Witty words

i think we just broke up...

2010-11-13T23:39:00.000-08:00

The Witty words of Tandy-mandy
is now
Heart to Heart.

(sorry blogger. i kind of sort of have a crush on tumblr now.)

yes, i know.

2010-10-21T00:20:00.001-07:00

I have been a turdy blogger lately.

Haven't had much to post on i guess.

BUT.
right now. It's 12:22am and i am making cookies. Crazy me. I believe with all my [heart] baking is so much better in the middle of the night. Forever.

I have a whole list of things to do.
Packages to mail.
Details to work out.
Homework to do.
It can get overwhelming. o my.

Cookies are calling my name to come out of the oven.
Goodnight world.

love.mandy.♥

tired eyes

2010-10-13T08:46:00.000-07:00

hello three o'clock in the morning.
i couldn't sleep last night.
it was atrocious.
so, i got up.
i put my grey turtle neck sweater on.
blared "The Fray" through some headphones.
finished my homework.
and tumblr[ed].

it turned out rather nice.

smashing day to you my dears.

love.mandy.

i dare say i didn't like you much today.

2010-10-12T20:44:00.000-07:00

Today was melancholy.
And i'm glad it's over.

love.mandy.

gardens grow on paper

2010-10-05T21:11:00.000-07:00

I went babysitting tonight. Ahlee and i drew a garden picture together.
[p.s.- i liiiike how little children's brains work.]

It feels like it's the end of the week already. But really it's only tuesday. Goodness me.
[I think lots of naps are in order to get through the week. TRUE.]

And it's finally starting to feel like Fall. The first day. I bid summer a bittersweet goodbye.

Dear summer,
i bid you farewell.
i will miss you.
love, me.

Dear autumn,
i'm beginning to adore you.
i really think it's time for you and i to be friends.
love, me.

Hope life is joy to all you.
Love.Mandy.

i was rather blunt today. or at least i thought so.

2010-09-30T23:42:00.000-07:00

I think i'm getting sick.
And i'm just dreading the thought. Goodness.

Bend today.
Poster passing was smashing.
Benefit concert this weekend.
Now they all know.
It was a goodly job.

Homework. Almost done.[phew]

And.
I really like this song.

love.mandy.♥

sometimes #2

2010-09-27T20:07:00.000-07:00

Sometimes i wish i could play piano, but i just watch instead.

Sometimes i put my hair in the highest of high buns and dance around my room.

Sometimes i think i could stay up all night talking with friends.

Sometimes i like to think i overflow my oatmeal on purpose, but it's always an accident.

Sometimes i don't like it when people say my name cause of how they say it.

Sometimes i wonder if it's possible to drink to much tea.

Sometimes i could sit and watch the OFFICE for hours.

Sometimes i yell for no reason at all.

Sometimes i'm scared of the dark, but when Priscilla is with me it's a different story.

Sometimes i have a sudden urge to dump cereal all over the floor.(i have yet to do it.)

Sometimes i talk to myself.

That's sometimes, only sometimes.

(note: see "sometimes post #1" HERE.)

back.

2010-09-27T19:42:00.000-07:00

Eugene was lovely.
It was all so beautiful that i can't remember everything.
Kind of like a big blur of gorgeousness.
Exactly.
P.s.- kazoo wars with ria are the bessssst.

Priscilla took a lot of good pictures.

love.mandy.

patricia and i are road tripping.(+ria)

2010-09-22T20:10:00.000-07:00

Yesterday was senior picture photo shoot. I literally had smashing time.

Homework is being a butt.

Little seester little brother photo shoot today. They have some gorgeously wild personalities.
See below.[grin]

[little brother]

Tomorrow i leave with ria to Eugene. Road trips are always the best. I hear there's going to be knitting group, a juggling brothers show, and a chai tea date with a girl i've never met. It's going to be smashing. I'll be sure to bring "patricia".

Hope you have a rad week loves.
love.mandy.

2010-09-20T07:07:00.000-07:00

Good morning loves.

First day of class this morning.
I'm excited and nervous.
And excited and nervous.
But mostly just excited.
It's going to be smashing.
I can tell.

babygirl...

2010-09-17T10:25:00.000-07:00

It was my birthday yesterday.
I think i'm overwhelmed with how jolly it was. true.

