I enjoyed looking at him, but I never had any fantasies of meeting him. Never any fantasies of marrying. I enjoyed listening to this voice, and it was the first time I paid attention to lyrics.

Over time, I found out other music, listen to it more, better lyrics, but I was still paying attention to the voice, the lyrics of others. Over time, I decided if I can't date the singer, being chubby, awkward, and shy, I was going to be the singer.

It did not register much when he died. Like it was an old friend I lost touch with, and realizing I can never get in touch. I am not sure what to say now. Thank you, Mr. Hutchence.

Often in cartoons, there is some punchline of "Don't take drugs, but take your Ritalin." I am not sure whether it is to criticize drug therapy or how people talk about drugs (never mind people get addicted to prescription drugs as well as illict drugs). I do know, a more honest, objective way of talking about drugs is need for a child with/out ADD, taking or not taking Ritalin. Some drugs' risks and side effects are more than its benefits, and vice versa. Tendencies toward self-medication has to be warned against, and some objectivity about what pharmeutical companies and what the child observes reached. I had in my head a whole monologue about it, telling a small child I knew who also had ADD.

Today, I contact three new people I met through IM and mail, and it is an odd experience learning a new person's quirks and beliefs, dreams and wit. I have heard of New Relationship Energy as applied to love relationships, but friendships? I could get addicted to it, the rest of the time not as sharp and mind-opening as the first time I talked.
