in james taylor mode

this music makes me feel like i should be swaying and holding a lighter. maybe next time i will be moving to and fro...with a big 'ol torch. (my first saturday off since the middle of december. are you celebrating with me? please take part in this grand invitation.) it is chilly outside. i was in the cities last night-- k-mart on lake st. has incredible shoes. they are dressy and they fit my square feet, so i want to go back soonish. now i know that fancy shoes fit me... i was feeling greatly discouraged for a long while. for instance, one of the weddings that i was in, us girls were asked to wear gold strappy heels. i had to get the somewhat correct length/size and than bring them and my toes to the "shoe doctor" to have him than cut the shoes, add in a peice of material, paint it gold, and slide it back on my foot. hmm. goodness. so. yeah, fancy shoes for wide feet do exist!... it is boyceville's prom tonight. emma looked stunning. having her and her best friend run around looking for nail polish and earrings, with their lovely dresses hanging in bags up high; made me smile and brought back memories. prom '99 i went out with a big group of friends. high school kids... we at at a chinese buffet. the boys were slightly obnoxious. us girls were too. we laughed as we continued to load up another clean plate. (right now one of those coconut puff's would be amazing.) than we piled into a couple vehicles-- none of this limo stuff-- we headed somewhat--after fast corners,passing games, and 'fire drills'-- in the direction of the high school gym-- a hotel would nice, but... the gym did wonders--. prom. the memories of the evening are a bit hazy. except that i must have danced a bit too hard to 'cotten eye joe' because there was a mishap with the great abundance that i stuffed into my being earlier in the evening. that was messy. cleaned up-- and the long night got much longer. it was fun. the full hot tub later was fun as well. oh memories. anyways. tonight. i am going in to view my little sister dance in the gym. im paying to be a spectator. weird. i will most definatly feel like i am spying thoughout some part of the twenty minutes that i plan on being present-- but i am kind of looking forward to it. moving on. i am coming to terms with being in this area a while. i have started to fill in my calander for a couple months in advance with various happening are planned to take place. and i decided that i am going to buy a fishing liscense. so. yup. ill be here. at least until my scheduled plans have past. and perhaps after i have fryed a fish that i hooked. ha.

    just to be with you by my side
    just to have you near in my sight
    just to walk awhile in this light
    just to know that life goes on
