Sleepy Ramblings

It's funny thinking about random little things, the kind of little things that seep into my thoughts and sit there for a while. I look over each individual detail and inspect them, string them out in a line, or in some cases a few. I watch, I gaze, I spectate.

I'd be in my own little world, my own little snowglobe, secluded from the rest of the planet. It wouldn't be perfect, but wouldn't it be cool? (Pun not intended.) p.s. I f
