Thought of the day:
A guest blog entry from the lovely and talented Ms. Ani DiFranco!
Asking Too Much - "I want somebody who sees the pointlessness, and still keeps their purpose in mind, I want somebody who has a tortured soul some of the time, I want somebody who will either put out for me, or put me out of misery, or maybe just put it all to words and make me go, you know, I never heard it put that way, make me go, what did you just say!?
I want somebody who can hold my interest, hold it and never let it fall, someone who can flatten me with a kiss that hits like a fist, or a sentence that stops me, like a brick wall, if you hear me talking, listen to what I'm not saying, if you hear me playing guitar, listen to what I'm not playing, and don't ask me to put words, to all the spaces between notes.
Don't ask me to put words, to all the silences I wrote, in fact, if you have to ask, forget it, do and you'll regret it, I'm tired of being the interesting one, I'm tired of having fun for two, just lay yourself on the line, and I might lay myself down by you, but don't sit behind your eyes, and wait for me to surprise you, I want somebody who can make me scream until it's funny, give me a run for my money, I want someone who can twist me up in knots, tell me, for the woman who has everything, what have you got?, I want someone who's not afraid of me, or anyone else, in other words I want someone, who is not afraid of themselves, do you think I'm asking too much?"
Word to that. I'm not angry today at all, just definately feelin' these words. I am not an excessively angry girl either, I am just tired of being the boyfriend in relationships--Guys: girls like guys who can take the initiative! DO IT!
Ani concert in a week and a half!
