i've done six of these things in the past three years

there are five things on this list that i really don't want to do.

i can remember making the list. we were down in belmar in our bedroom, we had candles lit everywhere and we were giggling and throwing things at each other fantasing about the life that lay before us and all of the amazing things that we were going to do.

then we stopped talking. she liked liquor i liked jesus and that didn't work for a while.

last night we reconnected though and talked about the list. we hung out at mr martinaks house and smoked cigarettes on his back porch and finished each other sentences just like we used to in ninth grade. the only walls that existed were the walls that we created and as it turned out, they weren't even really there.

it was perfect - the church girl leaning on her badass counterparts shoulder reflecting on the good old days when labels served no purpose...
