Yesterd...

Yesterday Brandon shared a piece of music with me that almost made me cry... because it was so bad. Though on the bright side, at least I'll get the chance to inflict the misery upon you all, mwahahaha! let y'all listen to it once it's complete. Heh heh heh.I'm blogging from Denton at the moment, drinking bad coffee and waiting for Brandon to get out of class. I find it somewhat ironic that even though I'm out of school, classes are still managing to affect my schedule. Though at least I don't have homework or tests or essays unless you count the, uh, "help" I might be offering to Brandon for his literature class.I'm thinking I might do a phone post later on. Stay tuned.

It's hot when guys sing in different languages

So, as part of his ongoing fundraising effort for Polaris (Brandon's eventual drum corps and ensembles), Brandon's going to have a concert thingy, with some aid from my mother -- who as most of you know, owns coffee shops in the Houston area, and thus has an instant venue of sorts. In any case, he sent me a recording of a song called "Mi Mancherai" a couple nights ago, informing me that this would be part of the program for said concert.Behold, the pretty. It's such a sad song, but is it ever gorgeous. If you can listen to it without getting a little misty-eyed, then you have no soul....Of course, I could be biased. Meh.Lyrics: Mi mancherai se te ne vaiMi mancherà la tua serenitàLe tue parole come canzoni al ventoE l'amore che ora porti viaMi mancherai se te ne vaiOra per sempre non so come vivereE l'allegria, amica mia, va via con teMi mancherai, mi mancherai, perchè vai viaPerchè l'amore in te si è spentoPerchè, perchè...Non cambierà niente lo soE dentro sento teMi mancherai, mi mancherai, perchè vai viaPerchè l'amore in te si è spentoPerchè, perchè...Non cambierà niente lo soE dentro sento teMi mancherà l'immensitàDei nostri giorni e notti insieme noiI tuoi sorrisi quando si fa buioLa tua ingenuità da bambina, tu...Mi mancherai amore mioMi guardo e trovo un vuoto dentro meE l'allegria, amica mia, va via con teI will miss you if you goI will miss your serenityYour words like songs to the windAnd the love that you take away with youI will miss you if you goNow and foreverI don't know how I'd liveAnd my friend HappinessWill go with youI will miss you, I will miss youWhy are you going away?Why has the love in you died?Why, why?Nothing will change, I knowAnd inside I feel youI will miss the intensityOf our days and nights togetherYour smiles when it's darkYour childlike innocence, youI will miss you, my loveI look at myself and find a void inside meAnd my friend HappinessWill go with you

Because I've been on a Mystery Science Theatre 3000 kick for the past few weeks (this one's from the best worst action-crime-drama ever, Mitchell); and since the MST3K is largely enabled by Brandon's growing library of DVDs, the double entendre was too good to pass up. ;)

I'm g...

I'm going to church this morning, so that I can use my afternoon to drive over to Denton and arrive roughly around the time when Brandon gets off work.I am so looking forward to getting out of this town today. But not because I get to see Brandon -- pshaw, whatever. Who cares about that? I'm just glad to be getting AWAY from the evil cedar pollen for a few days. Maybe by Tuesday I won't be athsmatic and my throat won't be sore. That would be awesome.

Still with t...

Still with the sickness, except I'm starting to think that it's not just a cold: I'm concerned that I may have developed an allergy to cedar. Almost everyone at work is suffering from the same symptoms and it's all because of the cedar fever.In better news, though, I've made myself a big pot of baked potato soup, with celery and broccoli. And it is good. I can cook, people! I'm finally catching up to the kitchen in our culinary war. The score now stands:Teri: 6Kitchen: 9371097958I am so gaining on it! Oh, Kitchen, you've won your last battle!

Well, I've fi...

Well, I've finally gotten sick. Sore throat, headache, conjestion, body aches. Oh, and yes, I do still have to work at 2.30 and close tonight. Good times.I'm slurping down mint tea like it's going out of style. When I get to work this afternoon, I'll make our Starbucks secret cold concoction. One bag wild sweet orange tea steeped in half a cup of water, two packs of honey, and the rest filled with steamed lemonade concentrate. One of the benefits of working behind the bar is that we can come up with crazy stuff like this.I've felt really out of sorts for the past week. I'm not entirely sure of all the reasons why -- last week was sort of an unexpected emotional rollercoaster and it made even my visit with Brandon a little weird over the weekend. I think it's just a post-holiday slump, currently exacerbated by the fact that I've caught this illness.*wanders off to drink more tea*
