flirting arrives in the mail
i'm trying to think of what to write. today my copy of the movie flirting came in the mail, i finally ordered it off of amazon. i watched it for the second time today, the first time was on the television. i was engrossed in the love story then, i know now not why i cherished it so. i still find humor and a comforting line or two throughout the film, but it is not nearly as beautiful as i remember. i guess there's a first time for everything, and it trumps all others.
i still find the main character, noah taylor, completely adorable. i still identify embarassingly to their trials and worries. i am their age, with regards to men. they experiment and think that in their experimenting they are promiscuous. truly they have not crossed many lines, though their society says so. their leaders, the teachers and principal, hover over them with little mercy, and they are left dreaming and reaching for connection to happiness and each other. they rebel; their rebellion is minor yet satisfactory for their purposes. they are...growing up, we shall say.
i feel i have missed this part of my adolescence. i think i mind.
but what is there to do? how do you recover lost time? am i really so odd? is this a valid 'predicament'? what is running through my neighbor's mind when i see him in the laundry room?
are men and women really so different? i would like to think not.
as i reread this entry, i realize that much like blind lemon jefferson, i am writing encoded lyrics. these words are pure drivel, incomprehensible, and no one i know might understand them. marcus, quite perhaps, but he hasn't seen the movie. it's a chick flick anyway.
some Gods don't want you to have any fun. do i worship an unfun God? is that what i've decided to do? or am i no different than the next girl, and blind to this fact?
i have evidence to the contrary, proof of my abnormality, understand. perhaps i'm idealistic in thinking my history typical. i don't particularly know what i'm reaching for at this point, other than a career in journalism. a smile, maybe. smiles are always worth reaching for.
