Happy 17th Pretty. Odd.!!!!

happy 17th pretty. odd.!!!!

when i say i've literally grown up with this album... my older cousin always said it was "mine" since i was born only a few months after it released and would always stop crying when she babysat me if she put it on.

i don't talk to my cousin anymore. she's married and has two kids. i didn't go to her wedding, have never met her chldren. but i'll always love her for raising me on such a beautiful and life-changing piece of art.

as my own 17th birthday approaches, i can't help but get sentimental over this album.
