go to sleepy little baby

do any of you ever wake up from a good sleep with a ton on your mind?? it's like everything is magnified by 50 billion in those moments. 

every worry, every stress, every emotion. gag.

and being up when no one else is awake to talk to you? ugh...straight up misery. 

dear nyquil: please kick in.

thanks,

jordan

better...gravy.

date night with myself.

i watched away we go.

i cried. a lot.

ridiculous, intense, continual tears.

not bc it was sad, but bc it was sweet.

i guess i felt a connection to the film, and saw something i want.

• All My Days by Alexi Murdoch

More Alexi Murdoch music on iLike

now i see clearly

it's you i'm looking for

all of my days

so i smile

i know i'll feel

this loneliness no more

all of my days

for i look around me

and it seems you've found me

and it's coming into sight

as the days keep turning into night

as the days keep turning into night

even breathing feels alright

{alexi murdoch. featured artist in the away we go soundtrack. current obsession.}

new week. cross your fingers.

this could be the start of something new

so it all started yesterday, when my bff asked me this one simple question:

"well...when was the last time you had sushi?"

i thought about it, and had trouble remembering.

this did not please me.

a few texts later, i had plans with a couple of my friends to meet up in the city for sushi. turns out our spot was closing just as we arrived, but they let us place a to go order, which we wound up eating in subway. random.

then we decided...we should probably karaoke. {duh!}

so we made our way over to the mint, and began deciding what we would be performing...

so many options.

but deep down, we all knew what we wanted had to sing.

sarah and jon: i want it that way {backstreet boys}

sarah: any man of mine {shania twain}

jon: follow me {uncle cracker}

jordan: you make my dreams {hall & oates}

...hee hee hee...

ps. before you judge, i just want you to turn on hall & oates and just TRY NOT DANCING!

also...yes i did in fact go to a karaoke bar in jorts and a tshirt. wow. but hey that's what happens when you live impulsively!

this was the first time i've ever karaoked...and i must say...it was kind of exhilarating...

happy thursday.

much love.

floating on the breeze

floating on the breeze of a silent summer night, originally uploaded by °°k°°.

i'm listening to nickel creek this morning. this side is such a good album.

it brings back so many feelings. reminds me of all the warm summer nights in oklahoma. driving with the windows down. everything was familiar. just me, some really great music, and the open road. delight.

"it's foreign on this side, but it feels like i'm home again. there's no place to hide, but i don't think i'm scared."

paint me in your sunshine

weekend/beginning in review:

i do really well when i choose to be alone. i'm a total girl when i don't.

duffy just might be the greatest hot-tub companion in the world.

if i go into h&m and then proceed to try on, i will definitely not be leaving empty handed. done deal.

i like brussel sprouts.

paul's amberales + sunlight + chocolate covered sunflower seeds + good conversations about tupac and missy elliott 

= perfection.

dinner parties with a bunch of strangers can be so much fun.

{well...strangers + 1 really great family + 1 completely FAB friend}

so ready to make at&t park my 2nd home again this summer.

watching {eh hem} someone attempt to wear a coffee mug as a ring is enough to make me cry...from laughter.

watching that same someone carry my heart to such new and amazing places might also be enough to make me cry...for different reasons.

"why be alone when we can be together baby? you can make my life worthwhile, i can make you start to smile"

{mr. big}

you are my sunshine

via coffeestains

"jordan, i feel alone."

...you and me both, girl.

"i'll hold his hand in secret."

via i am the crime

kind of having one of those mornings.

so i'm cuddling up on the sofa with my favorite little frog.

enjoying a big cup of coffee, the falling rain, and the lion king.

i love the way kids can make everything

moonlight and canoes

"he's holding back he's hiding, but what? i can't decide. why won't he be the king i know he is, the king i see inside."
