"It's spring fever ... And when you've got it, you want - oh, you don't quite know what it is you do want, but it just fairly makes your heart ache, you want it so!"

- Mark Twain

I need a girlfriend. I’ve tried so hard to be happy being single, but damn it, I want to be loved by someone I love. I hate these one-sided messes I always get myself into. I have all this love and it’s got nowhere to go!

Uh oh. I think I have a crush on a girl on my fencing team. Help.

So I just watched "Better Than Chocolate" for the first time. Oh, my. Judy and Frances made me cry. You know that scene at the end? I couldn't help it.

"Judy? I love you."

Awwwwwww.

*tear*

Anyone else seen this? Am I being overly sentimental and romantic, or was that a really, really good movie?

"Nothing says oops like a wall of flames."

I was looking at a calendar yesterday and I realized: it's been over a year since I came out to my best friend. It doesn't seem that long. I remember how scared I was to tell her, and how scared I was that she'd be creeped out, and that it would change our relationship. Looking back, I'd never have guessed it would go so well. We're even closer now than we were then, even though she moved away for college and I don't see her nearly enough anymore.

I will not tolerate intolerance! She screams at those
Who brandish their dulled blades in religious fervor,
Clanging and sparking, roaring dominance.
The gentle she hits from behind, tumbling one by one,
Falling like feathers.
Wheeling around, radiating power.
The belligerent she fights, fire with fire, scorching already callused skin.

Help, I have the hiccups. They are loud. They are annoying. They have been here for two hours now. Help, I'm going crazy.
