Laid

This bed is on fire
With passionate love
The neighbours complain about the noises above
But she only comes when she's on top

My therapist said not to see you no more
She said you're like a disease without any cure
She said I'm so obsessed that I'm becoming a bore, oh no
Ah, you think you're so pretty

Caught your hand inside the till
Slammed your fingers in the door
Fought with kitchen knives and skewers
Dressed me up in womens clothes
Messed around with gender roles
Dye my eyes and call me pretty

Moved out of the house, so you moved next door
I locked you out, you cut a hole in the wall
I found you sleeping next to me, I thought I was alone
You're driving me crazy, when are you coming home

30 Minutes???

That is all that Barry can spare for this' historic' meeting of the mindless (this applies to Skippy and Barry only)? What can possibly be hashed out in 30 -45 minutes? I don't even know why Crowley is doing this; I mean, I DO, but he is the one who is owed an apology, he is the one who's good name was completely denigrated by not only the Skipster and Screw 'em all Deval, but by none other than the President himself(!!!!)....Considering that this non-story has been front and center for how long now, mainly due to Obama's unnecessary inclusion to it , I would think that Barry could spare some more time ; but I guess he'll be too busy devising more ways that he can totally destroy this wonderful country of ours....

Oh, and RE: Cadillac Deval- just how many times were you 'profiled' at Milton Academy??? And just how DID you find your way to Milton in the first place?? Hmmm.......

'Take time to make time,
make time to be there.' - Little River Band

MmmmHmmm...'tis true.


Pure Prairie League

Amy

I can see why you think you belong to me
I never tried to make you think, or let you see one thing for yourself
But now your off with someone else and I'm alone
You see I thought that I might keep you for my own

Amy what you wanna do?
I think I could stay with you
For a while, maybe longer if I do

Don't you think the time is right for us to find
All the things we thought weren't proper could be right in time
And can you see
Which way we should turn together or alone
I can never see whats right or what is wrong
(will it take too long to see)

Amy what you wanna do?
I think I could stay with you
For a while, maybe longer if I do

(Acoustic solo)

Well now
Amy what you wanna do?
I think I could stay with you
For a while, maybe longer if I do

Now it's come to what you want you've had your way
And all the things you thought before just faded into gray
And can you see
That I don't know if it's you or if it's me
If it's one of us I'm sure we'll both will see
Won't you look at me and tell me

Amy what you wanna do?
I think I could stay with you
For a while, maybe longer
Longer if I do

Yeah now
Amy what you wanna do?
I think I could stay with you
For a while, maybe longer if I do

Fallin' in and out of love with you
Fallin' in and out of love
with you
Don't know what I'm gonna do, I'd keep
Fallin' in and out of love
With you

Talk about screwing up lyrics!!

In the following, I used to think that Kim Carnes sang, "She'll adhese you, just to please you, haul the bathtub just to please you" WTF was I thinking???? Anyways, here's the real deal...
Bette Davis Eyes- Kim Carnes 1981

Her hair is Harlow gold,
Her lips sweet surprise
Her hands are never cold
She's got Bette Davis eyes
She'll turn her music on
You won't have to think twice
She's pure as New York snow
She got Bette Davis eyes

And she'll tease you
She'll unease you
All the better just to please you
She's precocious
And she knows just what it
Takes to make a pro blush
She got Greta Garbo Stand off sighs,
She's got Bette Davis eyes

She'll let you take her home
It whets her appetite
She'll lay you on her throne
She got Bette Davis eyes
She'll take a tumble on you
Roll you like you were dice
Until you come out blue
She's got Bette Davis eyes

She'll expose you
When she snows you
Off your feet with the crumbs she throws you
She's ferocious
And she knows just what it
Takes to make a pro blush
All the boys Think she's a spy,
She's got Bette Davis eyes

And she'll tease you
She'll unease you
All the better just to please you
She's precocious
And she knows just what it
Takes to make a pro blush
All the boys Think she's a spy,
She's got Bette Davis eyes

She'll tease you
She'll unease you
Just to please you
She's got Bette Davis eyes

She'll expose you
When she snows you

Can you imagine...

going to your doctor and asking for a prescription for 'Pristiq' , and hey, why not (if you're female, of course)ask for a prescription for 'Yaz!' to help with your PMMD, or whatever the latest female ailment is?? Cripe, who in the hell THINKS of these names?? Pristiq, for depression?? WTF is a Pristiq? WTF is it supposed to mean?! And Yaz? Is that supposed to somehow make a middle-ager like myself seem cooler because I am treating my monthly nasties with a prescription that has a young, fresh, kicky sounding name? Maybe I should start wearing glittery eyeshadow too, hmm?
*DISCLAIMER*
There is no particular reason for the above rant, and NO, I am not in need of a double dose of Yaz!.... I was just watching FoxNews and that wacked out commercial for Pristiq came on, and it got me to thinking, is all. If you have somehow missed this fine example of advertising genius, click on the link below, and convince me that the wind-up doll in the ad does not evoke memories of some old Twilight Zone episodes. G'won, I dare ya.....

