So, January started off pretty good on the daily posting scale with like, what, 12 consecutive posts? Then my hard drive crashed. As soon as I got set up on another computer, that hard drive crashed. Oi. So I finally bit the bullet and bought a brand new one. Ugh. At least January ended up being better than December. But I'm back now. We'll see how February goes. Here's a new one, in progress:

Second Thoughts

I guess it’s the little things that signal
that it never could have worked:
I like crunchy peanut butter,
and she likes bulimia.
I like Swiss cheese,
and she likes breaking lamps.
I like getting up early,
and she hears voices.

I guess I buy all that,
although I thought we’d work well:
She was interested in me,
and I love talking about myself.
She loved drinking too much wine
and I love scoring.
She kept seashells on her headboard
and I’m not afraid of drowning.
She loved mythology
and I love being left alone.
She likes staying in,
and I’m unhealthily jealous.
She had a webcam,
and I like having low-res titties on my desktop.
