Warmth

i woke up with an uncontrollable giggle

it was so contagious, my entire body laughed and smiled

i got up, took off my t-shirt, and got out some joy division and midnight oil and danced around my room naked for a good hour, it was absolutely marvellous.  the polish wowan banged her broom on the floor and i sung love will tear us apart, loud enough for the dead. 

i think things are on the upward swing.  i've finally met some people i click with and am starting to open up.  i actually walked to the gimenaspico without my ipod and smiled at the people who i passby eveyday on their cellphones.

i cooked enough lentil stew to feed my town, and stored it in water bottles, just like my aunt.  it too brings a smile to my face everytime i open the fridge.  i've also made midnight longboarding somewhat of a habit.  it's probably not the best idea to go alone but its too enjoyable to pass up.

the street names are starting to roll off my tongue and they've been added to the bank of once foreign words that make you uneasy at the first sight or sound. 

so i'm smiling and i hope you are too

love, light, and laughter
