Well, can I just say .. and I'm being completely honest, Poca. But I don't think you can just tag on the end of a thread about making jokes and then just make a joke. You know what I mean? I mean, what if people have feelings at stake and you crush them and they kill themselves or something like that? Know what I mean? That shit would just be too harsh. So I hope you can appreciate that I'm just being honest here.

Honesty appreciated.
I'll shut up...

Can I just say...

You have a beautiful, beautiful voice to match your beautiful, beautiful mind, and I'll never get tired of hearing it.

You know who you are.

CIJS

I have to push myself tonight because I forgot to put a nicotine patch on last night and haven't put one on all day... really feeling the pressure to cave in and have a cigarette right now. The only good thing is that I don't have any.

And I really don't feel like going to school tonight. But as with quitting smoking, I will push myself to go to school because that's one more day closer to graduating.

Be strong, N. You can do this!

CIJS you fucking fucks at CTRAN that redrew bus routes are really fucking with my commute.

CIJS my friends continue to be absolutely amazing. You guys make a world of difference to me.

Can I just say

In my garden there are gnomes and angels
there are trolls and gargoyles
there's a demon or two.
Beds of poppies growing, no one taller than another
there are fluffy little bunnies
and of course there's always you.
Running, playing, falling
singing, laughing, weeping
days go by uncounted and the night time's just the same.
Everyone is welcome
no one cast away
still most who show up leave out the way they came.

Seasons come and seasons go
but my garden's always spinning
the one thing you can count on is the ever falling rain.
Yellow ovals, oblong blues, little white drops
distorting my vision and clouding my ambitions
but blocking out the pain.

In my garden there are lush green paths
there are dense thorny thickets
but I know my way through.
Lovely little water lilies
evergreen ivies climbing trees
and then of course there's always you.
Swing with me a while
we can listen to the birds call
we can keep each other warm.
Swing with me forever
we can count up every flower
we can weather every storm.

Can I just say that is very nice.  Did you make it up yourself, completely honestly?

That's beautiful, o Lost One.
