ARIZONA
So... maybe I am looking forward to going home. Birthday plans? A sunrise hike. Which might just turn into a sunrise watch depending on the heat. Don't want to die on my first day as not a teenager. That would suck.

Butterflies
It's so crazy how many butterflies have been fluttering around in my stomach this past weekend. Even Darwin would be impressed.
The Diva butterfly flew around for a bit before I performed (again) songs I barely knew the words too. My favorite piece of the evening was My Favorite Things (hence the Coltran post below). I felt like a Maria on jazz crack.
And THEN parasite butterflies. Yes yes, I got parasites. It was glorious. Grand. My new best friends those pesky parasites. Have I mentioned that I love sarcasm?
And then the love butterflies of being in love with a 4 year old named Kendy. We baked some brownies for Feast last night and he paused his bowl-licking to tell me that he wants a chocolate cake for his 5th birthday. His birthday is in November. I pretended to go to the bathroom so I could cry.
So all these butterflies, heart aches, kicking and screaming, "i don't wanna go don't make me go", sick of teaching attitudes suck... but then I remember when 7 year old Miguel pulled a box cutter out in art class and started swinging it around and how in my broken spanish I somehow managed to pull it out of his hands without getting myself or other children stabbed and suddenly, going home doesn't seem so scary.
There's absolutely no link between this song and this post. I just like the song.

I'm also a big fan of the second picture posted. I want a poster size of it hanging on my wall some day.

The Shamim Post
Today, 21 years ago, my best friend was born.
Feliz cumple Shamz, de un siervo a un otro.

Just because I've been slacking on posting doesn't mean I still haven't been drooling over beautifully composed outfits and glamorous compositions.

I'm not much of a makeup girl but these are divine. And way photoshopped...
