My favorite part of my day, and i've had a busy day, was reading this story i wrote and listening to "American Pie".

I'm not really vain, maybe i am i don't know, but I'm reading part of this and I'm really happy at the little jokes and bits in there.

I haven't edited it at all yet, i'm waiting til this weekend to start that.

Here's the part I liked.

Then her.
Nadie rolling up her shirt-sleeves. Long dress trailing to the floor. Barefoot. Her hair still clipped back by beretts, but a few strands hanging across her face. Her mouth is curled up slightly on one side as if she's thinking of something she wants to do later in the day in order to get through a difficult task.
I told my father when I was a young man that I would never get married. He was getting to be an old man, but he still managed to dangle me out a window three stories up.
Nadie slipping her hand into a boxing glove, glancing straight at the viewer
"This is what love feels like, son," he told me, "Its terrifying, but you feel alive, don't you?"
I was too busy screaming.
Hate to admit it, but that old bastard was right.

Anyway, I hope everyone is well.
