To follow up the last post

words from a friend:
I'm not sure what my advice is except this: crayons are meant to cover pages, so cover some pages with your new ones and soon they'll be broken, too. Or maybe not broken; maybe just older and lived-in and perfect.

Couldn't have said it better.
Thank you M

The last time I had a garage sale, I sold half of my possessions thinking I would raise a ton of money in a short amount of time...
I made about $350, but now I lament the fact that I only have one pair of jeans, and the rest of my wardrobe consists mostly of tapered sweatpants and booty shorts :(

Of all the things I wish I hadn't sold,
I regret selling my ziplock bag of broken crayons that I had kept since elementary school, the same crayons I had used in college to highlight my textbooks on the rare occassions when I actually studied.

Shortly after the garage sale I bought a brand new box of 64 Crayola crayons, but they're so pretty and sharp and new that I don't want to use them,
so they sit unused in a box under my desk.

Some things are better broken, I think.

as usual, this is a metaphor for something else

A few things I learned

Be careful when attempting to teach first graders Sudoku; there's a good chance they will cry, and throw their pencils.

Playing on monkey bars in your high-heels is kind of dangerous.

Ninja turtles are timeless.

The "bad" kids just need a little confidence.

Red or blue fruit roll-ups are the best, even though they all taste the same.

Kids are soooo funny.

Goodbyes are hard :(

i don't want to fight with you anymore

i really hate how I let things bother me, i'm so sensitive (but in my defense I'm a Cancer.. it's my nature)
and once again i spent most of the night staring at my ceiling.

but today, driving home on the 605N i had a freakin epiphany when I passed the Hawaiian Gardens Casino...

WHAT IS THE POINT?


what is the point? what is the point? what is the point what.is.the.point??

why am i bitter about something i don't want anymore? why am i hurt, why do i care about something you did in the past or about something you say to me now, when it doesn't matter anymore?
it doesn't matter anymore.

so you can do your thing
i aint mad atcha (i always wanted to say that! yeahh)
and i won't fight with you anymore.

in other news
my wisdom teeth are growing in so my other teeth have been moving around a bit
and when i bite down it feels like one of my two front teeth has shifted ever-so-slightly forward from the rest of the pack
and i'm paranoid and having nightmares that my little snaggletoof will turn black
man, these are the things that matter :)
