What if your making me all that I was ment to be...

Surrounded by snow makes me thing of the summers of my youth.
I grew up in Brooklyn and we happened to have a really fantastic backyard.
I was thinking of the times when the grass was overgrown and I would just lay in it and feel the sun shining on my face, in my opinion the color green will always smell of grass.

I miss those days and I think I totally took them for granted.
I can not wait for summer or really just for the sun to come out.

When spring hits I think I'm going to take advantage of the things that I haven't done in forever. So here's a list of things I want to do and try as soon at the temperature reaches 75 degrees.
  1. Go to the zoo.
  2. Hang out in Central Park (aka Zoo, Strawberry fields/imagine, carousel, skating, row boat, bike)
  3. Go to the aquarium
  4. Have a picnic
  5. Build a fort
  6. Go to a Fair and or Carnival
  7. Beach
  8. Circus
  9. Eat outdoors at a restaurant.

and last but not least...

10. Swing on a swing (the old school kind that is like steel and rusting)


I loved swinging when I was a kid. I brings back so many fantastic times in my life that I spent with my Great Grandma, she would take me to the park down the street from her house and swing me for hours it never got old.

She has to be one of the most amazing women I have ever had the pleasure of knowing...

*Side Note* I love that Lady so much and I wish everyday I have half the fire in my belly she has.

A Fox in the Garden Photomanipulation!

So I was fooling around in photoshop and came up with a photomanipulation for a lyric that has been running thru my head for like a week.
The lyric in question:
"Don't go to bed in the garden, I'll be throwing apples away, When on ones awake"
The lyric is from a band that is sadly no longer together called Paper Rival.
The song is called A Fox in the Garden
Amazing music!
So yeah this is what I came up with...

So burdened by talent, my fingers bleed...

I am going to be updating my Etsy shop in a few days


I'm in the process of getting everything ready.
I am really excited but scared at the same time, It's always a risk putting yourself out there.
It's almost like throwing your heart down on the kitchen table and saying "Do as you will"
Here is a poorly drawn comic to express what I mean:I think I might make "Drawing My Words" more frequent around here.

Everyone knows that I love over explained scenarios!

(Well not really everyone, and why would everyone know that or care...)

So yeah, I used to want to be a Graphic novel artist I used to enter contest and stuff but for some reason, that escapes me currently, I stopped. I think I like the first box of my poorly drawn comic the most.

Where was I going with this?...

Oh yeah my Etsy store, I plan on hopefully opening it like Thursday or Friday. So Wish me luck and I'll talk to all of you later..

( Who is this "all of you" and "everyone" I keep referring to. All of like 3 people read my blog...)

Side Note~ Thanks to all of the people that actually read the blog!~

The Heart string_______

Every night before I close my lids,
I imagine a white string that connects my heart to yours,
I tug on it to make sure your still there, in hopes that you'll tug back.
I have never seen your face but I know one day my tired eyes will see you as you are.
The lines of your furrowed brows, your smile.
All the things about you I will come to treasure.
The way you will sit next to me when you find me drawing at 3am.
I think of this when I tug on my heart string.
Your the one that will accept me.
I am the one that will accept you.
Always.
So when I tug please tug back and I know I will find you soon.

I write down words with cathartic intentions

So right this second I am sitting in a store and
I felt for some reason that this was an appropriate place to blog.
I am waiting for one of my wards to get out of Karate class.
SO Lets do a quick update shall we...

Life thus far:
Still doing nothing but in dilatory state I have decided to take this time to improve myself.
Don't get me wrong I have been looking for work but I haven't found any yet.
So right now I am really working on my French, I want to visit France again but this time with a working knowledge of the language.
Also I want to travel a lot more, I have a goal and it's to see the world before I am 30. I have to sit down and really compile a list of the places I have been...
Maybe I will make that a post in itself.

Also I am really bummed right now something funky is going on with my car and not really in a good way. I am kind of worried because with out my car I am useless.
Really...useless...

To be honest I really can't see myself with out my car, and I can not afford a new one, maybe my worrying is a little premature but My car is like an extension of myself. What will I do without it....

Now that I have put myself in a panic frenzy, I am done writing for now.
Talk to you guys soon and hopefully I won't be car-less.
