Can you say "toy boat" five times fast without screwing it up? If so, awesome. I'm glad we're friends.
I want to carry 27 red balloons over the Brooklyn Bridge. Why red balloons? I can't answer that -- I like red I guess. Why 27? It just sounds like a fun number to me. Maybe I would fly away -- like a modern day Mary Poppins who goes place to place as the wind changes or at least until my balloons deflate.
I wear black almost everyday. Is it in tribute to the late, great Jonny Cash? No. It is chic like New York City, the place I live and adore almost as much as California, the other place I call home.
I'm Swedish. You wouldn't guess that by my last name, but if you come to my home around Christmas time, you'll hear one mean rendition of Yingle Bells. We'll even feed you Ostkaka.
I'm partly sunny with a side of sarcasm, but I am terrible at predicting impending weather patterns. You are better off watching the nightly news.
I used to think everything was black and white. I was wrong. I'm learning how to embrace the gray. I think everyone should.
I am into un-earthing new music for my ears every single day of my life. You probably don't know the music I listen to now, but you will eventually.
I love all things French. French music, French Vogue, the Eiffel Tower, the accent. However, I could for go the Escargot. J'Adore aller a Paris! Allons-y vite! Ticket to Paris? Yes, please.
I really like cheese.
You follow? Good.
If not, see below.
I'm imperfect. I love Jesus with my whole heart. I have faith. I get along with my parents really well. Music may be my one true love. I'm a singer of songs in the shower. I laugh all the time at inappropriate things and in uncomfortable situations. I love new places and people. I'm a nomad trying to find out where I want to be. I have moved back and forth across the country twice. New York City is where I currently reside. I don't know what's next-but I trust in God to direct my steps. Procrastination is my middle name. I'm a creative soul. I'm always 10 minutes late. I don't do mornings. I'm horrible at spelling. My cell phone is never on and I don't call people back. Sometimes I just want to be silent. Sometimes I like the spotlight. I am constantly craving Taco Bell. I love to hear jokes, but can't re-tell them worth beans. I swear like a sailor sometimes. I sometimes get stressed out with too many people around. I'm stubborn, but I like to think I'm open minded. I'm in constant reverie. I'm trying not to forget who I am in this constantly changing world. I'm holding on tightly to the little innocence I have left. I'm learning that it's not WHAT you have in this life but WHO you have in this life that brings the real joy. I can't believe I get this life. I have been blessed.

Today has been a day of many things:
A day of dehydration, after a few Stella pints.
A day of hydrating.
A day of giggling.
A day of me wanting to do CARTWHEELS because I sleuthed around airline ticket web sites for most of the morning and got a cheap, DIRECT flight to …
