jimminy cricket can shove it

standing on the balcony tonight i looked up at the stars--or what few stars you can see through the washout of the east coast's night sky. it reminded me of standing on that balcony with terry a couple of months ago, as we froze our asses off and watched what was left of a meteor shower. taking a cue from disney and romantic lore, i quickly closed my eyes and wished upon the second or third falling star i'd ever seen in my life. i never mentioned it (you know, your wish won't come true if you share it), but i wished that i'd be with terry forever. walt disney didn't know what he was talking about.
