I know this was supposed to be done yesterday, but I was very busy (and got nothing done).

1.) If you were in a band (you know, a successful one…), and you HAD to remake an old song, what band/song would you choose and why?
I’m kinda partial to singing Lynard Skynard songs so I would love to remake “Sweet Home Alabama”, the Southern Man’s anthem.

2.) If you were a Make-a-Wish child, what would you wish for (and why)?
I guess I would wish to be on the final episode of Star Trek: Enterprise.

3.) If you had the chance to learn when you were going to die, would you take it? Would you tell anyone if you knew (either your date of death or theirs)?
I would rather not know when i’m gonna die. I have this fear that I’d find out about 3 seconds before I was done in. I would not burden anyone with knowledge of mine or their deaths.

4.) If you couldn’t die until you helped someone, would you rather live forever selfishly or die earlier?
Sounds like a deal that the Devil would make and then you’d be forced to help someone and then you’d die. I would prefer to live forever, but how can you not help anyone?

5.) If there’s any goal you haven’t accomplished yet, what is it and what is stopping you?
Write the Great American Horror Novel and have it published. I just don’t have the time to do much writing (as evident with my lack of updates).

Do your Friday Five.

I am going to do my best to have another update in the next few hours… if I can stay awake.

Before you even think about hitting the link, be warned the following links plays a wav file that contains adult material and language. You have been warned so no whining! This one wav file that I know Eden and Alexa will get a kick out from.

This is very appropriate since the nimrods in Atlanta upheld Alabama’s law banning sexual toys. And all the gall they have to ban sex toys in Georgia as well. I just hope they don’t walk into my local Wal-Mart.

I really need to start taking my blogging more seriously. It is so easy to just let it slide sometimes when you have a lot of work to do.

New projects, new teams.

I live a really boring life sometimes.

Work, work, work work, work. And eat. Sometime in there is sleep…. I’m guessing.

Maybe I am trying to not think about something… or someone. Someone from my past that was a profound influence in my life. A young woman with a cute button nose and exotic oriental eyes whose laughter was sparkling and fresh like a cool spring. My first real love, not one of the passing infatuations that I had earlier. The one that swept me off my feet, the one that I spent hours just looking into her eyes, the first one to say to me “I love you”.

The only one to break my heart when she went away.

I still think about her, more than I would like to admit.

But I made my peace with her memory and I can move on without it ripping my soul to pieces. I learned to live with the pain and it gets a little easier to bear every time she makes an appearance in my mind. I can tell you now, the pain never fully goes away but it becomes tolerable. But then you never really want the pain to go away entirely, for then so would the pleasure you had in knowing that person.

We continue, we build a new room for a new person, a new relationship and keep the old room with the memories of the previous love tidy, clean as they left it so that we can visit it from time to time… visits that becomes less painful as we age and grow.

I guess someone was hungry like a wolf….

1. If you could have anything you wanted to eat for a day, what would you choose for your meals and snacks?
A good bowl of chili, salsa and chips, white cheese dip, maybe an enchilada or two and some chocolate cake.

2. Is there ever a dish/food or dessert you wanted to try but never had the opportunity, what is it?
Calamari. I got through oysters, I should be able to handle Calamari.

3. What’s a dish/food or dessert you’ve tried that you wish you hadn’t?
I know of a few I didn’t like, but none that I regretted trying.

4. Ever watch cooking shows? (i.e. “Great Chefs,” “Epicurious,” etc.)
I used to watch years ago, then I realized that I put on weight just as fast as I did eating it so I stopped. Might as well have the pleasure of eating if you’re gonna gain weight.

5. Are you hungry yet?
No, I just had lunch not more than two hours ago. I’ll be good to go for another three or four hours at least.

Are you starving for the Friday Five?

I told ya I’d get to it today.

1) Would you rather live in a world with or without technology such as computers, cars, airplanes, bombs?
I wouldn’t know what to do with myself if I lived in a world without technology. I do know that I wouldn’t be living in it long. To many things go wrong with my body to support me without technology.

Of course I am also too lazy to exist without technology.

