playing and listening to music, reading, writing, taking long drives, cheeb, diners, bars, beaches, mini golf courses, wiffle ball, working out but still being skinny as hell, the shore, the sun, thinking wondering and dreaming, film, the city.
"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 and in the middle you see the blue centerlight pop and everybody goes "Awww!" -JACK KEROUAC, On The Road
