Everything Has Changed

Time passes… one day you wake up, no longer thinking of yourself because you belong to them. I live for them now.



I plant the kind of kiss that wouldn't wake a baby
On the self-same face that wouldn't let me sleep
And the street is singing with my feet
And dawn gives me a shadow I know to be taller

All down to you, dear
Everything has changed

My sorry name has made it to graffiti
I was looking for someone to complete me

Not anymore, dear
Everything has changed

And we made the moon our mirrorball
The streets, an empty stage
The city sirens violins
Everything has changed

So lift off love
Lift off love

We took the town to town last night
We kissed like we invented it
And now I know what every step is for
To lead me to your door

Know that while you sleep
Everything has changed

We made the moon our mirrorball
The streets, an empty stage
The city sirens violins
Everything has changed
Everything has changed
Everything has changed

So lift off love
Lift off love (down to you, dear)
Lift off love (down to you, dear)
Lift off love (down to you, dear)
Lift off love (down to you, dear)
Lift off love (down to you, dear)

Bad Night's Sleep...

So... Alias: Damon had a "Bros Night" last night and this little woman has grievances:

1. Beer mixed with sleep breath is soooo not attractive (No morning kiss for you!)
2. The snoring was unbelievably loud (I think my eardrums bled a little!)
3. The random grunts and chaotic twitching (Kept me awake till well past 11:30.)

So… today I’m a tired, pissy, slightly less optimistic writer, who is trying to find the will to keep her eyelids up and her mind focused. (O, Hell I'd settle for functioning!) However, at least I’m not married to this Guy! (You have to follow this link!! This Guy, Adam, talks in his sleep and his wife records his little pearls of wisdom so we can all enjoy! The first time I visited I laughed so hard I choked!)

Consider my blessings counted! And Thanks Honey for keeping the your narcoleptic verbal diarrhea an internal dialog.

A Random Weekend Chronicle

Ever tried to chronicle your weekend adventures? Well this is my attempt and I hope it's as fun to read/look at, as it was for me to... traverse. :)

Friday was a wonderful shotgun starting line. My husband (Alias: Damon) was my dinner date at a local pizza/Italian sports bar. We drank beer, ate good food, played footsy under the table, and texted to our hearts content.

We also attempted a bit of a shopping spree. My many treasures can be seen below. (The case is for my makeup. The Black/Gray/White fabric is my newest scarf. The other pictures are self explanatory.)

Damon’s Treasures were far more masculine and post shopping Zakk Wylde soundtracked the evening. (If you haven’t listened to BLS before… Wow… give it a chance. (FYI - This music would be classified in the same genre as Ozzy Osbourne.))

To finish the night… we watched Clash of The Titans. However, Damon fell asleep within the first 45 minutes. LOL! I really liked the movie, but holy cows, pigs, chickens, AND a horse (for good measure)… Sam Worthington has the skinniest “man legs” I’ve ever seen!!! I just could not get over it. Thank goodness they put those greaves on his legs or I’d never have noticed the rest of the movie! J/K (Sort of)... It was worth the watching.

So, Saturday dawned bright and chipper. Damon had to work; leaving me with hours to venture forth and enjoy a solo day. (I, of course, wore my new headband, scarf, and purse for my outing.) I started with an 11:15 showing of Eat Pray Love. I HIGHLY recommend this movie! It was everything it was promised to be and everything I could have asked for. Bonus: It left me with a feeling of HOPE! (Love it when movies do that.)
Then I visited a local art show. I found so many gorgeous things and met so many wonderful people. And yes....I did impulsively purchase a few BEAUTIFUL things for myself.

When I returned home I curled up in the sunshine with the current book I’m reading. (OMG, I LOVE THIS SERIES!!! When I grow up I want to be just like Anita Blake! (At lease up to book 9.)LOL)

I fell asleep for about an hour, until Damon finally made it home. :) He woke me up with a big hug and kiss! Then he promptly feel asleep! LOL, giving me even more quiet time with my book.
When the sun started going down I decided not to waste the twilight. I grabbed my keys and headed to the park for a stroll. It was lovely and when I got home Damon was awake. (Finally)

Sunday morning found me very grumpy and in need of work. So... I sent Damon out to have fun while I worked my hands raw. A very good friend of mine calls it a nesting episode when I start cleaning like a loon. LOL! (BTW: Thank you Lord for Clorox wipes!!!)

Five hours later, found our apartment very, VERY clean and me reading in the sunshine again. Damon came home, made a wonderful dinner, and we watched From Paris with Love. The movie was great and NO... this opinion is not based on the fact that I find Jonathan Rhys Meyers to be… very, VERY Pretty! (LOL, Damon would try to convince you otherwise.)

Today, Monday, found me waking to one of my very favorite things…FOG. I love it! It makes the world seem mysterious and it smells amazing. This was the Southern view out my apartment window. So... a chronicled adventure from beginning to end. It would probably be far more exciting if I were traveling. (I'll have to keep it in mind for my next nomadic outing.) Anywho, A Very Happy Foggy Monday to You!

P.S. A very Happy Birthday to my Mother (Alias: Chloris).
