What's amazing is when you can feel your life going somewhere. Like, your life just figured out how to get good. Like, that second.


Sometimes it seems like we're all living in some kind of prison. And the crime is how much we hate ourselves. 


It's good to get really dressed up once in a while. And admit the truth: that when you really look closely? People are so strange and so complicated that they're actually... beautiful. 


Possibly even me.

My So-Called Life may be, per capita, the most quotable show of all time.  Here are some of my favorites from it's tragically short run in the 90's.

If you ever find yourself wondering where Angela, Rayanne, Rickie, Brian and Jordan Catalano ended up, look no further.

People are always saying you should be yourself, like yourself is this definite thing, like a toaster. Like you know what it is even. But every so often I'll have, like, a moment, where just being myself in my life right where I am is, like, enough. 


Hatred can become like food, it gives you this energy that you can like, live off of. 




The worst feeling is suddenly realizing that you don't measure up. And that, in the past, when you thought you did, you were a fool. 


Sometimes someone says something really small and it just fits into this empty place in your heart.

Tuesday Loseday: Dear Angela

Dear Angela,

I know in the past I've caused you pain and I'm sorry. And I'll always be sorry 'till the day I die.

And I hate this pen I'm holding because I should be holding you. I hate this paper under my hand because it isn't you. I even hate this letter because it's not the whole truth. Because the whole truth is so much more than a letter can even say.

If you want to hate me, go ahead. If you want to burn this letter, do it. You could burn the whole world down. You could tell me to go to hell; I'd go, if you wanted me to. And I'd send you a letter from there.

Sincerely,
Jordan Catalano



PS. the entire cast of my so-called life is now officially in the pack. yes, even that annoying woman that Angela's dad almost had an affair with. all of them.
