full circle with the lip tissue

» Lips are weird. They're skin, but they're not normal skin.
« Yeah, true. They're half in your mouth and half on your face.
» Outside skin is all dry and lives on land, while the rest of your organ tissue basically lives under water.
« If outside skin is land creatures and inside tissue is underwater breathers, then lips are... amphibians.
» And amphibians are weird.

prayer one-liner

I'm thankful to be leaving a clean house for a good job on a nice day.

1 Nephi 11:21–23 (and the most joyous)

1. Knowest thou the meaning of the tree which thy father saw?
2. Yea, it is the love of God, which sheddeth itself abroad in the hearts of the children of men; wherefore, it is the most desirable above all things.
3. Yea, and the most joyous to the soul.

oh humans. and bands.

• I tried to like them, but it never worked for me. But I tried so hard, because they had street-cred.
• It’s funny once you realize you’ve put way too much effort into trying to like a band.
• Yeah. I have done it many times. You try so hard because it seems like you SHOULD like them. When it’s something that is so trivial. If you don’t like a band when you first hear them, why on earth would you keep trying? Like it’s a chore?
• Yeah. It is a mission you must accomplish. Or else you are a failure.

touché, fiancée

• How are you, Natalie?
• Good. How are you... ummm...
• You forgot my name?!
• And you forgot mine. It's Crystal.

r.i.p. fresh basil

Though it may be dead and tossed over the fence now, thanks so much for the gift of fresh basil. It has been so delicious.
Dead and tossed over the fence?!
Nature at its finest. And cruelest.

Got an address.
Yes! Put it on the list!
