12 Things I want Right Now

1. The ability to conjure up more than a list. It seems spring has pulled my ability to write further from me with each additional minute of daylight. 2. To be pulled in close for a kiss. A perfect kiss. A nice, lovely, perfect kiss. 3. To remind you guys of this guy from the beach in Mykonos. Not the // Read more Read more…

 

I am the boss

My brother and I were very close growing up. Having older twin sisters, ooOOOoOOoOOoooOOO the blonde hair, blue eyed “Tiger Twins” (literally, how they were known in our neighborhood), that invented their own stupid clever language, shared a bedroom and did everything together meant that when my baby brother was born, I finally had someone to hang out with.
