    Me: Is that the same popcorn from the pyre days ago? Him: Yes. Me: You’re eating old popcorn? Him: No. I am eating aged popcorn. Keep telling yourself that.

    Got to hang out with Fabian and Belinda on Saturday. We all worked together to stucco Grandma Maria’s house so she could move in! Belinda would make a little kissy face and insist that we lean down for a kiss on the cheek. Getting her little kiss on the side of my face was one of those rare, beautiful, sublime moments. Just incredible.

    Shake it Out

    Have you ever really examined the lyrics to Florence’s “Shake it Out”? I love them. This song is so good. It really speaks to the inner me.  The me that is always striving to shake off my struggles, insecurities, anxieties, and embrace grace. I just love it.

    Regrets collect like old friends
    Here to relive your darkest moments
    I can see no way, I can see no way
    And all of the ghouls come out to play
    And every demon wants his pound of flesh
    But I like to keep some things to myself
    I like to keep my issues drawn
    It’s always darkest before the dawn

    And I’ve been a fool and I’ve been blind
    I can never leave the past behind
    I can see no way, I can see no way
    I’m always dragging that horse around
    And our love is pastured such a mournful sound
    Tonight I’m gonna bury that horse in the ground
    So I like to keep my issues drawn
    But it’s always darkest before the dawn

    Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh woaaah
    Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh woaaaah
    And it’s hard to dance with a devil on your back
    So shake him off, oh woah

    I am done with my graceless heart
    So tonight I’m gonna cut it out and then restart
    Cause I like to keep my issues drawn
    It’s always darkest before the dawn

    austinandellen: literally, we are in graduate school. why are we doing this?!?! Ellen summed up our day in this picture: doing pointless things and complaining about it. Can we say, “senioritis”? I do draw an awesome river with a raft though, right?

    Love this quote

    austinandellen:

    Death is not the opposite of life but of birth. Life is the continuum of birth & death.

    Lee Fields & The Expressions - “Ladies”

    I’ve been listening to this song all morning and, while I realize that the general tone of the song is implying a less than monogamous lifestyle, I want to dedicate it to my lovely wife, Joanna, nonetheless. 

    “You’re sugar. You’re spice and everything nice.
    A man is incomplete without a lady in his life.
    You can take a bad day and make it turn out right.
    You can take a blind soul and make him see the light.
    You can take a broken heart and make it new again.
    Or you can break his heart and make him less than a man.
    You can make a man feel like a king.”
