Everybody's Changing - Keane


You say you wander your own land
But when I think about it
I don't see how you can

You're aching, you're breaking
And I can see the pain in your eyes
Says everybody's changing
And I don't know why.

So little time
Try to understand that I'm
Trying to make a move just to stay in the game
I try to stay awake and remember my name
But everybody's changing
And I don't feel the same.

You're gone from here
Soon you will disappear
Fading into beautiful light
'Cause everybody's changing
And I don't feel right.

So little time
Try to understand that I'm
Trying to make a move just to stay in the game
I try to stay awake and remember my name
But everybody's changing
And I don't feel the same.

Everybody's changing
And I don't feel the same.

Take me away officer...

Ok. So a few days ago I was not having a good day... I needed to escape, getaway, combust... something. So I went to visit a friend and needless to say, I felt much better afterwards. =] (Thank you!) It was late and we said our goodbyes and I had a nice drive ahead of me...

Well. The first stoplight I came to was a joke. Why? Because I sat in the turning lane for 10 minutes (I'm not kidding) waiting for the green light. I was the only one in the intersection for a very long time, and then out of the blue - a car would show up, the light would turn green for them, they would go through, it would turn red again, and I would sit and wait for my light to turn green. Cause its my turn, right? NOoooo. I waited some more. And then it happened again. Another car would pull up, their light would turn green and so on... This happened about 5 times... My light was just not going to turn green!

I really wanted to get home cause I was tired, and this light was keeping me from my warm bed - so I said "Screw it!" really loudly in my car and put the pedal to the metal. hehe. I felt so hardcore.

So then, I put on some really good music and turned it wayyyy up and flew home. (If you've ever driven Hwy 46 then you know how fun it can be.) My speedometer only goes up to 110, so its quite possible I was going faster because my needle found a comfortable spot just past the max. So I'm driving along at incredibly unsafe speeds and I manage to make it to Hwy 1 unharmed. I pull a right turn and head north on 1. I stop at the stoplight to turn onto Ardath and look in my mirror... a car. Curious... I didn't see that before...

So I hook a left and bam! blue and red lights start flashing.

Whoopdee-freakin-doo.

I look to find a safe spot to pull over - I say 'safe' because my first choice was in fron of a fire hydrant... lol. I roll down my window, turn my car off, hand my head low and prepare for the worst. I hear a voice beside me say "Everything alright?" I look out my window and this is the man I saw... (but he was wearing a uniform and holding a flashlight)







Ok. So it wasn't THE Brandon Routh... but this is what I saw. My eyes played no tricks...
I can only imagine what my face must've looked like. 0_o This was the most beautiful man I've ever seen... and oh my god, I'm at his mercy. I struggled to keep composure, as I wanted to sound as normal and innocent as possible - and if you know me - that's a little out of my league. so I tell him how anxious I am to get home because of a rough day and listens. He kindly asks for my information, license, insurance, registration... and I fumble through my mess and give it to him. He asks if I knew why he pulled me over, and I honestly didn't know... so he flashes his smile (dimples!!) and tells me I rolled through the stop sign, aka: the California Roll. "You're kidding me." I said. "Nope" he replied "and you were also 20 miles over the speed limit." Its funny because he was still smiling. Not the "you're so busted and I'm so evil" smile, but the "you silly girl, don't you know?" kind of smile.
Again, keeping composure - not so easy.

I'm sooooo sure that I'm busted, it wasn't even funny. It's obvious I was breaking the law, rolling, speeding....

Then, he tells me my insurance form had expired. Crap! I grab another one out of my wallet and low and behold, that one expired last month. Doubly Crap! I'm done for....

He just laughs and asks me if I'm current, I know I am and I tell him so.

He believes me.

He asked before where I was headed and I told him my street. But at this point, I realize that my address on my license is different than the one I just told him. Ok again, I am soooo busted....

He doesn't notice.

So we exchange some playful banter and I told him how I almost parked next to the fire hydrant... he guesses that I've had a ticket before and again, laughs it off. This was a all a cruel, cruel dream.... Here I was, in my car... a sad pathetic delinquent with multiple law-breaking charges against me, and I'm chatting it up with the most gorgeous, kindest, understanding, gorgeous officer I've ever seen who kills me every time with his smile...

