She's just like everyone else.

 With four houses.

But I gue$$ that'$ not the point.

What kind of education are the college athletes who go jumping from school to school through the transfer portal really getting?

Guess we'll just have to wait and see.

 How do you think Ken Burns is going to shoehorn Bob Dylan into The American Revolution?

Because it wasn't necessarily before.

 Would the Mona Lisa have become as popular and famous if it had never been stolen?

Take a breath.

What if Juliet had woken up before Romeo arrived at the tomb?

Would she have waited for him?

Or gone mad as she feared?

Would waking first have saved their lives?

Or would she have just killed herself first?

And if she waited, and they both survived, would it have been considered a happy ending despite the deaths that came before it?

No matter who wins,

 A bully will.

Weird.

Apparently, I last listened to The Darkest Skies Are The Brightest exactly one year ago today.

Neat.

But weird.

And a little frustrating when I stopped listening partway through and came back to a screen that looked like I'd already listened to the whole album until I noticed the year on the Last Played column.

It's mine now.

 The sign above the table of items donated by the university library to the city library book sale said the items could not be donated back to the university library. They're fools to think I would ever give back the print of woolly mammoths in a foresty swamp that I bought for $1.50. It's mine now. They are never getting it back, and if they decide it was a mistake to sell it that's not my problem.

But it's all I seem to be.

 I wish I wasn't expendable.

You Never Know

 When your last goodbye is the last goodbye.

Nobody won.

The country lost,

because we have to choose between those two clowns,

and I wouldn't trust either of them to drive the little car.

My mind is wandering.

 Leave it alone, it'll come home.
