Moodylicious

Hank: 'People seem to be getting dumber and dumber. I mean we have all this amazing technology and yet computers have turned into basically four figure wank machines. The Internet was supposed to set us free, democratize us, but all it’s really given us is Howard Dean’s aborted candidacy and 24-hour a day access to kiddie porn, you know. And people don’t write anymore, they blog; instead of talking, they text; no punctuation, no grammar. LOL this and LMFAO that. You know it just seems to me that it’s just a bunch of stupid people psuedo-communicating with a bunch of other stupid people in a proto-language that resembles more what cavemen used to speak than the king’s English.'

Henry: 'Yet you're part of the problem, blogging with the best of them...'

Hank: 'Hence, my self-loathing.'

Hank Moody in Californication.

Voluntary blindness

You know what it's like and I feel as if I'm suffering from a condition better known as voluntary blindness. But my heart, oh my heart... it needs glasses.

Dead

For years I've watched two people in their own little story. Standing next to her, reassuring her everything would be okay when it came to him. Fight after fight, witnessing what in my eyes was and still is true love. Standing on the side line only to find myself in the same position. Wrapped up in the same lies.

Snow fell by surprise and I fell asleep in it. But I did see death coming. Right here, right now. Dead.

The ice is getting thinner

There are times when life calls out for a change. A transition. Like the seasons. Our spring was wonderful, but summer is over now and we missed out on autumn. And now all of a sudden, it's cold, so cold that everything is freezing over. Our love fell asleep, and the snow took it by surprise. But if you fall asleep in the snow, you don't feel death coming.
