Burning the Manual

I have righted myself before you.
Pulled the knife out of my wound,
And shoved it back in yours.
Like you knew I would.
Like you knew I could.
Before I ever had a name
You knew it was there,
Everything for you
And you know it, and I
Know it still, the same.




p.s. who is driving who or...what?

HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ERGO!!!!

Hope you are having a great day.

Love you bunches!

L.

Original Punk L said...

Don't know if anyone's about, but "Hi!" to everyone.

Original Punk L said...

Hey, S.S.,

I was clicking on the links on your blog today to listen to the music, and two are removed and one has a different audio!

Here, There And Everywhere and ...And The Love are removed for copyright reasons and Invincible by Muse has a different audio due to, yes, copyright reasons.

Didn't know if you knew, so I thought I would give you a heads up.

I miss your little surprise links. They're like a small prize waiting to be discovered.

Hope you are doing great, and taking care of yourself.

I haven't forgotten,

Pactum Serva.


Love,
L.

ergoproxy said...

hey L!!!
Thank you :]

and for the e-card from you and J!!

Original Punk L said...

Hey Ergo! You're very welcome. J. says Happy Birthday too and Hello!

Did you ever get your package from us?

ergoproxy said...

no it hasn't come yet, which is odd

I am hoping it's just caught up in customs or something cause they are busy
I'll let you know if it comes

Original Punk L said...

...or did the Jiffy Pop blow up on the way there? 0_o

Original Punk L said...

Well, crap, Ergo. It has been about a month since we sent it. I hope you get it soon!

We sent you some Jiffy Pop popcorn to try and three boxes of Cracker Jacks (with a prize in every box! Look kids!), one for each for you, DH and BG. Some other goodies too.

ergoproxy said...

they may not have liked the popcorn, but if they did they'd take it out and repack, that might delay it a bit, I'm not sure
they are pretty strict on grains and other foods coming in, so if they have to inspect it it might hold it up

Original Punk L said...

Inspected Jiffy Pop! I didn't think about that. Hopefully it will be on it's way soon.

How are the chickies?

Original Punk L said...

Going to bed, but I'll see you all tomorrow.

Mayo, S.S., Ergo, Elena, Wendy, Amy, Martha, B.C., Mya, Miss T., Possum, Wish, TJ, KOL Anons, Anima, Paperheart, Jade, m., PJ, anons, lurkers, passer-bys and anyone I missed,

Have a Good Night and Sweet Dreams.

*comes in singing*

~~~"They say it's your birthday
We're gonna have a good time
I'm glad it's your birthday
Happy birthday to you...."

Hello Mayo, SS, Ergo (the birthday girl), L (and J), Elena, KOL anon, other KOL anons, Wish, Amy, Martha, Mya, TJ, Possum, everyone!!!

~~~HAPPY BIRTHDAY ERGO!!!!!~~~

I hope you're enjoying a bright (and blissful even) birthday!

The candles on that cake are in no way representative of your age. They are simply for wishing purposes!

L: Dang it! I just missed you! I would have been here sooner; but, I was having cookie trouble again.
Did you have J have a nice time last night?

KOL anon: As always, THANK YOU!!!! That first interview was, indeed, PRICELESS!!!!

"Porno days killed the mustache" LOL!

So, the powers that be at their record label said they were handsome and they decided to start growing facial hair to "ugly themselves up" a bit, huh?

Well, I hate to be the one to disappoint them by letting them know: IT DIDN'T WORK!

They are beautiful (and beautifully talented) men and they will simply have to learn to accept and live with that!

;)

Wish: I'm glad to hear you've been doing well! Manic Street Preachers, The Backstreet Boys and Slipknot, eh? Diversity, I like it!

How is everyone tonight? Did you all have a nice weekend? I hope ya'll did!

Hugs and Love,
~Namaste~
6/Wendy

PS for Martha: Thank you, thank you, thank you for the HIM link from ONTD!!!! In my opinion, another beautiful (and beautifully talented) man/band! YAY for Valentine's Day! I hope that release date works out. That would be perfect!!!!

Hi PJ, Sweetcheeks, SC, Magic Pie, DG and MissT!

Anon616 said...

Paperheart!!!!!

How are you, love? A very happy "uncoming" birthday to you!

And, a happy belated birthday to Miranth!!!! I do believe her birthday was this month as well.

Amy: Where have you been, young lady? How's the mister, dad and Lear?

ergoproxy said...

hello wendy!!

big OMNOMNOM for the birthday cake!!!
and thanks for the card too :]

Anon616 said...

You're welcome. Ergo!!! The cake was supposed to be adorned (and encircled) with fresh strawberries and chocolate whipped cream; but, I got a little hungry while baking and went a little wild.... Ooops!

I'm sorry!

;)

have you been having a good day, ergo?

Anon616 said...

Hi TJ!!! Any news on the kitty front?

toujours said...

hi wendy. :)

no, it's a long-term situation because there isn't anything i can do right now. maybe in a few months. :(

ergoproxy said...

hello TJ

a quiet day but nice, esp with all the god wishes
waiting for BG and hubby to be home to get my other prezzies
I had a friend over for dinner yesterday, easier to do things on a sunday than a weekday


how are you?

