i suck at this cold thing

so i was walking across the way to the church when it dawned on me i forgot my fucking jacket again. oh the wonder that is my brain. the good news is, after freezing my happy little hiney for a few minutes outside in our lovely 32 degree weather made me nice and toasty once i got back into my 60 degree office. well that and dancing around to the Yeah Yeah Yeah's helped.

i want a cigarette.

i think i'll go make some coffee.

so we had thanksgiving dinner last night. oh how i love my family... we have thanksgiving whenever the hell my dad feels like it just so long as it is after the official date and this is somehow my doing... one day i will understand them. so anyway... we were about to sit down to dinner when my mom suddenly remembered "hey drea has those four bottles of wine she bought the other day...." and so began a very interesting evening where most of my family said too much and i woke up late this morning, remind me to send a thank you note robert mondavi. its still strange to me to sit around and have a glass (or several) of wine with my parents... i have always known my mom to be a pretty cool and kind of crazy person, but i got to know my dad a little more... like what it was like when he was in the army, some strange stories about when he was a sharpshooter... it was nice, we talked more last night than i think we have in years... haha maybe i should get my dad drunk more often.

wow none of that made sense.

Hand in my pocket

I'm broke but I'm happy
I'm poor but I'm kind
I'm short but I'm healthy, yeah
I'm high but I'm grounded
I'm sane but I'm overwhelmed
I'm lost but I'm hopeful baby
What it all comes down to
Is that everything's gonna be fine fine fine
Cuz I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is giving a high five
I feel drunk but I'm sober
I'm young and I'm underpaid
I'm tired but I'm working, yeah
I care but I'm restless
I'm here but I'm really gone
I'm wrong and I'm sorry baby
What it all comes down to
Is that everything's gonna be quite alright
Cuz I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is flicking a cigarette
What it all comes down to
Is that I haven't got it all figured out just yet
Cuz I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is giving the peace sign
I'm free but I'm focused
I'm green but I'm wise
I'm hard but I'm friendly baby
I'm sad but I'm laughing
I'm brave but I'm chicken shit
I'm sick but I'm pretty baby
What it all boils down to
Is that no one's really got it figured out just yet
Cuz I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is playing the piano
What it all comes down to my friends
Is that everything's just fine fine fine
Cuz I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is hailing a taxi cab.....

Title: Suddenly I See

Her face is a map of the world
Is a map of the world
You can see she's a beautiful girl
She's a beautiful girl
And everything around her is a silver pool of light
The people who surround her feel the benefit of it
It makes you calm
She holds you captivated in her palm
Suddenly I see
This is what I wanna be
Suddenly I see
Why the hell it means so much to me
I feel like walking the world
Like walking the world
You can hear she's a beautiful girl
She's a beautiful girl
She fills up every corner like she's born in black and white
Makes you feel warmer when you're trying to remember
What you heard
She likes to leave you hanging on a wire
Suddenly I see
And she's taller than most
And she's looking at me
I can see her eyes looking from a page in a magazine
Oh she makes me feel like I could be a tower
A big strong tower
She got the power to be
The power to give
The power to see
Suddenly I see

Damn that coffee smells wonderful.

aww im out of creamer... :(

Hey!
Don’t touch kid, sleep with the lights on
Touch kid, how you surprise me
Now roll kid, knock your body off!
You’re something like a phenomena
Something like an astronoma
Roll kid, rock your body off!
Something like a phenomena, baby
You’re something like a phenomena
Something like a phenomena, baby
You’re gonna get your body off ....

not nearly as good without music behind it... hmmmm

Title: Warrior

When it’s missing then you want it more
It isn’t right
Turning, turning out the door
And back to this
Leave it like it was before
And let me out
Must’ve been the end of the story
Giving it all, giving it all away
You’re gonna wake up someone
Well study it all
The wings, the crowd, your face
You’re gonna end up like one
Well, trouble at home
Travel the way you say
“The road don’t like me”
Travel away
Travel it all away
“The road’s gonna end on me”
Man, they like me
‘Cause I’m a warrior, a warrior
Stand on my feet
Dance the warrior, the warrior
Where would I be?
I’d be a warrior, a warrior
Now the strangers have caught on
And they’re riding in the backseat
The river’s gonna wash all
Yeah the river it spoke to me
It told me I’m small
And I swallowed it down
If I make it all I’m a make you want me
Hey!

ok so lets face it its the riffs and the drums that make the yeah yeah yeah's special but oh how i love them, my new haircut kind of reminds me of her... only im not nearly as hot.


damn i have a plush job, i've just wasted like an hour.
