I'll sing it one last time for you
Then we really have to go
You've been the only thing that's right
In all I've done
And I can barely look at you
But every single time I do
I know we'll make it anywhere
Away from here
Light up, light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you dear
Louder louder
And we'll run for our lives
I can hardly speak I understand
Why you can't raise your voice to say
To think I might not see those eyes
Makes it so hard not to cry
And as we say our long goodbye
I nearly do
Light up...
Slower slower
We don't have time for that
All I want is to find an easier way
To get out of our little heads
Have heart my dear
We're bound to be afraid
Even if it's just for a few days
Making up for all this mess

ROAD TRIP PLANS!!!!
What I really want to do if I actually get this damn job in Palo ALto!
My cousin Andrea lives in Parker, Colorado, just outside of Denver. I would drive from St. Louis to there. About 12 or so hours. I would stay for 2 days. (851 miles)
Next stop: Alamogordo, New Mexico. I would visit my friend Jamie, who has been he love of my live. Very unrequited, but not in the typical sense. He just doesn't know how to let his guard down and let someone love him. Very complex man. I love him still, and there will always be a place in my heart for that man. No matter what, he will always be my friend, and I will always have a part of me that will get week in the knees any time I would get to see him. I would probably stay at least 2 days.(539 miles)
Stop #3: Flagstaff, Arizona if my friend Andrea gets a job there. I haven't seen her since July, and I miss the hell outta her :( (532 miles)
Last STOP.....................PALO ALTO!!!!!!!!!! 742 miles, probably 12 hours of a drive. If I end up there too early, well....I can just make a nice little friendly pit stop in San Francisco to reunite with the man of my dreams. Mr. Sean-Michael Robert Hurley. A man for whom I have known since I was 18 years old, liberated for the first time in my life, and away from home in Texas for Fire School.
He was everything I had ever deramed of in a man, and it was all before I had even met him. I have been with many men since him. I have had several fasiled attempts at relationships and many heartbreaks too. In the back of my mind, after all of these years, I never was able to shake him out of my mind. I finally looked him up last year on MySpace, and we have been talking online ever since. I am really having overly high hopes about this *hopefully positive* trip to Cali.
I am hoping I get there, he falls madly in love with me, and that's the end of all my suffering days in the life of a single woman. I fantasize about it daily, sadly enough. But I have a great rooted feeling that all these years of waiting for my Mr. Right are going to be over soon.
I have spoken witht the Lord several times regarding my dreams of being with this man, and I know that He will make the right decision for me. I am just hoping we are both on the same page here.

