i dreamt i saw you walking
up a hillside in the snow
casting shadows on the winter sky
as you stood there counting crows
one for sorrow, two for joy,
three for girls, and four for boys,
five for silver, six for gold, and
seven for a secret never to be told

there's a bird that nests inside you
sleeping underneath your skin
when you open up your wings to speak
i wish you'd let me in

from "a murder of one" ~ counting crows
Don't let Mexican Train be misunderstood

These last few days have really not been a lot to write about, but i see the Whazzup server has some issues . . . my pictures are all gone! i will get them re-linked in a few, so keep your pants on! Know why? `Cause "i'm a cucumber, i'm a cucumber, please don't take me to the pickle farm!"

Well, i can't remember much of Friday . . . i spent some time at my parent's with Brat and then went to the bookstore and bought a book of world myths and legends, The secret Garden and The Vagina Monologues. The myths are diluted but still make interesting reading, i have read Roni a chapter a night of T.S.G., and i devoured T.V.M. in an hour and a half. It was wonderful. Personally i think everyone should have to read it. i'd like to see it become required in school, but i sincerely doubt it'll happen. It didn't change my life, but it has healed a few spots in me and really made me think about some of the answers i have given to Roni. Maybe we need to sit back down and re-discuss a few things. She has been in some ugly situations and survived, she deserves a more open, honest answer. She deserves the protection of the truth and freedom from fear. Dammit, she deserves a better mom. One with a spine. i feel so unworthy when she wakes me up in the middle of the night with her nightmares and i'm so grumpy. i try, really i do.

We came back to the house after the bookstore and Chinese food to play Mexican Train with my family and Brat's friend, April. We had a lot of fun the first two hands, but as tradition goes around there, we played the third, or 'BITCH' hand. The hand that turns everyone mean and promotes unhappiness and much ugly-making words. My family is weird. Did i tell you that this is a domino game? It is. Look it up, it's really fun!

i will put Saturday in a new entry to prevent all the harping about the long, boring entries, K?

i'd like to recommend "Alive" by Pearl Jam
and "Please Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood" by The Animals

Actually, i'd like to hear K.D.Lang sing that last one . . .
Ooohhhh . . . i LOVE her voice!
