She says she wants to live in a movie
I say I want someone else to stand behind me
And write it all down
'Cause I can't be bothered doing it myself
And I don't want the responsibility of proving its importance

Not Quite There

Trying to climb out of my downswing; played decently today for the most part. Flopping the underset in 3 big hands didn't help the cause much, though. Here's the worst of them:
