Smile Divine

If you like cool fade effects, great graphics and good music…check out Smile Divines site which has samples of their new demo, Smart and Horny. Roger, the guitarist is sounding great and they just got a new bass player which really helps bring out the sound of the drums. I personally think they are more hard rock with a little punk influence.. Tom’s voice is getting better.  My favorite so far is “Soon to Smile” although “This is for Lover’s” sounds more like some of their original songs Fantastic Automatic. I might have more favorites soon..as I waiting for a copy of their demo CD from their manager who said they should be playing live somewhere soon..can’t wait to see them play live

The Green Dog

1. I love you not because of who you are, but because of who I am when I am with you. (My mom said she had this inscribed on my step-father’s watch when they were married – which is totally cool)


2. No man or woman is worth your tears, and the one who is, won’t make you cry.  (i think i need to remember this)


3. Just because someone doesn’t love you the way you want them to, doesn’t mean they don’t love you with all they have. (i know..sometimes people are only meant to be friends)


4. A true friend is someone who reaches for your hand and touches your heart.(see #3)


5. The worst way to miss someone is to be sitting right beside them knowing you can’t have them. (i completely agree..it makes it harder to let go)


6. Never frown, even when you are sad, because you never know who is falling in love with your smile.


7. To the world you may be one person, but to one person you may be the world.


8. Don’t waste your time on a man/woman, who isn’t willing to waste their time on you.


9. Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people before meeting the right one, so that when we finally meet the person, we will know how to be grateful. (question for god or whoever…when am I going to stop meeting the wrong people?)


10. Don’t cry because it is over, smile because it happened.


11. There’s always going to be people that hurt you so what you have to do is keep on trusting and just be more careful about who you trust next time around. (easier said than done)


12. Make yourself a better person and know who you are before you try and know someone else and expect them to know you.


13. Don’t try so hard, the best things come when you! least expect them to. (this is my new objective..stop trying so hard and see what happens)


REMEMBER: WHATEVER HAPPENS, HAPPENS FOR A REASON.

Random Music

I get this single serving ads from mp3.com and usually the music isn’t worth listening too but tonight this band was worth listening to.. a combination of blues and rock..good combination – perfect music for the end of a long week:  Joe Bonamassa

Thunderstorm

The rainstorm last night was beautiful..did you hear the thunderstorm? It was like the whole sky was splitting in two and roaring in the early morning hours.


My cats were terrified of the noise but when they are scared they come and snuggle up with me..which is a bonus when you’re cold.


It must have been a beautiful sight..if it wasn’t at 2 in the morning, I would have gotten up to see the roaring sky and the belting rain.

Random Thoughts

Random thoughts popping up in my head tonight..relaxed enough to write..hmmm…


Random Thought #1..work was better today..this isn’t funny but my boss got knocked in the head by something in our warehouse and had to go to the emergency room..I’m glad he is ok but not incredibly sorry that it happened..what goes around comes around..the reason being – is that my back is out, I can’t feel the from my waist down..feels like pins and needles everywhere or frostbite and he could care less..just wants me in the office at 9am…I really should be home in bed resting..and definetly shouldn’t be driving considering I can sort of feel my feet (they are heavy)…what really sucks..I was exercising when I did this to myself.


Random Thought #2 – if you like punk music…you’ve got to check out this new band…Smile Divinetheir music is getting better and I think they are going to play live soon.


Random Thought #3 – I wonder how Sole Redemption is doing…haven’t heard if they have a website yet or have gotten any gigs or started their demo…if anyone has any news (you know who you are)…let me know..I can’t wait to hear you play live.

Weblogs on TV

Saw something interesting on TV last night..on the show “Judging Amy” as I was half listening to it and half talking to someone online…I heard them mention a weblog..first time for everything. I know that when Cisco introduced their new IP phones a couple of years back, they were everywhere on TV and in the movies.. are weblogs are going mainstream? …just an interesting observation..up until a couple of months ago, I’d never heard of them but then again I probably never paid that much attention to the whole concept (alot of my friends tell me that I’m in my own world alot and just don’t pay attention to people or things) however I’m very happy that I was introduced to the concept..its opened up possibilities that I never imaged..a place to share my opinions, stories and just my daily life with the outside world..(and its not that I live in my own world – its just I usually have a million thoughts going on at once that its sometimes distracting to pay attention 🙂 ) So I wonder will I now start seeing weblogs on every TV show..or at least the more serious ones…will they start popping up in movies too…will have to wait and see

Lessons in English

Truly my day started out beautiful, the angel was an inspiration. I wasn’t still hurt from last night’s conversation probably because I have this weblog to write out my feelings and I was just me (I was a little frustrated and rushed but that’s just me)

 

Then I got to work..burned out and tired of playing the games – part two happened today. Here’s the ironic part – lessons in english: if my boss is going to use big words like ironic to describe something I did  – my boss might just want to make sure that he is using them right – considering I’m a english major and I love linguistics.

 

definition of ironic: 1. The use of words to express something different from and often opposite to their literal meaning. b. An expression or utterance marked by a deliberate contrast between apparent and intended meaning. c. A literary style employing such contrasts for humorous or rhetorical effect. 2. Incongruity between what might be expected and what actually occurs

 

definition of paradoxical: 1. A seemingly contradictory statement that may nonetheless be true 2. One exhibiting inexplicable or contradictory aspects 3. An assertion that is essentially self-contradictory, though based on a valid deduction from acceptable premises 4. A statement contrary to received opinion

In the pain of hurt comes the truth of what I really want

Yes, I’m hurting right now. Another guy just wants to be friends and see what happens. Maybe it just that we live too far apart. Maybe something will happen then again maybe not.


But I realized what I want from a relationship..what I’m looking for…..


I want someone that I can share my feelings with, someone that I’m totally attracted to sexually, someone that I feel comfortable enough with to share intimate sexual thoughts, someone that I feel comfortable enough with to share this weblog with, someone that can be my best friend and my lover, someone I trust, someone that wants to grow in a relationship and see where it leads…no matter how far apart we are….
