12/06/2001 Entry: "Plug time's up!"

'Mr. Squirrel,' I said, 'I'm sorry,
But the problem can't be solved
If there's no one here to help, and no one to get involved
Always look to the positive and never drop your head
For the water will engulf us if we do not dare to tread
So let's Tread Water.'
--De La Soul, "Tread Water," Three Feet High and Rising.

Whoops...did I just blow my Goth Cred?

AHMAHGAWD, I love you even more now!

do you know that I wrote that passage in everybody's yearbook during my senior year? it really confused the swedish foreign exchange student.

'treadwater' is still the salutation i use when emailing a certain friend from high school.

okay, i got a bit excited over your post.

i'm calm again.

...and in fact I thought of you when I posted this--your post a while back when you quoted "Me Myself and I" made me pull out the CD and make MP3s for my playlist.
