I haven't posted lyrics I love lately, so here's the latest...this is Anna Nalick, and I absolutely love this song!!
2 Am and she calls me cause I'm still awake
Can you help me unravel my latest mistake
I don't love him and winter just wasn't my season.
Yea we walk through the doors so accusing their eyes
Like they have any right at all to criticize
Hypocrites you're all here for the very same reason.
Cause you can't jump the track
We're like cars on a cable and life's like an hourglass glued to the table,
No one can find the rewind button girl
So just cradle your head in your hands.
And breathe, just breathe, whoa breathe just breathe
May he turned 21 on the base of Fort Bliss
Just today he sat down to the flask in his fist
Ain't been sober since maybe October of last year
Here in town you can tell he's been down for while
But my God it's so beautiful when the boy smiles
Wanna hold him but maybe I'll just sing about it
Cause you can't jump the track
We're like cars on a cable
And life's like an hourglass glued to the table,
No one can find the rewind button boys so cradle your head in your hands
And breathe, just breathe, whoa breath just breathe
There's a light at the end of this tunnel you shout cause you're just as far in as you'll ever be out
And these mistakes you've made
You'll just make them again if you'll only try turnin' around
2 Am and I'm still awake writing this song
If i get it all down on paper it's no lonmger inside of me threaten' the life it belongs to.
And I feel like I'm naked in front of the crowd
Cause these words are my diary screamin' out aloud
And I know that you'll use them however you want to.
But you can't jump the track
We're like cars on a cable
And life's like an hourglass glued to the table,
No one can find the rewind button now
Sing it if you understand...yeah breath
Just breathe, ohho breathe
I got the email below from a friend and did a little research. This is too easy and could save your life. Please link to this or post yourself so we can spread the word!
Subject: In case of emergency - ICE
Paramedics will turn to a victim's cell phone for clues to that person's identity. You can make their job much easier with a simple idea that they are trying to get everyone to adopt: ICE.
ICE stands for In Case of Emergency. If you add an entry in the contacts list in your cell phone under ICE, with the name and phone no. of the person that the emergency services should call on your behalf, you can save them a lot of time and have your loved ones contacted quickly.. It only takes a few moments of your time to do.
Paramedics know what ICE means and they look for it immediately. ICE your cell phone NOW!
MizL has a great post on the secret language of women for all you guys out there that were wondering...check it out!
A friend at work passed this on...I did a little research on the net and found the information linked at the bottom...it's a neat story.
So we took K out last night...we don't work with her anymore, but that doesn't mean we don't love her...and of course we'll still drink with her...but anyway, this morning I am reminded of the part in Mr. Deeds where John Turturro's "very sneaky" butler brings Adam Sandler some aspirin and says "Here take an aspirin.They make your head seem smaller." My head seems very large this morning, and I don't mean that in the egotistical way... Bleh...
Lance Armstrong is my hero. I'm hooked on the Tour De France, even watching it at 5:30 in the morning. I never imagined that cycling would be interesting, but there really is a lot to it, and the teamwork is amazing! I'm sure everyone knows Lance's story, recovering from cancer to become one of the best (OK, the best) cyclist in the world, raising more than $50 million dollars for cancer research through the LiveStrong foundation (see link to the LAF at left), and generally being an all around great person, there is just something about him that I just really admire...check out the website!
My company makes precise timing products, some of which are used by Nasa to coordinate the shuttle launches. During the latest launch countdown, US Air Force F-15 Eagle Jetfighters helped to provide air cover over


This came from my friend K, who I will miss at work very much…Remember, dear that you were a friend AND a coworker and that I never fire my friends! I love you, man! J

OK, I finally just decided to take a few minutes to do this, as I was so happy to get this from ButterflyLane! So here…
What is the total number of books you own?
I have enough paperbacks that the idea of packing them all to move is freaking me out. There is a great place to trade them here, though…but then I have to get more! J
What is the last book you bought?
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince for my son (and me, I admit it), due to arrive in a week or so, and the book by Hal Moore on which the movie “We Were Soldiers” was based.
What is the last book you read?
Hmmm…I just finished “A Thousand Acres” by Jane Smiley. It was about three sisters of a farming family in the Midwest and pretty good. I am also re-reading Patricia Cornwell’s latest couple of books…
Five books that mean a lot to you?
The Stand by Stephen King. This is a fantastic book, and I dare anyone that thinks of King as strictly a horror writer to read it and not change their minds.
The Dark Tower Series by Stephen King. Reading this series is like wandering in a big house where all the rooms connect and sometimes you can open a door and find someone you knew in the past, and other times you open a door and its to another world all together. And if I mention those, I have to include The Talisman and Black House by Stephen King and Peter Straub because they are also a big part of the story.
The Five People You Meet In Heaven by Mitch Albom. This really made me think about the affect that little things can have on your life and the lives of those around you.
There are so many that come to mind that I’ll just list a few others that I really love: Midnight In the Garden of Good and Evil by John Berendt, anything by Robert B. Parker, Tom Clancy’s Debt of Honor and Without Remorse, Patricia Cornwell’s Kay Scarpetta series…I could go on…
I hope it’s not too late to tag someone…