Anon616 said...

:(

*hugs TJ*

Did you at least have a nice weekend? Watched any good movies? Did any chair dancing?

:)

toujours said...

oh, that's good to hear, ergo. i tried to wish you a happy birthday too, a little earlier, but it came out a bit lame, so: happy birthday! :)

Anon616 said...

god wishes


Now those are very impressive wishes to receive, Ergo!!!

Ummm... those wishes didn't have anything to do with MissT's neighbor's dog, did they?

ergoproxy said...

thanks TJ :]

toujours said...

aaw, thanks, wendy! i'm having a good weekend so far (i still have a day left!), got a few projects done. feeling quiet now though, probably just all tuckered out. lol

Anon616 said...

TJ: Tuckered out from a busy week? Well, Sundays (or Mondays) are perfect for "detuckering". I did a bit of that, myself, today!

ergoproxy said...

god wishes?

I must be pretty special lol

"good" wishes


what projects are you working on now TJ? your box?

Anon616 said...

ergoproxy said...
god wishes?

I must be pretty special lol
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

We knew you were special, Ergo. We just didn't know you were THAT special!!!

All I got was a birthday card from Father Francis in Taiwan.

:(

Oh, he did send a nice picture though!

toujours said...

yep, ergo, today i did a bunch of hand-sewing, gear for my sewing kit and then finishing the altar cloth/furoshiki for my travel altar. thank goodness there was an ncis marathon running today!

wendy, tuckered out form all that sitting on my butt and plying a needle and thread! lol

JocelynHolly said...

Hey Wendy, TJ, Amy and Ergo!

Yes, I have my birthday coming up on the 27th! I'm excited but then again, it's just another day of the year, right? Plus, I will only be 17, nothing special. =]

How is everyone doing? I miss ya'll!

Anon616 said...

TJ: Needles, thread and I do not get along for extended periods of time.

We only get along long enough to sew a button back on or fix a hem or seam! And, the hem and seam is pushing it!

Original Punk J said...

Well look who's here! The birthday girl and her cohorts! Happy Birthday Ergo! How is it so far?

Hey Wendy! Hey TJ!

I'm very excited to be here, apparently! Exclamation points galore!

Amyranth said...

I can't even remember what I got for my birthday this year, and I'm only 26.

Apparently, memory problems are an early indicator of Alzheimer's, so this time next year, I should be able to buy my own Christmas presents. XP


I'm going to run though, just got back in and I need a good snooze before tomorrow. I'm being a jerk and going to apply for new jobs before I head to work. XB

Have a good night girls! Happy Birthday again Ergo, and Happy Birthday PH!!

Original Punk J said...

And I missed Amy, shoot.

BUBBLES! *hugs* How are you doing, sweetheart?

ergoproxy said...

hi J!!!

thank you :]

PH every birthday is special,
as a friend of mine always said "better than a pat on the head with a shovel"!

JocelynHolly said...

Goodnight Amy! Hope to catch up with you soon ! =]
*HUG*

Hey OPJ! How are you doing?

ergoproxy said...

goodnight Amy, sweet dreams, hope the job hunt goes well

Anon616 said...

Paperheart!!!! (again)

*huge hug*

I've missed you and every birthday is special ~ even that 17th one!

Do you have any tattoo getting plans this year? If I remember correctly, you got your first for your 16th birthday last year. Or, was that the piercing???

JocelynHolly said...

I'm doing fantastic, except for today at work! Haha.
I am just a walking accident apparently. How are you doing J?

Original Punk J said...

Goodnight Amy, and good luck with the hunting!

I'm ok, PH, not great but not bad either. What's going on in your world? Still playing guitar?

Anon616 said...

J and Amy!!!!

Poop, Amy is going. Goodnight, Amy and sweet dreams! Good luck with the hunt!

J: Long time no chat, here. How are you?

Pssst... I think my exclamation marks are contagious!!!

JocelynHolly said...

Wendy, that was the piercing, but my dad is paying for my first tattoo for this birthday. =]

I would love suggestions. I want one to remember my brother, and preferably on my shoulder.. ? I'm confused because there are so many great ideas and designs out there!

JocelynHolly said...

J, whats up in your world dear?
My life is swell. The boy and I have been together for 9 months, yay!! Haha. My niece is now one and a half. I'm still working a dead end job at A&W, annd next year is my final year in high school and I have no clue what I want to do yet after wards!

I'm not really playing guitar anymore.. but the fire is still lit and I would love to pick it up again!!

Original Punk J said...

I knew we'd catch each other sooner or later, Wendy. It's inevitable! :D

We had plans with friends last night. My niece's wedding was at 11 AM CST, in her hometown near Nashville. It would've taken about 4 hours to get there for a 5-minute ceremony. No way my knees would've held out! But I did talk to her yesterday afterwards. All went well. :)

PH, I know this sounds simplistic, but what about the outline of a heart with his initials in it?

ergoproxy said...

oh goodness PH what a hard choice, but a fantastic idea

was there anything he really liked? Something you could base the design on, or initials?

toujours said...

holy crap, i go away for one minute, and boom! everyone comes out of the woodwork! good night amyranth, and hello paperheart and j.!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

YAY for this year's birthday present, Paper!!!

