Losing My Religion

Life is bigger
It’s bigger than you
And you are not me
The lengths that I will go to
The distance in your eyes
Oh no I’ve said too much
I set it up

That’s me in the corner
That’s me in the spotlight
Losing my religion
Trying to keep up with you
And I don’t know if I can do it
Oh no I’ve said too much
I haven’t said enough
I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try

Every whisper
Of every waking hour I’m
Choosing my confessions
Trying to keep an eye on you
Like a hurt lost and blinded fool
Oh no I’ve said too much
I set it up

Consider this
The hint of the century
Consider this
The slip that brought me
To my knees failed
What if all these fantasies
Come flailing around
Now I’ve said too much
I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try

But that was just a dream
That was just a dream
~*~"Losing my Religion" R.E.M.

In honor of Anthony Rapp, whose awesomeness only continues to increase in every waking moment. He's doing a book signing in Oak Park on February 8th! I'm going with Jaime and Molly... so excited. He's going to read from his book, sign stuff, and sing a couple songs from RENT. I'm sure it will be another wonderful night of memories with Anthony.

Not too much going on. 3 day weekend. ART opened last night. Counting down the days until I get to go see Anthony... and until the DVD comes out, and I go see the show, and Jaime and I *hopefully* go to NY for the 10th anniversary concert. We've found out how the lotto works, so there is hope for us yet!

My dvd Open House came yesterday. It's quite a crazy musical with Anthony Rapp. The song Fantabulous has been stuck in my head all fucking day and it's getting slightly annoying. But whatever.

Zanna, Don't! has not arrived yet. Now I will have to wait until Tuesday because there is no mail tomorrow because it will be Sunday and no mail Monday because it is MLKJ day. Yay for no school Boo for no mail. Though postal workers deserve days off too. They are people just like the rest of us.

A quote: "Why is it that, as a culture, we are more comfortable with two men holding guns than holding hands?" Earnest Gaines

Ponder that. I now leave you to your evening. I am off to stretch. No one is home so I can dance with the music turned up.

Love to all cause love is good.