Anyways, he finally asks me "So, do I need to give you a citation for you to learn your lesson?"

(I realize, I'm home free...)

"No sir. I promise to be extra careful from now on."

"Ok then, I'll let you get home. Have a good night." (he flashes those dimples again... *sigh*)

And thats it.

Finished.

I sit in my car for a moment, gathering my thoughts... I see the Highway Patrol car drive away with dreamboy behind the wheel.

I'm both relieved and frustrated... I'm sure you can figure out why.

>=]


SO. The moral of the story??

Well, I'm going to leave that up to YOU, yes, you. Go ahead and post it for me in a comment, please... because all I can think about is 'accidentally" rolling through another stop sign...

Bachelorette - Bjork


I'm a fountain of blood
In the shape of a girl
You're the bird on the brim
Hypnotised by the Whirl

Drink me, make me feel real
Wet your beak in the stream
Game we're playing is life
Love is a two way dream

Leave me now, return tonight
Tide will show you the way
If you forget my name
You will go astray
Like a killer whale
Trapped in a bay

I'm a path of cinders
Burning under your feet
You're the one who walks me
I'm your one way street

I'm a whisper in water
Secret for you to hear
You are the one who grows distant
When I beckon you near

Leave me now, return tonight
The tide will show you the way
If you forget my name
You will go astray
Like a killer whale
Trapped in a bay

I'm a tree that grows hearts
One for each that you take
You're the intruder hand
I'm the branch that you break

Yes boys and girls, its that time again... all your lifes questions will be answered with this one, single post...

Not really. But I always get a kick out of reading about myself... and boredom + internet = crazy quiz taking. lol. Anyways, as always... feel free to take the test and show me your results, since I showed you mine. Fair is fair.

But again, no pressure.

P.S. These ones make me laugh because they're actually kinda accurate, yet, the two together make quite the contradiction in my opinion... which in turn, personifies my self-perspective... bloody net quizzes...


Which umbrella drink are you?

Cheyenne, you're a Relaxed Rum Runner

Taking it easy — that's how you prefer to handle whatever comes your way. Like a cool, blended rum runner, you like to keep a delicate balance between the sweet and sour things in life. Calm and collected, you're up for anything your friends throw your way, from joining a book club or taking an art class to trying every cocktail in your cookbook.

Bottom line — you're a laid-back soul who likes to stay connected with her friends and have a good time. Whenever the girls join forces — whether you're gabbing over pedicures or painting the town red — people count on you to hold the group together with your carefree and irresistible sense of fun. Stay cool!

What kind of movie are you?

Cheyenne, if you were a movie, you'd be a Suspenseful Thriller

Nothing is simple. Especially you. Like your movie match, you've got lots of plot twists, and you'd like to keep it that way. That's right, you're no open book.

Whether or not you actually lurk in the shadows, you do like to keep people in the dark sometimes. Mysterious and enigmatic, you keep people guessing. When they think they've got you figured out, you enjoy throwing a curve ball their way. Maybe it's the element of surprise that tickles your fancy. Perhaps it's the shock value. Or maybe you're just intensely private. In any case, you keep life intriguing and unpredictable. And that's what makes you such an interesting individual.

Open Your Eyes - Snow Patrol


All this feels strange and untrue
And I won't waste a minute without you
My bones ache, my skin feels cold
And I'm getting so tired and so old

The anger swells in my guts
And I won't feel these slices and cuts
I want so much to open your eyes
Cos I need you to look into mine

Tell me that you'll open your eyes
Tell me that you'll open your eyes
Tell me that you'll open your eyes
Tell me that you'll open your eyes

Get up, get out, get away from these liars
Cos they don't get your soul or your fire
Take my hand, knot your fingers through mine
And we'll walk from this dark room for the last time

Every minute from this minute now
We can do what we like anywhere
I want so much to open your eyes
Cos I need you to look into mine

Tell me that you'll open your eyes
Tell me that you'll open your eyes
Tell me that you'll open your eyes
Tell me that you'll open your eyes...

All this feels strange and untrue
And I won't waste a minute without you
