let’s go fly a kite

there are a whole mess of disconnected thoughts currently floating about my head right now so this post might be a bit all over the place.

i feel as if lately i have just been taking snapshots. grasping desperately to hold on to the moments. as i sit surrounded by my favorite people, i glance around and see happiness. inside jokes. busting chops. uncontrollable laughter. i want the moments to last just a little bit longer.

And to top it all off there was an epic strobe light dance party in a friend’s living room and also the joy of seeing my favorite human live in concert tonight.

finally, there are two songs i cannot seem to get enough of these days on account of their overwhelming beauty.
