Beautiful pic.

Beefy daddy.

I think he needs his back scrubbed.

So cute.

Wet fur.

Damn.

Damn damn.

Sexy.

Ripped and wet.

Gorgeous.

Grrrrr.

Sexy chest.

LOL.

Lots of yummy fur.

So cute.

Dapper.

Dazzling.

Hmmmm.

Ginger loveliness.

UNF.

Drool.

Gorgeous fur and eyes.

Assume the position.

Sigh.

Handsome.

Big beef.

DOMA struck down this week and I bawled like a baby in my office. Never in a million years thought I would see this in my lifetime.

Prop 8 dismissed on a technicality, which means no over-arching decision on gay marriage, but at least it means marriages in California are now legal.

And in related news, Scalia go fuck yourself.

In more related news, if Thomas really was chewing gum during the announcement of the decisions, he does not need to be on the Supreme Court. That was severely disrespectful.

And in still more related news, Tim Huelskamp go fuck yourself.

This is so me....except I would have said "existing."

Common sense says that if I have not responded to your last 10 messages to me, it is highly unlikely I am going to respond to the 11th.

Someone commented on my relationship with a former friend, stating that he couldn't determine whether we were terrible friends or really great enemies. I thought it was a very apt description. Honestly, I have no ill will to the person, I just realized there was nothing to be gained from either of us remaining friends so opted to just bow out of it.

I want to see this exhibit so bad.

What is up with women wearing nude color shoes all of sudden? They look like they are wearing silly putty.

I had a blast two weekends ago at Peach Party here in Atlanta (Atlanta's version of a circuit party).  I think I am still recovering from all the fun.

At work, I really to remind myself that when I have my headphones on to remember whether my office door is open or not.

Amen sister.

Last time I checked alcohol was considered a drug.

While I really couldn't care less about the Paula Deen scandal, it amazes me how quick people were to pillory her for something that she admitted to saying 20 years ago. Do I think she is racist? Probably not. But I am sure all of us have things we have said in anger or stupidity 20 years ago too. Am I worried about Paula Deen? No. She's a millionaire, and once this has died down, she will continue to be a millionaire.

Not sure why this came up, but here are my Top Ten favorite Madonna songs (not in any order):

"Gone"
"Bad Girl"
"Give It To Me"
"Physical Attraction"
"Deeper and Deeper"
"Sanctuary"
"Drowned World/Substitute For Love"
"Music"
"Get Together"
"Heartbeat"

Strangely, the new Black Sabbath album doesn't suck.

Yep.

What is with the strange insistence on using Skype these days?

Cloud Atlas is a phenomenal movie. I need to see it again so I can catch all the stuff I missed the first time.

I really hate when there is a lull in work and I have nothing to do. Starts making me paranoid.

Why can't people just be honest?

How am I just figuring out that Jody Watley was in Shalamar?

Agreed.

It's amazing how many people I know that drop off the face of the earth when they start dating someone.

Some people need to have photoshop taken away from them.

Why is it I always want to get a tattoo during the summer, which is the worst time to get one?

Don't get me wrong, I can immerse myself in electronic music all day long, but sometimes I just need a guitar based album. Unfortunately, the new Lloyd Cole is not fitting the bill.

Shorts are never appropriate at a nice restaurant.

Your cute for the day.

Lyrics Rattling Around My Brain

"I was born with my back to the stars
Turn me over, I’d like to see
Here comes the morning to end our dream
Turn me over, I’d like to see
I was born with my back to the stars
Please see that they tell my truth
Please see that they tell my truth
So who’s your favorite superhero?
Or did we lose the fear?
Or maybe we just don’t need saving
But while we’re here
Could you tell me when the lights come on?
This does not feel like home
If it’s something that I paid for
It should be something that I own
So don’t we look pretty with nowhere to go?
It’s cool to be lonely, didn’t you know?
I think I’ll marry a stranger that I met online
It’s not that it’s not love, it’s just a sign of the times
Of the time
If only we could learn some patience
I’ll take a course
Or maybe we should split the money
Go straight for divorce
Could you tell me when we fall in love?
Or just write it down
Let me know if you find my feelings
Just if you see them around
So don’t we look pretty with nowhere to go?
It’s cool to be lonely, didn’t you know?
I think I’ll marry a stranger that I met online
It’s not that it’s not love, it’s just a sign of the times
Of the time
Oh, I need a feeling, I need a fix
To take me on driving, we could sleep in the stakes
It’s too much, too easy, long for the chase
I long for the gaps and the words, I long for the space
So don’t we look pretty with nowhere to go?
It’s cool to be lonely, didn’t you know?
I think I’ll marry a stranger that I met online
It’s not that it’s not love, it’s just a sign of the times
Of the time."

Until the Ribbon Breaks
"2025"

"Big Light
I was stuck in the ground
Trying to cover my eyes.
Trying to move all this light.
I spent all night
Trying to remember your face.
Like trying to get blood from a stone.
But there was nothing to save.
And no one to lie to.
And I watched as the bone dust hung in the sky.
Like a dim flock of endless prayers.
And I spent my days out chasing the wind.
Trying to turn gold from your hair.
But there was nothing to save
In the flux and decay
Of the changing winds."

Houses
"Big Light"

"When you come to me,
I'll question myself again;
Is this grip on life still my own?

When every step I take
Leads me so far away,
Every thought should bring me closer home.

And there you stand,
Making my life possible.
Raise my hands up to heaven,
But only you could know.

My whole world stands in front of me,
By the look in your eyes.
By the look in your eyes.
My whole life stretches in front of me,
Reaching up like a flower,
Leading my life back to the soil.

Every plan I've made's
Lost in the scheme of things.
Within each lesson lies the price to learn.

A reason to believe
Divorces itself from me;
Every hope I hold lies in my arms.

And there you stand,
Making my life possible.
Raise my hands up to heaven,
But only you could know.

My whole world stands in front of me,
By the look in your eyes.
By the look in your eyes.
My whole life stretches in front of me,
Reaching up like a flower,
Leading my life back to the soil."
