion, car, drug or destination. Happiness is the spiritual experience of living every minute with love, grace and gratitude. Now tell me aren't you happier?




Words Don't Always Work

Sometimes you just feel like writing and you know there is so much you want to express, but you don't know how to tackle it. You even stop to wonder, "will anyone get it?" even if I write until the sun goes down and the moon rises, will anyone grasp what I'm feeling? Probably not, only because no one really can ever know how words transpire in another person's brain. I suppose you just have to write to feel those letters clicking under your fingers and knowing that somehow it is therapeutic to your soul and what it may or may not do for another person's soul isn't your motivation. What was the point of this? Absolutely nothing aside from the fact that I just felt like writing.
