Thanks. You&#8217;re awesome.<\/p>\n<p>I should be walking, airing out the musty smell of second-hand cigarettes my coat collects in the back room at work, but I am nervous of what I will find once I get past my first destination. I have a secondary plan, there is apparently a corset stitcher happening tonight at Andrew&#8217;s new apartment, but the primary is that for a reason. The scathing thing most close to the thin skin of my heart is the first thing I want to address. There is no turn back time, no peering ahead. I had a half argument about this earlier this week with a partially ex-lover. What&#8217;s real is what needs to be dealt with, and what&#8217;s now is all that we have to take chances with. What should be done should be done, regardless of imagined consequence. This is what I told him, irritation growing. I was falling in front of someone, hitting the ground hard with verbal feet that were suddenly fists curled in anticipation of the general unfairness of the world. Me, I surprised myself. I&#8217;m not used to admitting heat into myself. I usually keep everything I want very under control and very away from me. He said that I was intimidating. I would be surprised except that I&#8217;m beginning to get used to it.<\/p>\n<p>What happens when you begin to reject neglect in the face of everything you want?<br clear=\"all\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>janis won&#8217;t die Originally uploaded by Foxtongue.
