then stay now
please don’t go
hold me close
make it so
just a little comfort
one moment here
take us far
leaving the tears
taste each kiss
heaven’s flavor
whisper sweet
warm to savor
so please don’t go
stay with me
I’ll hold you close
into our dreams

haven’t we met before
so long ago
a time we can’t remember?
haven’t we touched before
then wanted more
not asking for forever?
haven’t the stars
twinkled from afar
winking mischief upon us?
hasn’t fortune shone
upon us alone
before fading to dust?
haven’t we walked away
yet wanted to stay
only to say goodbye?
haven’t we lived in regret
trying hard to forget
ever wondering why?

I just got off the phone with my sister and my blackberry vibrated, signaling an email. I took the phone out of my pocket and saw that the email was from Erik Thomson. 🙂 And his message just made me giddy. LOL!

dear valerie,
happy new year to you and yours!!!!
many thanks for revamping the web page….you are a legend and one day
WE WILL HAVE THAT MARGERITA!!!
[cutting the stuff about his current projects…]
i will keep you informed of all future developments.
have a great year,
cheers erik.

Isn’t he totally sweet? Totally sweet!

I had emailed him to wish him a Happy New Year and to tell him about the revamp of the website. I’m so glad he responded. As a total fangirl, nothing beats feeling appreciated by the person you admire. 🙂 I told one of the vice principals and she was duly happy for me. (And she’s a Xena/Herc fan who adored Ares too and actually knew who Erik was!)

Anyhoo, just had to share. LOL!

no, it’s not a waste
but maybe a mistake
not thinking forward
just reveling in now
so thoughtless
so carefree
now tied down
without knowing
life is growing
deserved or not
bringing light unseen
so not a waste
just a young mistake
a debt to pay
or a second chance

Everyone was so tired at work, me included.  :lol:  I think it’s going to take awhile to get into the swing of things again.  I love having time off.

We went grocery after work.  Fun.

Life’s routine.
