someone once sang a birthday song in danish for me..

It was October, and I was in Seattle. He was a musician from Denmark and a friend of my friend. He shared his music and sang me a birthday song in Danish.

I once had a party in my bedroom. My friends they were all there, and we sang and we drank until they told us to stop. "Fill me butter cup" don't break my heart. Arms around each other we sang and we drank, and our hearts were full.

I had a picnic with a dear friend and she made the best picnic basket. We ate the finest foods. We talked about God knows what, I just remember thinking,"how lucky am i to have such a fine friend"

I've walked the coasts of san francisco, and hiked its hills too...more than once can i say I've seen the golden gate bridge.

I've been to canada, and they searched my car because our story sounded suspicious... we waited as they searched an amish family's car as well.



I once walked along the shore of malibu with a friend and we drank our hot drinks watching surfers at sunset. He gave me his jacket to keep me warm.

I once dipped my feet in the waters of the eastern shore with a friend and she and i both imagined ourselves across the ocean...we drank tea and coffee and a bee landed in my espresso. I'm afraid of bees.

I once did an open mic all on my own.. well not all on my own, i had a little bit of vodka and a lot a bit of friends.

I used to dance inside a bar, he used to pick me up and we would swing. His girls were never jealous because it was only ever a dance.. but oh how we danced.

I once went to ohio and rode through the soy fields and past the cows. I heard stories about the house we walked through and i could feel its history.

Ive climbed rocks i used to fear, and have stood a close distance away from a buffalo.

I used to take walks with another friend, just to talk. We would go to Jason's deli.. and we would eat and talk some more. We didn't always agree but respected each other very much.

Ive run away from where i was and we stumbled as we did, but then we'd laugh and fall asleep and talk about it in the morning.

Ive stayed up all night and wandered all day...

and i am far from done.