A tattoo to remember and honor your brother...
I think that is such a great idea, love!!! And, I know it will make him happy too!

I'm not very good with tattoo ideas. I have virgin skin!

What were some of his favorite things?

JocelynHolly said...

J, I considered something similar to that, but I was leaning towards maybe a star. The Thursday night that my brother died, I was with some friends and there was only one star in the sky.. I like to think that that was my brother watching over me.. but just one star? How do I make that work?

Ergo, I was thinking of working some song lyrics into my tattoo from the song that was played at my brothers funeral, it was one that was most played on his playlist.

Original Punk J said...

I'm glad to hear things are going well for you, Bubbles! Good ol' A and W, as long as there are hot dogs to sell, your job is safe. ;D

It's been up and down here. L's bunny, Logan, passed away in May from cancer. That was a heartbreaker. My furbabies are ok, and her other bunny is good. We were going to be moving to another apt in our complex due to the outside wall and living room floor here are oozing down the hill and coming apart, respectively. Management wouldn't pay professional movers to move us, so we're going to wait until next year and move on our own dime.

My niece got married yesterday to her man of almost 4 years. They're living in New Orleans, where she goes to law school and he works for the Army Corps.

AAAAAAAnd, other than that, nothing's changed. :D

JocelynHolly said...

Hey Elena! Long time no see! *HUG*

Wendy, well, he was about to begin his military training this year. It's hard to describe Troy. He really loved random things and just enjoyed his life too much to limit himself to a life stuck in a box..

Anon616 said...

It would've taken about 4 hours to get there for a 5-minute ceremony. No way my knees would've held out! But I did talk to her yesterday afterwards. All went well. :)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


O_O

Well, I think the decision NOT to go was a good one! I'm sure she was happy to hear from you though!

I like the heart and intitials idea!

Or maybe a butterfly or dragonfly!

JocelynHolly said...

Woah.

Please tell Opal that I am sorry to hear about her bunny, but that I miss her dearly ! I can't believe your management won't help you with the mover's... it really isn't your fault you have to move so why should you pay for the consequences?

Original Punk J said...

Hey Elena! And hey TJ again!

Haven't gotten to talk to you in ages, Elena. How's everything? Smack the kids today? :D

A star would be great, PH, and that thought about your brother looking down on you is wonderful. I know he is. Right after my dad died, when I'd go to the cemetery, the wind would blow while I was talking to him. I always have thought that was him, talking back. :)

elena said...

*HUG* right back, Paperheart. It's great to see you here.

toujours said...

hi elena. :)

paperheart, i think the star is a beautiful idea, and you could put in the lyrics on a scroll that winds around the star.

a memorial tattoo is such a lovely idea. :)

JocelynHolly said...

It means alot to me to have everyone's input! *hug*

I really missed the familiar family atmosphere of this blog, it's amazing to see Elena and everyone here as well!

Toujours. I really like that idea, I want to try to sketch it out, but my drawings dont usually turn out how the images in my mind look. :/

ergoproxy said...

hello elena!!!


PH I think you should get some lyrics, the idea of a star, and look for a font you really like and go see a tattoo artist and tell them what you want to do
I just googled star tattoos and there are a lot of possibilities

you like simple, graphic, gothic, feminine?

where about's do you want it? Maybe

Original Punk J said...

I will definitely tell Opal, PH. She has a new blog, so if you'd like to go peek at it, just click her name. She usually leaves comments in the AMs. (There are pics of Logan, and some of L with her new hair.)

Wendy, if money allows, L and I will be going to the reception/party niece J and nephew-in-law J are having in October. (Yes, her name starts with J, and so does his! We now have 7 "J" names in the family!)

Anon616 said...

Hi Elena!!! How are you? How's my boy Jake?

It sounds like he had it right, Paper. The star story is beautiful!

How about a star with wings? Or an angel holding one bright star?

ergoproxy said...

a good artist will be able to draw up ideas for you, and you can tweak it until you get what you like

toujours said...

you can loook in clip art books, paperheart, especially for images of scrolls, and ergo told me about a great tattoo idea website that you could look through too -- tattoojohnny. your sketch doesn't have to be perfect though, as long as it conveys what you want to the tattoo artist, and then they can draw up the design and make it exactly perfect for you. :)

ergoproxy said...

star and scroll

anything like that?
I think it should look a bit softer than that though

elena said...

Hi TJ, Wendy, J and Ergo

Actually Flighty just left (taking a huge box of stuff she "just had to have" with her.

Jake is fine. He's playing with his new stuffed animal right now.

Stormy just got back from a weekend trip.

Other than that things are same old same old

Well, it's been great chatting with you all a bit again!

Paper: It's always so good (and such a treat these days) to "see" you!!!! I miss you and all those wonderful hugs you give!!! Please don't stay away so long! Take extra good care of yourself, love!!!

That goes for all of you!

ergoproxy said...

thank you BC!!
nice to see you

PH www.tattoojohnny.com is a good place to browse, I'm just looking now and some star ones are really pretty, all sorts of styles

JocelynHolly said...

