Perfect Day
'You made me forget myself. I thought I was someone else, someone good.' - Lou Reed, Perfect Day
I have the cd single here of this song. It came out at Christmas 1997.
That's ten years ago. 10 years! It seems unbelievable.
Where did it go? What have I been doing?
My oldest boy is turning 8. Another 10 years and he'll be 18 and I'll be 44, which is ten years younger than my mom is now.
My daughter is 15, which is three years younger than I was when I had her.
My ex already passed 40 and is heading toward middle-age.
There's a card on postsecret today that says 'I will be twenty in March and I really feel like I running out of time.'
Dude, I have news for you.
You are.
Yikes I feel sorry for someone who feels they are running out of time at 20!
I don't see life like that at all. I don;t know how much time I have, so I don't know if I am running out or not, or where I am on that line, and to be honest I don;t want to know, and nor do I care.
Life is hear and now and you can do whatever you want to with it.
Jane, I think the point I was trying to make is that we're all running out and we have to make the most of it. I look back and I think wow, where did it go? And I'm determined never to think that again!
