Steve just came home with a pizza and I put together a killer salad. We will watch a bloody movie called Feeders (why does he rent these things?) and then watch the Braves. As we watch, I will bother him with garden plans for tonorrow! He went from deep depression and nasty to playing around. My Goddess I need some balance. And sex. I want sex. Is it just a premeno thing? Or a 40's thing? I thought my peak was gone. All of a sudden this thing has me crazy. Maybe that's why he strings it out... f**king jerk. It keeps messing with me. Maybe I need to do a Tarot reading... see if it sheds any light.

Using only the lyrics from ONE artist or band, answer the following questions - I had to go with John Denver - He's one I know the best.
1. Are you male or female? "A Country Girl in Paris"
2. Describe yourself: "On the road of experience, trying to find my own way - sometimes I wish that I could fly away"
3. How do you feel about yourself?: "And I'm looking for space - and to find out who I am - and I'm looking to try and understand"
4. How do you feel about life?: "It's a sweet, sweet, sweet dream, sometimes I'm almost there - sometimes I fly like an eagle -and sometimes I'm deep in despair"
5. What would you rather be doing? "If I had my druthers I'd go fishing, Find myself a lake and a lazy day. If I had my druthers I'd quit wishing, Get off the old caboose get on my way. Give me whole lots of laughter, great big barrels of fun, A nighttime full of romance, a daytime full of sun. If I had my druthers I'd go flying, Looking for the things I'd like to see. If I had my druthers I'd be trying, trying The only way to be what I can be. Give me somebody to love me, make me feel like the only one, And something that's worth doing, Lord, I feel good when it's well done. If I had my druthers I'd go sailing, Catch me camping out on the open sea. If I had my druthers I'd be singing, A just how good this good life feels to me. You just need someone to talk to, something you can share. You don't need no reason for living, Lord, it's already there, yes it is!
6. Describe where you live: " Someplace cool an' green an' shady"
7. Share a few words of wisdom: Perhaps love is like a resting place A shelter from the storm It exists to give you comfort It is there to keep you warm And in those times of trouble When you are most alone The memory of love will bring you home
Perhaps love is like a window Perhaps an open door It invites you to come close It wants to show you more And even if you lose yourself And dont know what to do The memory of love will see you through
Oh, love to some is like a cloud To some as strong as steel For some a way of living For some a way to feel And some say love is holding on And some say letting go And some say love is everything And some say they dont know
Perhaps love is like the ocean Full of conflict, full of change Like a fire when its cold outside Or thunder when it rains If I should live forever And all my dreams come true My memories of love will be of you
