Remember, you don't have to make the whole world romantic, or even the whole bedroom. Just the small space in front of your face. A very manageable territory, even the working women will agree. Because when he looks at you (or she--romance has no biases!), he has to look through the air in front of your face. Is that space polluted. Is it rosy? Is it misty? Think about these questions during the lunch break.
We ate our sandwiches and looked at each other through the air in front of our faces. It looked clear, but maybe it wasn't. We thought hard about this while we drank the provided soda. This could change everything.
-Miranda July, "It Was Romance"
we'll have a bookstore filled with books
we'll have a cupboard filled with chocolates
we'll drink tea like the british and eat baguettes like the french
we'll go camping in the mountains and hiking in the woods
we'll go for road trips and museum tours
we'll wear proper coats in the cold and let our limbs shake free in the sun
we'll live the life we'd like some day--
but for now, let's sit in bed and dream it
