quotes I love from high fidelity

"She didn't make me miserable, or anxious, or ill at ease. You know, it sounds boring, but it wasn't. It wasn't spectacular either. It was just good. But really good."
"I can see now I never really committed to Laura. I always had one foot out the door, and that prevented me from doing a lot of things, like thinking about my future and... I guess it made more sense to commit to nothing, keep my options open. And that's suicide. By tiny, tiny increments."

"I'm not the smartest guy in the world, but I'm certainly not the dumbest. I mean, I've read books"

"You are as abandoned and noisy as any character in a porn film, Laura. You are Ian's plaything, responding to his touch with shrieks of orgasmic delight. No woman in the history of the world is having better sex than sex you are having with Ian... in my head."

"I was jealous of other men in her design department. I became convinced that she was going to leave me for one of them. Then she left me for one of them."

"I miss her smell, and the way she tastes. It's a mystery of human chemistry and I don't understand it, some people, as far as their senses are concerned, just feel like home."

"I accept and understand that you can't be good at everything. And I am tragically unskilled in some very important areas. But sex is different; knowing that a successor is better in bed is impossible to take, and I don't know why"

"I can see everything once it's already happened--I'm very good at the past. It's the present I can't understand."

"So what am I going to do now, just keep jumping from rock to rock for the rest of my life, until there aren’t any more rocks left? Should I bolt everytime I get that feeling in my gut when I meet someone new? I’ve been thinking with my gut since I was 14 years old, and frankly speaking, I’ve come to the conclusion that my guts have shit for brains."

I'm so reluctant to go back to any way I've been before. Even though I'm quite sure that some of my older ritualistic behaviors are far superior to the ones I currently use. What I keep trying to remember is: was I really less happy then or am I just unhappy all the time? Is there no right answer and this is just the way I am? Damned if I do, damned if I don't or is there some correct way to handle these matters... not really sure. Sorry for being vague, but I gave this site to more people than originally intended so I don't want to be specific. Funny given that no one probably actually reads this. Other than the girls I made out with apparently.

rambling...but the best I've written in a while

oh baby you're a classic
the classics never go out
but go out with me
my lies are few, far and microscopic

I need another shot
never stopped at one
one more chance
there's no secret plot

Just trust me
I'm not worth it
with a toll like yours who else
is trying to pay the fee
(who else)

how about layaway
any payment plan
I'll get you if you
if you agree to stay

Only one shot
I won't be a blank
you be the sun
keeping my world hot

Just trust me
I'm not worth it
with a toll like yours who else
is trying to pay the fee
the toll is deranged
but at least I'm
searching for some change
if that's what it takes

you're too far away
drifting on another plate
I don't know about you
but I don't feel safe

I miss being between your thighs
I miss your touch
I miss you
cutting me down to size
I miss you, miss you

that's two separate shit rants...no idea what the cause...but I like the first one.

felt like writing

You push for cheers
I sneer and blurt something insincere
You don't deserve it
only been sober for five minutes

It's an achievement
your views are bent if you want my two cents
the kind who wants a ticker tape
for not waking up late

You're mean the world, but aren't worth my time
it'll all be fine--try to remember the boat times
I know it was more of an exposure
but you'll be fine mein fuhrer


that's all I have...I felt like writing something but really had nothing to say. So I decided to voice my disgust about someone who doesn't exist.
