While I’m quite sure some feminist somewhere will find the definition quite misogynistic of me, and they may very well be right, I’m gonna step off the PC train and use it anyway.

While I’ve loved the song, and had it on my iPod for quite sometime, the version of Maroon 5’s “If I Never See Your Face Again” featuring Rihanna is actually better than the original.

I’ve also added “Fall for You” by Secondhand Serenade, cuz ya know I don’t have enough emo music.

Lifehouse - First Time.    Pretty much says all that needs to be said.   Ah Life.

We’re both looking for something
That we’ve been afraid to find
It’s easier to be broken
It’s easier to hide

Looking at you,holding my breath,
For once in my life,I’m scared to death,
I’m taking a chance,letting you inside.

I’m feeling alive all over again,
As deep as the scar that’s under my skin
Like being in love, she says
For the first time
Well maybe I’m wrong,
But I’m feeling right where I belong
With you tonight
Like being in love
Can feel for the first time

The world that I see inside you
Waiting to come to life
Waking me up to dreaming
Reality in your eyes

Looking at you,
Holding my breath,
For once in my life
I’m scared to death,
I’m taking a chance,
Letting you inside.

I’m feeling alive all over again
As deep as the scar that’s under my skin
Like being in love, she said, for the first time
Maybe I’m wrong, I’m feeling right
Where I belong with you tonight
Like being in love to feel for the first time

We’re crashing
Into the unknown
We’re lost in this
But it feels like home

I’m feeling alive all over again
As deep as the scar that’s under my skin
Like being in love, she said, for the first time
Maybe I’m wrong, I’m feeling right
Where I belong with you tonight
Like being in love can feel for the first time

Like being in love she said for the first time
Like being in love can feel for the first time

Sigh.. Disappointing to say the least. First three songs are great… after that, not so much.

Ok so here I go… I’ve been struggling with these thoughts for a while now but I feel I must come clean.

I love David Cook’s version of “Always Be My Baby”.

There! I said it!

While avoiding Monday in the usual way I do, with the company of a few Sunday night regulars at The Cottage,  Ann said something very interesting.   She said there is a point where the worst thing in the world can happen to you and after that, nothing seems as important.

While contemplating things lately I wonder if the same theory can apply to love.   They say you never quite love again like you’re first love.   Love, that cheeky bastard.

To go along with all of this I’ve been listening to the song “How I Go” by Yellowcard, pretty much on repeat non-stop.  I <3 it.  There is one lyric in beginning of the song that stands out for me right now.

i could tell you of a man not so tall
who said life’s a circus and so we are small
tell you of a girl that i saw
i froze in the moment and she changed it all

And as I sit here, trying once again to make sense of the course my heart has taken me, I wonder where to go next.  How to move past this one.  Why I have to move past this one.

So last night under the guise of dinner and drinks the Nalz and the Holz threw, with help from the <3 faces,  a surprise birthday party for me at their place.    They gathered all my friends and family around and gave me a good surprise.   The party was a BLAST.  Nalz took care of the food, mama got a great cake for me and all went spectactular.

28 is starting out pretty damn good!

Grace Kelly really has nothing to do with this blog, it’s just the name of the song I’m listening to at the moment.

After the most recent epic failure of my love life I was expecting to react in the same way I had in the past, but when my first test came along last week, I found that I didn’t “Relapse” as I normally would.   Oddly enough I’m ok with everything.

Strange feeling.  When the hell did I mature?

I’ve been a big fan if “Happy Ending” By MIKA but it wasn’t until today I really listened to any of his other music, I heard “lollipop” today and I grabbed it, the rest of the album (”Life in Cartoon Motion”) soon followed..  The variety and originality of alot of the songs reminds me of Queen a bit…. a great new addition

An excert from Weezer’s “El Scorcho”.   I had forgotten about this song for a mintue.   LOL to music and my life =) <3

How stupid is it? I can’t talk about it
I gotta sing about it and make a record of my heart
How stupid is it? Won’t you give me a minute
Just come up to me and say hello to my heart
How stupid is it?
For all I know you want me too
And maybe you just don’t know what to do
Or maybe you’re scared to say: “I’m falling for you”

I wish I could get my head out of the sand
‘Cause I think we’d make a good team
And you would keep my fingernails clean
But that’s just a stupid dream that I won’t realize
‘Cause I can’t even look in your eyes
Without shakin’, and I ain’t fakin’
I’ll bring home the turkey if you bring home the bacon.

I’m a lot like you so please
Hello, I’m here, I’m waiting
I think I’d be good for you
And you’d be good for me

LMAO <3  Life.
