My Old Addiction

My old addiction
Changed the wiring in my brain
So that when it turns the switches
Then I am not the same

So like the flowers toward the sun
I will follow
Stretch myself out thin
Like there’s a part of me that’s already buried
That sends me out into this window

-- kd lang, My Old Addiction

Not surprisingly, I wasn't able to do a single thing which was on my list. So what if I fell asleep? So what if I went out midnight and stayed out until 4AM hunting for blueberry cheesecake? So what if I ended up drinking just one bottle of San Mig Ice and going home right away because I had to piss since Mini Stop doesn't have a restroom? So what if the universe decrees that No Friend Of Podi's Will Go Out With Him This Saturday Night? So what if the week was capitalized with a total let down and because I'm such a sucker for cosmic signs and karma, my whole week is totally ruined before it has even begun? SO WHAT?!

Sigh.

So what do I really want to do? Pile my room with books, and I'd rather read till my lights go out. If my body can't be made to run away, my mind and my heart will do. Two out of three ain't bad.
