Ten days ago, my dear friend Damion celebrated his 34th birthday. In honour of his day, still important 10 days past, I give to him a series of lists. The lovely man asked for a list from everyone which ennumerated their top ten favorite books.
My mind has been way too out there to focus on moving, let alone lists of any kind. But given I have finally been able to write something cogently, slightly substantive, I think I can now push myself on with this. Not a hard thing, just a sweet thing to a sweet friend.
...in no particular order...

i feel accomplished that i know all of those albums...and yea, that i even introduced you to Linea77 (one of the most awesomest italian bands...ever) I am smug that i, i, i am the instigator of gilmore girl love, and that i at least know what each of those shows are, even if i've only ever seen 3 of them. shamed that i've only seen five of my most beloved boyfreind's top 10 movies (and haven't even heard of four of them, and shocked that i did not know that Of Mice and Men and Jane Eyre ranked so high on your books list.
of the experience list, i can only say...i blush.
Sweet mother of mary, I made it number 3 on your favorite moments of all time. I feel deeply honored and priviledge to know that i am just under kissing the girl. I wonder where you would put kissing me?
thank you PS... You are a wonderful friend. Much Mad Love!!!!
