Its All In The Lips
Today was Office Cube day or something to that effect. Now I wouldnt mind a cube in this place. It would one hell of an IT shop to work at. This would be an awesome team building too.

So Who Are You?
I've been playing Rock Band lately and been having an absolute blast. Its abit more complex than Guitar Hero, especially with the drum set and microphone for singing.
One of the reasons for even getting it was so I could play Learn To Fly by The Foo Fighters. It took awhile to get the guitar portion, but was worth the effort. I learned alot.
The downside is that I can download these songs to Guitar Hero 3. Damn...

Ah well. Amazing how things work out.

Its The House Of Bloo
I didnt know much about Foster's Home For Imaginary Friends until a friend of mine asked me to look up the character, Bloo. I will have to admit that its a cute little bastard.
I'm blaming Belle for this.

Breakfast At Tiffany's by Deep Blue Something
I always did like this song. It was original and I could actually sing it without killing too many people.

The Other Thousand Words
I've saved up a few of these things and really didnt use them because of their size or somehow just didnt fit into the scheme of things. Its time I cleared out the folder, but I didnt want the words to be unsaid. Enjoy.
Promise me you'll always remember: You're braver than you believe, and stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.
-- Christopher Robin in Winnie The Pooh
My feelings for you shame me into silence.
The truth of this and your name will never be revealed.
It is you who has made me realize the failure of my life.
The thought of you fills me with longing
And at the same time,
A burning humiliation
That produces scar tissue and dead brain cells.
Your existence mocks me and I am unable to confront this.
You have no idea of any of this.
None of this is your fault.
It is completely with me.
It is you who makes me see what I really am.
I am weak and out of touch with myself.
-- Henry Rollins
I try to talk to you, but I don't know what to say.
I am afraid you don't want me to say anything.
So I don't.
But inside of me there are words waiting to come out.
And tell you how I feel.
Like how I miss you.
And how I love you despite my broken heart.
And how I need you in my life.
And especially how much I want you.
But those words may forver stay in my heart-locked inside.
Sometimes I wonder if there are words locked inside you too.
But I'll never know.
-- Anonymous
The best way to waste your life is by taking notes. The easiest way to avoid living is to just watch. Look for the details. Report. Don't participate.

I loved you in the morning,
Our kisses deep and warm,
Your hair upon the pillow like a sleepy golden storm,
Yes, many loved before us, I know that we are not new,
In city and in forest they smiled like me and you,
but now it's come to distances and both of us must try,
Your eyes are soft with sorrow,
Hey, that's no way to say goodbye.
-- Leonard Cohen