Ergo; I would like something simple, bright, and feminine. And I would sort of like something on my upper back sweeping over my shoulder, if you can sort of picture that..


And I've looked at the website, but I'm sort of confused by it. lol

I can't keep up with blogger world anymore =/

Original Punk J said...

Goodnight Wendy, great to see you!

Hey BC! Man, it's like Old Home Week tonight. Where've you been?

What kind of new animal does Jake have, Elena? Did Barney finally lose all his parts?

Hi tj, elena, and J, how you've been? I've been mentally distracted lately. How's L and the fur babies?

Hi and goodnight sugarplum, sorry for coming in late. Has Bre left for college already?

I haven't recieved any emails either. I yahoo has been a bitch lately :(

Original Punk J said...

Not doing too badly, BC. L's been having a flare so she's hurting more, having trouble sleeping, all kinds of weird symptoms that fibromyalgia can spring on you. :/

Furbabies are good, thanks! How are your little critters doing?

Anonymous said...

Send my get well wishes to L J. I hope she gets better quickly. Good to hear the furbabies are doing good.

Mines are doing okay, but I have to keep an eye on Bugsy. He gets a bit aggressive at times. Sad to say he won't be staying with us for long. We're giving him away to one of my aunts.

elena said...

Hey BC

Good to see you.

Original Punk J said...

Oh, sorry to hear Bugsy's moving! Is he just too much of a handful, or what?

Goodnight tj, sweet dreams. See you later ergo. Goodnight anon.

J not that but it's due to the fact that no one really has the time to take care of him. Everyone pretty much works, so we thought it'd be good to send him to another family member. He'll be with us for a while until that happens though.

Original Punk J said...

Goodnight TJ, see you tomorrow!

Oh, I see, BC. Well, hopefully your aunt will be able to give him extra love and attention.

I think I'm gonna head for bed too. Goodnight Elena and BC, and to anyone else hanging in the background! Hope everyone has a good one tomorrow.

Goodnight Mayo, sleep well.

Original Punk J said...

Dear SS,

How are you doing, honey? Things going along well in your world? I had a (mostly) quiet day today. Sundays are good for that.

I'm still reading The Wolfman. It moves along really well; just haven't put much reading time into it this weekend. I did some writing tonight as well, which ended up as a blogpost on SP. I've been trying to think of something to put on Bollocks, but the brain, she will not comply. Maybe I'll write another poem. Who knows.

It's supposed to be sort of cool at night this week. No rain for a few days. Let's try to take some star-time, how 'bout?

Goodnight, my baby. I love you.

My heart to yours, always.

xo jen

Mayo

Suddenly I don't feel well. Not sure why but maybe some sleep will help. And tonight I think sleep will come, my girls are back home and the house just feels "right". Hope your house always feels like a home and always feels just right. Take care

Night Mayo

Elena (a visit by you would make this house feel "right" too.) Oh and that's not nagging just stating a fact!

toujours said...

mayo,

the sky is just crowded with stars. there's so much to look at. no shooting stars though, not tonight, but i saw mars, low on the eastern horizon, a sparkling little ruby chip.

what a gift the night sky is.


you know, making those items today, finishing them, that felt good, too. not so much to see that i still had the ability (though that was pretty cool, especially remembering how do to the rolled hem on the altar cloth), but just in the accomplishment. i wanted to get those things made, and i did.

yeah, maybe that dosen't sound too exciting, but in the past, i was the queen of unfinished projects. plans were made, and plans would fade.

i am still pretty distractable (sometimes i think it's my one true skill). wanting to work on those kit items, actually doing so, and finishing them, that gives me a boost, you know? very satisfying.

maybe i'm not such a flibbertigibbet after all. *heh*


anyway, a very good night to you, mayo, and sweet dreams.

ergoproxy said...

Mayo
well I'm another year older and another year wiser, lol some would dispute that! Had a lovely day, and a lovely weekend prior. Now I have to think of things to achieve in the next year, but really , as long as I'm happy and strive to make the people I love, and those around me happy, I'm doing a good job. Hope you can look over your year and feel the same
much love EP xx

SS
"21 today, 21 today, she's got the key to the door, never been 21 before"....well give or take a few years, or maybe double, but who's counting! Not me, you're only as old as the man you feel (or woman, as the case may be) lol Like you said, you only get old when you stop playing, and I think laughing and being happy keep you young at heart, and that is the most important place. Hope you get to laugh and smile every day
lotsa love EP xx

goodnight blogbelieve, see you in my morning

Hiya guys, how are you all?

which bit, miss t? *wink wink*


Naughty naughty *wink wink*


OPJ, I'm feeling much better thanks, almost as good as new. I hope you and OPL are good too. Congrats to your neice.


OPL, you summed it all up nicely. I wish he was found in the bushes. he actually has a special little bush at the beggining of his path that he falls into and bounces back up from when he comes home from the pub.


Ergo, how's the chickies? A huge happy birthday for yesterday sweetie. Did you have a great day?


MJ, they are doing some Dr Who episodes with DT in cartoon form. the pics look good.


