2005-03-09 04:34:08 ET Keith Urban sang to me this morning. He told me exactly how he felt. I think I'm over the moon with that proverbial cow...(or perhaps just in love with my own better half.) "Car door slams, it's been a long day at work I'm out on the freeway and I'm wondering if it's all worth The price that I pay, sometimes it doesn't seem fair I pull into the drive and you're standing there And you look at me And give me that come-here-baby smile It's all gonna be alright You take my hand And You pull me close and you hold me tight Chorus: It's the sweet love that you give to me That makes me believe we can make it through anything 'Cause when it all comes down And I'm feeling like I'll never last I just lean on you 'cause baby You're my better half They say behind every man is a good woman But I think that's a lie 'Cause when it comes to you I'd rather have you by my side You don't know how much I count on you to help me When I've given everything I got and I just feel like giving in And you look at me And give me that come-here-baby smile It's all gonna be alright You take my hand Yeah you pull me close and you hold me tight (REPEAT CHORUS) Well, you take my hand Yeah you pull me close and I understand It's the sweet love that you give to me That makes me believe that we can make it through anything Oh baby, it's the sweet love that you give to me That makes me believe we can make it through anything 'Cause when it all comes down And I'm feeling like I'll never last I just lean on you 'cause baby You're my better half Oh, oh baby you're my better half Ooh, hey baby you're my better half" |
Ah...right...that's why we do this... | |
2005-03-08 09:43:59 ET "We cannot live together We cannot live apart That`s the situation I`ve known it from the start" |
Cinderella said..."They can't stop me from dreaming..." | |
2005-03-02 09:26:29 ET What do _you_ dreeam about? I thought I was dreaming when I saw the picture, then I read the description. I think I'm in love. Now, how to get the money….. "Unique - classic - stately - palatial - cannot fully describe this three story seven bedroom five plus bath home bordering a golf course. Exquisite crown molding - French doors - wrap around portico - Veranda with dramatic columns - Home features three fireplaces - Hardwood floors -Library - Den with bar - Formal living room and dining room - Two spiral staircases - Heated in-ground pool - Central air - Detached garage and storage with four bedroom, one bath guest house - All this on 2.95 acres with a spring fed pond - Beautifully landscaped - This is a most unique property. PRICE FOR THIS MINI ESTATE…$725,000." I won't stop dreaming just because it makes you feel pressured. They're my dreams, dammit. Don't _you_ ever dream? Why won't you dream with me instead of shooting my dreams down all the time? Unless of course, you're afraid to dream?

At the museum | |
2005-02-25 04:48:15 ET At the museum of all things rare and beautiful, Behind the viewing glass, glinting inside the scintillation of compressed anthracite, winking its sleepy eye; mocking relentlessly, crouches a dream; woken from polarization. The shine and circle: a force as gravity Winking in the facets: a home, fidelity, a child. Family Honest, hard work, true monogamy and a pretty white picketed fence. Mayberry never saw it so good. One facet winks strength and another values. A particulary stubborn angle projects relgion, morals: A patriarchal family grounded in the faith. Held as Plato's ideal behind the viewing glass A reminder of what used to be Standing with face pressed to glass staring into facets and blinding light Diving into the carbon fills an empty place A woken dream relfected in my eyes; motionless on its velvet pedestal A contemplative hope for the future. |

