Legs leaden, he reached his floor as the sun rose directly ahead. How dare it shine so brightly when she was gone? Longing for darkness and rest, he turned the key and let himself in. The space betrayed him, still smelling of her. He fell to his knees and wept.

Here he was again. I swear he deposited the same dollars I gave him the day before. Should I be flattered? He waits until I'm open, doodling at the kiosk on the back of a deposit slip. I slap on my customer service smile. He grins, leaning towards me, slides the money forward.

He's her shadow!
How symbolic of when she finally hooks the "bad boy" black sheep of the family, or every plot of teen drama.

I just want to make you smile
To feel appreciated
I just want to pour love on you
To drink in the runoff
I just want to lift your heart
To ride on the updraft
I just want to make you smile

I just want to pour love on you
To drink in the runoff
I just want to lift your heart
To ride on the updraft

Will you save me
Like I saved you?
Will you be there
When no one else is?
Will you remember
When all else forget?
Will you attempt
What you cannot promise?

Last night I took my quiz, got 46 out of 50 by missing 2 questions. Then I read chapter 1 of another text.
It made me feel better about going book shopping today. I'm looking for a required autobiography. No luck Tomorrow I have a lot of homework to do. I have to start 4 different projects/papers.

Whoa. I just had a huge "old me" moment/reaction.
This is a new year. This is a new me!
I can't be thinking these thoughts!
They ALWAYS were wrong, made me suffer for no reason, and they feed my trauma instead of heal it.
Someone come snuggle with me with a cuppa tea and tell me about a good book

We all could see through his Scooby-Doo disguise
We weren't shaken by his act
It was simply the fact
His smile doesn't meet his eyes

Should I stay
Or should I go?
Plays over the radio
I let that wash over me
Fill me, asking the spirits
I reach in my potato chip bag of destiny
Pull out a whole chip
Dominance!
I shall make preparations at once!

I have only seen 3 second clips of a couple outrageous moments of the inauguration, but those seconds have been a public display of the lack of manners and tact the incoming party members and news media propagandists built and ENCOURAGED to grow and thrive at American hearths.
