The Evil Plot Twist...

So in every movie, book, etc....well good ones at least, there is evil plot twist. Something has to go wrong. It's inevitable. Whether it's a love triangle, the team is failing, or the hero gets a set back....the rise to a joyful ending can't happen without first having the leading character/s go through some drama.

My favorite is and will always be the love triangle. Why? Because watching people become idiots over love is just plain amusing. I want the hero to win, and the underdog to come out on top in the last seconds of the game, but what can be more exhilarating than a guy or gal losing it for love. I mean people do some crazy, crazy things when they are smitten. They stop eating, or eat too, they stop doing their jobs well, or on time (gee don't want to have any surgeries from a heartbroken surgeon). People will risk it all when love goes awry. They fear it will pass them by and they'll end up alone.  That's the real issue isn't it? Being alone. It isn't so bad when you have the dream of love still being out there for you, but what if it's not.

You go to school, work really hard, get the perfect job, work that job for years and years till you're right where you want to be and then suddenly....a bomb goes off in your head and you start to think, "Hey, I don't want to be alone forever." You start dating just because you have this perfect time-line in your mind, you know... now that everything else has fallen into place. What you fail to realize is that love is the great crux! It is that arrow to the heart of all you hold dear, your job, your waist line,.. your sanity. Finally finding love means you'll most likely have to make certain compromises in other areas of your life. The best part is...that if the love is real and the intoxication is lasting, you won't care at all. You won't care if you lose all you worked so hard to acquire (well maybe not the waistline). And you will have gained the best thing you've ever known, or will ever experience again.

Enjoy the crazy ride called love. It is worth it!

Phoenix

The love or crazy idea of it,
only time I've had some fun
since it's begun, I'm undone
can't let you go

You've got secrets, I'll keep them,
won't tell a soul, pretend I don't know
whisper and I'll hear you
say nothing and I will fall

I hate this, and it's nothing
with me it's all or over
I'm undone. Can't figure it out.
With pressing words unsaid, I'm surrounded
I hate this. Hate that I miss you at all.

I wanted to be over it
the loneliness I feel keeps growing
It draws me your way,
Sometimes I wonder why

Stay mean, stay cold,
Stay the way you were always
I don't need you, just the crazy thought
I can live on that, till another

I hate this, and it's nothing
with me it's all or over
I'm undone. Can't figure it out.
With pressing words unsaid, I'm surrounded
I hate this. Hate that I miss you at all.

Don't be safe, please don't be sane
Can't stand the thought of you in a box
I've always lived there, it's not easy
Makes me bend your way

Don't ask what I wanted, I was stupid
I kept it simple, kept it calm
Safe is just a cage I've built myself
The doors wide open now

I hate this, and it's nothing
with me it's all or over
I'm undone. Can't figure it out.
With pressing words unsaid, I'm surrounded
I hate this. Hate that I miss you at all.

Just tell me, I'll follow
I'm ok now, just need a way out
I'm not the girl I used to be
a tidal wave, at the limit
a phoenix, can't you see now

Stay the same, don't change
dangerous, tender, and unmoved
I'll hate to leave you, never to pursue
loneliness is not the end
You have me

I hate this, and it's nothing
with me it's all or over
I'm undone. Can't figure it out.
With pressing words unsaid, I'm surrounded
I hate this. Hate that I miss you at all.

Back on Track....sort of

So this week was kind of whirl wind for me. Acupuncture drama Tuesday. Hair drama Wednesday. Headache Thursday. But then good news on Thursday did me some good. Found out a friend was coming to town. Someone I had wanted to see for a while.
Back to bad news....I had to work all weekend. Errggg...! Good news is I still got to spend some time with my friend and have some much needed fun.

I actually have been a bit silly and bit crazy over it. Nothing out of the blue for me.

Looking forward to more good times soon.
