last night was halloween. it was quite fun. well, sort of. yea, it was fun. perry took a bunch of pictures, which appear here. eventually more stuff may end up there, but what the hell, look through them and enjoy. we existed as follows:
nick-80's skater/punk
nancy-black panther
amelia-laid back angel
me-poor excuse for marty mcfly
perry-speed racer
chris-kid who broke xedgex
lara-damsel of sorts
joe-joe daley
thomas-gay guy
keerin-boy scout
there were some more fun costumes, but that is the majority that i could remember. who cares, nobody reads this anyway, right? hmm...sometimes drinking with your friends can be really fun, and sometimes it can suck. i'd say last night was much more towards the former than the latter. my friends can be really great sometimes, and really suprise me in a nice way. i love that a "stranger" can come into our group and be accepted so quickly, for all intents and purposes, assimalated, made part of the clan. its fun, its nice, its comforting. halloween can be fun, sometimes its just an excuse to be stupid, and we get to relive our childhood in a way, which we all know is something that comforts me greatly. "i could be so much more than this." wow. i love jimmy eat world. if i could grab life and give it a hug, i would. i may be a hippie, but at least i'm happy. often confused, but happy. sometimes i wish things would slow down a bit, but i suppose that i should take what i can get, enjoy life one day at a time (as if there is any other way), and accept my fate as it is. however, this is so much easier said than done. wish me luck. wish me peace. i'll do my best. i promise. i think.

bits
and pieces
of your face
are stuck
in my mind
like glass.
and yet i'm unsure
of every step i take
every insignificant word i utter
every lock of hair i stroke
every piece of dust i rub from my eyes.
still, we react to our hearts
still i treat each day as new
project my feelings on the side of a building
project my thoughts on you.
take your time to walk here,
the streets are ever so dangerous.
be careful, watch your step,
do not tread on ground that you
are not comfortable with.
give all of your possessions
to your younger brother;
you won't be needing them
(where you're going).
record each and every step.
date. time. weather.
shift the light
or
shift the camera
capture everything around you
in silence.
capture my breath,
still in the air
like glass.
