i recently found:

1. i love to cook even when the onions make me cry
2. sometimes i have to stop what i'm doing just to write
3, i would rather be held than kissed
4. i'm only a perfectionist when i'm cooking
5. i would be happy in a cardboard box if i could have new flowers every morning
6. i would like to live in san francisco
7. my favorite sound in the world is a guitar being tuned
8. when babies fall asleep in your arms, you start to remember that life is simply good
9. i'd like to be the kind of quirky girl who says she'd rather a bouquet of balloons than flowers. but as mentioned before, flowers float my boat. and i'm scared of balloons...
10. i love the earth and all its friends, but when it comes to hot showers i am an environmental thief
11. and this written on the back of a 'to do' list:

had some time to think about you
bundled from up there in ribbons and bows
putting pink polish on your nails you feel like a girl
are you going to the ocean with those flowers in your hair
wearing sylvia plath on your back and your toes in the grass

throwing punches from where you stood on a chair
oh mice and little boys and the way they stare
you sing of flowers and lace and curls
but you are not a young lady and you don't look like you're adored
despite your rouge and red wine lips and french bottle of kiss

you don't have me fooled in your ballerina shoes
princesses don't have to pretend so hard
you shouldn't keep secrets that you don't know
we'll meet again down the road, you less traveled than you hoped
and i would like to have forgotten you and your ink pens and notepaper


i don't remember doing that. ten points if i can remember what it's about...
