I have calmed down

Well I have calmed down some from yesterday but I still am pissed off about those comments. It takes an awful lot to get me riled, but then I hang on to it. I hope that I can carry on a calm and rational conversation with people without it disintegrating into a shouting match.


I just went outside to let the dog visit his girlfriend. The neighbors said that the little white mutt who lives down the street was over the door trying to get in our house (there's a steel door-might be hard,eh?). That dog runs all over. Ours got loose the other day and I had to walk 2 blocks to get him. Not good for the foot.




I am waiting for my new operating system, but being the dummy that I am, I didn't closely look at the shipping instructions and it is being delivered to our old address. I called our old landlord and asked him to ask his tenant to accept it and give it to him. He'll call me when it gets there and we'll go over and pick it up. DUMB. ME.



I have to take the jump and call Salie Mae and a couple of other lenders to see if I can get a career change loan so i can take the paralegal course. If I enroll I am committed to see it to the end. That is on my list of things to do. Prayers are requested.




I have my PT set up through November. 1 day a week. The newest exercises make me look like a beached vulture. LOL. Laying on a yoga ball with my arms outstretched moving them back and forth.....Horrible visual.




I want to get Chess the Musical, the PBS special to watch. It's got Josh Groban, Adrian Pascal, and Idina Menzel. It's soo good. I love to listen to
Anthem:

No man, no madness
Though their sad power may prevail
Can possess, conquer, my country's heart

They rise to fail
She is eternal
Long before nations' lines were drawn
When no flags flew when no armies stood
My land was born

And you ask me why I love her
Through wars, death and despair
She is the constant
We who don't care
And you wonder will I leave her - but how?
I cross over boarders but I'm still there now

How can I leave her?
Where would I start?
Let man's petty nations tear themselves apart
My land's only boarders lie
Around my heart

Nobody's On Nobody's Side


What's going on around me
Is barely making sense
I need some explanations fast
I see my present partner
In the imperfect tense
And I don't see how we can last
I feel I need a change of cast
Maybe I'm on nobody's side.

And when he gives me reasons
To justify each move
They're getting harder to believe
I know this can't continue
I've still a lot to prove
There must be more I could achieve
But I don't have the nerve to leave.

Everybody's playing the game
But nobody's rules are the same
Nobody's on nobody's side
Better learn to go it alone
Recognize you're out on your own
Nobody's on nobody's side.

The one I should not think of
Keeps rolling through my mind
And I don't want to let that go
No lovers ever faithful
No contract truly signed
There's nothing certain left to know
And how the cracks begin to show!

Never make a promise or plan
Take a little love where you can
Nobody's on nobody's side
Never stay too long in your bed
Never lose your heart, use your head
Nobody's on nobody's side.

Never take a stranger's advice
Never let a friend fool you twice
Nobody's on nobody's side
Never be the first to believe
Never be the last to deceive
Nobody's on nobody's side
And never leave a moment too soon
Never waste a hot afternoon
Nobody's on nobody's side
Never stay a minute too long
Don't forget the best will go wrong
Nobody's on nobody's side.

Better learn to go it alone
Recognize you're out on your own
Nobody's on nobody's side.



Well enough of all that. Rick Sanchez is skewering Chris Brown. What an ass Brown is.
