Beautiful Things
I just wanted to pass along this site Brittany introduced me to.
I mean, photography, poetry, and music always make my day.

pillow talk
At home (the house I grew up in), I would lay in bed at night with the window open and listen to trains whistle as they crawled from east to west. There would be nothing but the creaking of a silent house and that faint interval humming... Which is the most calming noise I can think of, especially when that train is two miles away and muffled by trees and houses and night air.
And now, at home (the house I currently live in), I cannot sleep. Instead I lay here with the window open and memorize new sounds, tracing each one in the dark.
There's an airplane.
A faint siren.
Crashing at the locks as something is unloaded.
Traffic.
And of course a boat horn to top it off.
They are foreign sounds, not the interval humming of my childhood and teenage years. But they are still peaceful. This is still home.
It's not what's outside my window that makes it home, but what is inside. It's the house that lays in silence. Or should I say, the people who lay in their own beds and listen to the same sounds I do.
Brittany, Candace, Natalie, Brittany, Emily, Lauren, Amber, Teresa, Todd, and Quinten. Your love is home.

Perpetually
living in a house with 7 to 8 girls was the best decision of my life. Period.
The humanity. The drama. The relationships. The laughter. The diversity. The awkward moments. House Dinner.
I feel bad if you've never had a similar experience.

freshhhhh
THINGS I DID WHILE HOME:
-Went running...a total of 22.75 miles of flat, open road. Mmmmmm :)
-Bought new canvas at Craft Warehouse's 50% off sale (WHAT A STEAL!) and created this little beauty... Obviously Jackson Pollock is an inspiration these days:
I just watched the season finale of 'Work of Art' and it makes me realize how much I want art to be part of my life. Picasso comes to the SAM this October...Brit and I are PUMPED!!
-Walked the usual routes with Mom and Roxy
-Went to Cannon Beach at midnight. Basically for the best bonfire of my life, a red moon set, and sand that glows at low tide.
-Ate a ton. I mean, when the entire fridge is on-limits, why the heck not?! Also, when I come home, so does the good cooking. Dad's salmon on a cedar plank- yummm.
-Saw the worst movie ever. But the company of Hayley Weaver always makes up for bad action movies like 'The Expendables' haha. I also said goodbye to her until we see each other again at Thanksgiving...and I've realized it never really gets easier with each year. Watching her pack up the car is still hard.
-Went to lunch with Jordan and heard alllll about his exciting journalism career. Jamba Juice and Chipotle was a nice mix-up from our usual spot at Red Robin this time. I am so proud of that boy and his ability to make the best of all his opportunities.
-Visited my family at Borders :) I still love that place WAY more than a normal person should.
-Had a coffee date with Sharon at Brewed, which is one of the best parts about home. It's nice to condense all of my favorite things into such a small period of time, but it makes it hard to leave.
-Went on a redemption tour of Portland with Tony...Habibi, Tea Chai Te, waiting for the I5 Bridge to go up, and the greatest soundtrack a girl could ask for are some highlights
-Attended Amy Antisdel Cameron's wedding. Wow. Kind of surreal since I've known her since I was six. Some things have changed drastically and others have stayed exactly the same.
-Hung out with Ariel! We went to a barbecue and played botchee-ball with friends and her boyfriend Andrew. I might have botched that spelling... ;)
-Discovered this gem, which makes me feel mightily adventurous:
-ANNNND I should mention the baby brother turned 18. Fuhrick we're old.
Back to the real world...
Au Revoir!
