worn out shoes

this is lovely.
it's making my heart smile right now...
i hope it makes you smile as well...

"there's a hole in the roof for the stars to fall in
i gather them up for you
fill up my pockets, start walking again
bringing these stars to you
bringing these stars to you
bringing these stars to you again..."

again with this smirk.

i feel like i've been neglecting this this semester...
i should probably change that.
today it's sunny in muncie.
my heart hasn't settled down since i first saw the sun this morning through my cracked blinds.
yes, muncie. you got it goin' on today.
i know that valentine's day has come and gone...
but when i look at the fake evergreen in our living room, still decorated for valentines...
i can't help but feel giddy.
something you should know about me is..
i don't need a holiday to talk about love.
or tell people how dear they are to me.
so i'm going to take this opportunity today.

things i love today:
1. the warmth of the sunshine. i was outside without a hat or mittens and didn't feel cold.
i can almost feel spring.
2. playing the "let's guess where the snow isn't slush" game as i walk to class.
3. playing fetch with my cat... yes. the cat plays fetch. be impressed
4. the vegetarian chili made last night that was reheated to be the perfect lunch
5. a handful of semi-sweet chocolate chips
6. the smell of the newspaper sitting next to me
7. listening to the glee soundtrack. make fun all you want, i can't get enough of it.
8. goldfish....
9. the idea of making banana chocolate chip muffins next week
10. mocassins....

what do you love today?
what's making your heart dance.
whatever it is..i hope that you aren't able to wipe a silly grin from your face.
