there are mornings that as i wake i feel a calling so strong to stretch out my toes before me. and i usually consent before my wits are fully formed to stop me.
the result is a short-lived charlie horse. and short-lived or not, it is painful.
i awoke to that. and the song eleanor rigby stuck in my head.
i wrote a fifteen page paper back in school about this song. i lived, breathed and dreamt the song. numerous pauses during class by my teachers asking me to refrain from humming. best lines:
"waits at the window, wearing the face that she keeps in a jar by the door. who is it for?"
a charley horse and eleanor rigby? what a staggering combination.
perhaps you'll learn something revolutionary today. something important in a small way.
maybe you'll change someone's life without knowing it.
regardless--you have a fabulous song in your head!!
ps. thank you so much for your sweet words. but please take note-- a comment is only as good as it's original post :) you give me some fabulous material to work with. love your blog :)

Oh, don't you hate that? Stretching feels so good, until . . .
Here's hoping the day turns out beautifully anyway!
