I've got this friend...


I've got this friend
I don't think you know him
He's not much for words
He's hid in his hardened way

Oh I've got this friend
A loveless romantic
All that he really wants
Is someone to want him back

Oh, if the right one came
If the right one came along
Oh, If the right one came, along

I've got this friend
I don't think you know her
She sings a simple song
It sounds a lot like his

Oh I've got this friend
Holding onto her heart
Like it's a little secret
Like it's all she's got to give

Oh, if the right one came
If the right one came along
Oh, if the right one came, along

It'd be such a shame
(If they never meet)
She sounds lovely
(He sounds right out of a dream)
If only
(If only)
If only

Oh
Oh, if the right one came
If the right one came along
Oh, (I've got this friend) if the right one came
If the right one came along
Oh, (I've got this friend)
If the right one came, along

Happy Samhain!

Break Your Heart

Natalie Merchant / Indian Love Bride ©1997
People downcast, in despair
see the disillusion everywhere
hoping their bad luck will change
gets a little harder every day

People struggle, people fight
for the simple pleasures in their lives
but trouble comes from everywhere
it's a little more than you can bear

I know that it will hurt
I know that it will break your heart
the way things are
and the way they've been
and the way they've always been

People shallow, self-absorbed
see the push and shove for their rewards
I, me, my is on their minds
you can read about it in their eyes
People ruthless, people cruel
see the damage that some people do
full of hatred, full of pride
it's enough to make you loose your mind

I know that it will hurt
I know that it will break your heart
the way things are
and the way they've been
I know that it will hurt
I know that it will break your heart
the way things are
and the way they've been
Don't spread the discontent
don't spread the lies
don't make the same mistakes
with your own life
you never will let love survive
I know that it will hurt
I know that it will break your heart
the way things are
and the way they've been
Don't spread the discontent
don't spread the lies
don't make the same mistakes
with your own life
don't disrespect yourself
don't loose your pride
and don't think that
everybody's gonna choose your side

What Climate Change?

My newest irritation: Climate change deniers


October as I grew up:




October as my man-child knows it to be:






Notice any difference?  Who cares if it's pretty.  It would be a dust bowl if we did not bring in water because we have not had real rain/winter season SINCE I MOVED BACK, what 10+ years now?  I actually don't own a coat and the umbrella is in the back of my car - I think.

Pretty Grey


Amid the vulcan aspects of life, I got my horse back on this year!  YAY ME!



On my list...


While I have done this:






What I REALLY want to do is this:





And this I MUST ABSOLUTELY DO!

Darkness has fallen

This morning felt like this.
Odd for me as usually this isn't something I would listen to but some how I find it comforting.
