"And I wonder if anybody here besides me has got any decent secrets"

When I was sixteen a constant fall-back conversation at parties among Those In The Know was how Heartbreaker was Ryan Adam's masterpiece and everything else sucked.

But I've been getting into all the other albums I was too snobby to examine then, and they are great.

Broke like a stem and I guess you're with him,
I'm sure that he treats you just fine.
So bottoms up, cheers, baby, here's to your tears!
And all of your roses have died.

Better luck in the next life
I'll miss you, but go on, goodbye.

Damn, Lisa took me to school today:
"I'm mean."
"Not really.... if you want to be, you can. But don't act like you dont want to be a mean person if you're being mean."

Pretty is as pretty does. I forgot this for a while.
And I was just talking about Ms. Munn's advice: choose love.

Um.
"Pisceans possess a gentle, patient, malleable nature. They have many generous qualities and are friendly, good natured, kind and compassionate, sensitive to the feelings of those around them, and respond with the utmost sympathy and tact to any suffering they encounter. They are deservedly popular with all kinds of people, partly because their easygoing, affectionate, submissive natures offer no threat or challenge to stronger and more exuberant characters. They accept the people around them and the circumstances in which they find themselves rather than trying to adapt them to suit themselves, and they patiently wait for problems to sort themselves out rather than take the initiative in solving them.

"They long to be recognized as greatly creative [this kills me. 'long to be' as opposed to 'are'. pretty perfect]. They also dislike disciple and confinement. The nine-to-five life is not for them. Any rebellion they make against convention is personal, however, as they often times do not have the energy or motivation to battle against the Establishment."

Going to have to disagree here, though:
"They are sexually delicate, in the extreme almost asexual, and most Pisceans would want a relationship in which the partner's mind and spirit rather than the body resonated with their own. Unfortunately they can be easily misled by a lover who courts them delicately and in marriage makes them unhappy by a coarser sexuality than they expected. They are nevertheless intensely loyal and home-loving and will remain faithful. [okay that last part is true]"
