I'm happy tonight because im in love :)


Mike and I did not exchange gifts. we have no need of that. We only desire to be with one another and that is more then enough :) He wanted to get me something and I told him no. I have all that I need.

All I need is a pair of gators. Well, a Jetboil would be nice too...My boots are getting a little thin. A new bass rod would meet the spring in style. Maybe the reason I'm here on St. V. day alone is because I couldn't afford both.

V day went well for me....I went to work, talked to the Chief about my "incident" convinced a Plaintiff Attorney to avoid going to court. Left the office, went to the weight room, came home and cooked dinner. Now I am going to grad some sleep....at least I can go camping in my dreams until the real chance comes around.

Happy talk
keep talkin' happy talk

Talk about things you'd like to do.
You gotta have a dream
if you don't have a dream
How you gonna have a dream come true?
Talk about a moon floatin' in the sky

Lookin' like a lily on a lake;
Talk about a bird learnin' how to fly
Makin' all the music he can make.

Happy talk
keep talkin' happy talk
. . .
Let's talk about a star lookin' like a toy

Peekin' through the branches of a tree;
Talk about a girl
talk about a boy
Countin' all the ripples on the sea.

Happy talk
keep talkin' happy talk
. . .
Talk about a boy sayin' to the girl:
Golly, Baby ! I'm a lucky cuss !
Talk about a girl sayin' to the boy:
'You and me are lucky to be us !"

Happy talk
keep talkin' happy talk
. . .
If you don't talk happy and you never have a dream
Then you'll never have a dream come true !

That's Happy Talk by Captain Sensible, Founder of The Damned.

I feel a bit more like this.....
Just yesterday morning they let me know you were gone
Suzanne,the plans they made put an end to you
I walked out this morning and I wrote down this song
I just can't remember who to sent it to.

I've seen fire and I've seen rain
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
But I always thought that I'd see you again.
There just a few things comin'
my way this time around now
Thought I'd see you, thought I'd see you
Fire and Rain

how about this one :)
There ain't no doudt in no one mind
that loves the finest thing around
Whisper something soft and kind
And hey baby the sky's on fire
I'm dyin' ain't I
Gone to Carolina in my mind

Dark and silent late last night
I think I might have heard the highway callin
Geese in flight and dogs that bite
Signs that might be omens say I'm going,going
I'm gone to Carolina in my mind

James Taylor sings "our song" from our wedding (1st dance). My wife and I saw him after we got married.

Something in the way she moves

There’s something in the way she moves,
Or looks my way, or calls my name,
That seems to leave this troubled world behind.
If I’m feeling down and blue,
Or troubled by some foolish game,
She always seems to make me change my mind.

Chorus:
’n’(and) I feel fine anytime she’s around me now,
She’s around me now
Almost all the time.
’n’(and) if I’m well you can tell that she’s been with me now,
’n’(and) she’s been with me now
Quite a long, long time
And I feel fine.___________

Every now and then the things I lean on lose their meaning,
And I find myself careening
Into places where I should not let me go.
-- she has the power to go where no one else can find me,
Yes, and to silently remind me
Of the happiness and good times that I know, you know.
Well I said I just got to know that:

It isn’t what she’s got to say
Or how she thinks or where she’s been.
To me, the words are nice, the way they sound.
I like to hear them best that way -
It doesn’t much matter what they mean,
Weh (when/well? ) she says them mostly just to calm me down.

Chorus:
’n’(and) I feel fine anytime she’s around me now,
A-she’s around me now
Almost all the time.
If I’m well you can tell that she’s been with me now,
And she’s been with me now
Quite a long,
Long
Time -
Yes, and I feel fine.___________

daydreamer....the sad thing is you cannot go somewhere to be happy, you have to learn to be happy where you are.

The worst thing about running from yourself is that one day you stop and THERE YOU ARE.

Why you move to PA?

I spent a long time running to find a new life. I know how hard it is. I guess the best thing I can tell you is that you are not alone.

Sounds like you are looking for WHO you are....I am pretty sure you know WHAT you are...but the WHO you are is the kicker....

XL, Thanks

In short i have lost everything that I ever loved and everything I ever thought I would ever need and now I have to try and find the will to give it another try and right now i'm a little short in the strength department.

Sorry for the sad crap, I'm just weak tonight.