Wendy, how's the pink wellies holding up?



Amyranth said...
Mya, I think the kid is cute, but WAY too young. He's still babyfaced too, something tells me his balls haven't even dropped yet. :P


LOL put your drooling tongues awy you guys.


Elena, your truth about mayo pic made me laugh. Very funny.


Wish, I love motorcycle emptiness. carcking song, cracking band. I'm gonna get me their new album this week. I've been putting it off cos I'm a lazy thing and the shops round here don;t have the special deition version I want.


I'm glad you're feeling better, Miss T, and I'm glad you liked the picture of the boys with their grandpa. I love that picture too; so much, in fact, I think I'll post it again. We call his clothes "overalls" here in Tennessee, and although I live in the city, you can go to one of the outlying counties fifteen minutes away from here and see scores of little old grandpas dressed just like him. ^_^


That is such a great picture KOL anon. Overalls eh? But Dungarees is such a great word. You'll have to use it and baffle all your friends.


Paperheart, it was great to see you here again sweetie. I hope you are well. I think the tattoo is a great idea. Have a great birthiday sweetie.


Well guys, I'm off to London tomorrow for a few days break at my Uncles with mum and sis.

It's not the fitness test, just a break.

Catch you all when I get back.

Take care everyone xxxxx

elena said...

Good to see you MissT. Have a fun, safe trip.

Hello to anyone who is here. I'm at work today (a bit late but I'm not going to fire myself).

Hey, it's Monday, that's just how it goes.

Anonymous said...

The night is black
Without a moon.
The air is thick and still.
The vigilantes gather on
The lonely torchlit hill.

Features distorted in the flickering light,
The faces are twisted and grotesque.
Silent and stern in the sweltering night,
The mob moves like demons possesed.
Quiet in conscience, calm in their right,
Confident their ways are best.

The righteous rise
With burning eyes
Of hatred and ill-will.
Madmen fed on fear and lies
To beat and burn and kill.

They say there are strangers who threaten us,
are immigrants and infidels.
They say there is strangeness too dangerous
In our theaters and bookstore shelves.
Those who know what's best for us
Must rise and save us from ourselves.

Quick to judge,
Quick to anger,
Slow to understand
Ignorance and prejudice
And fear walk hand in hand...

Yes indeed!! Goodmorning!

elena said...

Alright Rush!

Oh, I think his balls have dropped.

Those fingers in my hair
That sly come hither stare
That strips my conscience bare
Its witchcraft

And Ive got no defense for it
The heat is too intense for it
What good would common sense for it do

cause its witchcraft, wicked witchcraft
And although, I know, its strictly taboo

When you arouse the need in me
My heart says yes indeed in me
Proceed with what your leading me to

Its such an ancient pitch
But one I wouldnt switch
cause theres no nicer witch than you

Wish you were here said...

MissT, I'm glad you think so. I love them so much, they're amazing. The special edition is pretty cool, hope you get hold of it. And have fun in London, it's been pretty nice the last week or so :).

Good Afternoon, everyone!

Looks like I missed all the chat last night. Oh, well that's what I get for going to bed. :)

Paperheart, it was so good to see you here. What a wonderful thought for the star tattoo. Then you will carry him with you on the outside and the inside.

Elena, have you uncovered any dire secrets from the Mayo Manual? We always joked about needing help with Mayoneese, or taking a class in Mayo 101.

Been listening to the live stream of a local radio station and heard the insperation for:

Beastie Boys' "Sabotage", L.'s Musical Recommendation For The Day

Love that song!

Crap, I keep forgetting stuff.

Zac's not a bad looking guy. A little young, but I can't say much. I think Daniel Radcliffe is mighty fine and I think he just turned 19 or 20 this year.

I was in London in '07 when "Equus" was playing, and Dan was the lead. We were on the second row, at the end, which was right up against the curved stage. The last 20 minutes of the show is him completely nude. At one point he slid across the stage and landed about 2 feet in front of us.

Well!

The play was very good.

WARNING: I am in a link/picture posting mood this evening!


Hello Mayo, SS, Ergo, L and J, Sweetcheeks, MissT, Wish, Amy, Elena, Paper, TJ, all KOL anons, everyone!!!

How are you all today? The most amazing thing happened, here in southeast Louzianna, this morning.

I woke up and opened the backdoor to let Sandy Ann and Tinker Belle out to "potty" and... you're not going to believe this...

IT WAS 68 degrees F!!!!! In August!

I know!!! I was shocked too! I thought I had been transported to some strange ~ and chilly ~ alternate Louzianna. I had an "Outer Limits" moment! I enjoyed it!

I hope the rest of you opened your backdoor (or front door) to a pleasant (and invigorating) surprise or two this morning!

~~~~~~
Bleeding Chaos said...

Hi and goodnight sugarplum, sorry for coming in late. Has Bre left for college already?
~~~~~~

Sweetcheeks: Yes, Bre left for college Friday morning. I miss her; but, I know she's already enjoying college life (from what I've heard, she's enjoying it VERY VERY MUCH)!!!

