Spreading the looove today. Though, I do not have a Valentine. So, here is my formal request, auto straddle will you be my Valentine? Nothing would make me feel fuzzier inside. Except for the scissoring sweatshirt.
“We’ve been playing this subconscious game of cat and mouse for seven years. My sister went to her alma mater and actually my sister stayed at her old apartment. Literally, we’ve been a step behind each other for years. We met for the first time and I asked her a million and one questions.”

Lately I daydream about running away. There’s an urge inside of me to run. I battle it at the grocery store, in train stations, in my dreams. I count down days, I pack bags for nowhere, I buy things for the future, I make plans that I know might never happen but that feel so good on the tip of my tongue. I satiate my wanderlust with Skype sessions and vacations to see the person I’m in love with, forgetting each time that eventually I will have to board a flight away from what we’ve built.
Every time she shares one of her stories I feel so damn lucky that I get to hear them for the rest of my life.
