Favorite Quote:
If neurotic is wanting two mutually exclusive things at one and the same time, then I&#039;m neurotic as hell. I&#039;ll be flying back and forth between one mutually exclusive thing and another for the rest of my days.<br /> - Sylvia Plath

I wish you wouldn't go away. Is there anything I could do or say to convince you to stay? I fear that your heart will leave this continent once the pilots raise the landing gear. So I grovel to the midnight stars, praying that they spell out our names in the morning sky where you are.

Just me being a clingy girlfriend. I won't miss him as much as I'll be anxious that he'll fall out of love with me when he's gone for three weeks over the summer.
