"The High Heat"
She wants to die
Like people do
Shower clicking
Summer was sickening
In that room
High in the heat
A white-hot beehive
Well she was doomed
She has a wing
To offer the sky
She couldn't stop sinking
She thought she wasn�t thinking
She wanted to die
She wants to live
Like people do
She feels like giving
It all away
All to you

I'm not planning on killing myself. Don't f-ing freak.
These are just the words to a song I especially like from my one and only real present received this year. THE WILCO BOOK (2004) complete with cd with 12 songs not included on other records.
With that said, on to the post:
I am a terribly unlucky person. My sister says I have edgy energy, which leads to me stirring up unwanted problems in the universe. She also says that bad karma comes back faster with me...almost instantaneously, in fact. This is apparently a good thing, as it means I won't have bad karma festering inside giving me cancer later down the road. (ironically, I am currently listening to New Dimentions...The God Theory...)
I just think I have bad luck.
Besides the obvious troubles in the love department, I will run down the most recent events this year in the exciting life and times of C.
Christmas Eve
While driving to my parents, a rock flew out of no where, shattering my windshield.
December 19
My life insurance policy and YMCA membership both cancelled on my birthday.
Thanksgiving weekend
Dr. Sarah, music teacher at Univeristy Elementary School took her life. 3 previous students also died of suicide or drug overdoses over the weekend.
Friday, 5p.m. July something
While house/pet-sitting for my sister, I managed to lock myself out of her house (with special old-style locks) in only a bikini bathing suit. No phone, no shoes....
June, 2006
My ex and I decided to put our cat Reuben down. My neighbor, Glenn, died a day later. Wow.
May 19, 2006
Divorce was final.
March 2006
While waiting at a stoplight, a woman talking on her cell phone crashed into the back of my car, shattered the back windshield and bent the back frame. My daughter was in the car.
There was a computer crash in there somwhere (I lost everything on the hard drive)but I think it was December, 2005.
OK. So, 2007 HAS to be better than this, right?

The Flaming Lips At War With Mystics
Beck The Information
