Autocorrection, Autopilot Device Sometimes, I wish I had an autocorrection device. The way this one would work is, whenever one (I, for example) started not being nice to someone one (or I, for example) loves, one (again, I perhaps) would go into some sort of autocorrection mode. Something like an autopilot, which causes one to be nice to that other person one loves, then to withdraw for the time being, if necessary. I'd love that. Then, if I had that device, I could choose to never be not nice to someone I love...... Friday, May 16, 2003

I Love Avril Lavigne  Downloading ever more Avril videos this morning... Wow, her version of "Knockin On Heaven's Door" (for the children victims of war.) She's so fantastic. Avril's one of the artists who proves, music is as good as it's ever been. Sure, there was some great music in the 20's, some classic music in the 60's, the renaissance of reggae in the 70's... I could prove, however, that there is *always* some great music coming out. No reason not to look, any time..... I had no idea Avril was so popular, when I first got into her, a few months back (I think that popularity has grown ever more since.) This is so unusual. Usually, no one's heard of most stuff I listen to (still the case by and large, if you checked my car CD changer...) The cool thing about following someone who turns out so popular, for once, is all the things you can find! I've got more Avril videos than anyone else, by far. Each live performance is different. She does some cool moves too. Little hops (like at the Grammys), things like that. I just watched her latest performance on Letterman. Just before she starts, she hops up onto the drummer's stand real quick, just for fun. She's great! I mean, I've done stuff like that, in real life. I have a feeling, she does too.

Flirting Doing one of my good deeds yesterday afternoon, taking my Dad to an appointment, I never expected anything fun to happen. It did. For the second time in the last week, a Lolita-ish flirtation happened. Of course, that's all it was, flirtation. It was kind of cool though. I'd noticed the girl being dropped off about the same time as we arrived. I was thinking, "What's *she* doing here?" I haven't gone to the doctor myself for years, so it's hard to imagine a mid-teenager going. Sure, I noticed her in the reception area, dark hair and cute. We went to sit down, and she sat diagonally across from me, in a nearly empty plush waiting area. Naturally, I'm checking her out a little, in her jeans - me in mine. To my surprise, she is checking me out too. Not a "stop looking at me, now!" look, at all. More of a curiosity. I was feeling some excellent vibes there..... Kind of like at the softball game, Saturday night. I'm not going to go into that one. I probably sound weird enough already. If I should get involved with such a girl - she will be of age, at least. Of course. :-) |