I went and did college stuff with pappy in the morning. O my. Such confusion. But then we went to costco, and i shopped like a mad woman. Pushing the cart makes me feel so powerful. But one thing...i think pushing carts is kind of like driving. And that makes me a reckless driver. GOSH. I almost caused like 12 collisions.
Plus. I went to Petco. New fish. I call her 'babygirl'. See photo below.*grin*
And i came home to a beautiful cake. Well, actually, i came home home to a beautiful girl yelling at the beautiful cake. She didn't think it was that beautiful. But it was.
Oh.
And i did-the all famous-birthday hunt. I ended up getting a smashing amount of gifts. I feel so spoiled. Literally.
I think i could burst at how happy i am right now.

p.s.- i am in camera heaven.(;

TicketsLove.

2010-09-16T10:42:00.000-07:00

you know what?

2010-09-09T22:43:00.000-07:00

i think every girl should have three pairs of high heels.
my favourite colour changes every single day.
i will always have a love for bread.
in my brain, orchids are the most romantic thing eveeeeer.
i could stand outside in the rain for hours.
sometimes i wish i had a really big vocabulary.
i have dreams of my first car being a "VW' bug.[yes please.]
i will splurge on J. Crew one day.
when i'm older, i will run around my house in my *gasp* undies.
i love eating breakfast for lunch, lunch for dinner, and dinner for breakfast.
i've been scared of the dark since i was like four years old.
i secretly want to be on 'The Biggest Loser'.
i hope to always have good neighbours. and be a good neighbour too.
i loathe talking on the phone.
i plan on crying when i actually get to go to a "John Mayer' concert.
if i ever have an early morning job i will have to set twenty alarms to wake myself up.
...
love.mandy.

precisely.

my messy table.

2010-09-08T11:22:00.000-07:00

[our table is a mess this week. a good mess though.]
Mostly Bell and Papa's fault. Literally.

Back from WA[shington]. It was lovely. To lovely to explain.
The weekend seriously feels like it's been blurred together into a jumble of gorgeousness. I would do it all over again if i could. Every single bit of it.

Tuesday.
I went on a seester walk.
Dear Fran,
you are a doll. my doll.
Love, Mandy.
p.s.-you are 'HAWT'.♥

xc meet this weekend.

College stuff this week.
And.
My birthday is in Seven days. Oh JEAH[!]

Hope you are having a jolly day dears.
Love you muchly.

xoxo, me.

p.s.- i do so believe i'm picking out a new fish tomorrow. *grin*

road+trip.

2010-09-03T11:21:00.000-07:00

[photo via]

Heading off to WA. today.
I packed my cowgirl boots.
I packed my toothbrush.
I practically packed my house.
(Yes, i over-packed.)
Which by the way is so much better than under-packing.

I'll be back soon.

I promise.

Love. Mandy.

'SLR' love.

2010-09-02T18:54:00.000-07:00

I call her Miss Brady

2010-09-01T17:10:00.000-07:00

That girl, yes, she got those lamps for free. Can't you tell? I can. And i'm pretty sure the only cute thing in that picture is her. Literally. I call them her 'poop lamps'. They remind me of the 'Brady Bunch.' BAHA. She's taking them with her when she moves. Thank goodness. I'll miss her like heck, but i have to say otherwise for the lamps.

Love.Mandy.

dead fish floating in my bowl.

2010-08-31T22:02:00.000-07:00

Trathaniel died today.
Mmm...yeah, i just said that. Even though i never wanted to.
I was listening to JOHN MAYER['my stupid mouth'] when i glanced up at him. DEAD. In his little bowl. I thought i would hate that song after that. But i can't hate 'john mayer'. Ever.
So, i put my head in my pillow, screamed, and then moved on.
Coming this next week i'm going to pick out a new one. It's like pressing the restart button. But it will be different. A good different.
Love.Mandy.
and.
R.I.P. Trathaniel.

it will be the death of me...

2010-08-31T13:55:00.000-07:00

This is Bell.
[And this is my rebuttal to her post on her blog.]

Her middle name just might be GORGEOUS.

Seriously. I don't think she knows how pretty she is. (note: BOYS, keep away. love, ME.)

Amidst all the gorgeousness of her lovely face, [i believe] she's gonna kill me with her driving one day. No kidding. I wouldn't call her the best stick driver in the world.(but i wouldn't call her the worst either. thank goodness.) And yes, maybe i am the worlds worst backseat driver EVER.[see here.] But i just can't help myself when it comes to her. Literally. I was thinking about getting out of the car while she crossed the intersection.
I was just to cute to die today.[and so was she.]

