"threat" in place of "thread". "house" in place of "hours". "angels" instead of "angles". "underwise" instead of "otherwise". (i'm beneath wisdom?) "bed" instead of "bad". even the accidents have something to tell you.

"I though it was from the 80s" on you_learn_something_new. I'm from the 80s; I can't think of any deeper meaning, thought. Though? Thought? Through?

"maybe some days just seem long before they are." i meant to type "because", but "before" came out, and i didn't notice until it was too late to fix. it's true, though. we make up our minds about some days before they've had the chance to show us what they're going to be.

i typed "image of an experience" just now instead of "image or an experience". but maybe that's right. i *have* always been a pretty visual person, even if i struggle at times to spin pictures into words that are worthy of them.
