Please don't try to add me as a friend unless we've at least talked. I'm not going to add some random person I've never heard from before*

I'd prefer no one over 28 or so... also, it'd be cool if you actually had profile info and a picture. =) it increases the chance of feeling comfortable enough to talk to you. and it's only fair, in my opinion.

I've studied Spanish for three years, but would love to be able to speak it more fluently. So it'd be fun to try writing to someone in Spanish...
I would also like to learn French. I only know a very little bit from a few online lessons and what I've picked up from my friends who learned it in high school.

And when you write a poem
I know the words
I know the sounds
Before you write it down
When you wear your clothes
I wear them too
I wear your shoes
And your jacket too
I always knew you
In your mothers arms
I have called you son
I've made amends
Between father and son
Or, if you haven't one
Rest in my arms
Sleep in my bed
There is a design
To what I did and said
--Sufjan Stevens (Vito's Ordination Song)

I am convinced that neither death nor life, nor angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
--Romans 8:38

When faces called flowers float out of the ground
and breathing is wishing and wishing is having-
but keeping is downward and doubting and never
- it's april (yes april, my darling), it's spring!
yes the pretty birds frolic as spry as can fly
yes the little fish gambol as glad as can be
yes the mountins are dancing together)
--ee cummings (again)