This is from an email I received from Bank of America.....or should I say a bad facsimile of. Why so suspicious, you ask? Well, my guard shot up immediately as I have never banked with Bank of America(and never will), and we have all heard of these scam emails, haven't we? You know, the ones that say falsities as this one does, in the hopes that some poor shlub, either do to innocent ignorance or just flat out stupidity, will click on the link and BAM-O! their computer and perhaps much much more is compromised. Sick bastards, the r-tards that pull shit like this. Along with the unadulterated anger that I feel towards them, I guess that pity should be employed as well, seeing as these LOSERS have such pathetic, vacuous lives that they need to prey on innocent people.

Oh, and the errors? I have taken the liberty to highlight them, though I trust that there is no need for explanation, as they speak for themselves. Guards up!!

Confessions.......


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vx_04GrOjrs

~ I LOVE the movie Grease( the original, not that gay-ass Grease II-ick!!) especially the number 'Greased Lightning'. Yeah, they were all in their thirties when they made it, which made them all light years away from high schoolers, but who cares?? It's a terrific movie, with a bitchin' soundtrack to boot. No apologies here!

~ I still cross my fingers, you know, for good luck, or to help hasten the process of something postitive happening .....bet some of you do, too. ;)
~ When my kids were just wee ones, I got into the habit of leaving the light that sits on the other side of the bed on, so that if they needed me in the middle of the night, their way would be well lit. I, to this day, still need that light on- I swear, I don't sleep nearly as deeply if the light is off! The kids...HA!!! they are well passed the age of needing a well lit path to Mom in the dark hours.
~ why I lower my IQ to pay attention to this drivel, IDK....but I am finding myself feeling sorry for Kate, you know, Kate of the John and Kate plus Eight Kate fame? I mean, I know marriages/relationships fall apart, and I know that she must be one difficult person to cohabitate with, but sheesh! it's to bad that John never learned the meaning of decorum, and tact.....I mean, come on, no matter how.... awful she was/is, whatever, those kids are THEIR kids, and why the hell isn't he there more sharing in the parental duties??? And we're not talking one or two kids, we're looking at eight count 'em eight to raise, discipline, love, nurture, teach.....( I will leave out the clothe and feed bit because I am sure that the family is not hurting cash wise, for now at least). Hey, if he wants to get a bachelor pad and play hide the winkie with every co-ed that comes his way, hey, more power to him, but be discreet, will ya, John??? What kind of example is he providing to his children, especially the males of the equation?? SHEESH!!!
~
I carry a pocket sized booklet version of the Constitution with me in my bag.Does that make me a geek? If so, then... GOOD
~ I am politically incorrect alot of the time, though I never set out to hurt anyone, and reign in my acerbic tongue to avoid doing just that.
~ I do swear at inanimate objects under my breath... What's that? You've never heard of Yoplait Fucking Yogurt before??? It's located right next to the regular Yoplait yogurt; it just engages in lewd and lascivious behavior when it won't stack properly for me, and falls all over the place.
~ which leads me to the following... yes, I let stupid , inconsequential things annoy me. I'm not proud of that fact but whatever.

Remember those styles shoes...

in this video? Oh yeah, I do!
Still can't believe that Robert Palmer is gone- man, he went too soon....

For the love of all that is holy........


PLEASE stop leaving these lying on supermarket shelves! You are wasting your time, as I throw them away. I know, I know, you mean well, but if I left every flippin' coupon lying about, my dairy would look like a humongous wastebasket, so please STOP IT!!!
Thank you.

On another note, my friend's Mom is doing much , much better- yay!! That was welcome news today, indeed!

My next day off is next Saturday( needed it off for a wedding)..man, that seems soooooooooo far off, even though I know it's only seven days. Is it next Saturday yet?Is it next Saturday yet?Is it next Saturday yet? ;)

Remember padiddles??