On another note:

Mama's bird-day tonight. She doesn't even know. And speaking of not knowing, no one knows how old she is. GOSH. We all just kind of pretend.

Pancakes for dinner tonight. Ria's request on her last day of work. I will be making them.

Conference in just [3]days.

And.
Bell and i went to collage info meeting today.
Helllllo confusing. So much to do i tell you.
Ugh.

Love. Mandy.
[the girl that could die any day.]

Get a hold of yourself(!!!!)

2010-08-31T13:53:00.000-07:00

true.

2010-08-29T09:31:00.000-07:00

Love.Mandy.♥

When...

2010-08-27T00:06:00.001-07:00

When i have my own house...
...it will have rooms covered in WALLPAPER.
...a very large kitchen.
...and a turquoise couch.
...i'll have a swing set in my backyard.
...and orchids planted in my front yard.
...i dream of having two ovens.(selfish, i know.)
...i will have a cupboard stalked with tea.
...and i'll make my bread every sunday.

But for now, i don't have any of that.
DARN.

love.mandy.

how many years has it been?

2010-08-26T12:42:00.000-07:00

Mommy: "why do i like self defense so much?"
Daddy: "Cause you need to watch out for my love."

(corny? no, i think adorable.)

It's their anniversary(SOMETIME THIS WEEK). They both claim it's on a different day. And they both told me they've been married a different number of years. I don't know who to believe anymore. So, no specific details will be given.

But.
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO MUM AND DAD.
(you two are a kick butt couple.)(!!!)

Love. Mandy.

Dog Days Are Over

2010-08-25T11:04:00.000-07:00

mandy, i can't take you.

2010-08-24T09:55:00.000-07:00

john.mayer.♥

That's what they told me when i asked. And then my heart broke.

Dream number 1("Go to a JOHN MAYER concert.") will not be coming true anytime soon. I could almost cry. 4 hours 50 minutes away, George WA, August 28th, 7 O'clock, tickets for sale right this very second, and one girl dying to go.

Know this...
JOHN MAYER, i will get to you one day.

Love.mandy.

summer is almost over.

2010-08-24T09:23:00.000-07:00

dancing cashier...no thank you.

2010-08-22T19:06:00.000-07:00

miriam. yes, she has rad shoes.

This weekend has been a smattering of joy. Literally.
We had visitors. Lots of them too.
Nat, Roger, and jim.(+nat's dad.)

They came and played music. It was like having a free concert in my living room. Front row seats. Yeah baby.*grin*

And we all went "busking" together SATURDAY night. It was good. I like the feeling i get when i watch my seester play. (kind of like..."yeah, that's my seester. be jealous.") Cause i totally know people are. Ria and i went to SAFEWAY on the way home. 11:30. I went and bought us muffins while she took a trip to the bathrooms. It turned out my cashier liked to dance. (like a cowgirl.)

Kind of weird if you ask me. Somehow, i think she got the better deal.nat. busking.

Tonight. Hollywood Bowl. California. JOHN MAYER. And Davey Rose gets to go.
Need i say more?
(i'm to jealous to explain.)

And here comes the week. All i have to say is, "LETS DO IT."

Love. Mandy.

p.s.(to ria)-
if you had a butt as big as i
you would have eaten to much pie.
shaBAM.

ten birthday dreams.

2010-08-20T12:41:00.000-07:00

I've been thinking about birthdays lately.
Particularly mine. What i want. What i don't. All that jazz.
Here's a little list.
And maybe some of this will happen this year, maybe it will happen when i turn 72. All i know, is i really want it to happen.

"TEN things."

1. I would die to go to a "John Mayer" concert. Literally.(but i would make sure i died afterwards, cause before would just be a tragedy.)

2. I want to go stargazing.

3. I want Steve Carrel to come to my party. Bell already said no. Darn it. Instead we can just watch the office and dance to the theme song when it comes on.

4. I want a big thing of balloons. And then i wanna let them go(while making wishes.).

5. I want chocolate cake.

6. And talking about cake, i want to smash somebodies head into a cake.

7. I've always wanted a LOVELY trip to the beach.

8. I want a bouquet of flowers.

9. I want to laugh so hard my stomach hurts.

10. And i want to be happier than i was the birthday before.

I think it will all happen. One day...

Love, mandy.

little town of disappointment

2010-08-18T22:33:00.000-07:00

(I've been a blog slacker lately.)

