My Beautiful Girl


























This Emo Girl is beautiful


She's got the rings and glasses


And all she wears


Says miles about her


But through it all


I still care about that Emo Girl

Anger Management

I’m not angry anymore
I’m not angry
I just want to forget you
Erase you, replace you with
Forgiveness, forgiveness

Angry by Pat Benetar

Now if only I could've blogged BEFORE the bag of chips...at least it was only a 1/4 bag of chips grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

The Harvest (a.k.a. Salsa Garden 2.0)

I don't mind the sun sometimes
The images it shows
I can taste you on my lips
And smell you in my clothes
Cinnamon and sugary
And softly spoken lies
You never know just how to look
Through other people's eyes
Pepper by the Butthole Surfers

We're ready for the tomatoes, habaneros, cubanelles and sweet peppers...but we're very proud of the magna cum laude peppers in our garden! The Cayenne, The Banana and the Jalapeno!

Happy Birthday

Fly me out the window.
Somewhere far away
News on the radio,
Happy Birthday,
Happy Birthday,
Happy Birthday.



Happy Birthday by Concrete Blonde
I don't know what started the tradition...but I LOVE to listen to Happy Birthday by Concrete Blonde on my birthday.
It's one of those peppy songs with a hook...but it's really kinda dark and I never realized that before... well...maybe when I was drinking and smoking it didn't seem so dark...but metaphorically I guess it's saying regardless of what's going on it's my Birthday so HAPPY BIRTHDAY, HAPPY BIRTHDAY, HAPPY BIRTHDAY :)
And when I grow up I STILL wanna be Johnette Napolitano!

Bubble and Squeak


Bubble and squeak and jumble sales, little richard and jerry lee
Bonfire night and south and that's paddlin' in the sea
Polished brass and copper, salvation army bands
Violins and old coach inns and colored elastic bands
Tea in the mornin' and winter beginnin' and fishin' lines
And frogs and spurs are winning
Yes that's what i like
Hey, that's what i like

"that's what i like mick" ~ Tori Amos
It's okay if it's not funny to you...
some where out there Judy, Lori, Leann and Jennifer are laughing...LOUDLY
so Loudly in fact that people are moving away

If I Can Make it There...

They say the Neon Lights are Bright on Broadway

Someday I'll make it there!
so I tried to cram...
but I learned that everything I needed was already inside of me
...And I won't quit till I'm a star on Broadway

Spam Spam Spam Spam

And so, King Arthur gathered his Knights together,

bringing from all the corners of the Kingdom the strongest and bravest in
the land to sit at the Round Table.

The strangely flatulent Sir Bedevere,

the dashingly handsome Sir Galahad, the homicidally brave Sir Lancelot,

Sir Robin the Not-quite-so-brave-as-Sir-Lancelot,

who slew the vicious Chicken of Bristol and who
personally wet himself at the Battle of Badon Hill.

And the aptly named Sir Lunchbox-Making-A-Special-Appearance-in-the-Show.

for my hub :)

Riding on the Metro


I remember searching for the perfect words

I was hoping you might change your mind

I remember a soldier sleeping next to me

riding on the Metro

(The Metro - by Berlin)

Lunchbox takes Manhattan!



Big day today


Rode the Subway to Times Square


Saw Hairspray at the Neil Simon Theater


Even made friends with the NYPD!

A Room With A View





Our Living Room...overlooking Manhattan
Look...they even put our names on the doors
and ...
My room, with a fantastic view that I can't show you right now because the flash will just glare against the glass...I'll try in the morning when it's light out
wait...
it is morning...
ugh
the combination of "deaf can't say goodbye's" and "the city that never sleeps" is NOT going to be a good one!
Good night everyone :)
