Fake Plastic Tress by Radiohead
Her green plastic watering can
For her fake chineserubberplant
In the fake plastic earth
That she bought from a rubber man
In a town full of rubber plants
To get rid of itself
It wears her out...
She lives with a broken man
A cracked polystyreneman
Who just crumbles and burns
He used to do surgery for girls
In the eighties but GRAVITY always wins
And it wears him out...
She looks like the real thing
She tastes like the real thing
My fake plastic love
But I can't help the feeling
I could blow through the ceiling
If I just turn and run
And it wears me out
If i could be who you wanted all the time..

hmmnnn...my friends updated their blogs. I'm entertained..me happy, me very happy.
I believe-
that we don't have to change friends
if we understand that friends change.
I believe-
that no matter how good a friend is,
they're going to hurt you every
once in a while and you must forgive
them for that.
I believe-
that true friendship continues to grow,
even over the longest distance.
I believe-
that you can do something in an instant
that will give you heartache for life.
I believe-
that you should always leave loved ones
with loving words. It may be the last
time you see them.
I believe-
that we are responsible for our actions,
no matter how we justify it.
I believe-
that regardless of how hot and
steamy a relationship is at first,
the passion fades and there had
better be something else to take its place.
I believe-
that money is a lousy way of keeping score.
I believe-
that my best friend and I can do anything
or nothing and have the best time.
I believe-
that sometimes when I'm angry
I have the right to be angry,
but that doesn't give me
the right to be cruel.
I believe-
that maturity has more to do with
what types of experiences you've had
and what you've learned from them
and less to do with how many
birthdays you've celebrated.
I believe-
that just because two people argue,
it doesn't mean they don't love each other.
And just because they don't argue,
it doesn't mean they do.
I believe-
that you shouldn't be so eager to find out a secret.
It could change your life forever.
I believe-
that your life can be changed in a matter of hours
by people who don't even know you.
I believe-
that credentials on the wall
do not make you a decent human being.
agree?

Long time no post. Can't think of a nice song to put in here...
"There are only 10 types of people in this world...
those who understand binary arithmetic and those who dont"
Thanks for the great quote Vincent

Separate Lives by Stephen Bishop
You called me from the room in your hotel
All full of romance for someone that you met
And telling me how sorry you were, leaving so soon
And that you miss me sometimes when you're alone in your room
Do I feel lonely too?
You have no right to ask me how I feel
You have no right to speak to me so kind
We can't go on just holding on to time
Now that we're living separate lives
Well I held on to let you go
And if you lost your love for me, well you never let it show
There was no way to compromise
So now we're living
Separate lives
Ooh, it's so typical, love leads to isolation
So you build that wall
Yes, you build that wall
And you make it stronger
Well you have no right to ask me how I feel
You have no right to speak to me so kind
Some day I might find myself looking in your eyes
But for now, we'll go on living separate lives
Yes for now, we'll go on living separate lives
Separate lives
You called me from the room in your hotel
All full of romance for someone that you met
And telling me how sorry you were, leaving so soon
And that you miss me sometimes when you're alone in your room
Do I feel lonely too?
You have no right to ask me how I feel
You have no right to speak to me so kind
We can't go on just holding on to time
Now that we're living separate lives
Well I held on to let you go
And if you lost your love for me, well you never let it show
There was no way to compromise
So now we're living
Separate lives
Ooh, it's so typical, love leads to isolation
So you build that wall
Yes, you build that wall
And you make it stronger
Well you have no right to ask me how I feel

But for now, we'll go on living separate lives
Yes for now, we'll go on living separate lives

