Listening to the postal service, and me always saying im fine reminds me of that lyric "your perfect verse is just a lie you tell yourself to help you get by"

I went and saw this broadway play tonight called "The Normal Heart" that was just incredible... made me cry uncontrollably, and also dealt with some issues that I think are pertinent today. Even though it was written in the 80's, it deals with AIDS, and gay marriage, and the issues of casual sex among the young people of New York City... the fact that gay marriage was just legalized Friday night, and there's been gay pride parades all weekend, made it connect even more with me. At one point the boyfriend says "I don't think a man isn't meant to love. I think men learn not to love.
Monday 7:54 EDIT: I just wanted to add also that some people will argue that gay men are more promiscuous and have more sex- in a culture that wouldnt support their quest for the institute of marriage, what kind of relationships were they supposed to have?

I had the strongest compulsion to just go out and be crazy last night.
