Camera Obscura - 'Return To Send Her'

Album: Let's Get Out Of This Country



Mephisto remarked that he didn't think I smiled a lot - or enough. You hardly smile, said he. Smile. What - is it my aftershave? Do you want me to change it - something that smells like what your favorite boyfriend wore?

It was almost funny ...

Except it reminded me how much I wish I could smell you again.

Bishop Allen - 'Busted Heart'

Album: Charm School



I feel Mephisto is slowly breaking my spirit.

And I'm feeling so cold lately ...

Denison Witmer - 'Are You A Dreamer'

Album: Are You A Dreamer?



Feel stressed out by Mephisto and my first day. That man might drive me stark raving crazy soon; either that, or I'd be quitting in tears.

But when he wasn't talking to me or bugging me, I'd be thinking of you and missing you. Which was - is - all too frequently.

Which will definitely drive me stark raving crazy.

But I can't help it, no matter how silly or cheesy that seems.

The Killers - 'Read My Mind'

Album: Sam's Town


I never really gave up on
Breakin' out of this two-star town
I got the green light
I got a little fight
I'm gonna turn this thing around

Can you read my mind?
Can you read my mind?

How I dread going home on New Year's day with a broken heart.

The Frames - 'Star Star (Pure Imagination)'

Album: Set List (Live)



Sometimes, I get so scared so suddenly. A shot of insecurity out of the blue. And all I'd want to do is to curl into a ball and play music that reassures me and stay in forever.

I wonder why.

Falling down into situations
Bringing out the best in you
You're flat on your back again
And star you're every word I'm heeding
Can you help me to see
I'm lost in the marsh

Close your eyes
Count to three
Make a wish

Come with me
And we'll be
In a world of your imagination

Star star teach me how to shine shine
Teach me so I know what's going on in your mind ...

Scarlet - 'Independent Love Song'

Album: Independent Love Song (single)



Explaining how dirty dancing with a girl could cause my baby to hurt to Desmond was hilarious.

His theory was there should've been a hollow point between the two sets of breasts, which would allow my baby to remain relatively untouched. Sanice and I just looked at each other.

Also: Got my microdermal today!

(... And serious bruising.)

Belly - 'Full Moon, Empty Heart'

Album: Star



So beautiful out tonight: The moon was far away, but still bright and full; the sky was clear and scattered with stars.

Have to make sure I'm extremely exhausted before I fall into bed; have to re-learn to fall asleep without you.

Space - 'Female of the Species'

Album: Spiders

Outta the blue, the mother popped into my room and said, "Nobody asked you out tonight? Christmas Eve? No boyfriend asked you out?"

And I was like ... WTF?

Boyfriend? I mean, since when did she care whether or not I was seeing someone?

Boyfriend?!

No, seriously: What. The. Fuck.

Maren Ord - 'Waiting'

Album: Waiting

Grr. Stupid Sex Fiend called and made me miss your call the first time.

Maren Ord - 'Waiting'

Album: Waiting

Chris called out of the blue, just before I left to meet Rach.

Tonight: dinner (Basil Alcove), dessert (Ricciotti), first drinks (Crazy Elephant), and finally second drinks and dance (The Pump Room).

It's been a lovely day and I'm high, but I still miss you.

However, I got my tickets today, and I'm going to see you soon.

Elliott Smith - 'Say Yes'

Album: Either/Or

I miss you.

You left without a kiss.

How am I going to sleep tonight?

Maggie Gyllenhaal - 'Just The Way You Are' (Billy Joel cover)

Album: Happy Endings OST

Don't know; was thinking about how to handle it, then about how I didn't want to - or couldn't - but finally realized that I was already thinking about how, so didn't want to, couldn't, doesn't even come into play.

If x is a given, then y and z don't exist.
