ive been listening to this song a lot for the last several days, and i was gonna blog about it and the chord it strikes with me, but its not happening. not quite ready to dig into that one. and besides, it cant be said any more simply than amy puts it, "I always have to comfort you when I'm there. But that's what I need you to do - stroke my hair!" ugh, and even as im trying to avoid digging into this, i cant help but notice that the few people in my life this doesnt apply to are all women. how interesting is that? in my life ive never known any men who could give as much as they needed and took from me. done - no more for now.

omg

wow... seriously, wow. just had a flashback to my first 2 years of college...



its not quite the same as when its live, and you're a drunken college kid, and everyone is singing and dancing along...but i think you get the picture!

playlist


"I'm so sick,
Infected with where I live
Let me live without this
Empty bliss, selfishness"


"Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life"


"I could be fake, I could be stupid...
I could be weak, I could be senseless
You know I could be just like you
You thought you were standing beside me
You were only in my way
You’re wrong if you think that I’ll be just like you"


"And the world spins by with everybody moaning
Pissing, bitching and everyone is shitting
On their friends, On their love, On their oaths
On their honour, On their graves, Out their mouths
And their words say nothing"


"Save your breath your soul is hollow
And it's all too much to swallow"


"But I'm fine
No one got left here
Well I'm fine
No one got left here"


"But it's my kind - I'll never be cruel and I'll always play the fool"

another good one...

ps. LOVE her shoes!

its official...

ive turned into a girl. check out these shoes ive been drooling over online:
Exhibit A and Exhibit B. the funniest part is that theres no way i could walk in these shoes - id break my neck in less than 30 seconds. not to mention that a shoe habit can get expensive! but a girl can dream, no? :)

couldn't have said it better myself ...

"I shouldn't play myself again,
I should just be my own best friend,
Not fuck myself in the head with stupid men"

i need some jim in my life...

god, i love this show! this totally cheered me up today (in addition to a mega bitch session with anna over dinner, drinks, and ben & jerry's!)

i really dig USA's show Psych. it's about a guy with excellent observational skills who pretends to be a psychic private investigator. the lead characters, sean and gus, crack me up and sean is kinda cute too. the show is a little campy, and kinda hammed up, but i just love it.

lol, sean and gus on an American Idol ripoff show...



"Did you really play Bud on The Cosby Show?" hehe...love it!

yea, i need to think about that...

ramblings

so today i had a million and one things to do, so of course, today is the day i get stuck at work til 6 (im supposed to leave at 4:30, and today i was even an hour early for work and shouldve really left at 3:30!). as a result, i got to america's best at exactly 6:30 - closing time. the woman was at the door, in the process of locking it when i ran up. she was totally not gonna let me in, but i pleaded a little and explained that i only needed to pick up my new glasses. she was awesomely nice and let me in. then i felt bad because she didnt just grab my glasses and toss them at me, as i expected -- she actually unwrapped them, used the spray and special cloth to clean them and removed the tags and tag glue.

i thanked her profusely then ran out (stumbled kinda -- the new glasses are MUCH stronger than the old ones and kinda make me dizzy) to attempt to last minute shop for something to wear to my job interview tomorrow. in my defense - i did actually spend a huge chunk of the weekend shopping for a suit (blech, ugh, ick). the problem is im short and it is hard to find jackets that do not make me look like a midget or a little kid dressing up in my parents' clothes. and since i hate "grownup" clothes, i dont really know what the hell im doing or looking for or where to look, etc. but i finally found something. im not thrilled with it, but it is wearable.

so now im off to watch an episode of Psych and head to bed so i can get up early and prep for interview.

you can take the girl out of the ghetto....

but you cant take the ghetto out of the girl (not completely, anyway!)

i dont care, this is my favorite song right now:

Ne-yo "Because of You"


i cant stop dancing around to it, and it just plain makes me feel good! you dont even wanna know how many times ive listened to this song on repeat (by itself!) in the last 2 days.

holy crap!

check this out: Couple Welcomes 17th Child - and Wants More

"...Michelle has been pregnant for 126 months — or 10.5 years — of her life".

i dont like being judge-y, but wow -- that is fucking crazy!

how to waste time at work....

turn yourself into a simpson's character: like me.

when it rains, it pours?

i got a surprise raise today and it completely made my day! my salary increased by 25%; i am thrilled! they are making it retroactive to july 1st, so that is pretty awesome too. i am very much looking forward to pay day on friday -- even more than usual!

on top of that, my cousin has a job lead for me. i didnt think i had the right qualifications, but i discussed it with her and she still wants me to send my resume. the position is for a psychosocial services director at a nursing home. a real job related to my actual field of study... my mind is reeling. im gonna send my resume and hope for the best. if it doesnt work out... well, hey, i've still got my raise!

what a way to turn around a crappy week!
