My dear friends Brian and Randa, released their amazing album on monday and I just thought I'd share it with all of you. You can do listen to it and download it free here. They are unbelievably talented and I cant help but dance to all of their songs. Above are a few photos I took at their show from monday night. You can also follow them more closely from here www.shadowsonstars.com. Enjoy.

If I knew.

If I knew where I was going next, 
I wouldn’t be taking so many naps,
or reading all these books, 
trying to define my future in pillow cases 
and stitched book bindings,
lost in the small decisions
of each day, 
only a little bit numb. 

I am the inevitable wanderer; 
the girl who always said goodbye, 
but never quite figured out how to leave.

impossible.

smoke.

The smoke swam slowly, twisting and turning upward. Not exactly toward anything. But rather away. Away from the fiery cherried end of a cigarette lodged between two dirty and motionless fingers, having yet been smoked. Avoiding the inevitable inhalation and thus, annihilation from the disastrous heap of a human that these fingers belong to. Up, further away from the girl that, more melted than laid, side up on the cold floor. Her heavy head cemented to her outstretched arm. Her breathe stagnant. Her eyes fixed, unblinking, just a few feet away, on the unopened envelope decorated with only her name.

I have been writing a lot lately. Its such a big part of me. Lately I have been wanting more of a challenge so I asked a friend of mine if he wanted to be my "writing buddy." He too had been wanting to do a little more with his writing. So we decided to choose some writing "assignments" and then share them with each other. The first time around we did 100 word assignments. We choose a prompt and can use only 100 words. No more, no less. This was one of mine and here is the other. 

less empty.