I still can't believe it though...

~~~Here's her high school graduation photo~~~

I'm sorry to hear about the situation with Bugsy. At least you know he'll have a good, loving home and he'll still be with family!!!

Elena: I'm glad to hear Jake's been good. Or, at least doing good! Did his new toy survive the night/day?

I'm also happy to hear your three 'baby' girls are/were all home!

You're thinking about the Colorado mountains, L is thinking about London (or a nude Daniel Radcliffe *wink*) and I'm thinking about:

~~~~Haiti and St. John!

I actually remember what year that was! It has nothing to do with the dates printed on the bottom of my photos. Of course it doesn't!

;)

Ergo: They do say the third time's a charm. Following that 'logic', perhaps a triple posting is a good omen!

Okay, since I mentioned Father Francis last night, here's that picture he sent!

~~~~Father Francis and his children at the mission in Taiwan.~~~~

Aren't they adorable?!!!

~~~~The dance was a part of their graduation program (as explained here)~~~~

MissT: I'm loving my hot pink wellies!!!! They're working brilliantly! Thank you, MissT!

I'm very to happy to hear you and your lady bits are almost fully recovered. So, does that mean you (and your lady bits) are ready for a more vigorous 'workout'?

Have fun, everyone!!!!

Hugs and Love,
~Namaste~

thank you anima!

I'd really like to be Bob ballard

hello, is there any birthday cake left?

ergoproxy said...

hello TJ

I didn't actually have a cake, here, have some birthday lasagne instead

well, now, that's unique. :)

how are you doing, ergo?

ergoproxy said...

I'm good, tackling cleaning the bathroom today

how are you?

ooh, sounds like a big job.

i'm okay. we had a beautiful day here today, i spent part of it hanging out on the front patio...playing video games. lol

do i know how to enjoy the great outdoors, or what?

ergoproxy said...

haha sounds good

it's like summer here, they are having record high winter temps in our state, then down the bottom of the country they have high winds blizzards!!!

toujours said...

crazy. you know, in every state i've been to, someone will drag out the ol' "if you don't like the weather here, wait five minutes" -- but i really think that's true for the entire world.

weather is weird.

Amyranth said...

I just... I don't even know what to say. This is incredible.

Don't listen to the link without a tissue.

It's Disenchanted on piano, and yeah, I guess I should go to bed now.

ergoproxy said...

seems that way at the moment
like the Crowded House song, "Four Seasons in One Day"

very much so, ergo. duck and cover!

i'll have to click on the link tomorrow at work, amyranth. sweet dreams. :)

ergoproxy said...

I didn't realise how pretty that song was, very different when you hear it like that

thanks Amy, sweet dreams


TJ , in iTunes you can hear 30 sec bits of all the songs on the muse album too if you want a sneak peek

toujours said...

ooh, i'll try that too, ergo. :)

ergoproxy said...

wow that millionaire guy who they said killed his model ex-wife seems to have committed suicide.
And they ruled Michael Jackson's death a homicide, they listed the drugs that doctor gave him, my goodness, how did he think that was going to be ok in one persons body?

ergoproxy said...

(I am watching Inside Edition)

toujours said...

i don't keep up with those news stories, ergo. it's weird to think that you watch inside edition! ah, the wonders of global television.

ergoproxy said...

there isn't much on I like about this time of the early afternoon, so I often channel surf and stop on anything that looks interesting

I just saw an ad for a reality show about putting people on fake reality shows...what'll they think of next!

toujours said...

i think it would be interesting to have a reality show about making a reality show. that would be an eye-opener, i suspect.

well, time for me to get some shut-eye. have a good rest of the day ergo, and sweet dreams.

ergoproxy said...

sweet dreams Tj , have a good tuesday

toujours said...

mayo,

well, it seems i ran out of steam today. don't know what happened, but i guess you gotta pay for the good days, huh?

but it truly was a beautiful day today. it was impossible to stay indoors. at one point i was watching a butterfly feeding on some flowers. it was so tattered, scarred and missing chunks of wing, yet it was nimble. i watched that butterfly for a long time, standing as still as i could so as not to spook it.

it made me think of ergo's butterfly, and how even when our spirits are bedraggled we can maybe still be beautiful, too.



good night, mayo. may tomorrow be a very full and satisfying day for you. those are some of the best, don't you think?

ergoproxy said...

cat found big ass snake in the yard, I hate that!

elena said...

Mayo

Hey dude, what’s up? Exciting things happening in your life? Did you win the lottery? Were you abducted by aliens? Elected pres of country? Maybe you’ve been placed in the Witness Protection Program. Yeah, I’m totally wondering where you’ve disappeared to. However, I’m not gonna worry about it. I’m sure you’re fine.

I was reading back a bit and saw that Ergo was talking about a reality show about a reality show. It made me laugh because just tonight I was watching Joe Schmo 2 on DVD. I never saw the first one but let me tell you the 2nd is fuckin’ hilarious. I don’t want to say much about it in case you haven’t seen it but dude, you really need to watch it if you haven’t. Some parts made me laugh so hard. Like the elimination ceremonies. – The women come foreword so that “the bachelor” can give them the ultimate gift “Lean foreword and he will give you a pearl necklace.” Or when the guys come foreword with their candles it’s “Present your wick so she can dip it in her flame of love.” Holy crap just thinking about the falcon twist cracks me up. Believe me this DVD is a must see. I just realized how weird that all sounds but just trust me, I really think you’d find it very funny.

