So I've got about 7,000 MP3 files on my computer and occasionally I like to put the whole mess on random play and see what happens. You know, just for shits and giggles. A song by Modest Mouse just came on (thanx Jess for turning me on!) called "Talking Shit About A Pretty Sunset". It mirrors my feelings well in regard to the constant flux of my opinions and beliefs.

"Oh noose tied myself in, tied myself too tight

Looking kind of anxious in your cross armed stance

Like a bad tempered prom queen at a homecoming dance

And I claim I'm not excited with my life any more

So I blame this town, this job, these friends

The truth is it's myself

And I'm trying to understand myself

and pinpoint where i am

By the time I get things figured out

I've changed the whole damn plan

Oh noose tied myself in, tied myself too tight

Talking shit about a pretty sunset

Blanketing opinions that i'll probably regret soon

I've changed my mind so much I cant even trust it

My mind changed me so much I cant even trust myself"
