I never write this blog with the idea that anyone actually is listening but my computer. But I suppose that's how cyberspace works. You put it out there and it's there. This blog is that silent listener for me. It's my horrendously underpaid psychiatrist.

Our Life Is Not a Movie or Maybe


This song, "Our Life Is Not a Movie or Maybe" by Okkervil River is a bit of an oldie but still a goodie. I think I have some emotional associations with this song too. But the reason I post it is not that.

Although I am a drama teacher, I hate any actual drama in my life. I've sure had my fair share of it despite trying to avoid it though. I'd say a majority of my life is pretty drama free but if you look at my 20's in particular, on the whole I think they would play like a bad movie script: lots of ups and downs, trials, love and lost love, hopes and failures, adventure and everyday dullness. I'm not sure what kind of movie it might be. Maybe some terrible romantic comedy where the girl ends up alone in the end? Maybe it's just far from over.
