Life is a mystery, everyone must stand alone...
I guess what keeps things "fresh" in a relationship is finding out new things about each other - not with respect to what is "good or bad" or "right or wrong" ... just...perspective/values/beliefs. And at the end...if it works it works, and if it doesn't, it doesn't. Like my friend says...what you gonna do?
I Know
I know loneliness
Loneliness of the imprisoned
I know fear
Fear of losing oneself
I know joy
Joy of being rescued by a friend
I know
So don't think I don't
I know
So don't think I won't
I know pain
Pain of the broken hearted
I know love
Love of the forbidden
I know happiness
Happiness of the innocent

Your mission, should you decide to accept it
Mission: Hard to Believe
Level: Difficult
Your mission, should you decide to accept it, is to escape The Village in the middle of the night, undetected with all your belongings. Then drive off into the night with the music blasting out of the Ford Focus. Observed obstacles: drunk sleeping person on the living room floor, unpacked luggage, randomly scattered items, loud creaking doors and dark lighting. Available resources: BlackBerry.
Turning on the lights was not an option. So of course I had to rely on my handy BB to show me the way. Believe me, it was not easy finding and packing everything (I forgot the toothbrush and took the wrong headset). I wasn't sure that I would be able to pull it off successfully. But I did. A new skill to put on the resume. I even straightened my hair before I left at 5am.

Cosmic Coincidence
Unbelievable, the weather here is fine, the weather in Dallas is fine, yet somehow my flight has been delayed. Again. I'm sure it has to do with all the delays in the East Coast.
Strangest thing though. I bumped into an old acquaintance at the airport. Here I was standing in the middle of the terminal trying to figure out where concourse E is and I guess the brief moment of confusion allowed the person the chance to catch grab my arm. And here I was wondering who the heck it could be. The thing is, we never really hung out or really had a lot to talk about...but here we are, at the Minneapolis airport swapping numbers...he'll be in MN every week for about a year...same as me. Wow. I'm still kind of shocked.

A broken heart...that's still beating
Love the new Lifehouse album - Who We Are. Will be seeing them on tour at First Avenue in Minneapolis, can't wait!! Here's one of my favourite songs from the Album...
The Broken clock is a comfort
It helps me sleep tonight
Maybe it can stop tomorrow
From stealing all my time
And I am here still waiting
Though I still have my doubts
I am damaged at best
Like you've already figured out
Chorus:
I'm falling apart
I'm barely breathing
With a broken heart
That's still beating
In the pain
There is healing
In your name
I find meaning
So I'm holding on (I'm holdin on)(I'm holdin on)
I'm barely holding on to you
The broken locks were a warning
You got inside my head
I tried my best to be guarded
I'm an open book instead
And I still see your reflection
Inside of my eyes
That are looking for purpose
They're still looking for life
Repeat Chorus
I'm hanging on another day
Just to see what, you will throw my way
And I'm hanging on, to the words you say
You said that I will, will be okay
The broken light on the freeway
Left me here alone
I may have lost my way now
But I haven't forgotten my way home
Repeat Chorus
Storm is great too!
Lifehouse - Broken
It helps me sleep tonight
Maybe it can stop tomorrow
From stealing all my time
And I am here still waiting
Though I still have my doubts
I am damaged at best
Like you've already figured out

I'm barely breathing
With a broken heart
That's still beating

I'm barely holding on to you
The broken locks were a warning
You got inside my head
I tried my best to be guarded
I'm an open book instead
And I still see your reflection
Inside of my eyes
That are looking for purpose
They're still looking for life
Repeat Chorus

Just to see what, you will throw my way
And I'm hanging on, to the words you say
You said that I will, will be okay

But I haven't forgotten my way home

Summit Ave
Saw them for the first time last night at Bunkers located on Washington Ave. They were pretty good! You can check them out on www.myspace.com/summitave. Although I must say that they sound much better live than they do on their recordings.
Ben, the lead singer, sounds like Rob Thomas from Matchbox 20, or perhaps Live (when he sings Simple - awesome song btw). He also kinda looks like the lead singer from Duran Duran with a hint of Leonardo DiCaprio. They're playing again at Bunkers in a few weeks, will probably check them out again!
