borrowed words
12:27 a.m.
i borrowed the following from b.'s diary...i hope he doesn't mind. i've already got him to put two wonderful entries in gr8test-hits, but i just wanted to share this with y'all...i especially love the last few lines.
" i wish i could permanently live inside the weekends where i just laze around and laugh when vilera tells me i look straight in my new denim jacket and ponder the curious nature of the two of us and how there really is such a thing as "normal" and everyone around us is just that just NORMAL and we only really enjoy the very few individuals who aren't NORMAL aren't riding the wave of bar scenes or having children or getting married or looking for contentment because what could possibly be as boring and normal as contentment and what could be more outrageous that is more of an OUTRAGE than settling down and pay attention to settling down it means to SETTLE for something current for something present for something droopy for something consistent that doesn't grow in the grand scope of things that sits and smiles and has sex and goes to work and to weddings and baby showers and almost consciously chooses to ignore the things around them that remind them of the dreams they either had or never finished creating because they got busy and they got tired and soon they found themselves in a place where instead of dreaming they'd rather just give up and SETTLE for something as normal as contentment. what if i end up like that?"
