my secret spot.





I was saving this place for someone special. I have passed it by every night on the way home from work for over a year. I had always thought about pulling over but just convinced myself to wait until i could share it with someone who was important to me. I was on the phone with my friend when she convinced me to pull over for myself. the sun was setting and before i could talk myself out of it, i pulled off...got out, and enjoyed the view while describing to her what it was like to be standing on the edge of a cliff looking at the ocean and smoke stacks. doing things for myself...hmmm, it's a new thing for me, but it felt good.

cloudy days and John Mayer.

watch the entire video, it's amazing.

Wherever I go,
Whatever I do,
I wonder where I am in my relationship to you.
Wherever you go,
Wherever you are,
I watch your life play out in pictures from afar.

Wherever I go,
Whatever I do,
I wonder where I am in my relationship to you.
Wherever you go,
Wherever you are,
I watch that pretty life play out in pictures from afar.





John Mayer In Your Atmosphere:


I don't think I'm gonna go to LA anymore
I don't think I'm gonna go to LA anymore
I don't know what it's like to land
and not race to your door
But I don't think I'm gonna go to LA anymore

I don't think I'm gonna go to LA anymore
I'm not sure that I really ever could
Hold on to a hotel key
in your bedroom neighborhood
With me sleep walking in Hollywood

I'm gonna steer clear
Burn up in your atmosphere
I'm gonna steer clear
Cause I'd die if I saw you
I'd die if I didn't see you there
So I don't think I'm gonna go to LA anymore

I dont think I'm gonna go to LA anymore
Get lost on the boulevard at night
Without your voice to tell me
I love you, take a right
The ten and the two is a lonely sight

I'm gonna steer clear
Burn up in your atmosphere
I'm gonna steer clear
Cause I'd die if I saw you
I'd die if I didn't see you

I'm gonna steer clear
Burn up in your atmosphere
I'm gonna steer clear
Cause I'd die if I saw you
I'd die if I didn't see you there, see you there

I think I'm gonna stay gonna stay,
gonna stay in the grey, think i'm
gonna stay
All the street lights say nevermind nevermind
All the canyon lines say nevermind
Sunset says we see this all the time,
nevermind never you mind

the core.

growing pains of the heart...one of life's most confusing events. It affects you at your core. You have a choice...make the most of the time you have, or drown in your confusion. Follow your heart...it's the compass of your entire being.


current song: All I Ever Wanted- Train

a blog from bed.

there's something so great about walking outside to the backyard and not hearing a sound. I waited out there for several minutes looking at the stars, waiting for something...anything. Everyday is so loud at home...I wake up to car horns and traffic on the 405 right outside my window. I fall asleep to the buzz of the telephone wires and people having arguments on the main street with their car windows rolled down. It felt good to take a break from that routine. Last night the rain fell so hard I thought it would come through the roof. The thunderstorm and Van Morrison on the radio... the perfect sounds at that moment.

roadtrip!!



i love it when photographs make me want to go on a roadtrip through the countryside. i need to smell sagebrush and count water towers. maybe it's time to get out of the city for awhile...i think i will.

music that moves me

i feel this album in my bone marrow. every song. here is a preview...

the winter's marked the earth
it's floored with frozen glass
you slip into my arms
and you quickly correct yourself

your freezing speech bubbles
seem to hold your words aloft
i want the smoky clouds of laughter
to swim about me forever more

I will race you to the waterside
and from the edge of Ireland shout out loud
so they could hear it in america
it's all for you

the shells crack under our shoes
like punctuation points
the planets bend between us
and a hundred million suns and stars

the sea filled with silence
before you said those words
and now even in the darkness
i can see how happy you are.

a great quote.

"giving yourself over to someone else...
defending yourself until finally you surrender
and feel heaven break over you"
