there's fine, fine line between love and a waste of time.

About Me


Davis, Laura L. <[i>dey-vis, lawr-uh] noun 1985 - present.
Every day is Christmas,
and every night is New Year's Eve.
"Don't mess with me, boys. This ain't my first time at the rodeo."
- easily annoyed and prone to infatuation with a strong aversion to liars, traffic and weird smells.
- definitely not stupid. knows more than you think she does.
- believes in multiple soulmates, that the best results come from focusing on the details and that if she wishes hard enough on yellow lights, whatever she wishes for will come true.
- infinitely interested in the inner workings of machinery, sunny days, macro photos, messy book shelves, and sea blue chiffon.
- hates being told what to do, when someone makes plans with her, then cancels without informing her, excessive body hair, and when people "preach to the choir."
- strives for and appreciates good organizational skills, incredible vocabulary skills, and bowhunting skills.
- is very picky about relationships. gets freaked out about growing old, and when people she knows get married.
- loves all things that warm her heart, including, but not limited to: her daddy, cats, photos, and friends. weddings, unabashed displays of affection, surprises, old people, going on dates, and handwritten letters.
- will kiss you if you send her a post card.
- will probably take over the world, someday.
I want to be
like the waves on the sea,
like the clouds in the wind,
but I'm me.
One day I'll jump
out of my skin.
I'll shake the sky
like a hundred violins.
- Sandra Cisneros
Gandhi said
"be the change
you want to see
in the world,"
fuck that.
be the trouble
you want to see
in the world
