SXSW

I am in the midst of the SXSW epidemic going on in Austin.

And what am I doing?

Nothing!!

Nadda!!

Home alone!!!

In the comfort of a cushy chair on the veranda with smokes, wine, and a wide screen playing music through my Bose surround sound.

Why on earth would I battle lines for a warm beer or sticky drink along side stinky, sloppy people?

6th St is a massacre of crazy and I rather not partake!

SXSW is set up mostly to piss you off. You may have a badge but the venues are small and you have to fight to get in...why bother with the $600 price tag for all that?

If your young and its Spring Break and Mexico is off limits due to the drug cartel..SXSW is for you..

but if your a true aficionado...stay home and crank the surround sound...and wait for the crowd to go back from whence they came

The Blonde is NW for the duration!

No Need to Speak

The Blonde has music!

Never Let Me Go

The Blonde bows her head to the incredible and undeniable Florence and the Machine!!!

Just One More from Johnny Lang

"Dying To Live"
Mmm...
You know I've heard it said there's beauty in distortion
By some people who withdraw to find their head
And they say that there is humor in misfortune
No, I wonder if they'll laugh when I am dead...

Why am I fighting to live
If I'm just living to fight?
Why am I trying to see...
When there ain't nothing in sight?
Why am I trying to give
When no one gives me a try?
Why am I dying to live
If I'm just living to die...

Yeah...
You know some people say that values are subjective
But they're just speaking words...
That someone else has said...
And so they live and fight and kill with no objective
Sometimes it's hard to tell the living from the dead

Why am I fighting to live
If I'm just living to fight?
Why am I trying to see...
When there ain't nothing in sight?
Why am I trying to give
When no one gives me a try?
Why am I dying to live
If I'm just living to die...

Mmmm...You know I used to weave
my words into confusion
And so I hope you'll understand me
when I'm through
You know I used to live my life as an illusion
But reality will make my dream come true

So I'll keep fighting to live
Till there's no reason to fight
And I'll keep trying to see
Until the end is in sight
You know I'm trying to give
So come on
Give me a try
You know I'm dying to live
Until I'm ready to die
I'm ready to die

The Blonde is humbled by the music!

Resotration

Heart is heavy
Soul is thirsty
Body's achin'
I am desperately in need of restoration
I am ready for you to take me higher
The only thing that I can do is keep on praying
On my own I just can't get it right
It doesn't matter how hard I try
But with you I've become a much stronger man
Getting on my knees puts me back on my feet again
Load is heavy
Too much accumulation
These possessions that I have amount to nothing at all
I am willing to hand over every one of them
'Cause they won't profit me anything in the end
/Repeat chorus/
Never again: will I wander without you alone in the wilderness
Never again: Will I offer to you anything less than my very best!
Never again: Never again Now that I understand

The Blonde is not the Only one feeling down sometimes!!

Be Thankful!!

The Blonde thanks God everyday...even if she thinks there is nothing to be thankful for...

because in the end...no one died...and for that I am blessed!!!

Smile Hard

and don't share your pain or tears.

That is the hard lesson of being single.

Every new date is someone who does not wish to hear anything other than how your presence will make them happier.

And so if you are angry at the world..

Or angry at yourself for failing at something...

Keep it to you yourself.

Cry in your pillow and in the morning wake up pretending all is alright...

Because being single does not lend itself to a shoulder to cry on....

Unless you count your cat and they don't like a heavy head on their shoulder.

So suck it up Blondie

No one really cares what you are going through!

Political Opinion

We all have one. The cable news has more to fill a an entire sanitation truck and still over flow.

I won't get political. I have a son in Afghanistan and so anyone who does not have a family member in the war...needs to shut the FUCK up...

Santourm
Romney
Ginrich
Obama
Paul,
etc..etc..etc...

Just shut the fuck up!!!

Also, if you never took a birth control pill...
than shut the FUCK UP!

Santorum
Romney
Ginrich
Obama
Paul

etc, etc, etc....

SHUT THE FUCK Up says the BLONDE!!!

If you are worthy of being president than speak up...

Anyone?

Anyone?

Bueller?

The Blonde hears crickets!
