I've been thinking a good dissertation topic would be the difference between a Tom Petty solo album and a Heartbreakers album. Because I sure can't tell. Not that I'm complaining. I've been listening to Tom's new album Highway Companion and digging it. Especially this song "Damaged By Love." And "Down South" with these opening lines:
Headed back down south
Gonna see my daddy's mistress
Gonna buy back her forgiveness
Gonna pay off every witness
Well, that's some kind of perfect and I'm instantly charmed, won.

Can I be your mama?
You'll have to submit an application.
Excited and calm at the same time; decided, at last.
Poetically tragic.
Too much. Too little. Too soon.
Settling...not as a house does, but knowing I won't get what I want.
In confusion and correspondences: writing to the rediscovered love of my life, who is a happily married woman also happy to write to me, while also married to a very good woman I should love more.
I was dumped by my one-legged boyfriend 5 days after I graduated from my MFA program.
Seriously, and I know this is more than 1 sentence, but WTF?
Snaked off the bar stool; beat with the pool cue.
