It's true - you can't go back.

To what? Most stuff changes over time and all that we're usually left with are somewhat unreliable memories. Hint: never rewatch a movie or TV show you liked as a kid, you'll only disappoint yourself.

Absofuckinglylutely true, and experienced.

Why the hell would you want to?

[vicar.livejournal.com]

Because I had fun and was happy, and I miss that.

[mreraser.livejournal.com]

There's better.

[vicar.livejournal.com]

I've heard that, and believe you are experiencing such, but I am not nor have I for some time. Just sayin.

Rose-Coloured Glasses.

Plus context.

Moments exist and time doesn't take them away from you. That does not mean you have to continually relive them.

But alcohol was

I didn't give context, but it still seems that up and down beats no up at all, so I don't think the rose-colored glasses apply in this case. And trust me, no rose-colored glasses were used in making this post.

Well it ain't your time for "up" and although the downs seem bad... look at it this way:

- Yesterday a man randomly got attacked and decapitated on a bus while texting his girlfriend.
- My friend had to leave the Pemberton festival early cause a member of her family got randomly shot in the face and eventually died in hospital at the age of 20.

Your life may not be entirely zealous right now. You may figure you are just pointlessly floating around. You may desire the rush of the highs and the hope of a new skirt. But comparatively life is going pretty even keel for you right now and it is almost insulting to complain.

Just hold on my friend, things WILL change no matter how much you need to reiterate that they haven't.

I know this, but I'm just a bit tired right now. Actually, this is more the j-curve mood - things are getting better. Right now. I just feel...bleah. No biggie.

I'm actually going out so damn much and hanging out that I'm kinda burnt out.

[bentrazor.livejournal.com]

Did you go black?

[vicar.livejournal.com]

Prehensile!

[mels-hell.livejournal.com]

Nice. With your six little monosyllabic words, you're going to keep me up for the rest of the night, thinking about how to disprove that, as well as about where I'd go if I could go back... not that you're wrong, or that it's disprovable...

lol... thanks.

[vicar.livejournal.com]

Well it's vague enough to easily prove or dis depending on what you pick.

[turbogrrl.livejournal.com]

of course you can. there is still ice cream. and chocolate.

Yum with a side-car

[vicar.livejournal.com]

Both? Is that legal?

[turbogrrl.livejournal.com]

it is, just not in texas.

[peregrin8.livejournal.com]

You can, you just have to look over your shoulder so you don't hit anything.

BEEP BEEP BEPP

Hey wait, are you calling me fat?

[peregrin8.livejournal.com]

Hahaha!

Yes. I am calling you fat. Based entirely on BMI, presumably.

[joanarkham.livejournal.com]

Lucky for me, I've already got back.

Wait, what?

"No goth can step into the same nightclub twice, for the second time it is not the same club and he is not the same goth."

[vicar.livejournal.com]

I wish that were true and I don't. Nice observation though, thanks. :)

[translucent-eye.livejournal.com]

The hell you can't!

Apparently you haven't unlocked the mysteries to the space time continuum yet!

[vicar.livejournal.com]

That rule against fucking your doppelganger bugs me.

[spunkmunky.livejournal.com]

Maybe you need a De Lorean time machine...

[vicar.livejournal.com]

Yes, but it would be nice to take my body back as well. I could fix it up much better with the knowledge I have now if I had a 20 year old's body. And other stuff...oh yes, other stuff. Mmm.

[spunkmunky.livejournal.com]

Nah, you'd still be a hard headed 20 year old who just wants to drink $5 pitchers and considers dancing for a few hours on Thursday night your exercise routine. Or, maybe your 20 year old J was a little less hard headed than 20 year old Spunkmunky.

[dnaspydir.livejournal.com]

So what, you can't go forward either.

You only exist in the moment, everything else is either a desire, or a memory.

[vicar.livejournal.com]

Unless you get alzheimer's in which case you are stuck with a fuzzy present and a desire for memory?
