lil' darlin'

I remembered tonight a funny little list I had made in my head ages ago about the silly things I wanted in a boy when I got "older."
Among them was a mandolin player and someone who called me "Darlin'." Obviously, these are quite possibly not going to be true of someone I "end up with." (I have no idea why that is in quotations...) But it was that list that ever little girl makes up. Mine just happened to be a little bit more eccentric that my other friends around the neighborhood.
Ah well...

I just got back from a pretty great night. I got off work, went for a run, and then met up with Steph for a bottle of wine before Andy and Tyler met us for the William Fitzsimmons and Slow Runner show.
It.was.awesome.
Musically, they were all so incredibly talented. Lyrically, Bearded Man was a little depressing, but it was entirely balanced out by the fact that he was hilarious in between and even during songs. Plus, getting to hang out with Steph was so great and I had a blast with Andy and Tyler, too. It was one of the best nights I've had in a while.


Things have seemed to balance out a little bit in life again. Although, whenever I say that, I know it's not completely true and that it's really just me repressing something that I feel like is balanced out. Or maybe it is balanced out and I just jumble it up when I want a little excitement. Or maybe I just push things out of the forefront of my head. Either way, stuff has simmered down now, but I know there's still something boiling beneath the surface. But this is on several accounts.


Nonetheless, I am enjoying this time of blissful ignorance.
