Your weekend??

Mine pretty much sucked ass! I had alot of shit happen and it didnt get better as it went on. I had some issues at work as per usual but it was harder to deal with this weekend as at work we got the news that a friend/co-worker had committed suicide. I also found out someone has been breaking into my accounts online and Ive had to do some things to deal with that issue not getting a whole lotta rest after everything making me a real bitch and snotty. So...to those who know me, Im sorry for my attitude this weekend...you know I love you and even more so since you dont get mad when I am a bitch sometimes

Anyways...I was listening to some music and this particular song had me hitting repeat...


Alkaline Trio - You're Dead


What the hell is your name
And can you explain this mess
It seems your playing a game
Where you only know how to take out the best
Cause if assholes could fly
This place would be busier than O'Hare
There's proof in the sky
It's as thick as our skulls yet it's thinner than air
I have something to say
If the chip off your shoulder should fall to your chest
Get it off right away
Cause if you don't then it won't be in peace that you rest
It's just a matter of time
That we all go away to a better place I'm told
It all sounds well and fine
But without you around I feel nothing but cold
And I now have nothing
But your heartbeat in my head
And a photograph of my traveling friend
And I became nothing when I found you were dead --- When I
found out I'd never see you again
And all the time they took talking in circles
To get them off the hook would take
miracle workers
We're nowhere near prepared there's
no way of knowing
Why don't they just admit they're scared
Cause its already showing


R.I.P. Matt



So lets post some songs that remind you of the weekend or just remind you of someone special who has touched your life in some way...big or small

i'm so sorry, sweetie, i truly am.

as for lyrics, i'm gonna post a few.



because he was my ma's favourite

will young - friday's child
(S Lee/ D Taylor)

We've been told to live our lives
Just working on a feeling
Waiting for the sun on what
We do believe in
I'm every man
I hear the cry of someone else
A drowning man reaching out
But no-one hears
I know a man living out his life
Without a reason
And he says...

Chorus
Monday's got a beautiful baby
And Wednesday's child can never win
Little Saturday will work till he's crazy
But Friday's child was born to give

Now what about all the unborn people that will suffer
At the hands of Mr. Right
Who cares about no other
I see a mother who lets her children use her up
I know a father who sacrifices his wayward son
I wonder
What you give that someone else is needing nothing
Next to nothing

Repeat Chorus


just because

norah jones - the prettiest thing

The prettiest thing
I ever did see
Was lightening from the top of a cloud
Moving through the dark a million miles an hour
With somewhere to be

So why does it seem
Like a picture
Hanging up on someone else's wall
Lately I haven't been myself at all
It's heavy on my mind

I'm dreaming again
Like I've always been
And way down low
I know

The prettiest thing
I ever did see
Was dusty as the handle on the door
Rusty as a nail stuck in the old pine floor
Looks like home to me

I'm dreaming again
Like I've always been
And way down low
I'm thinkin' of the prettiest thing

because it saved me a long, long time ago
joni - river

It’s coming on christmas
They’re cutting down trees
They’re putting up reindeer
And singing songs of joy and peace
Oh I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
But it don’t snow here
It stays pretty green
I’m going to make a lot of money
Then I’m going to quit this crazy scene
I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
I wish I had a river so long
I would teach my feet to fly
Oh I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
I made my baby cry

He tried hard to help me
You know, he put me at ease
And he loved me so naughty
Made me weak in the knees
Oh I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
I’m so hard to handle
I’m selfish and I’m sad
Now I’ve gone and lost the best baby
That I ever had
Oh I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
I wish I had a river so long
I would teach my feet to fly
Oh I wish I had a river
I made my baby say goodbye

It’s coming on christmas
They’re cutting down trees
They’re putting up reindeer
And singing songs of joy and peace
I wish I had a river
I could skate away on

sorry sugar i hope things get better soon

you dont want me to post a song of my weekend


Terra you know you are a great friend of mine, i know things will get betterIm here if you need me anytime

Love you Terra.

My condolences once again...

This weekend and now as I type... I have been so into Amos Lee's newly released album.

