Never leave that till tomorrow, which you can do today

We can't pretend we haven't been told
We've all heard the proverbs
.. heard the philosophers
.. heard our grandparents warning us about wasted time
.. heard the damn poets urging us to 'seize the day'

Still, sometimes we have to see for ourselves
.. we have to make our own mistakes
.. we have to learn our own lessons
.. we have to sweep today's possibility under tomorrow's rug

Until we can't anymore
Until we finally understand for ourselves what Benjamin Franklin meant:

That knowing is better than wondering
That waking is better than sleeping
.. and that even the biggest failure
.. even the worst most intractable mistake
Beats the hell out of never trying
-- Grey's Anatomy Season One, Episode Six

That was an EXCELLENT episode.

There are so many gorgeous [wo]men out there.

But the thing is this:

After a while, you just wanna be with the one that makes you laugh...

How true.

... and

nel: ok, I'm coming now. I just have to take a shower and -
mindy: so... you'll be here in an hour and a half?
...
nel: I'm so rushing to prove you wrong. I'll be there in 45 minutes... I'm timing it
mindy: so am I

4 minutes down... now I'm leaving...
