"Far Away"

Another "so my life right now" song. I miss you, FOAL.


This time, This place
Misused, Mistakes
Too long, Too late
Who was I to make you wait
Just one chance
Just one breath
Just in case there’s just one left
‘Cause you know, you know, you know
That I love youI have loved you all along
And I miss you
Been far away for far too long
I keep dreaming you’ll be with me and you’ll never go
Stop breathing if I don’t see you anymore
On my knees, I’ll ask
Last chance for one last dance
‘Cause with you, I’d withstand
All of hell to hold your hand
I’d give it all
I’d give for us
Give anything but I won’t give up
‘Cause you know, you know, you know
That I love you
I have loved you all along
And I miss you
Been far away for far too long
I keep dreaming you’ll be with me and you’ll never go
Stop breathing if I don’t see you anymore
So far away
Been far away for far too long
So far away
Been far away for far too long
But you know, you know, you know
I wanted you to stay
‘Cause I needed
I need to hear you say
That I love you
I have loved you all along
And I forgive you
For being away for far too long
So keep breathing
‘Cause I’m not leaving
Hold on to me and never let me go

{beach books}


My new issue of Costal Living came yesterday and set me on quest for "beach books." Here are the favorites I have found so far:


Vent of the day: My crappy Dell Pocket DJ broke yesterday. This is the second one Dell has sent because the DJ has had the same powering off issues. I think it's time for an iPod.

I suppose it's a fact of life that those around us will disappoint us from time to time. People can't always live up to our standards or expectations, no matter how "reachable" those 'bars' may be. Letting go of the disappointment is hard; just as it's hard to forgive the person who has let us down. I know that not letting go of the hurt and negative feelings is much more damaging to me than anyone else, but my father is right- I wear my heart on my sleeve. I internalize things much more than I should.

What I really need now is a beach and book...good thing Mexico is only three days away.

{update}

DIERKS BENTLEY & KENNY CHESNEY
Kenny Chesney was AMAZING! None of my pictures really turned out that well but the show was fantastic. I have to admit, though, if I was forced to choose between Dierks Bentley and Kenny Chesney, I would pick Dierks. He's so incredibly cute and sexy. Love that boy!




MEXICO
KMB just invited us all to Rocky Point over the 4th of July! Her father rented a beach house and wants us all to come down. Never been to Mexico before so I am CRAZY EXCITED to go!

{trying to love you}

Anyone who knows me understands how fitting this song is for me right now.

I blew out all my plans.
The world fell in my hands,
The day that I began,
Tryin' to love you.
The secrets I have kept;
The nights I haven't slept.
I've laughed until I've wept,
Tryin' to love you.
Tryin' to love you... No one's come as close or gone so far,
Tryin' to love you... I've lost and found myself in who you are.
Tryin' to love you... So easy and so hard tryin' to love you.
I've watched myself get stuck,
I squandered all my luck.
I've almost given up,
Tryin' to love you.
Tryin' to love you... Broke my heart; it's chipped away my pride.
Tryin' to love you... Every time, I'd see that fault line slide.
Tryin' to love you.... I've crossed the great divide tryin' to love you.
Tryin' to love you... I've screamed your name, I've slammed a thousand doors.
Tryin' to love you... An' I've worn a million miles across the floor.
Tryin' to love you... Still I could not ignore tryin' to love you.
It's pulled the best from me,
For all the world to see.
I guess I'll always be,
Tryin' to love you.

{tonight's the night}

KENNY CHESNEY!!!!

{i'm going!}

After much begging, pleading and, yes, a couple of tears, I have my very own ticket to see the sold out muscial, Wicked, in August! I'm so happy I would run through the Alps waving window treatments.

On related news, I think I've found a new place to live when my lease is up in October.

And, one of my favorite LDS authors, Kerry Blair, recently contacted me to let me know I was the winner of the contest on her website. Check it out! My mom will love that Kerry is sending my e-mail address to her son! LOL. If you've not read any of Kerry's books, DO IT NOW! They are great.

{world's shortest fairytale}




THE WORLD'S SHORTEST FAIRYTALE

Once upon a time, a girl asked a guy "will you marry me?"

The guy said "No."

And the girl lived happily ever after and went shopping, dancing, drank Strawberries N' Creme Frappucinos, always had a clean house, never had to cook, stayed skinny and farted whenever she wanted.

The End.

{pink suede}

I went with the Pink Suede instead of the Pink Latte.