~keep it loose, keep it tight~

Well I walked over the bridge into the city where I live
And I saw my old landlord
We both said hello, there was nowhere to go
Cause his rent I couldn’t afford
Relationships change I think it’s kinda strange
How money makes a man grow
Some people they claim if you get enough fame
You live over the rainbow
But the people on the street out on buses or on feet
We all got the same blood flow
In society every dollar got a deed
We all need a place we can go
Feel over the rainbow
Sometimes we forget what we got
Who we are who we are not
Think we got a chance to make it right
If we keep it loose, keep it tight
I’m in love with a girl who’s in love with the world
But I can’t help but follow
I know someday she is bound to fly away
Stay over the rainbow
Sometimes my forget who we got
Who they are, who they are not
There is so much more in love than black & white ~ keep it loose, keep it tight

~soul suckers~

did you believe them when they told you
they discovered you
everything was free as long as you do what they tell you to.
think its true
but nothing could be further from the truth my love
did you even listen when they told you
to change your name
nobody wants honesty when lookin at a perfect frame
play the game
but nothing could be further from the truth my love
nothing is more profound than beauty in a wicked world
play it girl, play it girl
does it make you feel good
when they tell you what you want to hear
after they such all your soul
that's when they disappear
disappear forever like a prince in your little fairytale
you will find the day when they got your soul on sale
nothing could be further from the truth my love
nothing is more powerful than beauty in a wicked world


***
Words no doubt empower our minds... the Lyrics are truly what draws me to a song repeatedly. Words have the power to transform our thoughts and emotions... even help make sense in a world that makes little to no sense at all... at times.

~Thinking of you Terra and wishing you well on this day.

~Endless Hugs to you.

my weekend and the week before that was not good. i was really sad but i can't think of any lyrics to fit right now.

One more...

~all my friends~
Amos Lee

All my friends all live in pain
longing for the warmth of childhood
to bring them home again
All my friends got broken hearts
and if the world's a stage we're searching for our parts
We'll face the winds that break the stongest of trees
and beckon for the sweet, soft summer breeze
All my friends got broken wings
never will you hear them askin why the caged bird sings
All my friends know how to live
so much sorrow so much love to give
face the winds that break the stongest of trees
beckon for the sweet, soft summer breeze
We all know that the storm is coming
everybody wants to know which way to go
I see the crowds running, the winds gonna blow
All my friends are dear to me
when the storm comes they're as close as family
All my friends are the ones I choose
if I hear them knockin you know I can't refuse
We'll face the winds that break the strongest of trees
beckon for the sweet soft summer breeze all my friends

Hope your day will be brighter

the tone if not a literal description of my weekend

Oh it’s so funny to be seeing you after so long, girl.
And with the way you look I understand
That you are not impressed.
But I heard you let that little friend of mine
Take off your party dress.
I’m not going to get too sentimental
Like those other sticky valentines,
’cause I don’t know if you’ve been loving somebody.
I only know it isn’t mine.

Alison, I know this world is killing you.
Oh, alison, my aim is true.

Well I see you’ve got a husband now.
Did he leave your pretty fingers lying
In the wedding cake?
You used to hold him right in your hand.
I’ll bet he took all he could take.
Sometimes I wish that I could stop you from talking
When I hear the silly things that you say.
I think somebody better put out the big light,
Cause I can’t stand to see you this way.

Alison, I know this world is killing you.
Oh, alison, my aim is true.
My aim is true.

It was decent.

I stayed in on Saturday because I didn't feel like going out. Made it a Blockbuster night. I rented two movies: Taxi and A Touch of Pink. The first one sucked, the second was good.

I went to H&M and bought a shirt. Browsed around Bloomingdale's.

Went clubbing with a friend of mine. I danced my ass off because they were playing "Nasty Girl" by Inaya Day (the house reworking of Vanity 6's original classic) and a updated dance mix of Sheila E's "The Glamorous Life."

awww Terra I'm so sorry to hear that hon I don't know what to say except I hope you're alright remember I'm here if you need me

Im all good...just one of them things ya know It sucks that Matt had to go as far as he did and not come to someone for help. Keeping the staff motivated tho was the hard part, many didnt take it well and because of my training Im one of the people who have to deal with them and try to help them through their feelings. Made for a difficult weekend cause people tend to start blaming themselves in these situations.
Thanx for always offering an ear Tisse...Im always here for you too
