I think i'll go home and mull this over

Today was pretty solid. I went to Portland with Elyse and we talked and looked at art in the Pearl district and such, man are people talented. I had a lot of fun and certainly will be going again, and to more galleries, we only hit like two or three. Then we ate at this Pita place, its super good and they make the biggest pita's ever. Finally we went to Starbucks and sketched people. It was strange, I felt kind of lame because I'm really not very good at all, and to sketch people in public felt like I was a big poser or something.
Then I went to Anneliese's and spent 6 hours there. Thats a long time, funny thing is only maybe 3 were with her. She left for an hour or so, and I stayed and made Valentine cards, then she came home and went to bed after an hour. So I stayed with Willy, her brother, and Jeff and we all hung out. That was a good time. Jeff and I figured out we're almost exact equals in arm wrestling, both arms.
I not sure where things stand with Becky. I feel bad about saying I don't want to be around her. But last night I wasn't happy with things, tonight, there was nothing to base except a tired hello. So pretty much I have no clue. I'm content with their dog, she's nice to me and likes to cuddle.
Another new girl talked to me on AIM. Its interesting talking to people you don't know, because of just that. You don't have to fit into your mold that's been created by all of your friends. I can be completely new and act like myself without thoughts about my stature as the nice guy. I certainly keep the title, but its refreshing to know there aren't any expectations.

I've been listening to the shins:
Gold teeth and a curse for this town were all in my mouth.
Only, i don't know how they got out, dear.
Turn me back into the pet that i was when we met.
I was happier then with no mind-set.

And if you'd 'a took to me like
A gull takes to the wind.
Well, i'd 'a jumped from my tree
And i'd a danced like the king of the eyesores
And the rest of our lives would 'a fared well.

New slang when you notice the stripes, the dirt in your fries.
Hope it's right when you die, old and bony.
Dawn breaks like a bull through the hall,
Never should have called
But my head's to the wall and i'm lonely.

And if you'd 'a took to me like
A gull takes to the wind.
Well, i'd 'a jumped from my tree
And i'd a danced like the kind of the eyesores
And the rest of our lives would 'a fared well.

God speed all the bakers at dawn may they all cut their thumbs,
And bleed into their buns 'till they melt away.

I'm looking in on the good life i might be doomed never to find.
Without a trust or flaming fields am i too dumb to refine?
And if you'd 'a took to me like
Well i'd a danced like the queen of the eyesores
And the rest of our lives would 'a fared well.
