basildestinyI slept all day today. I woke up and called in late and then just called in sick when I woke up at 8 pm.
I had dreams that I had to vanquinsh some kind of evil thing. I was a Night Elf-sorceror thing. All of us Night Elves druid rogues are cursed. This gives us the ability to fly, but we cannot be healed through normal means. We had to be healed through either the healing springs and powers of our home land or else through negative energies like an undead creature would be healed. The evil we faced resembled Sauron or Lord Thingy when they were first gaining back their power. I was in a party with a Sorceroress, a dwarf, a Paladin and myself. The Paladin was a prince I believe. We'd traveled quite a ways from home, but I don't remember where we were journeying. We'd reached a lone cabin in a snowy forest with a snowstorm impending so we shacked up in this cabin. It was pretty much a one bedroom kind of deal. And we all decided that we needed to sleep in the same bed to keep our body heat. Well, the paladin had become infected or affected, but he started to lash out at the others trying to sleep and keep warm. So I distracted him until he attacked me. We fought and I knocked him out. But he had clawed me and choked me and kicked me around really good. Apparently the evil one (whomever he was) had taken hold of the Paladin and while still weak, he still had enough power to control the Paladin. The Paladin chose to vanquish the evil one for a while longer by destroying himself the body which for the moment contained the evil. He died and with his death the evil took a step back and had to seek another to inhabit. This struck me was very noble and as I taken back to my homelands to be healed, I thought of the sacrifice the Paladin had made. He was a prince and giving his life for his people had meant nothing to him. If asked, could I do the same for my people? Would I ever be able to do anything quite as noble as he had done? Soon I was standing before my mistress. With a flourish of her hand, I was healed and bowing down before her. My nose nearly touching the ground. She bade me to arise, but I still could not bring myself beyond knealing before her. I wasn't worthy. Not after what I had witnessed. There was a meeting and much was discussed...
Interesting article I found from a friend
I've fantasized about leaving this country since I was 12 years old, but never more desperately than last Tuesday, when the president announced that my gay family should be banned by the U.S. Constitution. Suddenly, expatriation stopped being about wool berets and red wine at lunch. My loved ones and I were standing at the wrong end of a government's gun—not literally, of course, but in a way that threatens our deepest understanding of our lives. Our hopes for a happy, loving, ordinary marriage had become a national threat. George Bush had called for an amendment against same-sex marriage.
"Can we just go to Canada now?" I asked my wife, knowing the answer. We argue remarkably little for people who have a toddler and spend every possible moment together. Except we do have this one running debate at the breakfast table, which starts with me saying we could get legally married, right now, north of the border. Sarah holds up the weather page and says, "Hey, that cold air out there? It came from Canada, and it got warmer on the way."
It's warm in Vancouver, I say.
And we could be freer there. But she's not going, for reasons beyond the mercury. She wants to live as an American—more specifically, as a New Yorker—regardless of whether this America wants her. She wants our son to grow up an American, even if it means he'll lack the protections of the kid next door. Being American matters to her, and that means it matters to me. Four years ago this fall, we stood before an Episcopal priest and were pronounced married for life, for better, for worse. "Those whom God has joined together," the priest warned, "let no one put asunder." I won't leave her, Mr. Bush, not even on account of you.Continued...
I really like this song. It's got a really catchy sound. JC's Build My World
"Build My World"
Clear my eyes it's the morning after
Did I fall in love, or did I find disaster?
Take a second just to breathe
I pick my heart up off my sleeve, yea
There she goes and I know she knows
By the way she eased out on her tippy toes
Skip the breakfast, tea for two
We made no plans to rendeavous, yea
Someone for everyone but no one for me
(No one for me)
Constantly searching for the love I need to
Build my world around, around
I'll be the lonely one until I find someone
The one I build my world around, around
So bring the arms of love until I find the one
The one I build my world...
