Gin and Milk
I think to myself on uncertain terms
I put gin in my milk
To kill all the germs
As I pray for the day
The light will return
And I pray for myself
But I never learn
No I never learn
See I really like you
But I'm nothing like you
I try really hard
But don't get so far
You get my respect
But we don't connect
We're in it together
So I love you forever
I love you forever
And so it...
No one gives a fuck about the values I would die for
Not the basic civil servant, the rudimentary crack whore
No one gives two fucks about the values I would kill for
Give them something to die for
Give me something to die for

A Light in the Attic
Whatif
by Shel Silverstein
Last night, while I lay thinking here,
some Whatifs crawled inside my ear
and pranced and partied all night long
and sang their same old Whatif song:
Whatif I'm dumb in school?
Whatif they've closed the swimming pool?
Whatif I get beat up?
Whatif there's poison in my cup?
Whatif I start to cry?
Whatif I get sick and die?
Whatif I flunk that test?
Whatif green hair grows on my chest?
Whatif nobody likes me?
Whatif a bolt of lightning strikes me?
Whatif I don't grow taller?
Whatif my head starts getting smaller?
Whatif the fish won't bite?
Whatif the wind tears up my kite?
Whatif they start a war?
Whatif my parents get divorced?
Whatif the bus is late?
Whatif my teeth don't grow in straight?
Whatif I tear my pants?
Whatif I never learn to dance?
Everything seems well, and then
the nighttime Whatifs strike again!

Losing the feeling of feeling unique...
"A creative and inventive sign, Aries, the Ram, governs leadership and initiative. Aries people are bold and self-confident, although they tend to be overly impulsive.
The Sun, the ruler of our inner nature, is very well placed in Aries. This energy is very attractive, even compelling, and few can resist being carried along in the jet stream. Aries are always overflowing with ideas, schemes and plans to conquer the world.
Aries are great organizers, full of flair and originality, although usually lacking discipline and the capacity for prolonged. You are intuitive and articulate, with the capacity to inspire others, especially in projects which have a clear outcome and do not require a long lead-time.
You have masses of energy and courage and will rush in where angels fear to tread, for the Aries ego can be rather overbearing. Undue optimism, or impatience and desire for self-aggrandizement can result in wasted effort or even severe setbacks and disappointment.
Creative Aries, a cardinal sign, loves to be the leader and can organize fantastic and impressive ventures. Unfortunately, despite your desire to be the front-runner in all you do, sometimes you do get bored with the whole affair and can just wander off, or sit back and allow the lesser folk to have their way. This can see the whole house of cards collapsing, but happily your enthusiasm is easily roused and when you set your mind to it you can inspire others to stick to those essential jobs that sometimes seem no more than the merest details to the noble Ram. You see, painful as this may seem, you really need the team as much as the team needs you!"

"Because she is my sister. Therefore one half of me."
Well, I miss my other half. Terribly. I always wonder what she's doing. I wish we were closer together, driving distance would be nice.
ILY, Anni.