2) If you had to live without either heating in your house or air conditioning, which one would you keep?
I’d keep the heating. I’ve lived without air conditioning and probably could again, but the winters are too cold to do without heat.

3) If you had to own five dogs, what kind would you get?
Really, really small dogs… the kind I can feed to my cats.

4) If the world had a front porch, what would you do on it?
Watch everyone go by it and yell at the young whipper-snappers that are driving too fast…. and tell the neighbors’ kids to get of my lawn.

5) Would you rather live in a neighborhood where you know all of your neighbors by name, or where everyone sticks to their own business?
I would like to live in a more close knit neighborhood, but as most of the houses in my area rent to students or to families making transitions I don’t get that option. One compensation is that I get to see all those young co-eds sun bathing in the summer.

Do last week’s Friday Five for your honey.

Whomever has that voodoo doll of me and is using it as hot poker practice, please cease and desist. I am tired of being sick, swollen, and in pain and the magic you are using on me is getting a little old. Come on, if you want me to be your sex slave all you have to do is ask. I am fairly reasonable.. and kinky. So please allow me some time to heal so that I can get back to my normal life.

Yes, it seems I am still sick. Not as bad as I was, but not near 100% either.

But the drugs the doctor gave me has some really cool side effects like lurid and vivid dreams about really hot babes like actress/model Ariel Carmine (warning: adult content).

I’ll do my best to get some post off today as well as last week’s Friday Five.

I still feel like crap… and the upteen number of pills I have to take ain’t helping either.

I have so many opinions to blog about but I’m just not able to sit behind the computer for any length of time, so bare with me until I can get back on my feet.

Maybe I’ll be able to get today’s Friday Five before I start going argh-pewie.

And for those of you who are wondering how in frell I can be blogging with no internet connect, I’m in the computer lab of my local university. Don’t worry, I’m on my way back home soon and put myself back into bed.

Just a quick note that I will be and have been out all week due to a severe sinus and ear infection, so severe that I can’t move my mouth very much. I’ll be back sometime next week. Don’t worry about me, I’ll be fine.

Koodles!

I have always liked this song. It is so sad yet so romantic.

Brandy (You’re A Fine Girl)
Words and Music by Elliot Lurie
as performed by Looking Glass

(dooda-dit-dooda), (dit-dooda-dit-dooda)

There’s a port on a western bay
And it serves a hundred ships a day
Lonely sailors pass the time away
And talk about their homes

And there’s a girl in this harbor town
And she works layin’ whiskey down
They say “Brandy, fetch another round”
She serves them whiskey and wine

The sailors say “Brandy, you’re a fine girl” (you’re a fine girl)
“What a good wife you would be” (such a fine girl)
“Yeah your eyes could steal a sailor from the sea”
(dooda-dit-dooda), (dit-dooda-dit-dooda-dit)

Brandy wears a braided chain
Made of finest silver from the North of Spain
A locket that bears the name
Of the man that Brandy loves

He came on a summer’s day
Bringin’ gifts from far away
But he made it clear he couldn’t stay
No harbor was his home

The sailor said ” Brandy, you’re a fine girl” (you’re a fine girl)
“What a good wife you would be” (such a fine girl)
“But my life, my lover, my lady is the sea”
(dooda-dit-dooda), (dit-dooda-dit-dooda-dit)

Yeah, Brandy used to watch his eyes
When he told his sailor stories
She could feel the ocean foam rise
She saw its ragin’ glory
But he had always told the truth, lord, he was an honest man
And Brandy does her best to understand
(dooda-dit-dooda), (dit-dooda-dit-dooda-dit)

At night when the bars close down
Brandy walks through a silent town
And loves a man who’s not around
She still can hear him say

She hears him say ” Brandy, you’re a fine girl” (you’re a fine girl)
“What a good wife you would be” (such a fine girl)
“But my life, my lover, my lady is the sea”
(dooda-dit-dooda), (dit-dooda-dit-dooda-dit)

“Brandy, you’re a fine girl” (you’re a fine girl)
“What a good wife you would be” (such a fine girl)
“But my life, my lover, my lady is the sea”
