I used to be much better at getting straight to the punch. I would only write about what mattered. Now, I meander and take the scenic route to get to what I want to say. “Longest way round is the shortest way home.” – James Joyce.
I get into a bad habit of doing what I want. 2/3 for tonight and I don’t know if I’ll make it to morning. 1. Hot shower 2. Ice cream.
Why is it that everybody who does drugs is so much cooler and casual about how hard life is? It is almost like they enjoy it. I have never once felt better than someone who gets high. When I was high, I did feel better than everyone though. I hated life when I enjoyed it.
I suppose it isn’t wise to write about love, falling in it and all. I was just a kid the first time I jumped in that puddle. I don’t think I’ve ever dried off. The good ol’ days were a rotten egg, but as of late, lately isn’t so bad. I’m using muscles I’ve never used before and the heart is a muscle.
