You're a good man, Paul Newman. :)

Now, If I could only get to sleep. Grrr.

BrainChild.

So, here's a bit of a peek at the new endeavor:

Never Make Someone A Priority, When They Only Make You An Option.

Tonight, I'm a grump.

I hate not being able to sleep. At times, I can easily pinpoint the exact reason as to why I'm having trouble "letting down", while other times, I draw a blank. At least for tonight, I think I know.

I'm dissapointed. In a lot of different people, for a lot of different things. Tonight, I just feel like a wall has fallen on me and even though I know I'm strong enough to move, I feel paralyzed. Maybe I ask too much. Maybe I think, for just this one time, things will be or end differently. Maybe, after all of the fighting, I'm wrong. Maybe all of this, isn't worth fighting for, at all.

My mom says that sometimes I see "inside" of people and am able to identify a humanistic aspect, that I become indebted to. I need to stop this. Every situation always seems to end poorly.

Sometimes, I really wish for the "Old" Harmony. The younger, shy, chubbier girl...someone who if, at that time, could've seen the way things have ended now; would've done anything to avoid some of the decisions that she would eventually make.

Ya live, Ya Learn.

Goodnight.

E.S. Ghetto.

After spending all day raking leaves and mowing my lawn, I looked up and spotted this. For the first time in a bit, I had a good laugh.

I do, officially, live in the ghetto. Yessss.

Gone Coastal.

Found this photo while I was helping my mom, clean out one of our many garages. (An all day job...we won't mention how much time I wasted, looking at old photos)

Oregon Coast. I think I was 15.

My mom was behind the lens. I was the unsuspecting model.

Needless to say, I quit while I was ahead. :)

Word of the day: Epicure.

Elephants.

With all of the free time I have recently aquired, I found this. ITunes it or Limewire it, if you're cheap. This song is beautiful.


If the elephants have past lives,
Yet are destined to always remember,
It's no wonder how they scream,
Like you and I, they must have some temper.

And I am dreaming of them on the plains,
Dirtying up their beds,
Watching for some kind of rain
To cool their hot heads.

And how dare that you send me that card
When I'm doing all that I can do.
You are forcing me to remember
When all I want is to just forget you.

If the tiger shall protect her young,
Then tell me how did you slip by.
All my instincts have failed me for once
I must have somehow slept the whole night.

And I am dreaming of them with their kill,
Tearing it all apart,
Blood dripping from their lips,
And teeth sinking in to heart.

And how dare that you say you will call,
When you know I need some peace of mind..
If you had to take sides with the animals,
Won't you do it with one who is kind?

If the hawks in the trees need the dead,
If you're living you don't stand a chance.
For a time, though you share the same bed,
There are only two ends to this dance.

You can flee with your wounds just in time,
Or lie there as he feeds,
Watching yourself ripped to shreds
And laughing as you bleed.

So for those of you falling in love,
Keep it kind, keep it good, keep it right.
Throw yourself in the midst of danger,
But keep one eye open at night.
