I do foolish things when I’m blue when I’m sad and missing you I do foolish things like dancing all night foolish things drinking everything in sight foolish things shopping til I drop foolish things somehow I cannot stop doing foolish things when I’m blue when I’m sad and missing you I do foolish things watching ‘parks & rec’ all night foolish things drinking coffee until daylight foolish things dragging friends on crazy romps foolish things somehow I cannot stop doing foolish things when I’m blue when I’m sad and missing you I do foolish things acting like spring breakers foolish things herpy-dirping strangers foolish things acting like some whack-job foolish things but somehow I cannot stop doing foolish things when I’m blue when I’m sad and missing you I do foolish things making badong decisions foolish things I’m in an awkweird position foolish things I’ve begun precrastinating foolish things a change is indicated so come back soon cause when you do there are foolish things I want to do with you foolish things foolish things crazy foolish things foolish things . . . slang badong = bad / wrong herpy-dirping = saying silly or outragious things to strangers for effect. awkweird = combination of "awkward" and "weird". precrastinating = procrastinating before procrastinating.

I learned lots of new words here today Anais, would I use any of them, probably all except herpy-dirping, sounds a bit (awkweird) but hell it’s a fun write, and brings back memories of youthful exuberance, I enjoyed this perfectly unique piece, cheers David
