Dear everyone, parents particularly. Your kid didn’t decide to like boys or girls or both. Your kid didn’t pick the brain in their head, the heart or the soul in their body. You have to realize every person is who they are because they were born with those parts. You as a parent are only…

New Original. “I Can See You Now” I wrote it today at 2 am.

Lyrics:

I can see you know, singing your heart out in your car
When nobody’s looking, I’ve always known you were so loud

I can see you now, staring into your closet
Face all flustered cause you never just know what to wear
And I can picture that look on your face when your tired
And rustling your neck in the pillow, falling to a dull sleep

And I bet you’ve got plans all day and all night
And your making no time to show you aren’t fine
And I bet your doing your best to forget I exist

But I just blame myself, dreaming of your soft smell
And the way your hair fell on your cheek
Desperately thinking what should or shouldn’t be

And I’m making this harder, the guilt has me pinned
I act like I’m all sorted but I don’t know where to begin
And I’m stuck in these sheets that linger if you
I’m stuck in my head thinking what’s the right thing to do
I’m making this harder

And you even told me, to do whatever you need
You even warned be how you’d be

But I can see you now, at the foot of your bed thinking about me
Where wed lay and talk for hours, sleep far past noon

I can see you now, hiding your teeth every time you smile
So afraid of all the things that make you beautiful

And when did I make such a mess of myself
Each breeze whispers over and over
When did you become such a mess of yourself

Dude, my friend Chelsea is friggin amazing! Her voice gives me the chills. CLICK, listen, be forever changed. <3

SO incredibly cute!

I’ve sold out of prints now. I think I’m going to do a print of one of the other ones at some point, rather than reprint the same one again.

..:: Tegan And Sara - I Was A Fool ::.

Twin sisters Tegan And Sara have been singer-songwriting indie pop gems for years now, and although they’ve been hinting at a genre shift with their previous two albums, their latest album is where they’ve finally gone and traded in their guitars for synthesizers. Yes, Heartthrob is a full on synth-pop album, but that doesn’t mean the girls have lost any of their ability to weasel their way into my heart. Lead single “Closer” is a hell of a karaoke jam, but “I Was A Fool” is my favorite moment of the album. Tegan tells us that familiar story of being completely unable to do what your brain is telling you when your heart is in charge while Sara occasionally drops by to lend a backup voice. Those 3rd and 4th “I was a fooooool’s” in the chorus totally peak out like none other. Don’t worry about the haters ladies, you can genre-hop all you want. Your true fans aren’t going anywhere.

Josiah, it’s like you read my mind :)

My beautiful partner got a new job at The Red Box Outlet at 1509 Cypress St in Walnut Creek. If you like designer products at a discount, stop by 11 am to 6 pm Tuesday through Saturday! They have some seriously cute stuff! Sarah knows how to put things together and make it look good, even the things that I didn’t think were cute at first glance!  #sheworkshardforthemoney #ilovemygirlfriend #designer

Day 14: love is… Playing Barbies with your other grown-up friends and Ken & Kevin end up getting married. Such a beautiful ceremony, so glad my daughter’s Barbies passed a law allowing gay marriage!
