With everyone going out of town (or at least, a lot of us are) for university, I can’t help but wonder how many of my friends I’ll never see again (for at least the next four to five years anyway). What happens when couples need to separate physically for something like this? I’ve gotten some suggestions about what to do in anticipation of separation depression, but most of them involve “Dump her!” (Keith, you silly man). I plan on doing no such thing of course. I’ll be coming back every few weeks or so and keeping in close contact through other means (IM? Phone? Snail mail?) with Amy so I am quite at ease with having to leave her behind for Madame Waterloo (if only temporarily).
Regardless, this next song goes out to you, you who knoweth who you are. Enjoy!

Well, I looked at her face and then I knew she changed.
And my heart turned black and then the sky turned gray.
So I sat in my room for 27 days;
No she never called, I had something to say.
I don’t know much, and I don’t know how…
Why would she put me through such torture?
I would have given my life for her.
She was the one that knocked me over.
Now I’m alone sitting on the corner.
Well, I heard she’s great and her new boyfriend’s lame.
Well, she can go to Hell–I’ll never be the same.
And these open wounds will heal with time they say.
And my heart turned black and then the sky turned gray.