okay so here's the lowdown on what's pissing me off right now
So, for a few months now, I have been 'talking' to a new friend of mine whom I met through my friend Steve. It is his cousin, Kit. I met him in person at a bar called Croc's in Oakville 2 years ago. I didn't think much of him because I was awestruck by Steve and his ridiculous good looks.
Well, time passed, I moved to Memphis area, and reconnected with Steve via MySpace. At first, I was retardedly enamoured by him, his personality, his good looks, and the fact that I idolized him in high school. He was very popular, and everyone liked him. We worked together at Steak N' Shake, and he was nice to me, so I felt like I fit in more when I was in HS, and I am eternally grateful for that.
But back to the story at hand. I made 'friends' with Kit on MySpace as well. We had chatted and emailed and responded to each others posted bulletins. Whatever. Well, over the last few months, more so the month and a half before I left for the lower 48, we had been emailing e/o maybe 3-5 a day, leaving comments for e/o and commenting on e/o pics on our profile. I was starting to crush on him. From what I saw in pics, he was really cute, and I really enjoyed his personality and sense of humor. It also seemed like we had alot of the same social and political views.
Well, from viewing his profile, there were no pics of any females. No mention of a lady in his life, but it said 'in a relationship'. I actually thought it was an oversight on his part. I had called Steve to make sure he was still gonna be my date to my 10 year reunion, and he mentioned that KIT WAS ENGAGED!!!! Needless to say I was quite shocked at this news. My response was "I didn't even know he had a girlfriend!" So anyhow, I am kinda let down, but not too bad, since what was I gonna do? He had a gf, but was quite adamant about hanging out when I was to come into town.
Well, I forgot, but a week later I told him congrats on the engagement. He surprised me by telling me she flipped out and cancelled on the whole thing. He then went into rebound mode. He was being quite forward (trying to make it all look like a joke), but asking me if I wanted a "stunt cock" (not really smooth) and 'jokes' referencing to rebounding on both our behalves. Oh well, I kinda liked it. I was still crushing on him a little, and I was thinking that maybe this might turn out to be something good out of all of this.
We talked a few times while I was in town (STL) and met up the Thursday I was there. I ended up meeting him at a friend's house. It was a lot of fun , and we talked quite a bit. We had to crash there cause neither one of us was in a condition to drive anywhere. We ended up sleeping on the floor in this guys room in the basement, with him sleeping in his bed maybe 6 or so feet away.
Well, one thing led to another, and we were hot and heavy for a while. But the 2 of us were so retarded drunk that the coordination was off. Next thing I know, I am waking up, and getting ready to leave.
Kit walks me to my car, gives me a hug, and drives ahead of me to lead me out of the subdivision we were in.
We made plans via email for him to meet me up at the Way Out Club and see my friends' band play. After being there the whole night and no Kit, I had begun to think I had been stood up.
I get a phone call at 3 AM from Kit: he had gotten arrested for setting off illegal firecrackers in someones mailbox. Mature, yeah I know. Anyhow, he called to apologize for being stupid and missing out on the evening. We talked for a good hour and he had me rolling laughing with his sense of humor. We departed on the phone on fantastic terms, and had made plans for him to meet up with Steve and I after the reunion.
WELL... The next night again, he is a no show. I get an email later from him saying that he had a friend pass away, and that he was truly sorry he had missed out on meeting up with us.
We exchange emails over the next few days, and every time I see a message from him on MySpace, I smile and giggle a little. I posted the pic of us the night we hung out, and he even commented on it twice. A few days later, he posted the same pic! Not once had I ever seen a pic of a girl on his profile. The headline was "The Swartz is with me". I was quite flattered, and this of all things made me very hopeful. Well, the 1st of July rolls around, and I am playing on the computer and I went to sent him a comment, and his profile is set to private and I had been deleted from his friends list. And not to mention, right before this, I was in his top friends.
So, I think, well this is just a silly little mistake. SO I put in a new friends request and mailed him a message. No response. I waited a few more days, and put in a new request, no reply. He read the new email I sent him though, and no response.
WTF?!?!?!?!
No explanation? Nothing? He even deleted himself from subscribing to my blog! This hurts really bad. For the first time in 3 years I really like someone based on their personality more than looks, and it seems like everything is going to be ok, and I get fucked over like this.
I mentioned it to Steve, and all he could say is that it was rude. I know he won't meddle in it because he's not the type. Kit's family, I'm just a friend. I would love to talk to Steve about it, but who knows, maybe he had something to say to Kit that had him make the decision to delete me. Who knows.
I am still trying to cope with all this since it is quite a blow to my self esteem. Great. I feel like I am gonna be single forever. Hopefully I can find some type of resolve in all of this, who knows.
I am planning on calling him sometime this week and see if I can talk to him about it. I have a feeling he wouldn't answer the phone, so I would have to leave a message. But then I am trying to think of what I would even say to his voicemail if that were the case. I am currently awaiting tips from friends on what I should do/say. I'm sure there will be a whole new blog when that comes around. But until then, I am going to be adult, calm and reasonable for this situation, even though it really makes me upset to think about any of it. Just sucks that I really liked this person, and I know for sure he liked me too.
My only thought as to what was going on is that his ex-fiance is back in the picture, found out about us, and was forced to boot me from his life. Hopefully, I will be able to find out this week when I get the nerve to call him.

A disappointment. Oh, you shouldn't have done, You couldn't have done, You wouldn't have done the things you did then. And we could've been happy. What a piteous thing, A hideous thing was tainted by the rest, But it won't get any harder, And I hope you'll find your way again. And it won't get any higher, And it all boils down to what you did, Then... [X 8]In the night we fight, I fled, you're right. It was exactly then, it was exactly then, I decided, decided, decided, decide. Oh, that threw you out. In the night we fight, I fled, you're right. It was exactly then, it was exactly then, I decided, decided, decided, decided. Mmm... Mmmm... But it won't be any harder, And I hope you'll find your way again. And it won't get any higher, And it all boils down to what you did...
