I know it's not Thanksgiving, but last night I took my nephew bowling and got my first ever turkey!!!! Three strikes in a row to top my score at 168. That's the highest score I've been able to get so far. Just thought I'd update. I'll post pictures of my new tattoo soon.

The other day you wrote a little parody of "The Wizard of Oz". Today Crystal sent me a cartoon that reminded me of you.

Song of the day

2005-09-15T14:50:00.000-07:00

I've recently been taught to look at this song from a Christian perspective.

Madonna: Frozen

You only see what your eyes want to see
How can life be what you want it to be
You're frozen
When your heart's not open

You're so consumed with how much you get
You waste your time with hate and regret
You're broken
When your heart's not open

Chorus:

Mmmmmm, if I could melt your heart
Mmmmmm, we'd never be apart
Mmmmmm, give yourself to me
Mmmmmm, you hold the key

Now there's no point in placing the blame
And you should know I suffer the same
If I lose you
My heart will be broken

Love is a bird, she needs to fly
Let all the hurt inside of you die
You're frozen
When your heart's not open

(chorus)
(verse)
(chorus, repeat)

If I could melt your heart

In rememberance of 9/11

I heard these lyrics a while ago and wanted to post them today. It's a song written by Yellowcard called "Believe" dedicated to the heroes of 9/11.

Think about the love inside the strength of heart
Think about the heroes saving life in the dark
Climbing higher through the fire, time was running out
Never knowing you weren't going to be coming down alive
But you still came back for me
You were strong and you believed

Everything is gonna be alright
Everything is gonna be alright
Everything is gonna be alright
Be strong. Believe.

Be strong. Believe.

Think about the chance I never had to say
Thank you for giving up your life that day
Never fearing, only hearing voices calling out
Let it all go, the life that you know, just to bring it down alive
And you still came back for me
You were strong and you believed

Everything is gonna be alright
Everything is gonna be alright
Everything is gonna be alright
Be strong. Believe.

Everything is gonna be alright
Everything is gonna be alright
Everything is gonna be alright
Be strong. Believe.

Spoken: (Again today, we take into our hearts and minds those who perished on this site one year ago, and also those who came to toil in the rubble to bring order out of chaos, to help us make sense of our despair)

Wanna hold my wife when I get home
Wanna tell the kids they'll never know how much I love to see them smile
Wanna make a change right here right now
Wanna live a life like you somehow
Wanna make your sacrifice worthwhile

Everything is gonna be alright
Everything is gonna be alright
Everything is gonna be alright
Be strong. Believe.

Everything is gonna be alright
Everything is gonna be alright
Everything is gonna be alright
Be strong. Believe.

Think about the love inside the strength of heart
Think about the heroes saving life in the dark
Think about the chance I never had to say
Thank you for giving up your life that day

Spoken:(The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here)

I removed the last post because I realized that I let my anger get the best of me. It's not usually like me to lash out but I did and I apologize.

HMM.....

What kind of President goes on vacation for 5 weeks while we are in the middle of a war?

Just wanted to say I LOVE YOU!

All too many times in our lives we forget to let people know just how much we truly love and appreciate them. So no more excuses. Here are ways to say I Love You in many languages, be creative and say a different one to the person you love each day.

Dutch: Ik hou van, French: Je t'aime,
Gaelic: Tha gradh agam ort, German: Ich liebe Dich,
Greek: S' agapo, Irish: taim i' ngra leat,
Italian: ti amo, Polish: Kocham Cie, Spanish: Te amo,
Arabic: Ana Ba-heb-bak, Chinese: wo aì ni,

Japanese: Kimi o aishiteru, Korean: Nanun Niga Joa,

You. You were a friend.
You were a friend of mine I let you spend the night.
You see, it was my fault. Of course it was mine.

I'm too hard at work.
Have you ever heard of anything so absurd ever in your life?
I'm sorry for wasting your time.

Who am I to say this situation isn't great?
When it's my job to make the most of it
Of course I didn't know that it would happen to me.
Not that easy.

Hey. What's that you say?
You're not blaming me for anything.
Well, that's great, but I don't break that easy.
Does it fade away?

So, that's why I'm ... I'm apologizing now
For telling you I thought that we could make it
I just don't get enough to believe that we've both changed.

See who am I to say this situation isn't great?
It is my time to make the most of it
Of course I didn't know that it would happen to me.
Not that easy, no.
No, no no.

If all along the fault is up for grabs,
Why can't she have it?
If it's for sale, what is your offer?
I will sell it for no less than what I bought it for.
Pay no more than absolutely zero.

Well, neither one of us deserves the blame,
Because opportunities moved us away.
It's not an easy thing to learn to play
A game that's made for two--that's you and me.
The rules remain a mystery.
See how it's easy?

So, who am I to say this situation isn't great?
When it's our time to make the most of it,
How could we ever know that this would happen to me?
Not that easy, no.
No ...

When all along the fault is up for grabs, and there you have it.
Well, it's for sale--go make your offer.
Will I sell it for no less than what I bought it for?
Pay no more than absolutely zero.

Don't know what to write....
