Muses and Angels

Most people that know me know I have a thing for songs sung by women. I don't know how many remakes of songs I've liked just because it's sung by a female vocalist. I think there's probably some deeper psychological reasons for this but I probably attribute it most for growing up in a house with just my mom and my sister, and growin up in an Asian family where the emotional displays of affection rival those of a vulcan on prozac. Not really sure if I'm happy I'm using a Star Trek reference there but hey whatever works.

Donovan leaves for school in AZ in August. I'm totally happy for him but of course sad to see him go. Meh, just means I have another place I can jet off to when I need an emergency get away. Just this one would be involving warm weather and hot coeds. Interesting.

Work still is rough. I used the analogy the other day with one of my bosses, "You guys told me to build a house, gave me some wood and some nails but no hammer." He laughed and nodded...

Crap gotta run to a meeting, will post more later.

These are the words that ring in my head with the clear sound of her voice when I'm feeling a little... off. What am I, a teenage girl? DOH!

Michelle Branch - All You Wanted

I wanted to be like you
I wanted everything
So I tried to be like you
And I got swept away

I didn’t know that it was so cold
And you needed someone
To show you the way
So I took your hand and we figured out
That when the tide comes
I’d take you away

If you want to
I can save you
I can take you away from here
So lonely inside
So busy out there
And all you wanted
Was somebody who cares

I’m sinking slowly
So hurry hold me
Your hand is all I have to keep me hanging on
Please can you tell me
So I can finally see
Where you go when you’re gone

If you want to
I can save you
I can take you away from here
So lonely inside
So busy out there
And all you wanted
Was somebody who cares

All you wanted was somebody who cares
If you need me you know I’ll be there
Oh, yeah

If you want to
I can save you
I can take you away from here
So lonely inside
So busy out there
And all you wanted
Was somebody who cares

Please can you tell me
So I can finally see
Where you go when you’re gone
