I'm doing strange things and thinking bad things. 8 year itch maybe? Not good, overall tho. I wish I could control myself better. But I do stupid things and say things that I shouldn't. Not when they end up hurting someone, even if they say it doesn't. But there's nothing worse than having this thing out there, and having it hang there, and nothing happening. And imagining if it did. Argh.
