I Will Not Be Afraid of Women

I can't embed it, but I think this, one of my favourite songs, by one of my favourite artists, sort of describes what I can't put into words, and how I'm feeling right now, in the midst of various wanks. As Cool As I Am, by Dar Williams: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B4j5ms5f6hI

I want to put together a Dar zip, because she is amazing. If interested, let me know.

ETA: Also, this:


Because my computer knows my moods, and played this as the first song when I started up my player...

And another Dar song (my favourite) just because:


Which makes me want to write a slow, lazy bandom fic.

I'm not that petty, as cool as I am I thought you'd know this already...

Seriously, I ♥ Dar Williams SO much, especially the two songs you linked to. I first heard As Cool As I Am when I was about 16, and have loved it since then. \o/ (Also, Iowa breaks my heart...)

&you; I saw the first line of your response and just grinned so big.

Iowa does break my heart, but in the best way (which I've sort of detailed in the comments already, I'm not going to be boring and repeat myself over and over), but it fills me with hope, and a sort of contentment, too, to know there is someone else in the world who feels thinks in the same way as I do, when I've always felt so strange and set apart from others. I mean, now I have bandom for that, but back then, Dar seemed like the only one.

I also just sort of have a thing for songs that break my heart. I guess I'm a masochist like that...