2005-02-18 02:38:31 ET hrm...woke up nauseated. Probably not a good thing... Morning DJ's Rock my world. Today's lineup: 1.) Feel like a Number - Bob Seger "I take my card and I stand in line To make a buck I work overtime Dear sir letters keep coming in the mail I work my back till it’s racked with pain The boss can’t even recall my name I show up late and I’m docked It never fails I feel like just another Spoke in a great big wheel Like a tiny blade of grass In a great big field To workers I’m just another drone To ma bell I’m just another phone I’m just another statistic on a sheet To teachers I’m just another child To irs I’m just another file I’m just another consensus on the street Gonna cruise out of this city Head down to the sea Gonna shout out at the ocean Hey it’s me And I feel like a number Feel like a number Feel like a stranger A stranger in this land I feel like a number I’m not a number I’m not a number Dammit I’m a man I said I’m a man" 2.) Undercover Angel - Alan O'Day "Cryin' on my pillow, lonely in my bed Then I heard a voice beside me And she softly said "Wonder is your night light" "Magic is your dream" And as I held her She said, "See what I mean?" I said "Whaaaat?" She said "Ooo-ooo-ooo-wee" I said "All right!" She said "Love me, love me, love me" Undercover angel Midnight fantasy I never had a dream that made sweet love to me Undercover angel Answer to my prayer You made me know that there's a love for me out there (Somewhere) Yeah, somewhere Heavenly surrender, sweet afterglow Givin' up my heart to you Now, angel, don't go She said, "Go find the right one" "Love her and then" "When you look into her eyes" "You'll see me again" I said "Whaaaat?" She said "Ooo-ooo-ooo-wee" I said "All right!" She said "Love me, love me, love me" Undercover angel Midnight fantasy I never had a dream that made sweet love to me Undercover angel The answer to my prayer You made me know that there's a love for me out there (Somewhere) Oh, somewhere Now you know my story And girl, if it's right I'm gonna take you in my arms And love you tonight Underneath the covers The answer lies Im lookin' for my angel In your sweet lovin' eyes She said, "Whaaat?" I said, "Ooo-oo-oo-wee" She said, "All right!" I said, "Love me, love me, love me" Undercover angel Midnight fantasy I never had a dream that made sweet love to me Undercover angel Answer to my prayer I never had a dream that made sweet love to me Undercover angel Answer to my prayer" 3.) Roll on 18 Wheeler - Alabama "Roll on highway, roll on along Roll on Daddy 'til you get back home Roll on family, roll on crew Roll on Mamma like I ask'd ya to do And roll on 18-wheeler, roll on ROLL ON Well, it's Monday mornin' He kissin' Momma good-bye He's up and gone with the sun Daddy drives an 18-wheeler And he's off on a Midwest run And three sad faces gather 'round Momma They ask her when Daddy's comin' home Daddy drives an 18-wheeler And they sure miss him when he's gone (Ya, they do) Ah, but he calls them ev'ry night and tells 'em that he loves them He taught 'em this song to sing (REPEAT CHORUS) Well, it's Wednesday evenin' Momma's waiting by the phone It rings but it's not his voice Seems the highway patrol has found a jackknived rig in a snow bank in Illinois But the driver was missin' and the search had been abandoned cause the weather had everything stalled And they check'd all the houses and the local motels when they had some more news they'd call And she told them when they found him to tell him That she loved him and she hung up on the phone singin' (REPEAT CHORUS) Momma and the children will be waiting up all night long Thinking nothin' but the worst is comin' with the ringin' of the telephone Oh, but the Man upstairs was listenin' when Momma ask'd him to bring Daddy home And when the call came in it was Daddy on the other end askin' her if she had been singin' his song (Singin') Roll on highway, roll on along Roll on Daddy 'til you get back home Roll on family, roll on crew Roll on Momma like I ask'd ya to do And roll on 18-wheeler Roll on highway, roll on along Roll on Daddy 'til you get back home Roll on family, roll on crew Roll on Momma like I ask'd ya to do And roll on 18-wheeler, roll on"

still manic after all these years... | |
2005-02-16 02:37:41 ET Today is our 2 year aniv. Yeah us! Happy Aniv., Lover. This song makes me happy. I don't know if it's the beat or the lyrics or the melody or the fact that it's disgustingly true for me in a he says/she says kind of way, but it makes me smile... Accidentally In Love - "So she said what's the problem baby What's the problem I don't know Well maybe I'm in love (love) Think about it every time I think about it Can't stop thinking 'bout it How much longer will it take to cure this Just to cure it cause I can't ignore it if it's love (love) Makes me wanna turn around and face me but I don't know nothing 'bout love Come on, come on Turn a little faster Come on, come on The world will follow after Come on, come on Cause everybody's after love So I said I'm a snowball running Running down into the spring that's coming all this love Melting under blue skies Belting out sunlight Shimmering love Well baby I surrender To the strawberry ice cream Never ever end of all this love Well I didn't mean to do it But there's no escaping your love These lines of lightning Mean we're never alone, Never alone, no, no Come on, Come on Move a little closer Come on, Come on I want to hear you whisper Come on, Come on Settle down inside my love Come on, come on Jump a little higher Come on, come on If you feel a little lighter Come on, come on We were once Upon a time in love We're accidentally in love Accidentally in love (x7) Accidentally I'm In Love, I'm in Love, I'm in Love, I'm in Love, I'm in Love, I'm in Love, Accidentally (X 2) Come on, come on Spin a little tighter Come on, come on And the world's a little brighter Come on, come on Just get yourself inside her Love ...I'm in love" ~ Counting Crows |
too damn tired to try... | |
2005-02-15 02:37:23 ET Standing in a dark room screaming. The walls are closing in. Someone says: "Why curse the darkness when you can light a candle?" screw you. There isn't any oxygen either. I'm amazed there's enough space for me to breathe. Please don't break your promises. Please stop yelling at me and please, please, please don't hurt me. Let the cynical die a quiet, hopeless death just please stop yelling. There is no apathy, obviously I care. I'm out of solutions, I'm out of time, I'm out of things to try Three options weigh me down, each a burden, each an answer One unthinkable, One unattainable, one so scare and rare I'm standing in a dark room screaming and the walls are closing in. No one can save me. No one wants to save me. No one even knows I'm here. I've been sending out letters through cracks in the ceiling and floor. I've been shouting out cries for help and my voice is raw. My fingernails are bleeding from clawing at the walls. Sometimes quiet, sometimes loud, always pleading the screams and cries have gone unheard. Fallen on deaf ears others see but avert their eyes Where is the door leading out of this private hell? Just open it from the outside I can walk on through if someone would just shine a little light it's so damn dark in here. |

