I would like some words, because my blog software spontaneously healed itself a few days ago and I'm itching to use it.

My words for you are: Gilbert & Sullivan (already mentioned, but I have to use them, because I love me some G&S), cataloging things, apple computers, cheesy sci-fi, Mason Jennings.

I would like some words, please!

Mine for you (with no pressure to post about them) are:
-UNC
-passion
-Chicago
-food
-photography

(Not that I don't think of music or roadtrips or sports or baseball or writing or whatever, but those were the first five.)

oh, man, you're easy: photography, drive-by truckers, duke basketball, the south, road trips. GO.

The way you talk about the South is hypnotizing and I've... never been. Never been east of Arizona, if you must know. But you make me want to.

I'd kill to be able to put my heartbreak on a page. I feel sometimes like I write silly, plotty shit (in lecture today I wrote a scene from a very strange story in my head where Patrick Stump's girlfriend turns out to be a former intergalatic dictator on the run) because I don't know myself well enough to write my own heartbreak. Do I have to actually experience heartbreak to expose it? Can I really write if I try to avoid living at almost all costs?

...this comment got away from me. Sorry about that.

the south is weirdly hypnotic in general; it's hard to leave once you've fallen in love. i can't imagine living anywhere else anymore, even if i sometimes wish i lived in a Real City instead of a university town. you should come visit the south. *nods firmly*

as far as writing heartbreak goes, well. it was cathartic for me -- i was grieving a whole lot of things at the time, and it was easier to grieve them in fictional terms for a while. but. i don't know. i like living. sometimes i even go out of my way to live as hard as i can, you know? so i don't really know the answer to that.
