For Good.
My friend Hood finally put her blog back up and I am greatful... And a bit addicted.
I thought that I was going insane. I thought that I was perhaps the only person on the face of the planet that had anxiety attacks over my future flyng out of control and into oblivion. I thought I was the only person who was stressed out about what I am doing vs. what I need to be doing, but nope, Hood is too and I feel comforted.
I guess I'm not that far off the mark with this adult bullshit. I'm just in a state of limbo.
My relationship with Hood reminds me of the relationship between Glinda and Elphaba in Wicked. I don't know who is the outcast and who is the social princess, I think we're both a bit of each character, but the fundamental characteristics are just too similar. Maybe it's just because both Glinda and Elphaba were two strong women in their own ways and I would like to think that both Hood and I own those same qualities.
I think Katie and I need to find a rad karoke bar somewhere in the middle of Canada and sing, "For Good" duet styles. I missed out on singing talents when we were in highschool - I blame that on the crap ass district board of education and their dislike of anything musical.
I'm not trying to be gay over Hood, I'm just sayin' she was good times and now that I have the opportunity to read her life, I'm beginning to realise that Katie and I aren't so different and I like that because I'm an egotistical art fag that thinks no one understands me (to put it frankly).
So now I just have to convince her to move back to Niagara so that we can hangout (I'm selfish like that).
"I've heard it said that people come into our lives for a reason,
Bringing something we must learn.
And we are lead to those, who help us most to grow,
If we let them and we help them in return.
Well I don't know if I believe that's true,
But I know I'm who I am today, because I knew you.
Like a comet pulled from orbit, as it passes a sun
Like a stream that meets a bolder, half way through the wood.
Who can say if I've been changed for the better?
Because I knew you...
I have been changed for good."
Yeah. I'm gay for Hood.

oh god I love you.
and I totally fucking *heart* For Good too. I blast that shit out at the top of my lungs in the shower.
One day maybe Jon & I will live in wine country, and then we'll have you over for tea and drunken conversations. Both of which are equally good.
I am so fucking tired right now. This doesn't make any sense. But I will say that I feel all gooey inside from reading this, it filled my eyes with sunshine.