2005-01-31 02:42:30 ET Heh...how about that? "Okay I forgot about the trash I didn't trim the long hairs on my mustache I did buy you a ring I believe it was back in '93 Alright I admit it I forgot our anniversary But I did pick up the baby this morning at the nursery That ain't no big thing but it's gold star for me You get tired and disgusted with me When I can't be just what you want me to be I still love you and I try real hard I swear one day you'll have a brand new car I even asked the Lord to try to help me He looked down from heaven and said to tell you please Just be patient I'm a work in progress I'm sorry I got mad waiting in the truck It seemed like hours you getting all dressed up Just to go to Shoney's on a Wednesday night I read that book you gave me about Mars and Venus I think it's sinking in but probably need to reread it But I'm starting to see now what you've been saying is right You get tired and disgusted with me When I can't be just what you want me to be I still love you and I try real hard I swear one day you'll have a brand new car I even asked the Lord to try to help me He looked down from heaven and said to tell you please Just be patient I'm a work in progress I know you meant well when you bought me those clogs But my heels sure get hot down by the muffler on my HOG I'm sure they're stylish but I'll take my boots I try to do that healthy thing like you want me to do But that low fat, no fat's getting hard to CHEW Now I love your cooking honey But sometimes I need some real food You get tired and disgusted with me When I can't be just what you want me to be I still love you and I try real hard I swear one day you'll have a brand new car I even asked the Lord to try to help me He looked down from heaven and said to tell you please Just be patient I'm a work in progress Oh honey just be patient now I'm a work in progress" ~AJ |

It is never too late... | |
2005-01-20 09:42:11 ET Reminder to self: It is never too late to discipline the little twit who smart mouths his teacher. I am not here to be their friend. I am here to teach them and expand their minds. I will not let him get away with being a smart mouth. I will retake control, because I have too or I will lose my mind. Today was not a good day. On the upside, one of my kids made a punk rock penguin in art class. I cracked up laughing. It was too cute. Further happy thoughts: tomorrow is Friday. I like ice cream. If it doesn't snow, I'll end up in NYC at the Knitting Factory on Saturday with my man, some friends and a whole lot of the ska. (**sigh** I hope it doesn't snow.) Back to grading the midterms.......ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ. |

2005-01-17 09:12:06 ET Have decided that trust is not to be fucked with. "One night, a young boy was forced to climb out on the roof when his house caught on fire. From the ground, his father caled, 'jump! I'll catch you!' All the boy could see was fire and smoke. His father yelled again, 'Jump, son!' But the boy protested: 'Daddy, I can't see you.' The father shouted back: 'But I can see you.' Trust is vital for a wholesome relationship. When we say, 'I don't trust you,' we keep each other at a distance. We build walls, saying, 'That's far enough: don't come any closer.' Jesus came into a world of suspicious, reluctant, and cynical people. No trust. Every word was commented on; every action was criticized. What a difference when we say, 'I trust you.' Trust doesn't happen all at once. The deeper we grow. the more we reveal about ourselves. It's a comfort to have one person we can run to when it falls apart - we trust that their love will accept us and give us the room to cry, yell, and scream. They let us get it all aout and stick by us as we put our lives back together and go on living." - Rev. Joseph Sica. Think about it. Can you get naked with the people you say you trust? Just a thought. |
