Coffee's oblique reference to Yul Gibbons. :D :D :D

A woman I greatly admire gave me a hug today. I really needed a hug from someone like that. I can never repay that generosity, but how I will try.

^^^ hahaha!! brings back happy memories of me driving my mom nutso playing with one of those on the kitchen floor while she was trying to get dinner done!!!

carrot w/ peanut butter + harvest moon = :)

It doesn't take much.

:D I'm proud as punch of this little thing I made today

the Venezuelan Youth Orchestra

apparently, Placido Domingo cried after seeing them. :D

this is wonderful

Best. Exclamation. Ever.

Tonight a stranger asked me if I was doing well. I guess I was standing there staring at him, nodding my head, because he asked it two or three times. He was looking at me with the sort of eyes that are either seeing through to the back of your head but more likely straight to your soul, looking for a nuance that will give the meaning of my nod away. I felt like I could tell this guy, whom I'd only talked to once before, absolutely anything and he'd have some good insight for me but even if not, would give a shit. It was nice to come across a person like that.

^^^ for Tune: She will appreciate the comment!! ;) She's back! :)

l'azizza : go for it!! who knows.

^ Jacky made me laugh today. That's not what I meant! He was kind, that's all. Like Amma Mata Amritanandamayi is kind.

^^^ :D my day was complete then. aahh! :)

pesto, hummus, lemon-rind stilton, and arugula on crusty bread

so geographically disunified, and yet so right.

*makes nummy sounds*