Today went swell.
So much better than yesterday.
I spent it with jen.
We ran around town. Literally.

Dearest town that i live in,
You have an enormous lack of floaties for sale. Seriously.
Thirteen stores and i come out with zip.
Summers not even over yet.
GOSH.

28 days till my bird-day. OH JEAH.

Muffins on the brain right now.
Ever since this morning.
Maybe i'll go scourer the kitchen for some ingredients.

Love, mandy.

on my little RED chair.

2010-08-16T19:46:00.000-07:00

I ran around in my seester's vintage prom dress today.
Yes, it was JOLLY.
♥

Love, mandy.

sun[day]

2010-08-15T16:38:00.000-07:00

LAKE DAY.[today]

It was brilliant.
Almost as good as the beach. (but nothing can beat the BEACH.)(true.)

SUMMER IS ALMOST OVER. gosh.

(dot)(dot)(dot)
Church was good. Every single smattering bit of it. Acts 4.

I'm playing "Biggest Loser" with jen.
Thirty-seven days.
Ten pounds to be lost.
Good food to be eaten.
Thousands of crunches to be done.
And miles and miles and miles to run.
IT WILL BE DONE.

32 days left till my birthday. Yeah baby.

I have a slew of letters to go write. (My hand will fall off by the time i'm done. Literally.)
Hope you have a smashing rest of sunday left.

Love, mandy.

w.edd.ing.

I WILL DIE soon.

Much love,
Mandy.

2010-08-12T22:17:00.000-07:00

I walked to the cul-de-sac today.
Alone.
My blanket wrapped around me and all.
Laying in the middle of the empty street.

Praying. Praying. Praying.

About anything and everything.
I like days like that.

Love, mandy.♥

[tap]

2010-08-12T22:10:00.000-07:00

Ginger and Fred. One day i will be like her. Yes please.

I have a pair of tap shoes.
I feel like "Ginger Rogers" whenever i put them on.
It's a pretty good feeling too.
Kind of like you can do anything.

And...
Once upon a time, there lived a messy room. Then it was CLEANED. shaBAM.

Tomorrow:
Oatmeal.Flax.Brownsugar.
Little tykes sport camp.
Writing letters.
And whatever else comes to mind.

I have a date with my toothbrush now.(be jealous.)
Goodnight dears.

Love, mandy.

warning.

2010-08-12T14:01:00.001-07:00

Bell got a job today. shaBAM.

DAIRY QUEEN GIRL.
I think it's darling. She thinks it's everything but darling. I think i'm right.
And you know what? All the boys that come into dairy queen are going to hit on the most adorable counter girl. But you know something else? They can't have her. They just don't know that yet.

Dear boys,
you will most likely walk up to that counter and order a dipped cone or ice cream of some sort.
all the while thinking about how much you want her phone number.
the pretty girl that couldn't work in the back cause she smiled to much.
i know you think you have a chance.
a chance with the most gorgeous girl in the world.
let me let you in on a secret:
before you even start thinking about making a move, think about if you want my foot in your throat.
Love, girl.(her seester.)

repeat.repeat.repeat.

2010-08-11T13:42:00.000-07:00

I'm sick.
I'm sitting on my deck.
I'm drinking chia tea.
I'm listening to "The office theme song" on repeat.
I'm missing friends.
I'm in love with the wind.
I'm craving milk.
I'm thinking i shouldn't drink it due to being sick.
AND
I'm feeling bittersweet.

Really, i am.

love, mandy.

in love with my muffins

2010-08-10T15:33:00.000-07:00

I feel LOVELY today. Mostly.
(minus the fact that i'm coming down with a cold. dear me.)

I have my jeans and blue t-shirt on. And i am completely satisfied. Literally. It's just that kind of day.

Little tykes sport camp.=♥

I made muffins for lunch. Banana muffins to be precise. (muffins make the world go round. true.) I burnt myself twice and made a BIG mess. Did you know i'm a messy cook? VERY. You have no idea. When i'm older, and married, i think my kitchen is always going to be a mess. (My poor future husband. Baha) And this equals LOVE.
Listen to it.
I was totally in the mood for it today.

Dance. Dance. Dance.

Hope you are having a smashing week.
Love, mandy.♥

Back from WA.
It was beautiful all the way.
Livy was a doll.
Elena never came.
Coffee was FREE.♥
The laundromat was uh-mazing.
Church was lovely.
Goodbyes were never ending.
And i am one happy girl.
I'll be visiting again. One day soon.

