woke up too early, but had a great day. Except for the depressing parts. I'll never go to Borders again. Their books are unorganized and their music is way over priced. Also, Borders is a "books movies and music" store. Barnes and Noble has an entire book section dedicated to music... Borders has nothing of the sort. At least in Norman. We left Barnes and Noble for Borders and went right back to Barnes and Noble.
Dedra and I drove around blaring my niece's Sesame Street CD in her new CD player. Singing at the top of my lungs with her, everything seems so clear. Only physically though. Don't you know that Dedra Marie is the love of my life? My best friend ever? The most beautiful girl I've ever met? What other 18 year old do you know who would listen to "Sunny Day! Sweepin' the clouds away! On my way to where the air is sweet!" all night with you? With me? With anyone? Who else would stuff their biggest purse with cheap dollar store candy and sneak it into the movie theater with you? Who else would call in a pizza, put it on her step dad's check, and take it to the park to eat with you while you swung? Who else would watch cartoons with you all day, and then go to the movie theater to watch Shrek 2? Who else dances with you in parking lots singing "Everyday when I make my way to the tubby... I find a, little fella who is cute and yella and chubby! Rubba Dub Dubby!" at the top of your lungs?
At Barnes and Noble I was bored. Which is strange. Until I found the fiction writing section... and the "word lovers" section. There were a million books I actually wanted to read (okay, actually it was a tiny section of the wall and I wanted to read about 4, but who is counting?) Just reading bits and pieces inspired me, which is something I haven't been in a while. Looks like it's time to update the Amazon wish list that no one knows about anyway.
There were more words, but I guess they're gone now.
