Painting couches, where's Waldo on the back of Life cereal boxes, looking for starfish in tidepools, watching the end of the land before time, finding seashells, consructing sandkingdoms big enough to live in, collecting buttons and bottlecaps to store in my suitcase, otterpops, tetris, the moon, oposable thumbs, music, vegan anything, demitri martin, playing the ukelele, bubblewrap, velcro, dancing in the rain while wearing galoshes, just dancing in the rain in general, creating umbrellas, puffpaint, pretending the glow-in-the-dark stars on my wall are real constellations, riding my bike down big hills super-fast, hedgehogs, platypi, octopi, lemurs, hippos, penguins, chewing gum sculptures, making left-handed comic books with my dog, botany, lawn gnomes, uno-playing at 4 am.
I'd like to meet:
I want to meet someone who will laugh at my jokes (even if I've told them before and they were never funny to begin with), and who will dance in the rain with me. Someone who likes to ride thier bike down big hills really fast. And someone who will have no problem pretending it's their birthday at chevy's so we can get a free hat!
I want to meet someone who will not get annoyed at me when I sing the wrong words slightly off key to songs that used to be popular, but are now just one hit wonders. Someone who collects old buttons and would like to trade with me. Someone who can play the kazoo AND the tambourine. Simultaneously.
In tune to the Ukelele.
And someone who would like to play uno with me at 4 am.
Someone who likes sour patch kids, just not the red ones, so that I don't have to eat the yellow ones anymore.
Someone who is good enough at staring contests to challenge me- but not so good that my eyes get stuck.
Someone who can skip and sing "follow the yellow brick road" for at least a mile and a half.
And who will stop and wait a couple of seconds when I have to stop to use my inhaler...
Someone who will tolerate incoherrant ramblings and rants regardless of relevancy at 3:27AM on occasion.
Someone who will not make fun of me for being ridiculous, and who will not leave me for being unbearable. Someone who will stick around. Even though I can't say I'd do the same.
(someone CRAZY!)...
and
Joan of Arc, Mitch Hedberg, Marlin Brando would be nice too.
