Thoughts on a Thursday Evening

Today I've been thinking about a lot of things. I think one of the things I'm famous for is saying 
"What are you thinking?",  if you've known me for more than a few days I've asked you this question. Maybe even asked you twice. Or a million times. 
It's rare that someone asks me what I am thinking, unless I've asked them that question and they want to stall me. LOL. 
So, here, is just a snippet of the thoughts that have been running through my mind today...

I NEED a complete set of bright dictionaries, I mean really, who doesn't? 
Because then, I would finish what I started in the second grade, which was to read the dictionary from cover to cover. I think I got to the G's and gave up. 


I want letters in the mail. Love letters, handwritten, on scraps of paper or fully lined sheets, signed with a heart at the bottom.... you know, the usual :). 


I have this cd I just made that's full of songs that just make me happy. Have you ever had a song that just makes you feel? I love that. My taste in music is based on how the song makes me feel, and every time I turn on this cd it makes me smile. Big. 


I want a dress like this, floor length, gorgeous. Even if I don't have anywhere to go. I'd be happy writing out the next paragraph of my book, on the couch, while wearing this beauty. Because all those sequins are sure to be incredibly comfortable right? I don't care though. It's gorgeous.


I want to know what it feels like to have someone so desperate for that last kiss from me, that it makes them act like this. I want that, the hanging out of the back of a moving train to get one last touch from my lips, because it means more to them than anything else. I want that and a million other moments like this that makes a girl feel special. Because it would be lovely. 


I recently acquired a book of poetry that looks like this. With crackling pages yellowed with age, the spine creaks, and with each turn of the page the papers slither against each other in the most delicious way. I love books, old ones, new, and I've been so excited about this one.
