(I almost started another entry with "It's funny")

Tim Harrington of Les Savy Fav is singing:

Obligations
Are so passé
Obligations
Are so passé
Obligations
Cast away

J t'aime

kdotdammit remarked yesterday that, whereas she has always given me a hard time for being perpetually ironic, in this format it is she who comes off as the ironic one and me as the sincere one.

I'll have to do a better job of integrating my personalities in the future.

I will say, though, as the rush of beer and memory subsides, that -- isn't this obvious to everyone? -- the irony cage is always already a protective shell.

Thank god for music -- it's Vivaldi's Concerto in C major for 2 Trumpets now, since I'm in shuffle mode -- so I can have a space to unfold the extent of my feeling.

I do love you with painful intensity, my dear, even if I find it easier to quote a quirky indie rocker who attended Rhode Island School of Design, singing in French, than to just , you know, like, say it.