Other than that I’ve got nothing to say. I’ve got a sink full of dishes, a dryer full of laundry, and books to mail. Oh well, take care.


Night Mayo

goodnight elena, sweet dreams

a lovely quote anon

ergoproxy said...

Bobby Vee

They say that you're a runaround lover
Though you say it isn't so
But if you put me down for another
I'll know, believe me, I'll know

'cause the night has a thousand eyes
And a thousand eyes can't help but see if you are true to me
So remember when you tell those little white lies
That the night has a thousand eyes

You say that you're at home when you phone me
And how much you really care
Though you keep telling me that you're lonely
I'll know if someone is there

'cause the night has a thousand eyes
And a thousand eyes can't help but see if you are true to me
So remember when you tell those little white lies
That the night has a thousand eyes

One of these days you're gonna be sorry
'cause your game I'm gonna play
And you'll find out without really tryin'
Each time that my kisses stray

'cause the night has a thousand eyes
And a thousand eyes will see me too
And no matter what I do
I could never disguise all my little white lies
'cause the night has a thousand eyes

So remember when you tell those little white lies
That the night has a thousand eyes

lotsa love EP xx

Good Afternoon, everyone!

Only in for a moment, today is serious cleaning in my bedroom, throwing out stuff, clean behind shit, arrange clothes, etc., etc.

It would be easier just to find some C-4 and start over.

Amy, Thanks for that link. "Disenchanted" is such a great song, and the piano version was beautiful. I'm very glad Mikey kept on until they put it on the record, it's one of my favorites. And I hope you get some rest and don't have to work too hard today.

B.C., I'm sorry to hear Bugsy is leaving, but at least he will be with someone you know and know will take care of and love him. Bunnies are such social creatures.

TJ, Your're right about the weather. We here that a lot too! I remember hearing "If you've ever had the heat and the air conditioner on both in the same day, you must be in East Tennessee."

Wendy, Bre is just beautiful! I can see where she gets her looks. I looked through the rest of your album and you have a very handsome family. Is Bre getting settled in?

Elena, will try to call you later today, if I don't get sucked into the room like Luke in the garbage compactor!

Anon and Elena, lovely quotes. Thank you. One of mine is:


"The night wraps me in a cocoon, comforting me, even as it shuts the day from my skin. It is both my captor and my protector. I crave the light, but I need the dark."


That was from my journal I kept during the worst days of my illness, (the fibromyalgia and CMP) before medications were ironed out to bring the pain and fatigue to a functionable level. The pain affected every part of me, of my emotions, my body, how I saw things. I still have days, but it is so much better now.

Have a great day, and be safe.

~~~Well I'm searchin' for this feelin'

Oh I need that cure, there ain't no doubt

Oh, well it feels so good
Up and down and in and out, let's make this understood...

I thought a little LYNCH MOB (Wicked Sensation) would go perfectly with yesterday's "Witch Hunt"! (Thanks RUSH anon!!!)

Hello Mayo, SS, L (and J), Amy, Mya, Martha, Ergo, Elena, TJ, KOL anon(s), Wish, Anima, Paper, Sweetcheeks, Possum, everyone!!!

How are you all today? It's another gorgeous 'fall like' day, here!!! What a rare treat!!!

I hope you're all experiencing some gorgeousness and enjoying a rare treat (or two), as well!!!

L: Thank you, so much!!!! Bre is getting settled in very well. It seems Sunday night was "movie" night and she and room mate spent it in the boys dorm. Ummm hmmmm....

It also seems their "circle of friends" has grown from seven to twenty!

She does say she has way too much free time on her hands! It seems she's finished with classes by 1:15 all but 2 days a week. And, her "latest" day ends at 3:15!

I asked her if she could take more classes; but, she can't. She's already meeting the 16 (or whatever) credit maximum for a Freshman. Well, at least she has a lot people to do things with. Ummm... wait...

;)

~~~~~"The night wraps me in a cocoon, comforting me, even as it shuts the day from my skin. It is both my captor and my protector. I crave the light, but I need the dark."~~~~~

That is absolutely beautiful, L. I'm so glad your doctors were able to 'iron out' those medications and provide you with some relief. I just wish they could do more for you.

*huge hug*

Ergo: I shall pass on your good wishes to Bre as well!!! Thank you!!!

Enjoy what remains of the day, everyone!

Hugs and Love,

Shucks! I (almost) forgot to post the rest of lyrics if anyone would like to sing along with me and Lynch Mob!

