Here comes the sun and I say, it's alright =)

Song of My Life (At this moment)

"Livin' Part of Life" by Eric Church

I woke up early this morning
and I'm already running late
There's a list of things long as my arm I wanna get done today
Is it Tuesday, is it Wednesday
they're running into each other
Somebody tell me, when is my day
Man this life is sure
So tomorrow I'm taking me fishin'
hang a sign on the door of my life
tell the world that I've gone missing
and I wont' be back for awhile
I'm so tired of only wishin'
I could leave my trouble behind
I wanna be front porch rockin'
with a big sun droppin' and a blue sky
kick back and get high on the living part of life!

They say to keep your spot on the ladder
gotta keep that money rolling in
I've been putting in my time
and I've build up a pretty good day
I'm gonna spend some
maybe waste some
before tomorrow comes and I wind up dead
Yeah so tomorrow I'm taking me fishin'
hang a sign on the door of my life
tell the world that I've gone missing
and I wont' be back for awhile
I'm so tired of only wishin'
I could leave my trouble behind
I wanna be front porch rockin'
with a big sun droppin' and a blue sky
kick back and get high on the living part of life!

I wanna be front porch rockin'
with a big sun droppin' and a blue sky
kick back and get high on the living part of life!

Spring Break

This chick is on Spring Break! Heck ya! So you know what I have to do today? Whatever I want =) That is a good feeling that I haven't had in a long time. Okay, so it will only last a week. But it is a week well needed.

Camping season is in 2 months! Man I can't wait. At this point, I don't even care that the North Fork is a tropical rain forest and we get soaked in May. Why? Because I would rather be standing in the pouring rain on the North Fork next to the fire without a care in the world than be here right now. Wow. I sound crazy. But it's true. I just love it up there. I love the scenery, the smells, the river, the beer that gets drank at noon, the company, the atmosphere. And shortly after May passes the sun comes out and it is beautiful weather up there! Ahh summer. That is what I'm day dreaming about today.

So let's see, what shall I do today? Right now I'm eating Egos, drinking coffee, and blogging. Then I'll probably head to the gym for my Tuesday workout. Come home, shower, probably go have lunch with Lacie. Then if this sun continues to shine her and I will probably walk the bridges, followed by day 2 of cheerleading tryouts. OH and then Nathan and I were invited to dinner with his two bosses. I'm anxious for this dinner. It is with the owner of the company Nathan works for and his immediate supervisor. Nathan just got his journeyman's license so I'm assuming this is a celebration dinner. I told Nathan he has to be good news otherwise they wouldn't be taking us out to dinner but then he reminded me of the movie Jerry McGuire. So, we'll see! And that's my day. So, OCD me has a plan on a day I'm not supposed to have a plan. HA HA HA. Oh to be type A.

Babble

When I lose my mind I like to rhyme...

It's 10:00, I can't sleep
and this stress I can't keep.
If I keep living this way
my mind just might stray.
They say you have to go to college
Am I really paying for this knowledge?
My eyes are hurting, my heads a blur
I look around and there you were.
Right here with me in between
this life would make some feel green.
Yet unsatisfied I manage to be
Oh what spoiled little me.
Shamefully dissatisfied
My life needs modified.

I'm Done

Whoa...Monday hit like a ton of bricks!


Can this week be over with already?

The Reason I Love My Dog

"A dog has no use for fancy cars or big homes or designer clothes. Status symbol means nothing to him. A waterlogged stick will do just fine. A dog judges others not by their color or creed or class but by who they are inside. A dog doesn't care if you are rich or poor, educated or illiterate, clever or dull. Give him your heart and he will give you his. It was really quite simple, and yet we humans, so much wiser and more sophisticated, have always had trouble figuring out what really counts and what does not. As I wrote that farewell column to Marley, I realized it was all right there in front of us, if only we opened our eyes. Sometimes it took a dog with bad breath, worse manners, and pure intentions to help us see."
— John Grogan

Rain

I opened my eyes
And looked up at the rain,
And it dripped in my head
And flowed into my brain,
And all that I hear as I lie in my bed
Is the slishity-slosh of the rain in my head.

I step very slowly,
I walk very slow,
I can't do a handstand--
I might overflow,
So pardon the wild crazy thing I just said--
I'm just not the same since there's rain in my head.
