(personally, i still want to go to shows sometimes--and stay in the back and be like "yah, they are cool, but i liked them when they were in modest mouse better" like the people i saw talking about burning airlines as opposed to jawbox, but stay home and cook spagetti, drink cheap wine, and have lots of great sex more often! maybe lots of great sex after a show and cheap wine! yah!) are you and joe gonna be shacked up in a little homosexual cottage of love? or will you be a hermit, sitting behind a glowing computer screen in a tiny room a mile below the earth's surface? (heh heh...i'm being obnoxious, i realize)...anyway...i think where people want to be in regards to other people is the most interesting...it doesn't matter to me what i'm doing with myself really as long as i'm happy and comfortable outside of work, and i'm sure others on this board feel the same way. but maybe it's just me. oh, i forgot the other outcome of liz's possible future...the drop-out-of-school-and-run-away-to-seattle one. if i get fed up with school, i'll go to seattle, get a job at starbucks, and make sure i hate it, and write novels and not venture out very much. though i'd have to take up smoking if i did this. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
