mix.

Sorry to have two mix'tape' related posts in a row, but, hello, I'm Summer, nice to meet you. I was telling Ryan last night about how sometimes when a situation gets to a point where I'm still thinking about it all the time but I've said everything there is to say and talking doesn't seem to help anymore etcetera etcetera, I make a mix - for myself - about it, just so I can continue to excavate my heart parts and 'let it out'. It's like writing a letter you'll never send, or talking into a tape recorder in your bathroom, or taking pretty pictures of yourself for someone who will never see them, or kissing a pillow, or punching a wall. It's like that. You should try it, it's good medicine.
