Empty Headed

I'm not always "happy-go-lucky". Sometimes it feels like I never was. I know I can be, for extended periods; I can be friendly and warm, funny, goofy, a "people person". And I'm sure it shocks me more than it does the people around me when I revert to a darker self. I am, afterall, more self-aware than alot of people, because I'm not afraid to be intrigued at the duality I'm capable of. I've been pulling away from people since I got back. I've been taking my iPod to work, listening to music with my headphones on every chance I get. I've been craving solitude.

I've also been exploring the music of David Usher. His music is soothing and dark. If one looks past the pop hits of Morning Orbit, alot of his subsequent albums have a dulcid, tragic, Keats-like appeal. I just bought If God had Curves and I'm enjoying it alot.

I'm tired, and smiling mischieviously at my own jokes.

well I've never know you as happy-go-lucky and I suppose if suddenly, you became so, it would be quite creepy ;)

honestly, I don't believe that! I know you can be quite jovial but mostly thoughtful, quiet and intense.
