"Too much on my mind,

Too much on my mind,

Too much on my mind,

Too much on my...

Here I am thinking again."

From the song When I Wake Up by Jill Scott.

Sometimes, I wake up in the morning feeling so inadequate and like such a failure.

The past month or so.

  

It sure is hard to get a date around here.

Someone pass the bone marrow.

Where shall I start...?

Thank God It's Friday!

"Zoe: How can you be such a bitch?
Madison: Because I understand people."

"What lessons do we learn from Anne Frank?"

From the October 14, 2013 New York Times article, Playing Cat and Mouse With Searing History: Museum of Tolerance Inaugurates an Anne Frank Exhibition, by Edward Rothstein.

Huh?

Good stuff at dinner with Judy and Junho.

"Free yourself,
That leash is long long long..."

From the song Buried Alive by the Yeah Yeah Yeahs.

"You can go your own way!
Go your own way,
You can call it another lonely day."

From the song Go Your Own Way by Fleetwood Mac.

"I was defiant. Hell-bent on surviving. On making it. But it was hard and it was lonely, and I had to dare myself every day to keep going. Sometimes I would play the victim and cry in my shoe box of a bedroom with a window that faced a wall, watching the pigeons shit on my windowsill. And I wondered if it was all worth it, but then I would pull myself together and look at a postcard of Frida Kahlo taped to my wall, and the sight of her mustache consoled me. Because she was an artist who didn't care what people thought. I admired her. She was daring. People gave her a hard time. Life gave her a hard time. If she could do it, then so could I."

Said by and written by Madonna in the November 2013 issue of Harper's Bazaar.

Words as names.

Unconditional.

I've really come to learn that the types of crazy people on NYC buses are quite different than the types of crazy people on the NYC subway.
