things to do...


why didn't I make this list earlier??

curse you fall and your crisp, chilly nights that are slowly taking over

i can't walk around barefoot all the time anymore...
and i had to pull out a jacket on Sunday night...

stay warm for me for just a little bit longer September?

please, oh please, oh please

withdraws

I can't help it.
I got addicted.
Not to any illegal substances,
Not to some online video game that will completely consume my life until I loose all pigment in my skin from sitting inside on the computer all day,
Not to adrenaline inducing extreme sports.
No.
It's worse.
And I'm afraid the only cure is a plane ticket...

I'm having withdraws  from 
London, England.


In an attempt to compensate for my British fever I heard that Provo has its own little farmer's market on Saturday mornings down off Center.
Done.
I am so there.

I miss the open markets.
 I miss the crowds of people shopping.
I miss the endless booths of merchandise and antiques.

This was what I really wanted to see yesterday morning:



This is what I got:


I was a little disappointed.

favorite.

Love (3)

Love bade me welcome, yet my soul drew back,
        Guilty of dust and sin.
But quick-ey'd Love, observing me grow slack
        From my first entrance in,
Drew nearer to me, sweetly questioning
        If I lack'd anything.

"A guest," I answer'd, "worthy to be here";
        Love said, "You shall be he."
"I, the unkind, the ungrateful? ah my dear,
        I cannot look on thee."
Love took my hand and smiling did reply,
        "Who made the eyes but I?"

"Truth, Lord, but I have marr'd them; let my shame
        Go where it doth deserve."
"And know you not," says Love, "who bore the blame?"
        "My dear, then I will serve."
"You must sit down," says Love, "and taste my meat."
        So I did sit and eat.

rise & shout

because there is at least one good thing about the fall...

and no I don't mean bouquets of sharpened pencils
or the leaves changing
or school shopping 
or that wonderful autumn chill in the air
(okay, there's a lot of things I like about fall)

but this particular thing starts on Saturday

I'll give you a hint:


Yes, I'm ridiculously excited about football season.


Goooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Cougars!