~ saw a financial planner last night, and am feeling a bit better about my situation. Feeling more focused, more directed. Still keep those fingers crossed though, okay?
~ if you will, send prayers/good vibes/good thoughts out to my friend's Mom? She is in the hospital with breathing problems, and obviously, my friend is pretty worried....thanks!
~ Edward is taking me to Millie's Lunch for breakfast, a belated birthday present. Looking forward to a good diner-like breakfast!

and Heeeeeere's Christy!

I can't help it, I love this guy but in the name of fairness, and because I want to make the most informed decision, I will not make up my mind for quite awhile. But Christy is good.....

Moreso and Thensomes......

~ do you ever wish to be 'rich and famous' like the celebrities( remember when they were called movie stars?) in the fanzines found at stupidmarket checkouts at a store near you? Hell, no!! Having my every move, every bump and blemish scrutinized and chronicled?!? Uh, no thanks; I'll keep my own little slice of contended relative obscurity( as far as the big pic is concerned) thank you.
~ 100 calorie paks- you know, the Hostess ones(Twinkies are forever and always my favorite!) are a Godsend!! And I have enough discipline now to be able to stop at one pack- the perfect sweet tooth fix!
~ do you prefer sweet or salty? Me- give me the salt. I am not a chocolate fan like so many other women, but do love it when it's covering a salty pretzel.
~ silence so often speaks volumes.
~
I have Never Say Never by Romeo Void running through my head.. beats having Rupert Holmes traipsing through my brain anyday!!( I won't mention the song, 'cause then we'll all be stuck with it!)
~ the Yankees still suck.
~
do you feel your age? Older? Younger? Does that go day to day? I , for the most part, still feel like I am 20-23. Some days when the stress is high, I can feel about 65, but I guess that stress thing holds true for most, yes?
~ Christy Mihos( I do love the guy) or Charlie Baker for Guv in 2010? I need to research Mr. Baker, but just from listening to him on various talk shows, he is intriguing, and obviosuly very bright. Let's jsut hope that the fine people of Taxachusetts shut off the damn auto pilot and vote with a fresh brain next year! The way we vote( can you say Kennedy and Kerry??) it must be hard for the rest of the country to believe that we are descended from the greats that kicked British butt so very long ago.

There is a small glimmer of hope...


Keep your collective fingers crossed for me?? Much thanks!

So Random it Hurts.....

~ ever feel like you have so much swimming 'round in your head, but you just can't articulate any of it, and you know that you'd feel so much better if you could?? Damnit. Sometimes if I listen to a certain song overandoverandoverandover, it triggers my thought process, then the mush that passes as thoughts become words, and though anyone else reading my 'stuff' may not truly 'get it', I will eventually feel unburdened, if not a bit better. Just that getting to that end point is damn painful sometimes.
~ amazing how it is that you can listen to a song, say, for years, but can somehow pick up different nuances every now and then, whether it be due to something as basic as a new pair of headphones, or just a different door to your brain opening up and allowing a different cognition to take over.
~ do you allow yourself a good cry if the feeling overtakes you, or do you fight it? (provided of course, you aren't like in public or any other compromsing situation) Yes. Fuck it. I mean, there must be a reason why we were given the ability to feel emotion and act on it, so why suppress it if you don't really need to? Besides, to let all of the anger/sadness/whatever out is a much needed catharsis.
~ I'm not going grey, I am going white.......not stressing about it, I mean, hey, at least I'll finally be a platinum blonde!(sortakindanotreally lolol)

Other Side of the World K.T. Tunstall
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-jpYwsfC3ZY


Over the sea and far away
She's waiting like an Iceberg
Waiting to change,
But she's cold inside
She wants to be like
the water,

All the muscles tighten in her face
Buries her soul in one embrace
They're one and the same
Just like water

Then the fire fades away
But most of everyday
Is full of tired excuses
But it's too hard to say
I wish it were simple
But we give up easily
You're close enough to see that
You're.... the other side of the world
to me

On comes the panic light
Holding on with fingers
and feelings alike
But the time has come
To move along

Then the fire fades away
But most of everyday
Is full of tired excuses
But it's too hard to say
I wish it were simple
But we give up easily
You're close enough to see that
You're.... the other side of the world

Can you help me?
Can you let me go
And can you still love me
When you can't see me anymore

Then the fire fades away
most of everyday
Is full of tired excuses
But it's too hard to say
I wish it were simple
But we give up easily
You're close enough to see that
You're.... the other side of the world
Ohh.... the other side of the world
You're.... the other side of the world
To me.

