Lovely Song

I Always Liked That Best
by Cyndi Thomson


Where do I start
Lyin' on a blanket underneath the stars
With your head on my chest
I always liked that best
I hate how time flies
I still think back sometimes
'Bout your lips on my neck
I always liked that best
That time we took a ride
Ended up down by the river side
Soft touch, wet kiss I always liked that best


I like the way you used to hold me
I like the way you came to know me
You came to know me well, well, well


Fallin' to sleep
Wearing your shirt cause it smelled so sweet
Who could forget
I always liked that best
Or losing my heart every time you sang to me on your guitar
"Lady in Red"
I always liked that best
I like the way you used to hold me
I like the way you came to know me
You came to know me well, well, well


I could go on so many things
I miss now that you're gone your love, oh yes
I always liked that best

Pretty Damn Good Entertainment

New show. Lots of fun, action and suspense. It also happens to star one of my favorite actors, Nathan Fillion (Firefly, Serenity, Slither, "Caleb" from Buffy The Vampire Slayer). The premiere episode is a little slow since it's about character introduction but the second episode definately picks up speed straight from the get-go. It airs tonight on Fox at 8/7c. Tune in and have fun. The link to the official site is http://www.fox.com/drive/. The link to the ever-so- fabulous Nathan Fillion's MySpace page is http://www.myspace.com/nathanfillion

Another One Of Those Nights

Another late night and I'm deep cleaning my kitchen. Got a great book called. "extraordinary uses for ordinary things" (yes, it's all in small caps) and there's a section in there for cleaning with baking soda. To clean the set-in grease spills on the stove top just wet it down and sprinkle baking soda on top and let it sit for a couple of minutes and then take a sponge to it. Surprisingly enough it actually works. Took off those cooked on grease spots without much effort. Even whitens your whites better when combined with bleach. Just toss in 1/2 cup baking soda into the rinse cycle when you put your bleach in and you'll notice the difference. Very interesting stuff in there.
   Lately the weather's been nice. Warm/hot during the day and chilly at night but not cold enough to need the heaters. Getting all my laundry done (since the clothes get dry faster in this warm weather) and I finally got the beginnings of a small garden going. Nothing planted although I have a few tomato plants and a few crooked neck squash plants set aside but I have a box built and it's half full of soil. Just need to fill it up and get my plants in there. Still working on that part.
   So many thoughts going through my head tonight. Fragments of rambling prose and broken memories. Maybe it's not the memories that are broken, maybe it's me. Makes sense. Sometimes there's a sense of loss for what was even though what was was never true. Kicked around, tossed aside and left behind. But I caught up. I caught up and passed them by. They're resentful because I never looked back. Left my compassion and humanity on the side of the road with my original idea of 'family.' Left it all behind. Now I'm broken but the pieces are glued together with piss and vinegar and I don't know what irritates them more: that I survived them and became stronger than the whole lot of them combined or the fact that I exist at all. Should've aborted me when she had the chance. But then, who would she have blamed for her mistakes? Who would she have tossed to the dogs then? Guess I was good for something after all, wasn't I?

Pathfinder

Playing nationwide tonight. Go see it. Wish I could but I'm broke this week (again) so I'm going to have to wait at least a couple of weeks for my theater experience. Go see it and report back. I want to know if it blew your minds or not. How could it not? Vikings vs. early Native Americans 500 years before Columbus set foot on the east coast. If you were wondering it stars Karl Urban, Jay Tavare, Clancy Brown, Nathaniel Arcand and Moon Bloodgood. Go, enjoy and let me know how it turned out.

Sometimes We All Need A Little Reminder

This evening I was hanging out my laundry and when I glanced up to look at the new growth coming in on the trees out in the woods I realized that there was a bit of a pink tinge to the scenery. When I looked over my shoulder I had to take a moment to just drink in the sunset. Pale pink slowly burned down to a darker, more lush palette of colors. I had to take some pictures but unfortunately the lense never quite captures the brilliance and beauty that the eyes see and the mind processes. The pics were still pretty but I wasn't able to get the depth. I was only mildly disappointed. I can't stand being in Mississippi but I have found a few things to like: sweet tea (with no lemon), sausage gravy and biscuits night or day, the clarity of the night sky and the brilliance of the constellations, cloud formations, fireflies, and the sunsets. Sometimes I forget that my life isn't as bad as it could be or as bad as it used to be and sometimes I need those brilliant moments to remind me of that. This evening's sunset did just that for me. I don't have much family left but those that I count as my true family are healthy, nobody's suffering and nobody's hurting for anything that they need. I can't really ask for more than that and I won't. I miss the sunsets from my hometown but now I have new ones to add to my memory bank. Life is good. Not great, but good.
