Living

I think that the most exhilirating feeling in the world is that feeling that is akin to flying, when you're glued to your seat, anchored to the earth, and whatever it is you're experiencing lifts you up beyond the limits of imagination and physicality. It feels like your heart is about to explode, but that would just propel you further, so you wish it would. You're caught in a headlock, and all you can do is sit as tears run down your face and you have no clue how to express what you're feeling. I still haven't decided if it's better to have someone next to you or not; I suppose that would completely alter the experience, but then you would have something to clutch at as you bite your lip and try not scream with the momentum.
And then it's over, and all you can do is push yourself forth through the exhaustion and use the resulting feeling to feel as though the world is a kind place, more beautiful than anything the imagination could ever in a thousand years provide.

Captain on the Premises

Looks like I'll have to watch "Blackbeard's Ghost" a couple of times!!

Start Spreading the News ....

Tryouts this week - dance, choir, drama, etc. ... Tried a dance class that may or may not work. Exhaustion might move to the top of the list of Things I'm Thinking About Today because I was too caught up in E.L. Konigsburg to worry about some guy who pretends he's mad and berates his mother while slashing at rats with a full-blown sword.
My clothing is disappearing and being recovered piece by piece ... (-I FEEL VIOLATED! TAKE THAT DOWN OR I'LL SUE YOU!-)
Got some new junky books from Barnes and Noble that will make me infinitely happy with the ease I speed through them, they just better be worth my time. Eddie Izzard rules. Peace out.
