In the interest of full disclosure.

Today:

I am not wearing socks (I forgot)
I am wearing my hair up, and my bangs pinned back (It was that kind of day)
I am wearing a shirt C gave me, with a scarf B and B gave me, which makes me happy
I had oatmeal for breakfast (cinnamon roll kind)
I listened to Third Eye Blind and Graham Colton on the way to work
I laughed hysterically because I made E spill all over himself on the ride to P
(how many people will you tell? he said. I won’t, I said. except for everyone who reads my blog, I thought…)
I am going to drink lots of water and lots of tea
I will be planning an event, and debriefing from one yesterday
I will answer the phone approximately 20 times
(and only 1 or 2 of the calls will actually be for me)

Today I also:

will play Scrabble. will see M. will smile.
will watch Glee. and maybe Raising Hope.
will work on my spreadsheet for Thanksgiving, and maybe N and J’s wedding
will read at least one news article about a celebrity, and one about the midterm elections.
will probably check facebook for sanity’s sake.
will probably hear a five year old say, “last one’s a rotten egg”
will go to yoga. will love it. will think about how I need a new mat, probably when T says, “Think of nothing.”

dizzy madness/all I need is your face

Thus begins Jennie’s Spring Fling with every singer/songwriter in the US that is between 20-50 who may or may not be definitely IS the perfect match for her.

I can’t help it– spring comes around and I need a new outlook on life. I need Jon McLaughlin to tell me to that all he needs is my face. I need Better Than Ezra to sing that we’re absolutely still, and that a million years wouldn’t be long enough. I need Graham Colton to tell me that these are the best days, I need Mat Kearney to meet me once again, down off Lake Michigan, I need Stephan Jenkins to ask me why can’t I be a little more mystery.

I’m on my way to owning 5 new albums that I am sure will keep my soul at bay this summer, and I look forward to finding more loves on the way:
