fires are bad, but they make the most amazing sunsets. and despite the unhealthy, dirty, brown, and hazy air circulating right now, i found someone new for my ears to drown on.

Corn meal mush

both boys jetted on a plane today to attend services for their dad's grandmother.
she was a real sweetheart, the kind that fusses over you 24/7 just because they love you. i loved waking up in the morning knowing waiting downstairs was the best homemade cornmeal mush evar. so delish and sweet dressed up with butter and syrup. so so yummy. i miss knowing this is really only a memory now.

Left Behind

Zero 7

i know the boyz are taken care of splendidly and have fun no matter where they are, though i miss them differently when they thousands of miles away. not any more than usual, but differently because of the distance. i'll just be very excited and happy when they return. both the service and the boys gone makes me feel all sad, yet aware of being fortunate knowing i love those i care around me deeply and they know it.

on repeat is the original version and live version of stereophonics, maybe tomorrow. there are only a few songs i could listen to all day and today is one of those days.

peace out as my sons say. hug someone today, they might need it

Maybe Tomorrow

behind the bars

Elliott Smith - Between The Bars

Drink up baby, stay up all night
With the things you could do
You won't but you might

The potential you'll be that you'll never see
The promises you'll only make
Drink up with me now
And forget all about the pressure of days
Do what I say and I'll make you okay
And drive them away
The images stuck in your head

The people you've been before
That you don't want around anymore
That push and shove and won't bend to your will
I'll keep them still

Drink up baby, look at the stars
I'll kiss you again between the bars
Where I'm seeing you there with your hands in the air
Waiting to be finally caught
Drink up one more time and I'll make you mine
Keep you apart, deep in my heart
Separate from the rest, where I like you the best
And keep the things you forgot

The people you've been before
That you don't want around anymore
That push and shove and won't bend to your will
I'll keep them still

seaweed and beer

nobody@vox.com(L) — Thu, 16 Aug 2007 17:59:55 -0700

have been anticipating this trip for months. off to oahu soon for a family reunion this weekend, then spending extended time on kauai. hurricane flossie just passed... thank goodness there was no major damage to the big island.

i have spent more time on kauai than any other island, probably explains why it's my favorite. i'm always in awe during my visits -- the entire island is so peaceful and absolutely gorgeous.

my grandparents lived on kauai and we visited at least once or twice a year growing up. only since i've gotten older have i wished i spent more time with them when i was younger. but the memories are vivid, especially of my grandfather.

he'd take us for jeep rides on the beach in kekaha. back then i remember being driven for miles and never seeing any other cars on the road or people on the beach. simply paradise.

early morning we'd go fishing at barking sands and he'd pack a little cooler with bait and some snacks for himself. i forgot to eat the time i went with him. so all he could do was offer me seaweed and beer (budweiser i think) for breakfast as he smiled sweetly and laughed...

he'd make his own pork rinds and keep them in the oven. this way they always stayed a little warm whenever we wanted a snack. not the healthiest of snacks but mmm mmm good.

accompanying us to super-secret slip and slides (fenced off long ago) were always good times.

and along the road to polihale are sugar cane fields, as most of kauai had back then. we'd only have to ask him and he'd pull out his machete and cut cane for us where ever we were. this is the best and only way to eat sugar cane. period.

getting ready for this trip along with attending the reunion, made me realize how much i loved him and miss him along with the time he spent with us.

this is why it feels like going home.

unrelated to anything... rachael yamagata gots herself a new album coming out. soon. i hope. was listening to her album teaser and it fit very well as i wrote this.

keep it kind

keep it good

keep it right
