vol. 49

You can't navigate me. I might do mean things, and I might hurt you, and I might run away without your permission, and you might hate me forever, and I know that that scares the living shit out of you 'cause you know I'm the only real thing that you have...

I have this planet of regret sitting on my shoulders...
-- Reality Bites (as said by Ethan Hawke...)

so i'm sitting around today waiting for the festivities to begin...

just got done mowing the grass and sat down to blow a couple minutes -- and found reality bites on... it's truly difficult for me to fathom the fact that this movie came out 15 years ago... i haven't seen this in i don't know how many years and it just really took me back... 15 freaking years...

anyway...

there's a scene in this that is one of my all time favorites -- all i could find was this youtube clip -- and i'm not really sure that it will make sense to you if you haven't seen the movie -- but it just killed me today when i watched the movie again... ethan hawke's character has disappeared and winona ryder doesn't know what's going on... and this is what ensues... i truly don't know that a song has ever been placed better, even though the cut the song down from its original, which can be found here -- my brothers will understand why this video absolutely kills me -- actually, that's a good idea for another posting...

and seriously, what has happened to winona ryder since her shoplifting arrest????
