overheard

i just sent this convo to overheard in ny. look for it in a few weeks.

10 year old girl: the others kids were being mean. they hit me and pushed me down the stairs.

mom: did you fight back? i didnt raise no punk.

10 year old girl: they were just so mean.

mom: you need to learn to defend yourself and fight back, because if you dont i will have to find their parents and fight them.

10 year old girl: but you are pregnant...

mom: it doesnt matter

3 things...and john mayer

1. i bought four bathing suits (3 tops and one bottom) for four dollars total at h&m the other day. its 29 degrees outside. but i am prepared for the first hint of warm weather...whenever that will be. when does winter end? ive only experienced the three days of winter a year in texas.

2. i went to the movies the other day and i could feel the subway rumbling under my feet. weird. also, it was a daytime movie and it cost $11.25. ELEVEN TWENTY FIVE.

3. i went to my most fav mexican restaraunt the other night and it was freakin crowded. the hostess offered our table a round of shots for us to leave, so that he could free up our table. of course we said yes, even though we were about to leave anyway. then on the way back to the subway i heard the rocky theme song which gave me the urge to run up some steps. this did not happen, but i did spot the car that it was blasting from. there was a guy in there, wearing a headband. i pumped my fist in the air and he looked at me and did the same. then he turned to drive, but he was at a red light. so we pumped our fists at each other again...more awkward this time. but still awesome.

now for john mayer. i heard this song in h&m the other day and then found the video on youtube. its a song from the movie, 'bucketlist'. good lyrics.

john mayer, 'say'

you better know that in the end
its better to say too much
than never to say what you need to say again.

even if your hands are shaking
and your faith is broken
even as the eyes are closin
do it with a heart wide open

good song.

i need to go take off my face mask now.

kaaaaaaay

ive decided that i really need to invest in some slip on tennis shoes...and it might be about time for me to buy some cowboy boots. i havent worn those since i rode horses in second grade. they were red. i need boots. my feet are too cold up here, and people judge my ballet flats.

speaking of flats. tortilla flats is the best mexican food in nyc. and it is a crazy fun place.

kay bye.