Iris by Goo Goo Dolls
And I'd give up forever to touch you
'Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now
And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
'Cause sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
And you bleed just to know you're alive
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And I'd give up forever to touch you
'Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now
And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
'Cause sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
And you bleed just to know you're alive
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
Don't Throw It All Away
Maybe I don't wanna know the reason why
But lately you don't talk to me
And baby I can't see me in your eyes
I hold you near but you're so far away
And it's losing you I can't believe
To watch you leave and let this feeling die
You alone are the living thing that keeps me alive
And tomorrow if I am here without your love
you know I can't survive
Only my love can raise you high above it all
Don't throw it all away our love, our love
Don't throw it all away our love
Don't throw it all away
Don't throw it all away
We can take the darkness and make it full of light
Let your love flow back to me
How can you leave and let this feeling die
This happy room will be a lonely place when you are gone
And I won't even have your shoulders for the crying on
No other man's love could be as true, I'm begging you
You alone are the living thing that keeps me alive
And tomorrow if I am here without your love
you know I can't survive
Only my love can raise you high above it all
Don't throw it all away our love, our love
Don't throw it all away our love
So high...above it all
Don't throw it all away our love, our love
Don't throw it all away our love
Maybe I don't wanna know the reason why
But lately you don't talk to me
And baby I can't see me in your eyes
I hold you near but you're so far away
And it's losing you I can't believe
To watch you leave and let this feeling die
You alone are the living thing that keeps me alive
And tomorrow if I am here without your love
you know I can't survive
Only my love can raise you high above it all
Don't throw it all away our love, our love
Don't throw it all away our love
Don't throw it all away
Don't throw it all away
We can take the darkness and make it full of light
Let your love flow back to me
How can you leave and let this feeling die
This happy room will be a lonely place when you are gone
And I won't even have your shoulders for the crying on
No other man's love could be as true, I'm begging you
You alone are the living thing that keeps me alive
And tomorrow if I am here without your love
you know I can't survive
Only my love can raise you high above it all
Don't throw it all away our love, our love
Don't throw it all away our love
So high...above it all
Don't throw it all away our love, our love
Don't throw it all away our love

What Women Should Know About Men
First make sure that you have the right guy. He should be one who has what you have or more so that you can strategically provide input here and there to help guide him when needed without your having to "run the show" completely.
If you are determined that you are in love, then you must love him with all his faults, and don't put him down as being less than what he should be, "Your Man".
Do not look for reasons to argue. There will be enough chances arising anyway. Instead look for some reasons to laugh with him, and enjoy spending time together.
When someone tells you something negative about your man, if you love him with all your heart, don't take heed to what anyone says. In time negativity will manifest itself. If you love him you'll deal with it and your relationship will still flourish in the long haul.
If he just refuses to be wrong on a subject, remember that you have the extra spice to let him be right just to keep his special chemical elements in tact. He'll realize he's wrong later on and in a moment of love he'll tell you!
Don't tell anyone you aren't for certain that you can trust, anything about you and your man be it good or bad.
When he is angry, don't feed the fire. Don't try and get overly emotional either. Study him and learn exactly what brings him back to reality. It could simply be silence.
If you have tried as hard as you can to figure him out but nothing can bring back old sparks that have gone out, just be thankful for the good times, learn from the bad times, cut your losses and move on quickly.
Don't forget the little things such as an occasional card, his favorite beer, organizing for him, massages after a hard day, and understanding his special interests. After a while he'll catch on and do the same for you if he doesn't already.
Give him time to himself. If he hung out with you all the time, then he would become like you. You want a man; let him go be with the men sometimes. If he doesn't do it already, then suggest it.
Save a little something extra for the two of you just in case his efforts at being in control somehow fail him. Should trouble arise, inform him that "he" has a little something that you held onto for him for a rainy day. He'll see you as a life saver!
Keep the surroundings clean! I know some men are already neat freaks, but if you are not lucky enough to have that kind, then you shouldn't let the two of you live in a dump!
If something bad happens, for instance: he cheats and you find out. Be cool. Assess the situation. Men can be manipulated sometimes at certain weak moments. Not making excuses, but just because something happens of this nature doesn't mean that he doesn't love you or that he isn't intending on staying with you 'til death do you part'. If you love him, or want to still love him, then cut the drama short after you make your point, forgive him and keep your head together. He'll respect you for that
and think hard before doing it again.
If he's lying and you know it, don't question it. Strategically figure out a way to bust him, so that it all comes out, and he's left trying to explain. When he tries to explain, be interested, but don't comment. Just let it ride. Silence is punishment enough. Expect roses and an apology later.
If you're tired of his crap and everything he does disgusts you, then it's time to move on.

