IT IS NICE OUTSIDE

It is very nice outside. I hear birds and the faint whisper of trees.

I knew this woman from Catalan once and she would pronounce "birds" as "beards." This sounds like a common mispronounciation but it confused me. "Look at tbe beards!"

Sometimes I wish a ladder would drop to the sky and I would climb it. When I got to the top I would see stars and be able to stand on clouds. And there would be a couch that I could take back to my apartment so I wouldn't have to be bothered with Craigslist.
