Keep Out
I used to build forts in our living room out of large euro pillows from my parent’s bed and a yellow sateen blanket my grandmother made. Inside, I felt like I had a home.
I also liked playing in cardboard boxes. I would close the top up and poke holes through the sides to let the light in. It was a starry night sky and I was the moon.

love,

An introduction
Dear So and So,
I’ve started this blog and am both scared and excited about what it all could mean. My friend urged me to find an outlet for my musings, so here I go. I think I’m going to primarily focus on my pursuit of love in a loveless city (sigh), Los Angeles. Why is it so hard for a twentysomething to get a little lovin in this crazy town? You’re probably thinking I have...
