Sometimes I feel like my best friends are total strangers
Sometimes I feel like total strangers don't want to be my friend
Sometimes I feel like music's telling me to leave
Sometimes I feel like leaving music out of it
Sometimes I like to pretend like I know what the word love is supposed to be
Sometimes I pretend to have to care about her
She's elusive, but only because I'm more elusive than her
She's confident because she wants to be there for me
Flowing like a river; cool and remote like a dancing girl
Burning me with fire; hot in proximity like a flame
The poet and the pendulum sway with each other;
they know how to swing
from one life
to another.

Choosing De Cree
Hi!
Oh, it's -you- again. Well, I'm doing well on the junk food front, if you must know.
Good, I was hoping you'd say that.
Yeah, it's pretty hard though, because there's so much junk food everywhere I go.
Just remember that you have no idea where that stuff comes from or what that stuff is, really. Just because it tastes good doesn't mean it should go in your mouth.
I hate corporate interests that intervene with regular human life in order to profit off of desperate-
Ooookay, we're going to steer clear of that idea for now; your aim is to find your own sense of happiness, remember?
Right, right. As Lux would say, "Stay positive! ^_^".
Since you're actively trying to respect the decrees, I'll give you a choice for today as a present. Sleep or activity?
Oh, let's go for sleep. I've been plagued with sleep troubles since my teenage years. I'm kind of going to miss my erratic sleep patterns though... you meet the strangest and most interesting people at the dead hours of the night. It's the dark-after, after all, where human nature gets decomposed like my compost bin on Monday nights.
Right-o.
Spiritual decree #3: Go to bed before 1 am, every night of the week. Your aim is 11 pm, but this will take a while given your present love affair with going to bed at, shall we say, ungodly hours.
Am I right in assuming that this decree is flexible; for example, if I'm out partying at a friend's place?
Partying? Your goal is to be happy, not to have fun!
WHAT?
Just kidding! Of course this one's flexible, but it's really important to respect it as much as possible. There are very few things more essential to mammals than sleep. Sanity starts with good sleep patterns and you know that.
Yeah, I knew that. Sometimes it's fun to feel a little wonky! I suppose I am guilty of being a little -too- wonky sometimes...
Je sais, mon amour.
Whoa whoa whoa, let's not get into pet names now. Also, why are you in red now?
Because I love you.
ಠ_ಠ
Okay! See you next time!
Enthusiasm, thou art a bitch.
Watch your language!
This is MY blog you know!

Musical Decree
Hi. It's me again.
Oh god, what now.
Did you manage not to each junk food since last night?
I... I don't know... It all happened so fast...
What do you mean?
It was 3 am and I was practically starving... and that box of cheerios, with the cute bee and little crispy round things... I just couldn't stop myself.
Stop yourself from...?
OKAY OKAY I ADMIT MY DEED! I ATE A WHOLE BOWL OF DELICIOUS HONEY NUT CHEERIOS WITH A COPIOUS AMOUNT OF 3.25% MILK LATE LAST NIGHT BECAUSE I COULDN'T SLEEP.
Anything else you care to confess?
This is starting to get creepy. I had a few bites of chocolate Haagen-Dazs and a bit of sorbet, but otherwise I'm clean today, I swear!
Good job!
Gee.. thanks?
Are you ready for your next ordinance?
Why do you have to act so formal? Yes I'm ready. I think I did okay on the first decree. You kind of remind me of someone from the fifth Harry Potter book, though...
I'm much nicer than that evil witch.
Yeah, and a little more sentient, too...
Spiritual decree #2: Play your djembe at least a few times per week at first, then augment to at least 10 minutes per day during daylight.
Hmm, I think I could do that. Do tell me, Guardian Angel, Spiritual Protector, whatever... What is the importance of this decree?
Well, music has massive healing powers, especially the drum because it's probably one of the most ancient instruments known to man. It fuels your soul in ways that no amount of Justin Bieber babies ever will, because it acts just like an external heartbeat to guide you. I'm not asking you to go to drum circles and solo (which would be super cool and you know it!), but just hearing a rhythm daily can bring a happy cadence to your life.
Solid. Sooo... should I start right now?
No. At this hour, you'll wake up the old lady next door to you that you've been using as an excuse not to practice. During the daytime and with spring approaching, there's no better time to commit to improving your musical talents, and you know it!
I think your enthusiasm is rubbing off on me. I hate it when that happens...
Cheer up buttercup!
