I fell for you like leaves from autumn trees. With ease. Inevitably.

“Electricity” by Dua Lipa, Silk City, Diplo and Mark Ronson on repeat as I clean today.

A gloomy sky, upper 60s, a slight chill in a steady breeze, tiny droplets of cold rain. My favorite type of weather.

The last minute of “Chlorine” by Twenty One Pilots does things to my soul.

My niece and the dog have been very loving recently. My niece runs to the door to greet me after work and the dog curled up in my arms like a baby and has found her way into my bed. I’ll take what I can before it goes back to the norm.

If the rear-view mirror isn’t shaking, the music’s not loud enough.

What a heavenly way to die
What a time to be alive
Because forever is in your eyes
But forever ain’t half the time
I wanna spend with you
I wanna be with you

- “Heavenly Way to Die” by Troye Sivan

I will never not sing “Beauty and the Beast” by Peabo Bryson and Celine Dion - word for word, both parts with background vocals included - when it comes on.

My family is one of a kind, truly. When we put distance between us and those who are entirely wrong in their behavior, we’re told we need to get our act together and that God doesn’t like ugly people.

“Oh these times are hard / yeah they’re making us crazy / don’t give up on me, baby” - For the First Time by The Script.
