let's hear it for supertramp:
lyric time once again for me, lyric time. it totally fits my mood (life feeling unstable, me being confused, hurt, unhappy):
When I was young, it seemed that life was so wonderful,
a miracle, oh it was beautiful, magical.
And all the birds in the trees, well they'd be singing so happily,
joyfully, playfully watching me.
Then they send me away to teach me how to be sensible,
oh logical, responsible, practical.
And they showed me a world where I could be so dependable,
clinical, oh, intellectual, cynical.
There are times when all the world's asleep,
the questions run too deep
for such a simple man.
Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned
I know it sounds absurd
but please tell me who I am.
Now watch what you say or they'll be calling you a radical,
liberal, fanatical, criminal.
Won't you sign up your name, we'd like to feel you're
acceptable, oh, respectable, oh, presentable, a vegetable!
At night, when all the world's asleep,
the questions run so deep
for such a simple man.
Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned
I know it sounds absurd
but please tell me who I am!

so that's that. i'm writing obsessively again. i have banners running (very strange feeling).
i'm moving in 9 days.
i'm facing being apart from my sweetie.
i'm facing my own insecurities of being able to carry out a frickin' disseration.
it is all sort of - sort of awful.
and frightening.
***
anyways, one step at a time. that is all i can really do.
later gaters.
