365 day two

365

I spent today rearranging my closet. I always feel better when Things are organized. There is a dress that I have had since 1997. It's tight and black. The material is something I can only describe as a half breed of vinyl and leather. I would never wear in again, but can't seem to part with it. It's slowly becoming an antique, as far as I am concerned. I love to throw things away. I love starting over and redefining myself and my life. It's confusing when there really isn't any one thing that defines you. Part of me wants that, but I also want to evolve.

Good Bye Red Hair

She speaks the truth/ Bjork part two

This month I have exhausted all of my reserved emotional energy to survive peacefully amongst the people I know. This is pointless. People are irrational. The details are not important.

Here are some lyrics that sum it up by our favorite Icelandic song nymph

Bjork - Human Behavior Lyrics

If you ever get close to a human

And human behavior

Be ready to get confused

There's definitely no logic

To human behavior

But yet so irresistible

There's no map

To human behavior

They're terribly moody

Then all of a sudden turn happy

But, oh, to get involved in the exchange

Of human emotions is ever so satisfying

There's no map

And a compass

Wouldn't help at all

Human behavior

Multitasking on the freeway
San Diego Rain
multitasking on the freeway

Rain drops on my car window

listening to the rhythm of the falling rain

The unpleasant events of yesterday night caused some pretty intense dreams. I bet the tylenol pm helped induce them as well. I was relieved to have woken up and face the unusually cold day. Now I have to shake off the grogginess and bad taste in my mouth and go to work in San Diego. Oh, how I love driving in the rain.

That stray

She goes to my band's shows.
She calls me on the phone.
She is encouraging and caring.
She takes long drives with me.
She tells me the truth.
She confides in me.

She is my friend.

Dear Planned Parenthood

I just wanted to say thank you. You gave me a place to go when I was 16 for my birth control options. It was a quite awkward asking my father to take me. Though you enabled the inevitable "I'm going to have sex with my boyfriend now" talk. I don't know if most other teenagers did what I did. I cared more about not getting pregnant than the embarrassment.
Remember the days I came in hunched over with tears in my eyes? Yes, you took care of me when I had my UTI infections. I am forever grateful for the all the pap smears. The ones I didn't have to pay for. Tomorrow we have an engagement. I will get my free prescription for YAZ bcp, make my donation and be on my merry way. Thanks again.

Love,
Desiree