Here ya'll go:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Wicked Sensation
by Lynch Mob

Music: Lynch
Lyrics: Logan


Well I'm searchin' for this feelin'
That's crawlin' in my veins
I'm on the inside, i wanna get out
Oh I need that cure, there ain't no doubt

Oh, well it feels so good
Up and down and in and out, let's make this understood
Oh, 'cause I'm comin' on for you now

I got that wicked sensation
That's crawlin' all over me
I got that wicked sensation
You know that's all I ever need
When I get down on my knees
Gotta give in, gotta put it out

Well there's no reason
For the way you make me feel
It must be pure desire
But my soul, you know it's burnin' like a flame
My heart just fills with fire

Oh, well it feels so good, up and down and in and out
Let's make this understood
Oh, 'cause I'm comin' on for you now

I got that wicked sensation
That's crawlin' in my veins
I got that wicked sensation
You know that's all i ever need
When I get down on my knees

Gotta give in, gotta put it out, oh shake my soul

Oh, well it feels so good
Up and down and in and out
Let's make this understood
'Cause I'm comin' on for you now

I got that wicked sensation
That's crawlin' all over me
I got that wicked sensation
You know that's all I ever need
When I get down on my knees
I got that wicked sensation
Wicked, wicked, wicked

How you shake this poor boy's soul, oh, how you shake it girl
How you do me in, how you do me in, oh, it's my soul, oh, it's my soul
It burns, it burns it yearns, it's gotta come out, it's gotta come out
Come out, come out, come out, come out, come out
Oh you know that devil's in my soul, well

I must sing that one. I simply must (and dance too)!

~~~Lynch Mob ~ No Bed Of Roses!!!!~~~


Martha: See! It (still) really doesn't take much!!!

:P

As always, the lyrics for those who wish to sing (and dance) along:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You made your first mistake
The way you let me down
You're always on the make honey
Fire burning in my soul
It cuts me deep inside
Talking like you just don't care
You know that ain't right

'Cause I've had enough of walking out that door
I realize you'll never change

Never said It'd be no bed of roses
You know all through the love an'
Pain you keep me hanging on
You keep me hanging on
All out of reasons of you wasting my
Time and takin' my pride
To me you'll never change

You were the one to blame
You set my soul to flame
Comin' on like potion that shows me love
An' brngs me pain
Tearin' out my heart inside is how you
Get your kicks
But I' just your lover junkie
Girl I need your fix

'Cause I had enough of walking out that door
I realize you'll never change

Never said It'd be no bed of roses
You know all through the love an'
Pain you keep me hanging on
You keep me hanging on
All out of reasons of you wasting my
Time and takin' my pride
To me you'll never change

'Cause I had enough of walking out that door
I realize that you'll never change

Never said It'd be no bed of roses
You know all through the love an'
Pain you keep me hanging on
You keep me hanging on
All out of reasons of you wasting my
Time and takin' my pride
To me you'll never change

Did he bring it in the house after he caught it? O_O

ergoproxy said...

hi Amy

oh no, it would have been about 5 foot long, he'd never have picked it up (it was my smaller cat) He was all fluffed up and jumping around it, I grabbed him as it took off across the yard
very likely a brown, venomous as are most things here, lol
very glad it's gone now, was in the garden bed, we'll have to be careful, warm weather is brining them out.

EEEEP! Snakes!!!! Snakes are not allowed in my house. Neither are tarantulas or other creepy, crawly, slimey things. Sorry!

Prayer is when you talk to God. Meditation is when you become quiet and listen to God. You've learned how to talk and ask well. Time to learn how to listen and hear, because God has been answering you.

Like a million little doorways
All the choices we made
All the stages we passed through
All the roles we played

For so many different directions
Our separate paths might have turned
With every door that we opened
Every bridge that we burned

Somehow we find each other
Through all that masquerade
Somehow we found each other
Somehow we have stayed
In a state of grace

I don't believe in destiny
Or the guiding hand of fate
I don't believe in forever
Or love as a mystical state
I don't believe in the stars or the planets
Or angels watching from above
But I believe there's a ghost of a chance we can find someone to love
And make it last...

Like a million little crossroads
Through the back streets of youth
Each time we turn a new corner
A tiny moment of truth

For so many different connections
Our separate paths might have made
With every door that we opened
Every game we played

Somehow we find each other
Through all that masquerade
Somehow we found each other
Somehow we have stayed
In a state of grace

I don't believe in destiny
Or the guiding hand of fate
I don't believe in forever
Or love as a mystical state
I don't believe in the stars or the planets

Glad you liked the taffy. How are you doing today?

I'm good

yep the crackerjacks are there, I'll wait till everyone is home to try it though

it's seeds and grains that are the problem, processed stuff is ok,
I'll send you a leaflet from customs when I send your parcel (yep I have had stuff since easter, terrible aren't I!!)
We have pretty strict rules as we are isolated from a lot of things other countries have so they are really careful on anything that might bring in a disease or insect or anything

Here's a couple more clips from The Big Bang Theory if you guys want to check it out.

Our New Friend, Ironman

Sheldon's Smile

Sheldon's smile is...interesting, to say the least. LOL

i don't think i've seen the show, l., but i'll definitely take a look at the clips.

ergo, someday, you will have to experience jiffy pop. :)

Gotcha, Ergo. We do here as well, no fruits or vegtables can be brought in, and I never really thought about grains, but you can't bring a plant either, so it makes sense.

I remember having an apple on the plane when we were coming back from the Caymans and the flight attendent said I just had to make sure I ate it before I got off the plane or leave it there in the trash.
