The challenge is to take the daily writing prompt here and spend a minute or less writing the first thing that comes to mind. so here goes:
imind: the process by which one surrenders all logical thought and emotional response to a situation over to the specific song being played on one's ipod at the time.
New SOTD because i really miss Long Train Running (John, come and visit us!!), this is a beautiful song AND right now i really wish i could just get on a bike and ride away from my life:
Roll Me Away - Bob Seger
Took a look down a westbound road, right away I made my choice Headed out to my big two-wheeler, I was tired of my own voice Took a bead on the northern plains and just rolled that power on
Twelve hours out of Mackinaw City stopped in a bar to have a brew Met a girl and we had a few drinks and I told her what I'd decided to do She looked out the window a long long moment then she looked into my eyes She didn't have to say a thing, I knew what she was thinkin'
Roll, roll me away, won't you roll me away tonight I too am lost, I feel double-crossed and I'm sick of what's wrong and what's right We never even said a word, we just walked out and got on that bike And we rolled And we rolled clean out of sight
We rolled across the high plains Deep into the mountains Felt so good to me Finally feelin' free
Somewhere along a high road The air began to turn cold She said she missed her home I headed on alone
Stood alone on a mountain top, starin' out at the Great Divide I could go east, I could go west, it was all up to me to decide Just then I saw a young hawk flyin' and my soul began to rise And pretty soon My heart was singin'
Roll, roll me away, I'm gonna roll me away tonight Gotta keep rollin, gotta keep ridin', keep searchin' till I find what's right And as the sunset faded I spoke to the faintest first starlight And I said next time Next time We'll get it right
And i hate to say this out loud and nik will never forgive me, but the Kid Rock album "Rock n Roll Jesus" has some really good moments! so...
SOTD: Roll On - Kid Rock
Mmmm I love it when you play it like that Come on... Play
Sittin' here alone I'm lookin' back on where I've roamed And laughing how I swore I'd win and not get burned Left my family Left my home I worked my fingers to the bone And there was not a stone I did not leave unturned And I was havin' a good time
Roll on Roll on Roller Coaster We're one day older and one step closer Roll on there's mountains to climb Roll on we're on borrowed time Roll on Roller coaster Roll on tonight Roll on tonight yeah
Money and success I don't complain about the stress I wanted this and now it's here So I don't bitch And I swear that time's a trick It disappears in oh so quick Man I was just sixteen And now I'm starin' at thirty-six But I'm still havin' a good time
Roll on Roll on Roller Coaster We're one day older and one step closer Roll on there's mountains to climb Roll on we're on borrowed time Roll on Roller coaster Roll on tonight Roll on tonight
And I know it's hard to see with the sun in your eyes But one day you're gonna say I saw the light
And now headin' for the hill And I just cannot wait until My children grow up to have children of their own And I'll be telling them about The times I turned the party out And how I stood against an army all alone Drinkin' wine and stayin' high And realized it couldn't last And how I turned myself around And went down another path And the signs we must observe When life's changes do occur But most of all I'll tell them Just how proud I am of them And always have a good time It's all love and good times Let's all have a good time Yeah
Roll on Roll on Roller Coaster We're one day older and one step closer Roll on there's mountains to climb Roll on we're on borrowed time Roll on Roller coaster Roll on tonight Roll on tonight
Today i am tired beyond any tiredness i have experienced before. not just physically, but emotionally and spiritually. so i must apologise to you. i have spent so much energy keeping you up that i have none left for myself. i can't do that anymore. you're going to have to find a way to support yourself for a while, until i recharge. i'm sorry, but it's me time now. xxx
where the fck is summer? i'm not one for hot weather, i get sunburn at the drop of a hat, but sheesh, can we at least have 2 sunny days a weeks so i can do the washing and bath the dogs?
holy shit, i'm a couple of hours away from being the mother of a 2 year old!
wheeeeeeeee, so excited about running Black Mamba in Cape Town on thursday
i think i may have overdone the sweet shopping for the party on saturday. oh well, bye bye waistline, hello 2nd spare wheel!!
hillbillies don't have white floored barns, no matter what musicians may think!
i'm a lighting geek. i dream about winning the lotto and what lights i'd buy with the money
last night i got home and my mom was watching one of those mindless call in game shows and i had flashbacks to Requiem for a Dream. hope the fridge doesn't attack mom!
i love Kevin Smith and can't wait to see Zack and Miri make a Porno
i feel like i should apologise to my car for swearing at it so much.
i never feel like i should apologise to taxi's
i wish Tina would hurry up and phone me
it really sucks when companies book the theater. they better let us buy drinks on their tab.
i love the way Shae says worm. and calls me megum
holy shit, i'm a couple of hours away from being the mother of a 2 year old!
i kind of miss the life i had before i started full time at the theatre. and the people. having a social life was pretty cool.
that being said. i love my job. i bitch about it a lot, but i love it
i'm trying so hard to behave because i'd rather die than hurt you.
the other you, who was once my everything is no longer that to me. i've kicked that habit, i hope, forever.
dumbfucks fucking annoy me. especially dumbfucks who don't know how to fucking brush their hair. dumbfucks
yup. tomorrow shae turns two. mindblowing. i'm not entirely sure how she went from this little pink wriggling thing that i was slightly terrified of to this articulate independant little person in two short years, but it happened. against all odds, she's survived the chaos that comes from living in a 5-person, 7-animal household and come out tops, wrapping everyone she meets around her pinky finger as she goes.
