Everyone knows the joke. George R.R. Martin, Josh Whedon, and Steve Moffat walk into a bar. Everyone dies. Now, you can be a proud owner of The OftDead Club members shirt. There is a two death minimum to be a member. As Buffy said, "Hey, I died twice!"

Check it out here!

I had two songs pop into my head this week. Why? I have no f*ing idea.

Bereft

It's hard to breathe with half a heart

The pain alone can kill

What starts with tearing asunder

Results in agony and woe distilled

Half my heart resides elsewhere

You've taken it away

The pair of us are both bereft

But close to me you will not stay

Until you return to me, my love

I sit and wait and sigh

Above all that I pray that you

Return to me before I die

So the Dr told me the same thing I have been told before but it hit a bit harder this time. Get rid of the equipment you aren't using. (I'm paraphrasing.) I was writing poetry on the subject ten years ago, and I remember it being mentioned further back then that.

Apart

How I wish you were here

To keep away the fright

This decision isn't easy. This burden isn't light.

__________________________

When the world seems weary

And pain blossoms bright

This decision isn't easy. This burden isn't light.

__________________________

I'd sign away our future

To end my current plight

This decision isn't easy. This burden isn't light.

__________________________

Will you come to hate me?

Will the pattern turn out right?

My decision isn't easy. Your burden isn't light.

__________________________

__________________________

Together

I see the path before me lying

I admit I couldn't before

I want to be there for your sorrow

That's what partners are for

I understand. I bear your burdens gladly.

__________________________

The pattern is so clear now

As wheels unwind and turn

Were you to light the match

I'd simply watch the world burn

I understand. I bear your burdens gladly.

__________________________

When our secrets are discovered

And all the world seems lost

We will burn together

No matter how high the cost

I understand. I bear your burdens gladly.

__________________________

But when the tide is changing

And all the lights are pale

Will you stand beside me,

To finish the drawn out tale?

Do you understand? Will you bear my burdens gladly?____________________________________________________

If I start a countdown now

Countdown (168)

That doesn’t make me horrible

It just makes me tired

Sick of the pain and heartbreak

It’s a purposeless fight

Burning through energy

I could use so much more

Time better spent elsewhere

If there is a reason

I can’t find it

Like a vestigial organ

No longer needed

Why should I suffer

If I will never

Bare a mother’s fate?

I don’t need to suffer

To be a woman

If I will never be a mother

As Lady MacBeth said

Unsex me here

Please?

[rainbowjay20]

Very Raw first attempt. It was supposed to be a love song. It ended up more like a Folksie sounding almost Church song. I think it needs another verse yet. And accompaniment. But as a WIP it's okay.

[rainbowjay20]

I hate waiting for test results...

[rainbowjay20]

Come you masters of war You that build the big guns You that build the death planes You that build all the bombs You that hide behind walls You that hide behind desks I just want you to know I can see through your masks

You that never done nothin’ But build to destroy You play with my world Like it’s your little toy You put a gun in my hand And you hide from my eyes And you turn and run farther When the fast bullets fly

Like Judas of old You lie and deceive A world war can be won You want me to believe But I see through your eyes And I see through your brain Like I see through the water That runs down my drain

You fasten all the triggers For the others to fire Then you sit back and watch When the death count gets higher You hide in your mansion While the young people’s blood Flows out of their bodies And is buried in the mud

You’ve thrown the worst fear That can ever be hurled Fear to bring children Into the world For threatening my baby Unborn and unnamed You ain’t worth the blood That runs in your veins

How much do I know To talk out of turn You might say that I’m young You might say I’m unlearned But there’s one thing I know Though I’m younger than you That even Jesus would never Forgive what you do

Let me ask you one question Is your money that good? Will it buy you forgiveness Do you think that it could? I think you will find When your death takes its toll All the money you made Will never buy back your soul

And I hope that you die And your death’ll come soon I will follow your casket By the pale afternoon And I’ll watch while you’re lowered Down to your deathbed And I’ll stand o'er your grave ‘Til I’m sure that you’re dead

I found myself during Mass on Easter Sunday singing this song. I must be headed to well, not to the place with the pearly gates and harp!

It's a shame no one makes movies about things like robbing the secret vault of the Vatican. This would be great dropped in somewhere.

Another big news story of year concerned the ecumenical council in Rome

Known as Vatican II

Among the things they did

In an attempt to make the church more commercial

Was to introduce the vernacular into portions of the mass, to replace Latin

And to widen somewhat the range of music permissible in the liturgy

But I feel that if they really wanna sell the product in-

In this secular age

What they ought to do is to redo some of the liturgical music in popular song forms

I have a modest example here

It's called the Vatican Rag

First you get down on your knees

Fiddle with your rosaries

Bow your head with great respect

And genuflect, genuflect, genuflect

Do whatever steps you want if

You have cleared them with the pontiff

Everybody say his own Kyrie, eleison

Doin' the Vatican Rag

Get in line in that processional

Step into that small confessional

There the guy who's got religion'll

Tell you if your sin's original

If it is, try playin' it safer

Drink the wine and chew the wafer

Two, four, six, eight

Time to transubstantiate

So get down upon your knees

Fiddle with your rosaries

Bow your head with great respect

And genuflect, genuflect, genuflect

Make a cross on your abdomen

When in Rome do like a Roman

Ave Maria, gee it's good to see ya

Gettin' ecstatic and sorta dramatic and

Doin' the Vatican Rag3

This is a still from a commercial for St. Croix. Someone shoot that horse "owner" please. Then feed that poor horse.

I was watching old musicals cause I have a stomach bug. I was having trouble with streaming Fiddler and Singing In the Rain is on a pay channel.(Yes, I own copies of both. They are on the third floor. I'm not walking up there while I'm sick.)

So I was watching Guys &Dolls and the Spanish lyrics were bugging me. I knew I didn't hear ojos(eyes) anywhere. Since it repeats twice in the English lyrics, I started to wonder. I did mirar(to look) so I knew it wasn't too far off. Sound engineering was not what then what it is today.

Luckily someone more persistent made an effort to track them down. They are a lot different in meaning from the English.

Alli en tu mirar cierta luz de amor Y brillare para mi en total. English: There in your gaze (is) a certain light of love, A light that you want to put out. I know, yes I know it is the light of love, When it illuminates your path with love. Why, why ignore this light without equal? Why do you hide this love? There in your gaze (is) a certain light of love, And it will shine for me alone.

So our local blood testing place has a board to inform you whose up next. Ironically, the screen next to it says travel destinations. So if you read it like that it looks sort of like Wal mart and Paris, France. I'll leave that last destination alone.

[rainbowjay20]

So this song popped into my head and I couldn't remember the last few verses. Of course, there have been different versions but I was just drawing a blank.

I forgot to post my hair when I got it done. Mainly because I fell into a dresser the next day. Ouch! I have been having a really long year. Is it December yet? LOL

Color is Metallic Amethyst Chrome with Metallic Dark Ruby Highlights. The hairdresser was skeptical of the highlight color working. When it was done, she was pleasantly surprised.

You can't see my shirt but it says, "Namast'ay home with my dog!"
