happy new year!

my feet are barried in the sand, and there's a breeze

there's a shadow, you can't see my eyes

and the sea is just a wetter version of the skies.

*****

we spent new years.. on the beach!

i loved the decorations!

it was very cold/windy,

and the dancers were.. interesting

~this was my mom and i's conversation about them~

mom.. "i wish i could see them rehearse"

me.. "why?"

mom.. "they might say something like.. ooh, that was a good move!" or "i love that booty shake, let's put it in!"

*****

although i loved the night.. kj had the most fun! ~wink wink~

Dad "are the preliminary and primary defense systems ready for combat, commander KJ?!"

KJ "yes they are, captain"
