Comment:

I've been in an esoteric mood for the past few days. I've grown hopelessly infatuated with this great, sweet, beautiful, damn near perfect-for-me girl at work over the past year (she doesn't know how I feel)...thing is I'm in a serious relationship right now, and though we have our problems, we still care about each other a hell of a lot. I got plenty of flaws, but I could never hurt the feelings of the woman I'm currently dating; even if I WANTED to break up with her, I don't think I could, just because I'm so paranoid about hurting other people. And I know, this inspires the classic argument "well you're only hurting her more by staying with her if you don't care about her", or "with a lie hanging over you guys", but I still DO love her, and while I could personally handle breaking up with her, I could (and most likely will) just as easily maintain our relationship without letting this situation effect either of us. I'll forget about/manage to deal with unresolved feelings for Lilly, the girl at work, in due time assuming I don't actually do something about it (and knowing me, I probably won't), but right now I can't get her off my mind, and it's kinda made me equal parts sad and excited but with fatalistic overtones. Anyway, I've somehow been left with a lot of free time today and I just don't seem to know what to do with myself, no doubt as a result of my mixed emotions at the moment (I'm also hung up on what a failure I've been at life up to this point). So being all antsy, vaguely sorrowful, and uncertain, I thought I should try making a mix. It may look a little (or a lot) random, but all the songs are connected in some way in my mind at least. Hope it's not too much of an eyesore

Take heart (and follow your heart). The creativity fed by your emotions is what makes the best mixes. No matter how the "scene" plays out, this mix will stay with you.

The mix is an interesting mix. I would like to hear how this situation played out - especially since I find a lot of similarities between your situation and mine. E-mail me at tidyparty@yahoo.com if you get the chance.
