So Long, My Almost Lover, My Back is Turned On You

No response from Goose. He checks his email every five minutes thanks to his iPhone, so I have no reason to believe he hasn't received it. I'm disappointed, but I'm not surprised. I'm glad I established his position before I spent a bunch of money I don't have to meet up with him in Las Vegas. The singer A Fine Frenzy has summarized my feelings better than I ever could:

"Goodbye, my almost lover
Goodbye, my hopeless dream
I'm trying not to think about you
Can't you just let me be?
So long, my luckless romance
My back is turned on you
Should've known you'd bring me heartache
Almost lovers always do

I cannot go to the ocean
I cannot drive the streets at night
I cannot wake up in the morning
Without you on my mind
So you're gone and I'm haunted
And I bet you are just fine

Did I make it that
Easy to walk right in and out
Of my life?"
