that's a lie.
her Levi's just talkin' bout love. She
wishes she could save the world, like
she was supergirl. Lyssa, with you: I
can let my hair down. I can say
anything, crazy, I know you'll catch
me right before I hit the ground.
Nothin' but a T-shirt on (wink wink!),
I never felt so beautiful, Lyssa as I
do now, now that I'm with you. With
you, WITH you, with you-uu. [breathy
moans] Y tambien...MIRA CABIN FEVER!
SOLA!
was when, in a rather awkward series
of events, Lyssa caught me with my
pants down, a can of Mountain Dew in
one hand, a gerbil-wheel in the other.
While I hastily zipped up and tried to
let her know the truth behind the
situation she refused to listen.
Instead she slapped me with a
restraining order. And two lovely
children. And that, little Jane and
Bobby-Sue, is how babies are made.
overwhelming honesty: this is the Lyssa
encounter. Sometimes I won't see Lyssa
for a week and I'll have to seek her out
so I can be reminded what's what in this
crazy world. She's likely the most
honest person I know, which will suit
her well. Her writing, when I get to see
it, bears the same honesty, but on a
poetic level... she has that rare
ability to bring you closer to things
you knew but were never aware of. And
for that reason, you seek out that slap.
upstairs neighbor. She's shared my
lasagna, whiskey & hot chocolate, and
3am frantic sex life conversations.
And I know EVERYONE she knows. Plus,
her taste in music is IMPECCABLE.
Hooray for Postal Service and Martin
Sexton! Her only flaw is: she needs
to come downstairs to visit more
often! :) Thanks, Lyssa, for being a
wonderful friend.
Perhaps she will match mine for me one
day. I want to wear my skirt with you
downtown, I've said this before. You
really ought to put a picture up on
friendster or I'll do it for you.

sensibility. She challenges the
conventional wisdom. Lyssa may come in
only one flavor, but she is still
better than tic tacs. She looks really
hot in sundresses.
