Not ready to tell

   Posted by: Yoggie    in Friends, Personal, Relationships

I had this entry I was going to post about the latest post at Just One Bite which is about pain. I was going to write about my feelings and observations regrading Eden’s (not her real name, but a nickname… just go with it okay) post, the “white knight” syndrome, and how similar backgrounds create such dissimilar personalities and defense mechanisms, but looking back on my past and drudging the old pain and memories was just a little too much to deal with at this moment. I thought I had delt with the abuse sufficiently to talk about it, but I guess I was wrong, I was still hiding too much from myself.

Maybe one day soon I can complete that post and let you read it and fulfill my promise to myself and Eden. My apologies to Eden.

No more Gloria

   Posted by: Yoggie    in News, Personal

I just read some sad news today.

Laura Branigan, singer of such hits as “Gloria”, “How Am I Supposed To Live Without You”, “Self Control”, and “Power Of Love”, died last Thursday of a brain aneurysm. She was 47.

She was a very beautiful and talented singer whose strong voice and songwriting skills produced staples in the pop music world and allowed her to venture into the realm of acting, going as far as playing Janis Joplin in the critically acclaimed musical Love, Janis.

“I want to touch people’s hearts, to get right down to their souls.” – Laura Branigan, 1983

I already miss her.
