My legs weren't up to much today but I needed to get out and do something. There are no junk miles at this point in my life. It always accomplishes something. In this case, it's lard expenditure.

More troublingly, today's iThink is a reflection of my thoughts at receiving an email today that all but stated that I had not been a good friend - a statement that bothers me, not because of how I felt about it, but that one of my actions had led to that perception. Juliana Hatfield writes about damaged relationships, so perhaps it was apropos today.

And if I had
A dime for every chance
I want something so bad
And if I saved
For a hundred years
I still wouldnt have
Enough to buy the perfect gift
For somebody who don't exist
Do I want too much?
Would perfection be enough?
And if it came to me
Would it be what I really need?
Do I want too much?
You piss me off
But not a lot
I forget to forget(forgive?)
Why can't I see
Your qualities
That are not negative
You're so sweet to me
So why?
Do I want too much?
Would perfection be enough?
And if it came to me
Would it be what I really need?
Do I want too much?
And if you are
Ever to be pleased
By what it is to recieve
You must learn to be
Much happier than me
Yeah I want too much
Perfection never is enough
And when it comes to me
I think of something else to need
You give me everything
But it's not enough
