try and steal this

We spent half the day in the nearest metropolis: population 10,000-big enough to have a Target, a decent Chinese restaurant, and a movie theater with more than one screen. I found a headlamp for my bike and bought a pair of argyle-patterned shoelaces for an older pair of Chucks and lingered over pens and post-it notes while she picked up mysterious

Thank you.

These posts make me so happy, for you and life in general.

When I was growing up, I wrote mostly when I was sad or upset. As I get older, it's these moments of quiet happiness that I find myself most wanting to chronicle and keep -- maybe because after all these years they still surprise me.

I remember riding in the dark with you, singing. (: I always think of that when I think of visiting you.

This is a beautiful post, beautifully-written and beautiful in its meaning. It makes me want to have Thanksgiving with you.

I would love to have Thanksgiving with you sometime. (renenet's coming again this year! And bringing another keg of root beer!)

And I remember that night too; it's one of the ones I was thinking of. ::hugs::

I haven't had root beer in probably two decades. I'm intrigued.

Unfortunately, while there are few offenses in my family worthy of excommunication, missing Thanksgiving with my parents is one of them. The only way it could happen is if my folks themselves decided to be on a trip somewhere. You never know...

::hugs:: We should just make up our own food-centered holiday and get together for *that*. And there could be singing in the dark, too.
