well, that was interesting

status check - disappointed
background ambiance - silence

ok, let me clarify. for the record, if you will. i admit wholeheartedly that i was checking out michael as he stood over at the table. but i wasn't doing so with the thoughts his grandmother must have thought were going through my mind. i was noticing how much better he's looking now - and how relieved and happy i was to see him happy. it certainly did not warrant telling him about said checkout and pointing me out in my small group of friends!

that bit of hilarious birthday embarrassment aside, let me say this.

averi, i'm done. have a nice career.

it's a disenchanting moment
when you can finally say
it's just another sad example
of the basic rock & roll cliche
