25th December//Everything But The Girl

And I see forests and it’s the 25th of December
and my old man plays the piano for Christmas.
He plays the piano for Christmas.

And we’re all there, all the aunties and uncles,
and the angel’s on the top of the tree.
Up there on the top of the tree.

And I never, no I never ever realized.
And I never, no I never ever realized.

Have I enough time, have I just some time,
to revisit, to go back, to return, to open my mouth again
and say something different this time.

And I see bags of newspaper and a car in the carport,
and you’re a grown up and still unsure,
and I’m thirty and I don’t know nothing no more.

And I never, no I never ever realized.
And I never, no I never ever realized.

And I’m sitting, sitting on the top of the stairs,
and you’re crying out on the towpath by the river
with all the swans and all the people walking by.

And all of a sudden I’m struck with an urge to unlock a door
with a key that’s too big for my hands
and I drop it, and it falls at your feet.

Come on, come on, it’s there at your feet.
And I never, no I never ever realized.
And I never, no I never ever realized.

Tonight a table I was serving noticed my abnormally long index fingers. (They’re the same length as my middle fingers.) I think they thought I was embarrassed (never) and decided to compensate with tip. Thank you and thank you.

the time when i really, really, really do not want to even think about dating is, apparently, the best time to sweep me off my feet

Congratulations. You’re doing it. And doing it in style.

WHAT. This. Is. Perfect. I will be in Chicago just in time for opening. Seth looks like Joan of Arc and Wes looks like my wildest dreams come true (because he is). So beautiful.

alaskamiller:

hey, babe, let’s get a barn and live in the woods. i got some night vision goggles and a nerf sniper rifle to catch game. you just do your artsy, creative, things. it’ll be okay. it’ll be fine. we’ll play beer ping pong. is that what people play? beer ping pong? i didn’t go to college, i don’t know what you kids do with those red cups. i think it would be pretty cool if it rained every day and i get to drink tomato soup and have grilled cheese sandwiches.

yes to everything except beer pong. our homemade brew will be far too delicious to spill.

Here’s an idea: make a wonderfully shot documentary about the first year of four babies’ lives around the world. We saw this preview before Where the Wild Things Are, and the theater cheered like they just saw a new Batman teaser.

Are you sitting down? Because you’re about to get the shit kicked out of you by cuteness.

1. nightly and very early morning viewing of a starry sky

2. vegetarian chili made from absolute scratch, hard beans and e’rything

3. frisbee forever with the best dog

4. better care in the form of: vitamins, water, stretching, breathing, writing and not showing anyone, especially myself

5. direct deposits and a photo of the ocean taped to my wallet to remember the plan (that’s tattooed on my eyelids and inside my ribs)

6. grocery stores called Schnucks (shh-nooks) and French streets with Midwestern dialects

7. cutting my family’s hair on the porch

8. listening to the same album over and over and over and loving something new every time

9. declarations

10. my long fingers: in the morning dough, in the wet earth, around the fresh eggs, around the cold wheel, between frets, between yours

my life in 30 years.

my nightmare! imagine you are a small, chicken-legged, androgynous child entering your grandmother’s house to this, except the cats are feral and inbred and more numerous than this. now you know where my fear began.

“Do not dismiss a book until you have written one, and do not dismiss a movie until you have made one, and do not dismiss a person until you have met them. It is a fuckload of work to be open-minded and generous and understanding and forgiving and accepting, but Christ, that is what matters. What matters is saying yes.”
