life reminders for the memory-impaired.

images of broken light.

Words are flowing out like
endless rain into a paper cup.
They slither while they pass.
They make their way across the universe.


Fuck.

I hate [love] watching videos of the 60s-80s, cause it really does make me so sad. Really. You might not understand, thinking about The Beatles enough can bring me to tears. It sounds too over-dramatic and such, I know- but it just gets me so upset. I was watching KC & The Sunshine Band's "Get Down Tonight" on Youtube, and the clothing and the colors and everything; the whole vibe- I knew that was where I wanted to be. Not here.
Not now.
If you've ever read/seen Harry Potter, you know there's that mirror that tells you what you want most, and I've known for at least five years now that what I'd see would definitely be either myself finding true love, or myself some-when else other than the 2000s. Probably jamming with The Beatles.
Because I'm a hopeless romantic.
& a hopeless dreaming hippie, who loves neon and bell bottoms and other groovy tacky things.

I'm so tired of everything. I feel so sick to my stomach. Sickened by all that surrounds me.
You may not believe me, but these videos make me so sad...

There's something you didn't know about me, Calvin;
Reading about/listening to/watching The Beatles can make me cry, some days.


That's The Way I Like It - KC & The Sunshine Band
^I've been dancing all night. :D
Though you probably can't imagine it, I know.
