i like balloons

this is a tentative post, because i'm not sure if i actually like balloons. on one hand, balloons are marvelous little wonders that inspire thoughts of freedom and childlike glee, but on the other hand, they can explode in your face (rude), and they're little jerks to blow up sometimes. also, given to the wrong person, they can emit extremely irritating sounds. never fun.

maybe a good compromise is this statement: i like pictures of balloons. balloons are always pictured in a great way. they're very photogenic. i have never seen a bad picture of a balloon.











however, exceptions to that statement include hot air balloons. hot air balloons are an awkward shape. they're like the weird, kind of gawky kid you know who shows up to a party and then just ruins the atmosphere because he never says the right thing... but somehow everyone else in the world likes him. anyway.

i wish i had a balloon.
