I just couldn't help myself

I have seen this meme on a few different blogs (A cup full of Sunshine
The Girls who Married a Bear, ThriftCandy) recently and couldn't help but do one myself.

If I was a month, I’d be April.

If I was a day of the week, I’d be Thursday.
If I was a time of day, I’d be the dead of night.
If I was a planet, I’d rather be a star.

If I was an animal, I’d be a cat.

If I was a direction, I’d be north.

If I was a piece of furniture, I'd be an oak desk.
If I was a liquid, I’d be hot tea.

If I was a gemstone, I’d be a moonstone or amethyst.
If I was a tree, I’d be an oak or a fern (not a tree, I know).

If I was a tool, I’d be a fork.

If I was a flower, I’d be a poppy.

If I was a kind of weather, I’d be a misty day.
If I was a musical instrument, I’d be a bell.
If I was a color, I’d be purple.

If I was an emotion, I’d be curiosity.

If I was a fruit, I’d be a fig.

If I was a sound, I’d be the sound of rain.
If I was an element, I’d be wind.
If I was a car, I’d be a 67’ Mustang.

If I was a food, I’d be hearty and vegetarian.

If I was a place, I’d be a cozy book nook or window seat.
If I was a material, I’d be denim.
If I was a taste, I’d be bitter.
If I was a scent, I’d be the smell of nag champa.

spring poem

spring is sweet
spring is cute
it kinda makes me want to puke
some of the things I love/want that are the antitheses of cute, sweet, and pastel

"If neurotic is wanting two mutually exclusive things at one and the same time, then I'm neurotic as hell. I'll be flying back and forth between one mutually exclusive thing and another for the rest of my days."
