February Feels

Monday, February 29, 2016

A quick round-up of the the songs that gave me all the feels this fine February.  I listened to a lot of old John Mayer and Taking Back Sunday, thanks to Apple Music's reminder that I listened to them both repeatedly in high school.  Stevie Wonder tops the list simply because I got ready in the morning every single day with this song on repeat.  Sublime comes in second because it's my walk-into-work song and my walk-out-of-work song.  February was a strange month.

Sir Duke - Stevie Wonder
Quotable Lyrics:
Music is a world within itself
With a language we all understand
With an equal opportunity
For all to sing, dance, and clap their hands

Dear Mom,

I am a shithead who doesn't appreciate you a tenth of what you deserve.

Parents Are People Too: What I Learned As A Fur Baby Parent

Thursday, February 18, 2016

In November, my dad drove out to Long Island to visit my grandpa for a week and as a surprise he brought Charlie along for the ride.  Grandpa was ecstatic and it was probably the worst idea ever because he now expects us to bring Charlie along every time we visit.

The following weekend, I flew into visit some friends and trek back along the Pennsylvania Turnpike with my dad and Charlie.  Charlie is an excellent passenger.  We've traveled back and forth between Cranberry and Bay Shore so many times she's a pro by now.  Her only issue is that she wants to sit on the dashboard and watch the cars go by, it generally makes her pretty happy.  The problem with this, of course, is you can't see past her when you drive this way and that is extremely dangerous.  So Charlie only gets to run around at rest stops and will cry and whine when you put her back into her carrier because it's not fair that she doesn't get to watch all of the cars and trees go by!

Making Space & Letting Go

I am a memory hoarder.  I keep scraps from events and significant moments and store them away in large clear under-the-bed storage bins.  Typically, upon moving back or moving out I go through these memories and relive the feelings or remind myself of things far off in the past.
