stuff.

- my computer at work started to shit all over itself, which just killed my morning. Fortunately the alleve and tea seem to be doing the trick. Screw soda* forever.

+ steve bought me a latte to compensate for my caffeine crash, and then we went to the bookstore, where he bought a lot of books.

- I'm really nonplussed by the new trend of "light fiction" - it all looks like Bridget Jones' Diary + internet, or girls trying to sleep with rockstars... I dunno, I always think plots are stupid, and I guess my life is just actually interesting now. Actually, what I said was that every single person we know is pretty much a caricature, so knowing them is more interesting than reading a book "based on" them.

+ the weather. oh my god, the weather. 60 and drizzly, leaves are changing, i'm drinking hot tea and i'm madly in love with seattle again. the summer i adore, but the autumn is sublime. it crawls up under your skin and just when you least expect it, burns into your brain. I'm even wearing sandals it feels so good. the rain makes everything look so clear, colors so bright, as I seem to walk through a cloud.

- let's not even talk about my social/personal life. Completely in shambles. I think more will be revealed in a FO post.

i never ever do this, so deal.

I'm not going down on my knees
Begging you to adore me
Can't you see it's misery
And torture for me
When I'm misunderstood
Try as hard as you can
I've tried as hard as I could
To make you see
How important it is for me

Chorus
Here is a plea
From my heart to you
Nobody knows me
As well as you do
You know how hard it is for me
To shake the disease
That takes hold of my tongue
In situations like these


Understand me


Some people have to be
Permanently together
Lovers devoted
To each other forever
Now I've got things to do
And I've said before
That I know you have too
When I'm not there
In spirit I'll be there

by the way...

Sometimes you guys* creep me out. Like, when some guy is all "You should do this, because I liked it when my girlfriends did this." And I'm just thinking "Right, because I AM SO GOING TO BE YOUR GIRLFRIEND." Or even better is when guys talk about the type of sexual crap they like in that way. I mean, you know, JUST IN CASE. Right. OK.
