is the grass always greener on the other side of the fence?

of course not! it entirely depends on which side of the fence you happen to be sitting on! i have a terrible tendency to believe what i want to believe (i guess i'm not alone). i dont so much kid myself as con myself. i stare into the mirror until, by some process of wishful thinking, i have distorted the reflection. i embellish my identity and when the cold light of reason threatens to burst the bubble, i rapidly look the other way.

distorted, i am.
