...Hm...

So I heard an Alanis Morisette song called "Unsent" for the first time. And it made me think back on people in my own past, and I found myself putting their names in place of the names in her song. So I thought I'd post the lyrics with the names(and a couple other words) changed here....just to get it out of my system without posting them somewhere they could be seen by people who shouldn't see them.....

"Dear [Anthony], I like you a lot. I realize you're [still not over] a relationship with someone right now, and I respect that. I would like you to know that if you're ever [interested] in the future and you want to come visit me in California, I would be open to spending time with you and finding out how old you were when you wrote your first song.

Dear [Justin], I liked you too much. I used to be attracted to boys who would lie to me and think solely about themselves, and you were plenty self-destructive for my taste. At the time, I used to say the more tragic, the better. The truth is, whenever I think of the early 90's, your face comes up with a vengeance like it was yesterday.

Dear [Peter], I love you muchly. You've been nothing but open-hearted and emotionally available and supportive and nurturing and consummately there for me. I kept drawing you in and pushing you away. I remember how beautiful it was to fall asleep on your couch and cry in front of you for the first time. You were the best platform from which to jump beyond myself. What was wrong with me?

Dear [Billy], You rocked my world. You had a charismatic way about you with the women, and you got me seriously thinking about spirituality, and you wouldn't let me get away with kicking my own ass. But I could never really feel relaxed and looked out for around you though, and that stopped us from going any further than we did. And it's kinda too bad, because we could've had much more fun.

Dear [Alan], We learned so much. I realize we won't be able to talk for some time, and I understand that, as I do you. The long-distance thing was the hardest, and we did as well as we could. We were together during a very tumultuous time in our lives. I will always have your back and be curious about you, about your career, about your whereabouts."
