Musical Pipe Dream: I can’t fathom the guitar skills for this, so I imagine myself shredding the air guitar and making it back to the mic to sing each verse.

Blurb 1/365: Being myself is finally comfortable. Things will change for the better because of that.

Blurb 1/365: I was on an airplane today and the pilot said, “Ok folks, we’re starting to descend now so hopefully you’re all through partying because I’m going to have to put on the seat belt light. And WHOOMP! *ding* There it is! Heh heh heh.” Nobody laughed but me. Tough crowd.

Blurb 1_365: Today I was thinking about how my sisters and I would hang out with some of my cousins almost every weekend when we were kids. We’d play SEGA (Hang On, Ghostbusters, Sonic), Nintendo with the turbo controller (Super Mario Bros., Dig Dug, Bubble Bobble), hang out in the closet under their staircase just looking at books and eating Flower Candies, play baseball with a giant salami as a bat. Those times made great memories. If they’re reading this, they know who they are. Shout out to the sistas and the G’s.

Blurb 1/365: I saw a license plate today that read SMERLDA and I could hardly handle it. I’d just like to give a shout out to Esmeralda and her creativity.

Musical Pipe Dreams: From the point of view of a camera on our car’s dashboard, it records me in the passenger’s seat and James in the driver’s. It’s a sunny morning and I rap all the way to BART.

Blurb 1/365: I saw two mice on the BART tracks today. They were scurrying as fast as they could and covered with soot. I was rooting for them to follow their dreams.

Blurb 1/365:
The two things that I love most about Chipotle (other than the food):
1) Their iced tea. What is it? Lipton? I can’t get enough of it.
2) Their napkins. They are a perfect size with the folds in the right places and a great addition to our dinner table which is the coffee table in front of the TV.
I forgot my cellphone at home today. Albeit sort of ridiculous, I sort of felt like half a person without it. I didn’t have a pen or a book or a pamphlet to accompany me on my BART ride. On the plus side, I had the opportunity to see some things:
A sign that says “Ghirardelli Factory Store Now Open”
A big painted sign of the cartoon Pink Panther holding a pair of scissors
A pickup truck flatbed full of hamburger buns
A painted/decorated crosswalk (I wonder if more crosswalks could be like this?)
A few church steeples that I hadn’t noticed before
A lot of nice looking graffiti art
A lot of bad looking graffiti art
Many different types of roofs
A symphony of 7uP trucks getting ready to depart on their journey to different stores
A somewhat hidden playground with kids playing soccer in it
A man with a hairstyle reminiscent of DeBarge (I have been seeing this a lot lately)
So, it was pretty awesome. I’ll remember to do as the title of the BBC show says, “Look Around You”.
