"Your must learn to stand up for yourself
Cause I can't always be around"

He says
When you gonna make up your mind
When you gonna love you as much as I do
When you gonna make up your mind
Cause things are gonna change so fast
All the white horses are still in bed
I tell you that I'll always want you near
You say that things change my dear

* a surprise, slobbery dog-kiss when you feel blah and down
* I've been in bed all day, down, and I hear my dog clicking his nails through the house, until he appears in front of me w/ his squeaky, doggy newspaper wagging his whole body
* waking up and realizing I slept for more solid hours than my sleep meds. knock me out for
* a new book
* listening to a cat-bird's song
* skipping class and sleeping instead
* anything not crappy in the cafeteria
* starbuck's mocha, no whip. . . hmmm
* using post-it notes
* new pens
* new markers
* an unexpected kind word about a difficult ceramics project

thanks for this post, I'm not sure I've used brain power to think about anything good in a while. Even if this is really old, thanks.
