Life is like a box of Crayons...

"Life is like a box of crayons. Most people are the 8-color boxes, but what you’re

really looking for are the 64-color boxes with the sharpeners on the back. I fancy

myself to be a 64-color box, though I’ve got a few missing. It’s ok though, because

I’ve got some more vibrant colors like periwinkle at my disposal. I have a bit of a problem though in that I can only meet the 8-color boxes. Does anyone else have that problem? I mean there are so many different colors of life, of feeling, of articulation.. So when I meet someone who’s an 8-color type.. I’m like, “hey girl, magenta!” and she’s like, “oh, you mean purple!” and she goes off on her purple thing, and I’m like, “no – I want magenta!”
