by the time i reconise this moment...this moment will be gone.
I bought a notebook the other day -- a really pretty one -- and i couldn't decide what to do with it. so it sat in my bag, waiting for something - waiting for inspiration. Well, the day after i bought it i had a HORRIBLE day. Jake and i fought, work sucked and i think it rained all day. the rain was the best part of my day, in fact. So I decided to use my new book to enhance the forces of good.
I call it my book of beautiful moments. Every single day, before i go to bed I write about one beautiful moment I had that day. It could be anything as simple as a song taht made my heart happy wheni was walking home from work, a good table i had, a conversation with someone or a moment that i was lost in a happy memory. It's amazing because it puts your heart at ease before you go to sleep and it forces you to reflect on the beautiful moments you have instead of the sorrow and worry. There will always be things that make you sad. There will always be stress and anxiety. So why not focus instead on the things that bring your heart peace and joy?
I think you need a book of beautiful moments.

You like the John Mayer quotes, hey?
Good idea on the notebook. You need a beautiful notebook for a thing of beautiful moments. The problem in England is that you can't find a notebook that is longer than 200 pages (if you want spiral bound).
But I suppose that doesn't matter, because I'm home now...
You coming up for Thanksgiving? DJ is here!
And all will be well for you. I read a quote the other day that said "everything will turn out allright in the end. If it's not allright, it's not the end." Don't remember who said it, though.
As for me, I'm waiting patiently for the airline people todeliver my suitcase...
yeah, i went and saw John Mayer again in NY the other day. i would have phoned you...but it was about a week before you got home.
good stuff.

He's coming to Vancouver, but by the time I heard and tried to buy a ticket I could only get upper balcony - and I'm not paying eighty dollars I don't have so that I can see a little speck on a stage. I can listen to the cd for free, I guess.
Sigh.
I wish wish wish I could see him again.
