wear everything at the same time. don't limit
yourself to your closet.

we like to repeat ourselves. i am okay with this as long as we wear sassy blazers while doing it. pat got it covered. lou diamond + mariah girl, take note.

"we belong together," by los lobos, as performed by lou diamond phillips in la bamba (1987)

"we belong together," mariah carey (2005)

"we belong," pat benatar (1984)

i've started recording myself whispering greeting-card size melodies. this is kind of a big step, considering that recording technology really terrifies me. today i sat down with a cup of tea + mumbled a mini clip of the los lobos song featured above. i've been advised by a couple of lovelies to "sing out!" but i'm so in love with technological fuzziness, sonic versions of dust + cobwebs, that i don't know if i could ever swiffer those sounds out.

13/4: pretty is boring. that place on my chest where my heart
used to be, sings a sad note when i see "pretty," because
i've moved on. it's not enough to be pretty, you have to
be interesting, and interesting means a lot of different
things to a lot of different people.

(768) 345 - 2465: i'm attracted to masculinity in a sense that
i am attracted to strength and stylistic vigor, as opposed
to flippant, soft, or fashionable vulnerability. strive
for might and commitment to an idea and you can't go
wrong.

-34,211, 123: i'd rather give too much than not enough,
which is probably why i'm always sweating, but at least
i'm not shivering.
