Let Me Tell You About My Family.

It's So Much Easier To Be Cynical.

I Think Splash Made People Realize That I Was Still Alive, And I Think I Inspired A Lot Of People. I Have People Coming Up To Me All The Time In The Airport Saying, "hey, You Inspired Me To Learn How To Swim!" "you Inspired Me To Start Moving Around More." "you Inspired Me To Start Doing More For Myself." So That Was Good. But Mostly I Took It Because Nobody Had Given Me A Job. And You Know What Really Matters In Life, Right?

It Might Be One Thing To Think About Putting On A Dress, But When You're Actually Putting On A Dress, It's A Weird Thing, Because You're Going, "huh. I'm Putting On A Dress. Do I Leave My Underwear On? Do I Get Some Other Underwear? Is There Something Special I Should Wear?" All That Dumb Stuff. I'd Never Had Any Interest In Putting On My Mom's Clothes, Except To Think, "well, They Are Nice Clothes..."

My Mom Was A Garage Sale Person, Save Money. Come On In To The Garage Sale, You Might Find A Shirt. She'd Get In That Garage Sale And Point Stuff Out To You. There's A Good Fork For A Nickel. Yeah, That's Beautiful. It's A Little High. If It Were Three Cents I'd Snap It Up.

God And The Universe Said To Me One Day, "you're Only Going To Get What's Good For You." That's Kind Of How I Try To Look At Things. Isn't That True, When You Look Back At Things? "ooh, I'm Glad I Didn't Get That!" You Get More Philosophical When You Get Older, With The More Life Experiences You Have. But I Don't Have Any Bad Feelings Towards Anybody That Was Ever Involved In Any Of That Stuff, Because I Don't Think That People Usually Set Out To Hurt You. I Think That Hurt Is All Manufactured By Yourself And Your Expectations.
