American Cities That Best Fit You::
75% Honolulu
70% Miami
65% Atlanta
65% Austin
65% San Diego

Yes, Honolulu. But of course, if I actually moved to Hawaii, I would probably end up on a different island. Like Kauai. Yeah. 😉

swear to the stars

23 February 2007

he’ll swear to the stars
he loved you until the end
he’ll swear to the moon
he would take you back again
he doesn’t know how to stop
he doesn’t know how to lie
he’s true to his word
he just can’t say goodbye
his mind is sound
his heart beats strong and true
his intentions are pure
but his soul needs more than you
he’ll watch you walk away
swear you’ll turn around
he’ll wait for your shining smile
even when the lights are out…

The folks at work are so very nice. It’s wonderful when you are appreciated. I will miss them. I have three more days with them…

behind the clouds

Sky shots rock, don’t you think? 😉

saffy is cute

Isn’t the Yorkie adorable?

I’m tired because we spent a couple of hours straightening out the house. Why does it take so long to clean a bathroom? Oh the suffering! Bah!

breaking this off isn’t a game
so I won’t take all the blame
think it’s easy for me
watching the tears in your eyes
think I don’t feel
my own heart stopping inside
we both know
we’re merely passing time
we both know
there’s something better to find
I’ll make you hate me
if it’s easier that way
I’ll make you see fire
too hot for even you to stay
but I won’t take all the blame
when we finally stop this game…

I work and work, but I know I’m going to leave it all half undone. I feel a little bad that I won’t be able to show the next person what needs to be done, but such is life. Alas!

For one short moment after school, I thought it was Friday. Ye gods!

the afternoon clouds...

It rained on the way to work and on the way home. But less so on the way home, as evidenced above. 🙂 I’m going to miss driving home with my sweetie. Ah well.

Nascar on HDNet on my TV. Oh my. 😉

Chatting with my 9 months pregnant Canadian friend. CRFFF, when is that baby coming out? (Not sure if she’ll read this, but she knows who she is if she does!)

ETA: Oh, the hubby scored two tickets to The Police concert. Neat, eh? Do we go or make a profit? Hmmmm.

maybe that day

21 February 2007

he sees her picture
he stops inside
it rushes back at him
her half smile
her eyes just for him
her soft touch
he cries inside
the memories a flood
holding hands
sharing vows
their first kiss
he shakes inside
questions rising again
why did she walk away
why couldn’t he hold on
when did it go wrong
he turns from her picture
takes a breath
one day he’ll move on
one day he’ll forget
one day love will find him
maybe that day he’ll hold on…

I think it’s a bummer that I can’t visit myspace at work. I wonder if it will be different at the new job. Probably not! 😉

I did a quiz/bulletin forward thing at my myspace. Got it from my niece. (And when I say niece, I mean the daughter of one of my cousins. My sister has not yet had little ones, so I don’t have “proper” nephews or nieces. Just so you know.) Anyhoo, the bulletin forward thingy is about the top boy and girl on your list. Mine are my cousin and Greg. Ummm, yeah. I don’t actually know a lot of the fellas on my top list. Let me look. Greg, Josh, one nephew, one husband of niece, one friend, Jared. The named ones are “actors” and I only really “know” one of them.

Oh well. 😉

Isn’t it sad when you’re sad for other people? The poem above is a result of me feeling sad for someone else. I don’t even know if “he” really thinks like that, but it’s just my perception of his situation. And someday, I might even forget who I’m talking about. LOL! 😉