I'LL BE by Edwin McCain
The strands in your eyes that color them wonderful
Stop me and steal my breath
Emeralds from mountains thrust toward the sky
Never revealing their depth
Tell me that we belong together
Dress it up with the trappings of love
I'll be captivated
I'll hang from your lips
Instead of the gallows of heartache that hang from above
I'll be your crying shoulder
I'll be love suicide
I'll be better when I'm older
I'll be the greatest event of your life
Rain falls angry on the tin roof
As we lie awake in my bed
You're my survival, you're my living proof
My love is alive not dead
Tell me that we belong together
Dress it up with the trappings of love
I'll be captivated I'll hang from your lips
Instead of the gallows of heartache, that hang from above
I've been dropped out, burned up, fought my way back from the dead
Tuned in, turned on, Remembered the things that you said
The strands in your eyes that color them wonderful
Stop me and steal my breath
Emeralds from mountains thrust toward the sky
Never revealing their depth
Tell me that we belong together
Dress it up with the trappings of love
I'll be captivated
I'll hang from your lips
Instead of the gallows of heartache that hang from above
I'll be your crying shoulder
I'll be love suicide
I'll be better when I'm older
I'll be the greatest event of your life
Rain falls angry on the tin roof
As we lie awake in my bed
You're my survival, you're my living proof
My love is alive not dead
Tell me that we belong together
Dress it up with the trappings of love
I'll be captivated I'll hang from your lips
Instead of the gallows of heartache, that hang from above
I've been dropped out, burned up, fought my way back from the dead
Tuned in, turned on, Remembered the things that you said

ha! Have my own blog...actually I do have an on-line journal. It's hidden somewhere in my webby...the link I mean. This one's for public viewing and I don't have any idea on what to put here. I'm no writer and haven't been able to watch a gig since January of this year so it can't be about the gigs that I've been to. I do not want to write about the love of my life too personal...so for now...or at least til I find a topic to share with you, I'll be posting lyrics of songs that I listen to.

TIL THERE WAS YOU by The Beatles
There were bells on a hill
But I never heard them ringing
No, I never heard them at all
Till there was you
There were birds in the sky
But I never saw them winging
No, I never saw them at all
Till there was you
Then there was music and wonderful roses
they tell me in sweet fragrant meadows
of dawn and dew
There was love all around
There were bells on a hill
But I never heard them ringing
No, I never heard them at all
Till there was you
There were birds in the sky
But I never saw them winging
No, I never saw them at all
Till there was you
Then there was music and wonderful roses
they tell me in sweet fragrant meadows
of dawn and dew
There was love all around

GHOST by Indigo Girls
there's a letter on the desktop that i dug out of a drawer
the last truce we ever came to from our adolescent war
and i start to feel a fever from the warm air through the screen
you come regular like seasons shadowing my dreams
and the mississippi's mighty but it starts in Minnesota
at a place where you could walk across with five steps down
and i guess that's how you started like a pinprick to my heart
but at this point you rush right through me and i start to drown
and there's not enough room in this world for my pain
signals cross and love gets lost and time passed makes it plain
of all my demon spirits i need you the most
i'm in love with your ghost i'm in love with your ghost
dark and dangerous like a secret that gets whispered in a hush (don't tell a soul)
when i wake the things i dreamt about you last night make me blush (don't tell a soul)
when you kiss me like a lover then you sting me like a viper
i go follow to the river play your memory like the piper
and i feel it like a sickness how this love is killing me
but i'd walk into the fingers of your fire willingly
and dance the edge of sanity i've never been this close in love with your ghost ooooh…
unknowing captor you'll never know how much you pierce
my spirit but i can't touch you can you hear it a cry to be free
or i'm forever under lock and key as you pass through me
now i see your face before me i would launch a thousand ships
to bring your heart back to my island as the sand beneath me slips
as i burn up in your presence and i know now how it feels
to be weakened like Achilles with you always at my heels
and my bitter pill to swallow is the silence that i keep
that poisons me i can't swim free the river is too deep
though i'm baptized by your touch i am no worse at most in love with your ghost
