Cha bhithidh a leithid ami riamh.

I was reading the obituaries yesterday and came across the quote "Cha bhithidh a leithid ami riamh." It's scottish or gaelic or something but it translates into "His equal will never be among us again."... I like that.

I've been lost in so much good music today.

Three albums I own as of today:

1)Album from Girls-the song Hellhole Ratrace sold me.

2)A Sphere Needs A Square from The John Whites. Amazing. If you don't know of this band already, please please have a listen. Download the album here:

3) I finally gave in and purchased Up from Below from Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros. I really like 40 Day Dream.

.

My next purchase will be a new album from the band Real Estate. It actually just came out today-give it a listen.

I never thought I'd say this but....... I really miss the snow.

I miss the emotions that come with cold weather.

I miss wearing my black coat.

I miss the coffee garden with Dewon.

I miss the old house in provo.

I miss Velour.

I miss chucking massive icicles out of the second story windows with Ashley.

I miss driving in the snow at night pretending I was in Star Wars.

I guess I'm just kind of missing Utah today.

I've been listening to all of the mp3's on gorilla vs bear.

Probably one of my favorite music blogs.

.

I'm twenty two and I still have a lot to do.

not new but not old.

Today I came across an old familiar book.....Oh the Places You'll Go! by the marvelous Dr. Seuss.

That book was exactly what I needed to read right now-I don't think I really appreciated it until right now. I suggest that everyone should take a look at it if you haven't in a while.

This weekend my family was blessed with a new member. My sister and brother-in-law welcomed Connor Strong Hertig on sunday afternoon. I'm sad that they live so far away and I can't see the beautiful boy now!

.

My new favorite website: regretsy.com.

Look it up. You won't be sorry.

And now, I will end with one of my favorite Dr. Seuss quotes that I find to be absolutely true.

“I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, It's a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope. Which is what I do, And that enables you to laugh at life's realities.”
