So this is kind of different: I came out to my car yesterday morning and an envelope was under my windshield.
This is what was written on the outside of the envelope:
I recognized the perfect script of the (woman’s?) handwriting; so I wasn’t suprized to find a new In/Out list inside the envelope. But I’m not sure why I received it, I haven’t given any signal asking for one, and the headaches haven’t been particularly bad lately. Here it is anyway.
This is what was written on the outside of the envelope:
Somebody told us what we wanted to be,
it was candy for the mind.
It was fantasy and fantasy galore.
It was everything we ever wanted,
It was that and so much more.
Damn it all,
Damn everything
but the circus.
Wonder who said that?

Uh oh. Looks like someone's got a new nemesis. *cough* [dan slowly takes a few steps backwards]...
So Discretion is both in and out? Well, at least Promiscuity is back in. Isn't Earnest Pretention an oxymoron?