Love, mandy.♥

Two of the most loverly girls in the world.
We will take pictures, sit in the road, and eat peanut butter.
It's going to be SMASHING.

I'm off to WA. now.
(i should really go finish packing. GOSH.)

love...mandy

BE GONE.♥

2010-08-05T21:44:00.000-07:00

We got rid of the old washing machine today.
I kind of liiiked that thing.
GONE.
I went to the dump to drop it off.
And lo and behold, i fell inLOVE with yet another one.
NO.
I couldn't have it.
DARN.

Love, mandy.

wednesday.

2010-08-04T09:58:00.000-07:00

Bohemian dress.
FROSTED MINI SPOONERS.
Sun.
Barefeet.
And Arizona Tea.

My day thus far.
LOVE.

fourteen days

2010-08-03T11:36:00.000-07:00

yes, i was that girl.

2010-08-01T21:49:00.000-07:00

I was the girl sitting on the sacramento bus stop floor with messy hair and snapple tea.
cute? maybe.

a bittersweet goodbye

2010-07-31T11:34:00.000-07:00

We go home today.
6:15. On the bus. All the way back to Oregon. I'm not sure what a twenty hour bus ride is going to be like. I'm feeling bittersweet right now. I love it here so much, but i'm dying to see my family and sleep in my OWN bed. It's been a good two weeks. Two weeks that i will always remember.

And even though havasupai didn't come, i can still say i have some rad everlasting memories. Definitely.

Yesterday was a good last day. 2 words: WATER PARK. (note: watching the boys take coke cans out of the trashcans just so they could get a discount on their tickets was rather adorable.) Really, you had to be there. Baha.

I'm leaving california with a smile.(and a lot of new friends.)

Have a jolly day.

Love,
mandy.

"name one time i didn't like being here..."

2010-07-29T09:09:00.001-07:00

I don't think i want to go home.
THE END.

It's been so much more than i hoped two weeks in california would be like. REALLY.
The trip got twisted up, but everyone went with it. And must i say it was beautiful. Every single bit. Pictures coming soon. I promise.
Endless hours of driving this week. But i didn't mind it at all. Because when you're with uh-mazing people, it's like you don't even notice.(but one thing you do notice is the country music. Sorry. I don't think i'll ever LOVE you.) I've officially been to nine states now. O yeah baby(o; Seeing the grand canyon was like nothing words can describe. Go see it for yourself. It will be worth it. And cliff jumping is my new best friend. I liiike that. It was a rather perfect trip.
Dear Roses,
THANK YOU.(x100)
Leaving saturday is looking so very turdy right now. Seriously. 20 hours on a bus. Trying not to think about it that much. I'm coming back. One day.
Today is the beach maybe. I don't know, but i'm looking forward to it.

Have a jolly day lovelies.(cause i know i will.)

Yours,
mandy.

it's probably true...

2010-07-24T14:31:00.000-07:00

I'm most likely having an uh-MAZING time right now.

Love, Mandy.<3

it's just cause we're from OREGON.

2010-07-23T16:22:00.000-07:00

Soda is soda.
(call it pop and you die.)

California= HEART.
I've decided to stay here.
Be a hobo.
Sounds kind of delightful if you ask me.

Right now i have "believe" written on my hand. Problems with havasupia. Sometimes i could cry i want to go so bad. That darn rain. JUST KILL ME NOW. So close yet so far.

The past couple of days have been smashing like heck.
Dear drum circle, i would visit you everyday if i could.
Dear beach, i could eat you up.
Dear first time pumping gas, haha. i went 1cent over. sorry marcus.
Dear new friends, you are all UH-MAZING.
Dear shakespear play, beautiful.
Dear jack in the box, i guess i can say i loved you.
Dear Ho Ho Ramen, you will always just be Ho Ho Ramen.
Dear "lord of the rings", i'm so not that into you.
Dear roses,
i liiiiike you all. (heart)

Today is hot.
And bittersweet.
(manly movie night tonight maybe. baha.)

Hope life is so much better than better.

Love from,
the girl with a pink shirt.

I can already tell today is going to be uh-mazing.

