Weekends are Good Times

So I was reading Cait's blog and she linked to The Top 100 cover songs of all time And then I was listening to The Ongoing History of New Music and guess what they were talking about? Cover songs! We had everything from Red Hot Chilli Peppers covering Stevy Wonder, to Oasis doing a Beatles cover which they claimed was live on the album, but they lied. It's funny how some covers are better than the original songs, and then there are those covers that just plain suck! How awesome is this?? Jonathan Coulton's cover of "Baby got Back" is ranked number 2! That just kicks ass! I heard "My Way" - Sid Vicious (Frank Sinatra)
and my God that sucked. But then, right after that I heard "Darling Nicky" originally by Prince but covered by the Foo Fighters, and I'm now searching everywhere for that song. I could have sworn I saw "Smells like Teen Spirit" covered by Paul Enca on that list, but I'm looking over it again and I can't seem to find it. The only reason I liked that cover was the fact that for once i could actually understand the words! What a concept! Not like they make any sense though... anyways...

On Saturday I spent the day with my brother. It was really goode times. He and I don't often get to spend lots of alone time together, so that was pretty cool. We went and saw "I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Lary" and it was a really interesting movie. It was pretty funny, and it also did a good job of showing the discrimination against homosexuals. I liked it.

Rosamae is doing awesome! Today we're having an O and M lesson to get me to the LA weight loss place. We shall see if this O and M instructor will actually show up. This week, both Terri and Jesse's birthdays. Mine and Cristina's are coming soon!!! I want the new Harry Potter book soooo badly! OK, time for breakfast!

Positive things:

  • I've got a whole bunch of new covers I have to download
  • It's a gorgeous day outside
  • Rosamae is kicking ass with her guide work and she's the sweetest puppy ever
  • Birthdays birthdays birthdays!

But I do have Friends

People are great. Terri and her fiance and everyone who lives in that house have been awesome to me. We've been spending a lot of time together, and I really like them lots. Now if only she'd update her Live Journal, I could be happy again. He he. I beat you! Rosamae is snoring on the floor beside me. I love her. She's the greatest. So it's not all bad.

Make this go on forever

Please don't let this turn into something it's not
I can only give you everything I've got
I can't be as sorry as you think I should
But I still love you more than anyone else could

All that I keep thinking throughout this whole fight
Is it could take my whole damn life to make this right
This splintered mast I'm holding on won't save me long
Because I know fine well that what I did was wrong

The last girl and the last reason to make this last for as long as I could
The first kiss and the first time that I felt connected to anything
The weight of water, the way you taught me to look past everything I have ever learned
The final word in the final sentence you ever uttered to me was love

We have gone through so much worse than this before
What's so different this time that you can't ignore
You say it is much more than just my last mistake
And we should spend some time apart for both our sakes

The last girl and the last reason to make this last for as long as I could
The first kiss and the first time that I felt connected to anything
The weight of water, the way you taught me to look past everything I have ever learned
The final word in the final sentence you ever uttered to me was love

The last girl and the last reason to make this last for as long as I could
The first kiss and the first time that I felt connected to anything
The weight of water, the way you taught me to look past everything I have ever learned
The final word in the final sentence you ever uttered to me was love

And I don't know where to look
My words just break and melt
Please just save me from this darkness

And I don't know where to look
My words just break and melt
Please just save me from this darkness

I've been home for awhile. My dog is amazing! She's a gorgeous puppy and she works so well. Things are kind of tough right now. OK, by kind of I mean a lot. I'll be fine.
