LOVE: sex drugs rock n roll, live music, dancing my fucking ass off, snowboarding, everything biology, a summer day in the park, night hikes, snow up top in moonlight, starry skies in dark places, my dog's excitement to see me every morning, taking trails just to see where they go, napping on the beach, the smooth squishy feeling of walking on slush, disco balls, filthy dirty drum n bass, swimming in the ocean and in rivers, watching dead leaves blow around, glitter and other shiny things, solo road trips, hot grilled cheese when the bread is crispy on the outside and the cheese is drippy on the inside, smells: hot tar, wet pavement, ferns after rain, the ocean when i haven't been there in a while... mountain biking, sleeping under the stars, bonfires, nyc, vermont, telluride, and truro, very sharp cheddar (and all types of cheese except the hot garbage smelling kind), remembering dreams, surreal art, spring baby tree leaves in new england, cicadas and crickets, dancing barefoot in the grass, immense sand dunes, outer space, miniature things, newness, puppy dogs, halloween, baby blankets, pillow top mattresses, memory foam, christmas stockings, ativan, white fluffy things. HATE: shoes and socks, fishy tasting fish, running out of hot water, places with no palm trees, boredom, water that tastes metallic, when miniscule hairs get stuck in my throat, cleaning up dog puke when i have a crippling hangover.
"the only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk,mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars..."
~Jack Kerouac