I get to wake up early everyday this week. But the funny thing is, i don't mind it at all. It's rather lovely.
I'm sitting here, at my kitchen table, drinking tea, and blogging my heart out.
Yes. What else do i need?(smile)

Yesterday:
Little Tyke's Sports Camp.(+today+tomorrow+and the next day...)
I danced.(i hereby make it a rule in life: YOU MUST DANCE AT LEAST ONCE A WEEK.)
And i excercised way to much. Five hours to be precise. (martial arts, hike, treadmill, dance, eliptical, and walk.) I was pretty dead at the end of the night. O boy. My life is a gym.

SKYPE TOMORROW NIGHT.

Camp in (3) days.

I need to go buy cocoa powder.

My today.(see below.)

We went on a picnic. Yes, a picnic. And i loved it. Packed a little red crate with yummo and hopped in the car down to the park to meet ria. It was rather smashing.
Afterward, bell and i walked around town. We didn't even know where we were going. Pointlessly roaming i guess.*smile*
(Note: my skirt blew up walking across the street.)
(Note: boy in car blushed.) Oops.
Bell and i laughed all the way to the antique shop. Haha.

Hope you had a very terrific day.

RECAP.
(my week)

Puppet shows. Done. And boy am i glad. My arm feel like it's been through a tsunami. Seriously. Two whole hours of holding my arm straight up.
Note: the last performance was the best. it always is.

And...

Bell blew out her candles this week. Finally. She is now officially nineteen. Good for her. I stuck them in a klondike. (After searching through the whole entire house for something to put them in.) We are practically cakeless.

I Gardened today. And i didn't enjoy it. Not in the least. Though every minute of it i was telling myself "i like this." Lying to myself didn't work. Darn.

Skype. is. love.
(most definitely.)

Tomorrow will be good.
Just cause i don't know what i'm going to do. I like days like that.

Happy week loves.

-me.
xoxo

Six puppet shows.
Two whole hours of holding my arm straight up with a fish named reidlee on it. Somehow i'm having a hard time enjoying this. It already hurts and we've only done one showing. O dear.
(maybe i should do more push-ups?*wink*)

-tandy
xoxoxo

what if girls were chickens?

2010-06-28T09:09:00.000-07:00

Sometimes,
when i'm in a room full of girls,
i get overwhelmed.
WAY overwhelmed.
It's almost like being in a room full of chickens that wont stop clucking.
Ugh.

Anywho...

Summer is finally here.
Hello little dress and sandals.
I love you already.

Today is going to be beautiful.
Pappy daughters date. With Bell and i. (heart)
Lots of sunshine.
Pink lips.
Maybe a run.
And
Pancakes.
Hope you have a terrific day dears.
Love,
tandymandy

i don't mind at all.

2010-06-26T13:22:00.000-07:00

I says to myself, i feel marvelous.

Yesterday was a good day.
And today will be even better.

I'm wearing an 80's ponytail right now.
Just for the heck of it.

The rodeo is here.
Yes, in my town.
And you know what's funny?
I've lived here for practically all my life and i haven't taken one trip to it.
I don't even know what they do at the rodeo.
But i'm fine with that.

We went to the movies instead.
It was lovely.
Four seesters at the movies.
Barely anyone was there.
Who can complain?
Ria yelled at the cool parts. It was funny.

I'm not sure what i want to do today.
And it's already 1:43.
O goodness.
Maybe i should go find out.

Have a darling day lovelies.
Yours,
Tandymandy

2010-06-25T11:15:00.000-07:00

Dearest Friday,

Today is going to be wonderful.
I dare say, i'm already in love with you.
A postcard came for me. I smiled.
That's the start of a very lovely day. I know it.
I think i'll wear a summer dress.
And pink lipstick.
And twirl around in the street for a bit.
Sounds good.

Love,
me.
xoxox

<---this way is happy.

2010-06-24T17:01:00.000-07:00

Dear tandy,

suck it.
Love, your sunburn.

(Never forget to put the sunscreen on. Not even on your back. O dear. That's what i get.)
Gardening a lot lately. And as much as i love it, i hate it. I thought i loved weeding. My views have changed.(for now)
Dear weeds,
die.
Love, tandy
Hair cut. Yes, i layered my hair. Maybe it will curl up the way i want it to now. Or maybe not.

Today is hard.
I'm trying to be happy. But i find it really difficult.
Sunburned, tired, seesterless.
Yeah...what else can you do?

Maybe i'll go drink some tea.
And put some pink lipstick on.
And be happy.
That sounds marvelous if you ask.
Love, me.

Take me to Aruanda
