:: Wednesday, March 29, 2006 ::

I've really been enjoying my latest bargain bin score, especially at night. I've never actually owned a lava lamp, and this is just a little one, but it makes me smile and trip on the colors, the colors! It ranks as the best five bucks I've spent frivolously on myself in quite a while. Most things I buy have a purpose, and in fact, I was in the place I bought it for some tasty new sheets and a nice-looking shoe rack. All practical Virgo-sounding stuff, right? But there's this kid in me that sometimes has to do the fun thing, too, just to keep it light (ha-- I really didn't intend that pun, but if the foo shits...).

While on the job, out and about in the city today, I saw a bumper sticker that I had to stop and write down. I wanted to try to make a song out of it (and this evening, I did manage to do something with it, but it's incomplete). It said: "You all laugh because I'm different, I laugh because you're all the same." I love the bittersweet feel to that, right up my songwriting alley these days. Been a little bit in the doldrums, but sometimes that makes me more prolific (yeah- I write more crap). People are up to their old tricks of disappointing me. And I? I'm guilty of letting them.
