this is my favorite "happy song," because it reminds me so much of this summer. hearing shiny toy guns outside at the festival with Kate... spending the summer with the whole of alpha complex pretty much to myself... coming home after work, sitting out in the sun with a book & reading until dinner... blasting it in the car on my way to who-knows-where. st. pete. service-learning. new self-confidence. randy's wedding. my expectations for this new chapter in my life that was about to begin. i knew where i was going, and i knew it was where i needed to be. and i was so excited.

that's what this song means to me. so much. hope. happiness.

my favorite "low key song" (not "sad song" because really it's not that) is "Just For Now" by Imogen Heap. Imogen Heap who pretty much sustained me throughout the fall of 2006. seeing her in December, at the end of that dreary semester... like a bookend to close a pretty dreary time in my life. and after that... the first memory i have is happy: the wedding. January 2007. the best dance ever.

my mom is here visiting now & it's nice, except i wish that i had more time for her. i wish that i had more time for work. family & work just don't mix right now... right now i'm having to choose each day which i will sacrifice for the other. i hope i'm making the right decisions.
