a sense of direction
I've been unintentionally listening to Into It. Over It.'s "Intersections" album. I've been having weird chest pains the past couple days. Earlier, my mom dropped off some Vicks and an inhaler,...

open diary, open heart
It looks like the majority of users on this site have flocked here with the permanent shutdown of OpenDiary. At least we have somewhere else to go? I came to OpenDiary in the summer of 2007, fr...
