Now that we've met

We can only laugh at these regrets

Common as a winter cold

They're telephone poles

They follow each other

One, after another, after another

But now my heart is green as weeds

Grown to outlive their season

And nothing comforts me the same

As my brave friend who says,

"I don't care if forever never comes

'Cause I'm holding out for that teenage feeling

I'm holding out for that teenage feeling"

All the loves we had

All we ever knew

Did they fill me with so many secrets

That keep me from loving you

'Cause it's hard, hard

"That Teenage Feeling"

Genetics

My father was messy with food. I am too. I am at work walking around with chocolate all over my shirt due to an unfortunate melty Dove Bar accident. I kept trying to make it better and, of course, ended up making it much, much worse (isn't that the way it always goes?) by smearing the chocolate everywhere. I need a bib.

I can't find a blog template I like. This is like the third one I've tried today.

How will you know if you've found me at last?

'Cause I'll be the one, be the one, be the one

With my heart in my lap.

I'm so tired.

I'm so tired.

And I wish I was the moon tonight.

Supposedly they are equally great and very similar. I'm a little confused by the comparison. Maybe if I knew anything about music (besides what I like and don't like) I would connect the influences and all that junk.

Good, Things That Are

1. Getting so tickled you can't stop laughing.
2. New music.
3. Neko Case.
4. Leiderhosen.
5. Looking at a friend and knowing you're thinking exactly the same thing.
6. It being Wednesday instead of Tuesday.
7. Possibilities.

I love oatmeal creme pies. This is not something I'm particularly proud of because I'm pretty sure they're disgusting, but oh well. One of my favorite things about giving blood is getting my OCP. Last time I donated they were out, so I bought a box to make up for it. Bad idea.
