And So I Said To The Little Devil On My Shoulder

If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all. He didn't listen, but it felt good saying it, ya know? I wish he had shut up. It's so much easier to avoid temptation than it is to resist it.

Which is why I have like... 0 female friends. They just aren't worth the hassle. I've found the woman in my life. For a feminine perspective that isn't hers, I have a mother (and a sister who hasn't forgiven me for leaving for college quite yet). There just isn't much reason to have a female friend. I have Maria of course... but she's engaged, and I called her daughter. Not much of a threat there, lol. (Also, Maria, while definitely a girl, lacks a really feminine point of view [she plays video games for Christ's sake]).

It's hard for a lot of people to settle down, ya know? They think "what am I missing out on?" A whole lot of drama, that's what. I found the spark, and I know that what's here is so much better than any silly fling. I just wish people would understand it's not so much "natural" for people to be runnin' around having sex and hot make-outz. That's just an excuse. You do that to learn that it isn't what you want. So move on. Don't stay in that place. Better yet? Avoid it entirely.

Thank God someone knew that.
