"Any book not worth reading twice was not worth reading the first time." Oscar Wilde
"Thank God I'm pretty
The occasional free drink I never asked for
The occasional admission to a seedy little bar

I have to run and hide can't look behind me
Thank God I'm pretty"
Emilie Autumn, Thank God I'm Pretty
My favorite song by her.
Thank goodness I'm not pretty enough that this would happen to me.
