a new soul!

ah, it's that time again here at the blog. a posted viral youtube video made popular from (what i'm told anyway, since i don't see commercials myself) those incredibly cool MacAir ads. thanks, josh. i love love love it.

i love it because the song is so pretty. i love it because my friend (as everyone knows) just had a baby and baby cal already is THIS WONDERFUL NEW SOUL on the planet. i also love it because the video inspires me to tear down the walls of my house. and then move on to a small lake. [did i already tell you that in addition to once harboring tree house fantasies, i've also wanted to live in a houseboat on and off forever? (a sailboat or yacht would suffice, too, i suppose ...)] sometimes i really just want to tear everything down ... build, tear down, build ... sigh. so it goes. let's blame the girl scouts again. i smell an international conspiracy afoot.

[ahem!] take a listen. try to smile at a complete stranger somewhere today. your soul needs less walls -- all of ours do.
