When it's the worst in you that's bringing you down.
When the better person is another person, a distant person, despite being a person you know.

When you can't let go.

The best kind of comfort is given by those who recognise the worst in you and love you all the same.

Perhaps I was just learning to appreciate how we're all the sum of many parts, or ( Read more... )

"The top line is 20/20 vision. Your current glasses actually allow you to read better than that."

I went to see VNV Nation live at the Carling Academy, Islington, and now I can't listen to their music (especially Chrome) without wanting to jump around again.
