leftunspoken's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Pardon me dear, could you possibly put your tongue back in your mouth? We're all animals. You know that right? Medium-sized, mostly-hairless, incredibly-vulnerable animals. If I could change things, I'd give us retractable claws and really sharp expendable teeth at the very least. (Though wings would be awesome.) Back to my point. We're animals. Sweeping, full-body reactions to the smallest of senses. Perception and instinct and memory demanding body responses we can't control. I'm reminded of this when my mouth instantly waters or shivers run down my spine upon hearing certain words, certain sounds. I'm happily in my frontal lobe making nice logical decisions, then someone says the right word and I slide right back down my brain stem and begin to drool. Some words even make the insides of my cheeks ache. The words? I'm not telling. We can't have all of you turning me into a slobbering idiot. I'm quite good at that all by myself. Okay...maybe just a few examples for the purpose of better understanding: lickwet want You see? P.S. There was another entry earlier, but I don't know that it made any more sense than this one, so I wouldn't recommend it. 1:35 p.m. - May 28, 2003 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
