Hehe

As soon as I read Lina's comment on my last post, I thought, "If I did one thing every day that scared me, I'd be dead."

Hehe...I'm crazy.

Boundries

Ahhhhh boundries. Or lines. Imaginary or real, they are there, like a fence around my pool of actions or reactions for any situation that might come up. Some get through...others do not.

It's the actions involved in making the first move, being spontaneous, and being unconcerned with the consequences that get screened when it comes time to decide what to do.

Gotta change this...gotta just do it, you know? If it's holding me back, then it's got to go. Right?

Easier said than done, but definately worth doing.

I need to take some risks.

There Was Meaning...

I'm sorry, but there was meaning to the post on "Little Red Corvette."

Basically, it's a subtle song, but incredibly sexy and fun. Was just in one of those moods I suppose. Especially those lines about her body being on the verge of obscene...so hot.

Definately want to whisper that stanza in a girls ear sometime.

This Can't Be Good

It can't be a good thing that I'm in pain when I try to move my eyes, right?

Ouch.

Having fluctuating symptoms is about as much fun as...well, something that isn't fun at all. At all.

It hurts to swallow. And blink.

Little Red Corvette

I guess I shoulda known by the way U parked your car sideways
That it wouldn't last
See, you're the kinda person that believes in makin' out once
Love 'em and leave 'em fast
I guess I must be dumb cuz U had a pocket full of horses
Trojan and some of them used
But it was Saturday night, I guess that makes it all right
And U say - What have I got 2 lose?

And honey, I say Little Red Corvette
Baby, U're much 2 fast (Oh)
Little Red Corvette
U need a love that's gonna last

I guess I should've closed my eyes when U drove me 2 the place
Where your horses run free
Cuz I felt a little ill when I saw all the pictures
Of the jockeys that were there before me
Believe it or not, I started 2 worry
I wondered if I had enough class
But it was Saturday night, I guess that makes it all right
And U say - Baby, have U got enough gas?
Oh yeah!


Little Red Corvette
Baby, U're much 2 fast (Yes U are)
Little Red Corvette
U need 2 find a love that's gonna last (Oh, oh)

A body like yours oughta be in jail
Cuz it's on the verge of bein' obscene
Move over, baby, gimme the keys
I'm gonna try 2 tame your little red love machine

Little Red Corvette
Baby, U're much 2 fast
Little Red Corvette
Need 2 find a love that's gonna last, hey hey

Little Red Corvette
Honey, U got 2 slow down (Got 2 slow down)
Little Red Corvette
Cuz if U don't, U're gonna run your little red corvette right in the ground
(Little Red Corvette)
Right down 2 the ground (Honey, U got 2 slow down)
U, U, U got 2 slow down
(Little Red Corvette)
U're movin' much 2 fast, 2 fast
Need 2 find a love that's gonna last!

Girl, U got an ass like I never seen, ow!
And the ride...
I say the ride is so smooth, U must be a limousine
Ow!
Baby, U're much 2 fast
Little Red Corvette
U need a love, U need a love that's, uh, that's gonna last
(Little Red Corvette)
Babe, U got 2 slow down (U got 2 slow down)
Little Red Corvette
Cuz if U don't, cuz if U don't
U're gonna run your body right into the ground (Right into the ground)
Right into the ground (Right into the ground)
Right into the ground (Right into the ground)

Little Red Corvette, oh

I'm in a Good Place

Although it may not seem like it, I really am in a good place.

I have nothing to complain about, I'm simply who I am and I'm proud of that. Things are going well and I'm so lucky to have the friends that I do, my family, and my new semi-retarded dog Donkey. I'm not sure about that last bit...

So now it's time to make the most of it. Ready? Rock on.

A Circus on the Moon

I have a ton of work to do but I just can't seem to find the motivation to do it all...I'm listening to wonderful music instead of going over "Regina Coeli" which is just not that attractive of a piece.

"Circus on the Moon" has my attention right now, a song off Bruce Hornsby new album, and it's simply beautiful to listen to. The man is so talented.

Speaking of music, A Cappella Fest was wonderful. It was perfect, Hilltones, my tones, you guys were so amazingly on, and it showed. We hit it all, and then some. We owned the pieces we performed, and I can't wait for the recording to come back. As far as I'm concerned, we will beast Florida. Nothing can stop us now.

Laurelei opened up a new standard in their performance at A Cappella Fest. They were brilliant, stunningly beautiful, and right on the money as far as pitch, tempo, just everything. The confidence they had was something I'd never seen in that group at GFS since MMMBop, and it was easy to tell because of the sound they made. A standing ovation to you, Laurelei, I love you all.

And then the seeing of my dear Katie. She is not a bad person, not at all, and I'm so glad I got to see her and bring her back to Heather's. Thank you Heather, for having her, it meant so much to me. She was right at home there and for a while it seemed as though it might have been a normal weekend last year...but then she left, and we are not together anymore. She asked me to call her the next day, and I did, but it's been a few days since then and I feel as though no matter what happens I will only be able to talk to her every few weeks, and see her far less...

And so I've found someone to whom I've developed a certain fondness for, someone who I've known for a long time and simply watched from a distance, wanting to be a part of her life. Nothing has changed...perhaps nothing will. I'm shy, despite what people may think, and no matter how many times I realise I need to create my own luck and just allow myself to go for something, I hold myself back. I need to just let go. What have I got to lose anyway? Well...her...I suppose. I don't know what she wants in terms of anything right now, but if I could just hold her...to be able to hold someone? You know? It feels so good. So wonderful. Just that physical contact and knowing that they're right there, and that they want you to hold them...

It's a magic I long for...

Fest

I'm a nervous wreck.

Besides the fact that this is my last A Cappella Fest, I want this show to be remembered as the night the Hilltones really came into their own. This group is so talented, and we all care about it so much. We love what we do on stage, and I want everyone to understand that. Tonight marks the first time Hilltones will try to be original and outgoing. We know the material, we know the rest. It's just time to do it. And do it we shall.

I'm worried about my mouth giving out after trying to do two Laurelei numbers and then two Hilltones on top of that, but it's just going to happen.

I just want to be able to say we did our very best. And we will.