I woke up this morning craving one of these: mainly due to the fact that I consumed a sixer of Wachusett Blueberry Ale last night, and I honestly believe that the body craves something....greasy and substantial the morning after to help soak up any remaining alcohol that's swimming around in the system.
Anyways, I didn't want to spend money I don't have on a DD sandwich, and I didn't want to blow about 11 points on a substantial, but not-really-good-for-me breakfast, so I made my own, and it was GOOD!
Just spray a fry pan with cooking spray, fry one x-lg egg, top with 2 small slices bacon and 1 slice white american cheese, and put on a Weight Watchers whole wheat bun with a dab of ketchup. Total Points= 8, I am satisfyingly full, and seeing as I cooked it sans grease, I don't have that lead ball feeling in the pit of my stomach. YAY!
NOW I am ready for my walk( and yes, I have my water with me ;) )

Monday, July 06, 2009

Sheesh, where was MY mind today??

Not on work(!), and it didn't help matters when a certain oh-so-gorgeous delivery guy( whose company shall remain anonymous)made his weekly stop(sigh)....
I know, I'm bad, but hey, there is no harm in looking, yes??
Anyways, heard this on the way home- how apropo!

I Touch Myself - The DiVinyls


I love

myself I want you to love me
When I feel down I want you above me
I search myself I want you to find me
I forget myself I want you to remind me

I dont want anybody else
When I think about you I touch myself
Ooh I dont want anybody else oh no, oh no, oh no

Youre the one who makes me come running
Youre the sun who makes me shine
When youre around Im always laughing
I want to make you mine

I close my eyes and see you before me
Think I would die if you were to ignore me
A fool could see just how much I adore you
I get down on my knees I do anything for you

I dont want anybody else
When I think about you I touch myself
Ooh I dont want anybody else
Oh no, oh no, oh no

I want you I dont want anybody else
And when I think about you I touch myself
Ooh, ooh, oo, oo ahh

I dont want anybody else when I think about you
I touch myself ooh I dont want anybody else
Oh no, oh no, oh no

xtc-senses working overtime

Hey, hey,
The clouds are whey.
Theres straw for the donkeys,
And the innocents can all sleep safely,
All sleep safely.

My, my,
Sun is pie.
Theres fodder for the cannons,
And the guilty ones can all sleep safely,
All sleep safely.

And all the world is football-shaped
Its just for me to kick in space
And I can see, hear, smell, touch, taste
And Ive got one, two, three, four, five
Senses working overtime
Trying to take this all in.
Ive got one, two, three, four, five
Senses working overtime
Trying to taste the difference
tween a lemon and a lime
Pain and the pleasure
And the church bells softly chime.

Hey hey,
Night fights day.
Theres food for the thinkers,
And the innocents can all live slowly,
All live slowly.
My, my,
The sky will cry
Jewels for the thirsty,
And the guilty ones can all die slowly ,
All die slowly.

And all the world is biscuit-shaped,
Its just for me to feed my face,
And I can see, hear, smell, touch, taste,
And Ive got one, two, three, four, five,
Senses working overtime
Trying to take this all in.
Ive got one, two, three, four, five,
Senses working overtime
Trying to taste the difference,
tween a lemon and a lime,
Pain and the pleasure,
And the church bells softly chime,

And birds might fall from black skies,
And bullies might give you black eyes,
But to me its very, very beautiful


(englands glory!)
Beautiful
(a striking beauty!)

And all the world is football-shaped,
Its just for me to kick in space,
And I can see, hear, smell, touch, taste,
And Ive got one, two, three, four, five,
Senses working overtime
Trying to take this all in
Ive got one, two, three, four, five
Senses working overtime
Trying to tell the difference
tween the goods and grime
Turds and treasure
And theres one, two, three, four, five
Senses working overtime
Trying to take this all in
Ive got one, two, three, four, five
Senses working overtime
Trying to taste the difference
tween a lemon and a lime
Pain and the pleasure,
And the church bells softly chime

Happy Independence Day! Is this the BEST country in the world, bar none, or WHAT??? No matter what goes on to piss me off, regardless of who is residing in the Oval Office, I LOVE this country and will defend it no matter what. I am so proud of the fact that we ( so far, at least!) are not a Europe-Lite, that , despite how frustrating it can be at times, we unflinchingly help anyone in need, no questions asked....
I will forego the negative diatribe for now, and spare you all that tangent, and will finish by saying God Bless America.
