Remember those walls I built
Well, baby they're tumbling down
And they didn't even put up a fight
They didn't even make up a sound
I found a way to let you in
But I never really had a doubt
Standing in the light of your halo
I got my angel now
It's like I've been awakened
Every rule I had you breakin'
It's the risk that I'm takin'
I ain't never gonna shut you out
Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace
You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your face
Baby I can feel your halo
Pray it won't fade away
I can feel your halo halo halo
I can see your halo halo halo
I can feel your halo halo halo
I can see your halo halo halo
Hit me like a ray of sun
Burning through my darkest night
You're the only one that I want
Think I'm addicted to your light
I swore I'd never fall again
But this don't even feel like falling
Gravity can't forget
To pull me back to the ground again
Feels like I've been awakened
Every rule I had you breakin'
The risk that I'm takin'
I'm never gonna shut you out
Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace
You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your face
Baby I can feel your halo
Pray it won't fade away
I can feel your halo halo halo
I can see your halo halo halo
I can feel your halo halo halo
I can see your halo halo halo
I can feel your halo halo halo
I can see your halo halo halo
I can feel your halo halo halo
I can see your halo halo halo
Halo, halo
Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace
You're everything I need and more

Kylie Minogue - The One (Freemasons Mix) HDTV 1080p
i'm just wondering...
will You reach me?
Oh yes.
Sinead O'Connor--No Man's Woman
I don't wanna be no man's woman
It don't make me happy this mantrolling
thing that you got for me so I become
no man's woman
I don't wanna be no man's woman
I've other work I want to get done
I haven't travelled this far to become
no man's woman
no man's woman
Cuz I'm tired of it
and I'm so scared of it
that I'll never trust again
cuz a man can fake you
take your soul and make you
miserable in so much pain
My friends think I'm alone but I've got secrets
I don't tell everything about the love I get
I got a lovin' man but he's a spirit
He never does me harm never treats me bad
He'd never takes away all the love he has
and I'm forgiven oh a million times
I'm never tired of it
and I'm not scared of it
cuz it doesn't cause me pain
Like a man can fake you
take your soul and make you
never be yourself again
I never wanna be no man's woman
I only wanna be my own woman
I haven't travelled this far to become
no man's woman (x3)

Work It, Babe
"I'm selfish, impatient, & a little insecure. I make mistakes. I'm out of control & at times I'm hard to handle. but if you cant handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best!"
~Marilyn Monroe
Damn straight. If you can't run with the big dogs, stay on the porch!
By the way, my cheeks are annoyingly chubby, but weight is falling off and I'm soon going to be my old knockout babe self again. Just need a lot more playtime on the Wii Fit, sweating to hula hoops and step exercises. Oh, and boxing, too.

Scrutinized
i like to drink red wine
right out of the bottle
and i swear to you
that the eye of jupiter
is always keeping
an eye on me
and it makes me
a little self-conscious.
have you ever had that
feeling that you're
being watched?

This has been one of my favorite songs for a few years. It pretty much describes everything.

Wuthering Heights - Cathy and Heathcliff - My Immortal
OK - this is the last Wuthering Heights video I'm going to post, before anyone decides to put me in a straight jacket. I love the song that someone put to this.

Ralph Fiennes Tribute: Wuthering Heights
Sorry. I really couldn't help myself.
Heat
When it's really hot,
and you drink iced water,
don't you just love the feel
of the cold going down
the inside of your throat
down your chest
and into your stomach?
I do.

To Heathcliff
We can be insane together, happily, because if the rest of the world is considered sane, then I desperately want to be insane.
Eric Clapton - My Father's Eyes (Official Music Video)
I seem to have a newfound interest in music again. I haven't been interested in listening to music for about two years.
Dreams from June 17, 2010
There were these vehicles that only coasted downhill. You'd have to go to the top of a hill and then coast down. Someone else wanted drive one with me as the passenger, but I was afraid they'd go too fast so I insisted that I drive, so that I could stay under 40 miles per hour.
--------------------
I was sitting at the top of a mountain built I felt afraid of sitting so high so I made my way down a little to sit at a place I felt more comfortable.

Wuthering Heights (1992) (Kate Bush-Wuthering Heights)
From the best story ever written. Watching this video sends my emotions through a roller coaster ride. The movie this comes from is the 1992 version starring Ralph Fiennes. The song is by Kate Bush. I strongly recommend you read the book and watch the movie. It's tumultuous love but beautiful love. Opposites pairing up. Hot cold, soft hard, gentle harsh...

Growing Older is Not Growing Up
I'm sure I've mentioned before that growing up I was an outcast in elementary and high school. I was not an ugly child at all. I was both pretty and smart. But most everyone bullied me. Mostly it was teasing and name calling, having paper wads thrown at me, chewing gum thrown in my hair, and occasionally I'd get my ass beat up. School life was miserable for me and I could never go home and tell my parents about it because I was embarrassed about it. Every day, from the moment I got on the school bus until the end of the day it was like this. They made fun of my clothes, my car, everything.
As an adult I finally realized that I was treated this way because kids realized they could really get to me. I was very sensitive. (I still am, unfortunately.) Also, being a "gifted" student didn't help. It seems like my problems started when I got put into a gifted and talented program at my school after having taken an I.Q. test.
Anyway, all that is beside the point. The point I want to make is that many of the people I went to school with have not changed. (A few have - in fact, two people have apologized to me for the way they treated me growing up.) To prove my point, below is a quote that comes from one of my high-school classmate's Facebook wall today. This woman is my age - 31, and this is what she had to say about a little girl at a playground today:
"Saw the craziest unibrow on a girl at the playground. Their parents won't have to worry about teen pregnancy, so that's kinda nice."
This is exactly what I had to deal with from about third grade until my senior year in high school. They were almost all like this. (And some of them still are, judging by what they say on Facebook about other people.) My senior year in college I was voted onto the homecoming court, because many people at school liked me and I had lots of friends. I always wondered why there was such a dramatic turnaround from high school to college, from being a victim of constant cruelty to being popular. I still wonder.

I Know My Place
Thrall to limerence
Punished for not being God
Living a strange life
Grieving lost dreams
Looking the world over
For the one to whom
All the praises will be bestowed
Simply because his shape
Fits the shape of the void
A crowd has been searched
Hundreds of missives
No, endless missives
None yet are perfect
Hard work for a perfectionist
As a wanderer
As a seeker
The search will continue
If it takes 30 years
Or longer
Something worth finding is
Something worth waiting for
When the missing piece
To the puzzle arrives
Alleluias will be sung
And then I will be
In my place
And I will
Know my place
That is home
Punished for not being God
Living a strange life
Grieving lost dreams
Looking the world over
For the one to whom
All the praises will be bestowed
Simply because his shape
Fits the shape of the void
A crowd has been searched
Hundreds of missives
No, endless missives
None yet are perfect
Hard work for a perfectionist
As a wanderer
As a seeker
The search will continue
If it takes 30 years
Or longer
Something worth finding is
Something worth waiting for
When the missing piece
To the puzzle arrives
Alleluias will be sung
And then I will be
In my place
And I will
Know my place
That is home

Wiley Windy Moors
It is very dark here.
My search for a rescuer comes out void.
No one fits the mold.
I keep going on for others, but not for me.
I need to do something for me.
My search for a rescuer comes out void.
No one fits the mold.
I keep going on for others, but not for me.
I need to do something for me.
Conclusion
I am unique - just like everybody else.
