Vague Sense of Shambles

 I didn't cry today (cheeky). Maybe it's because I get texts like: "Mami you be lookin all good n stuff. What is your secret? Lol" Maybe it's because Obi and Devin came over and we put temporary tattoos on. Obi's was a really trife looking dragon outlined in gold that looked BEAUTIFUL against his dark chocolate skin. And he's a flatterer. Maybe it's because I read a lot and finished Lover Unleashed and am again excited about books. Maybe it's because I'm excited about Ann Arbor. Maybe it's because I get to see Violet tomorrow.

   Sometimes I wish my life were a movie. Then this rut would just be the low point of ultimate dramatic tension that would lead to everything working out. But I'm too young for it to be perfect just now, and I wouldn't want it to be because the journey to get to that point will make life that much sweeter and everyone that much stronger. I've been listening to Savage Lovecasts a lot more recently and remembering more advice and outlooks on life, and while I don't agree with everything, it still makes me think and kind of consider what I believe for myself. And the things I do agree with are the things for which I want to have hope.
