Friday's Game

These are photos Rick took at last night's Dayton Dragons game. The game ended due to rain around the sixth or seventh inning :(

 

Dragons

These are Ronald Bueno and Gavin Lavalley, 2 players for the Dayton Dragons. Rick is taking me to a Dragons game tomorrow evening. It will be nice to get out,, kind of a change in rreality, if you will. My reality isn't going so well.  Don't talk about dinner at the dinner table.....

"I Fell For Guys Who Tried To Commit Suicide...."

My ex died in December. My parents knew then, but didn't tell me for fear of upsetting me.
I found his obit last week. This song (esp the 1st verse) makes me think of him, so this one's for you, MM.
Driver Education
by Amy Ray

I fell for guys who tried to commit suicide
With soft rock hair and blood shot eyes
He tastes like Marlboro cigarettes, Reese's peanut butter cups
A Pepsi in his hand, gettin' off the school bus

Films and drills and safety illustrations
The crushed cars of driver education, driver education

Now it's tattooed girls with a past they can't remember
Who pledged allegiance to a life of bendin' the curriculum
She tastes like spring, there she goes again
Drinkin' with the older guys, trippin' by the lakeside

Films and drills and safety illustrations
The crushed cars of driver education, driver education

When you were sweet sixteen yeah, I was already mean
Feelin' bad for givin' it up to the man just to make the scene
Where were you, back when I had somethin' to prove
The switchblade set and the church kids learnin' my moves?

I ran for miles through the suburbs of the seventies
Pollen dust and Pixie sticks, kissin' in the deep end
Of swimmin' pools before I knew what's in there
We come into this life waterlogged and tender

Films and drills and safety illustrations
The crushed cars of driver education

Films and drills and safety illustrations
The crushed cars of driver education

Driver education, driver education
Driver education, driver education

Driver education, driver education
Driver education, driver education

 

Dem Picnic

Me, at the Butler County Democratic Party picnic yesterday. For some unknown reason, I look stoned!

Amy

Listening to "Back to Black" by Amy Winehouse. I found this picture someone did of her on the internet:

Amy was a special talent, and I hope, wherever she may be, she finds the peace that eluded her in life.  Goodnight, Amy..... 

For My Guardian Angel

"Say Goodbye"
Dave Matthews Band

So here we are tonight
You and me together
The storm outside, the fire is bright
And in your eyes I see
What's on my mind
You've got me wild
Turned around inside
And then desire, see, is creeping
Up heavy inside here
And know you feel the same way
I do now
Now let's make this an evening
Lovers for a night, lovers for tonight
Stay here with me, love, tonight
Just for an evening
When we make
Our passion pictures
You and me twist up
Secret creatures
And we'll stay here
Tomorrow go back to being friends

Go back to being friends
But tonight let's be lovers,
We kiss and sweat
We'll turn this better thing
To the best
Of all we can offer, Just a rogue kiss
Tangled tongues and lips,
See me this way
I'm turning and turning for you
Girl just tonight

Float away here with me
An evening just wait and see
But tomorrow go back to your man
I'm back to my world
And we're back to being friends
Wait and see me,
Tonight let's do this thing
All we are is wasting hours until the sun comes up it's all ours
On our way here
Tomorrow go back to being friends

Go back to being friends
Tonight let's be lovers, say you will
And hear me call, soft-spoken whispering love
A thing or two I have to say here
Tonight let's go all the way then
Love I'll see you,
Just for this evening
Let's strip down, trip out at this
One evening starts with a kiss
Run away

And tomorrow
back to being friends
Lovers...love...lovers
Just for tonight, one night...love you
And tomorrow say goodbye

"big wheel"

I've been on the other side
Got my lips smacked now they're dry
Then you call me, call me in
You think I am your possession

You're messing with a southern girl
But my recipe is on with your stale bread
Yeah, it's hot but baby I don't need your cash
So baby, maybe I let your

Big wheel turn my fantasy
Don't you throw that shade on me
I've been drinkin' down your pain
Gonna turn that whiskey into rain

Wash it away
Wash it away
Wash it away boy
Let's go

I've been on my knees, but you're so hard, hard to please
Did you take me, take me in
So you are a superstar
Get off the cross we need the wood

Somehow you will rise, but without a tool
I know honey you're a pro
But baby I don't need your cash
Mama got it all in hand now

Big wheel turn my fantasy
Don't you throw that shade on me
I've been drinkin' down your pain
Gonna turn that whiskey into rain

Wash it away
Wash it away boy
Wash it away now

Gimme 8, gimme 7, gimme 6
Gimme 5, gimme 4, gimme 3

I I I' am a M I L F don' you forget
M I L F don' you forget
M I L F don' you forget

Baby I don't need your cash
So baby maybe I let your

Big wheel turn my fantasy
Don't you throw that shade on me
I've been drinkin' down your pain
Gonna turn that whiskey into rain

Big wheel turn my fantasy
Don't you throw that shade on me
I've been drinkin' down your pain
Gonna turn that whiskey love into rain
Gonna turn your whiskey boy into rain

Wash it away
Wash you away boy
Wash you down, big wheel