Lazy days, I'm in a hazy phase
Of watching countless ways in which my life goes crazy
Foolishness to blame
Still it pains me all the same, yea
Empty faces with empty gazes
In a race of change I'm losing faith in my pace
Trying to keep my feet before I fall
I'm on this endless road with nothing to see
(Nothing to see)
Constantly searching for the love I need to
Build my world around, around
I'll be the lonely one until I find the one
The one I build my world around, around
So bring the arms of love until I find the one
The one I build my world
A cornerstone of honesty
(All around)
A foundation of gravity and freedom
(All around)
A clear and concrete understanding
(All around)
A love that's best kept safe and sound
It's amazing how we fear we may be
It's from ourselves we so often run
Abandon fear and consequence of heartbreak
Expose the truth and give yourself to love
We've all been set up to be disappointed
We have to crawl before we learn to fly
It's a blur that moves right into focus
Removes the doubt, aligns your heart and mine
Build my world around, around
(It's amazing, ah yea)
I'll be the lonely one until I find the one
The one I build my world around, around
(Around, around, yea)
So bring the arms of love until I find the one
The one I build my world around, around
(Around, yea, oooh...)
I'll be the lonely one until I find the one
The one I build my world around
(Just say it, just say it, just say it, just say it, yea-yea, oh baby)
So bring the arms of love until I find the one
The one I build my world...
I also enjoy this song. Avril Lavigne's Don't Tell Me
"Don't Tell Me"
You held my hand and walked me home I know
While you gave me that kiss it was something like this it made me go ooh ohh
You wiped my tears, got rid of all my fears, why did you have to go?
Guess it wasn't enough to take up some of my love cause you're so hard to trust
Did I not tell you that I'm not like that girl?
The one who gives it all away
[Chorus:]
Did you think that I was gonna give it up to you, this time?
Did you think that I was somethin I was gonna do and cry?
Don't try to tell me what to do,
Dont try to tell me what to say,
Your better off that way
Don't think that your charmin the fact that your arm is now around my neck
I got you in my pants I'll have to kick your ass and make you never forget
I'm gonna ask you to stop, thought I liked you a lot, but I'm really upset
Get out of my head get off of my bed yeah thats what I said
Did I not tell you that I'm not like that, the one who, throws it all away
[Chorus]
Did you think that I was gonna give it up to you, this time?
Did you think that I was somethin I was gonna do and cry?
Don't try to tell me what to do,
Dont try to tell me what to say,
Your better off that way
This guilt trip that you put me on won't, mess me up I've done no wrong
Any thoughts of you and me have gone away
[Chorus]
Did you think that I was gonna give it up to you, this time?
Did you think that I was somethin I was gonna do and cry?
Don't try to tell me what to do,
Dont try to tell me what to say,
Your better off that way
Better off that way
I'm better off alone anyway
My other favorite from Schitzophrenic JC's She Got Me
"She Got Me"
Came in on a rocket ship
The middle of the night
Coloring the stratospheres
A beauty by her side
She was so hypnotic
Staring inner beams of light
It was so mysterious
But something that I liked
What you do to me I can't explain
You're so good, yeah
It's a gamble that I have to take
What am I supposed to do
Girl I can't deny
She was traveling through space and time
I've been trapped on this world of mine
Came down from nowhere, you're blowing my mind
She was such a find
It's like she was designed
Engineered, there's nothing left to perfect her
Waiting on a sign, I was tied in a bind
It would be nice, if I could release all the pressure
Striving to survive but I'm staying alive
Coping with the reigns of her pleasure
Decide to cross the line
Play the cards where they lie
Cause I know there's nothing left but to get her
What you do to me I can't explain
You're so good, yeah
It's a gamble that I have to take
What am I supposed to do
Girl I can't deny
She was traveling through space and time
I've been trapped on this world of mine
Came down from nowhere, you're blowing my mind
Cause I've been waiting patient for
A love that's mile high
Floating over galaxies
We'll fly
She was traveling through space and time
I've been trapped on this world of mine
Came down from nowhere, you're blowing my mind, yeah
Oh
She got me
Oh
She got me
She got me, she got me, she got me
She got me
She got me, she got me, she got me
Oh she got me
She got me, she got me, she got me
She got me
She got me, she got me, she got me
Oh she got me
She walked into my life
(She walked)
She walked right into my life
(She got me)
She walked right into my life
(She walked)
She walked into my life
(She walked)
She walked into my life
(She got me)
She walked into my life
(She walked)
She walked into my life...
