everyday is day one

this weekend was: catching up on National Geographics, Glee, and loving the New Normal because it’s got Riley from National Treasure and because it’s about feelings; exploring new neighborhoods in the hopes of finding a new apartment; the most delicious sandwich I’ve ever had, and new Pink, DMB, Matchbox Twenty, and a surprising album from Jon McLaughlin; swapping clothes with friends; birthday parties, goodbye parties, and intense games of shuffleboard; more apartments tucked in the hills, coffee and a celebrity, bagels, and the Los Angeles Opera, the Two Foscari, and fancy dresses in ninety degree heat; delicious sandwiches from Grub, and politics, and the Master and everything that Joaquin and Amy and Philip have to teach us; Mario and blogging, and staying up past my bedtime.


 

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:
