I'm having one of those hyperconnected days, where everything leads to everything else by a string of closer random association than usual. This means I find lots of extra meaning in song lyrics.

In this case (and perhaps three of my readers will get this), I heard a really sappy duet at Arby's today, with the line, "You were always there to be my Destiny."

Suddenly I was back at Mortal Kombat on big screen with

annissag, with "Every man has his own Destiny" booming out over us, and we were torn between shaking with laughter and twitching with fear. (We went to school with Destiny. Not making this up.)

This level of hyperconnected goes with high emotion. In the car I realized Bittersweet Symphony sounded exactly like Dream (the one related to the other Destiny), and got a catch in my throat as they pounded out,

I'm a million different people from one day to the next,
I can't change my mold, no no no no no...

Over and over.

Here's to changing my mold.
