I hate how much I love you

That’s how much I love you
That’s how much I need you
And I can’t stand ya
Must everything you do make me wanna smile
Can I not like it for awhile
No.. but you won’t let me
You upset me, then you kiss my lips
All of a sudden I forget that I was upset
Can’t remember what you did
Well I hate it
You know exactly what to do
So that I can’t stay mad at you
For too long, that’s wrong, I hate it
You know exactly how to touch
So that I don’t wanna fuss and fight no more
So I despise that I adore
And I hate how much I love you boy
I can’t stand how much I need you
And I hate how much I love you boy
But I just can’t let you go
And I hate that I love you so..
And you completely know the power that you have
The only one that makes me laugh
Sad and it’s not fair how you take advantage of the fact that I Love you beyond the reason why
And it just ain’t right
And I hate how much I love you
I can’t stand how much I need you
And I hate how much I love you
But I just can’t let you go
And I hate that I love you so
One of these days maybe your magic won’t affect me
And your kiss won’t make me weak
But no one in this world knows me the way you know me
So you’ll probably always have a spell on me
That’s how much I love you
How much I need you
That’s how much I need you
That’s how much I love you
That’s how much I need you
And I hate that I love you so--
And I hate how much I love you boy
I can’t stand how much I need you
And I hate how much I love you boy
But I just can’t let you go
And I hate that I love you so
And I hate that I love you so.. so..

some very important information

There is more money being spent on breast implants and Viagra than on Alzheimer's research. This means that by 2030, there should be a large elderly population with perky boobs and huge erections and absolutely no recollection of what to do with them.

If Children Had Wings

If Children Had Wings, ©1978 by Gordon Lightfoot

There's a love I hold dear
And it shines through each year
And it makes things seem different somehow
It's for better or worse
It's for people who thirst
For a love that burns brighter right now
And it shines on and on 'til all sadness is gone
And if children had wings I would sing them their song
With a smile on my face and a tear in my eye
Everything will be fine by and by
There were things that were said
There were things that were done
And a wife cannot stand too much pain
And what I thought was best
Couldn't please her much less
But my love still goes on, that don't change
And it shines on and on 'til all sadness is gone
And if children had wings I would sing them their song
With a smile on my lips and a tear in my eye
Everything will be fine by and by
And it shines on and on 'til all sadness is gone
And if children had wings I would sing them their song
With a smile on my face and a tear in my eye
Everything will be fine by and by

It's D-Day!

I'll be having a baby tonight. What will you be doing?
Kristen is calling tomorrow "big sister day" because she FINALLY gets to be a big sister. This poor kid has been waiting forever to be a real big sister. I only hope she knows what she is wishing for.
Yesterday, my friend brought over her 3 week old son and took a nap at my house. Once my friend got settled, Kristen said "Let's go take care of the baby." I had to explain that he is sleeping. No, we can't wake him up to hold him. No, he doesn't want to play with the pink baby doll. Sure, you can check on him again. Yes, he's STILL sleeping.
Poor kid.

weighing in on britney

how could i possibly have a blog without giving my opinion about britney spears' performance the other night on the VMA's? first i have to mention that i am a huge britney fan and have been since "baby one more time". i think the girl is amazing even still with all of these flubs in her career. i very rarely allow people to commit acts and get away with passing the blame onto others. however, in her case, i really feel like britney is getting shafted because of her fame. not one of us can imagine what it is like to NEVER be alone and always have people hounding you, trying to touch you, get a piece of you, make money off you, blah blah. i could go on all day. yes, she gets paid royally and that's lovely. but i bet you she would pay alot of money to just get some peace.
her performance the other night...she looked great physically but i have never once seen her nervous and i have seen alot of her interviews and performances. she looked absolutely like a deer in the headlights and i sincerely thought she would walk off the stage at some points. i felt really bad for her. her song was good though :)
i'll take my "normal" life over hers anyday.

a few things...

i got an email from my friend this morning that made me laugh. i won't embarrass claire by mentioning her name. it said:
"First rule of blogging - be sure to update for those of us who have no life outside of reading about other people's lives! I know you have NOTHING else going on, so come on!!! Love,Your loyal audience :-)"
funny. but i have actually been thinking of a few things to write. first of all, what is on my mind most is my appointment with my OB this morning. at my 36 week appointment, i asked her how big she thought the baby is. people keep asking and i keep forgetting to get that information. she tells me 7 pounds. i said NOW? yes. that is just her estimate. i said, isn't it true that the baby puts on a pound a week. yes. i have 4 weeks left. yes. at this point, you can visualize my look of complete shock and picking my mouth up off the floor. so i then reminded her that i had a 9lb. 9oz. baby last time and i DO NOT want to go through that again much less anything worse. she even looked concerned at this point. maybe she thought that i would pass out. she said that at my appointment next week, i should ask the doctor (she is the nurse) about all this and have her estimate the size and ask to be induced. she said there is a chance that she would induce me at 38 weeks. i will walk into that office next week hoping and praying that is what she says. unfortunately, i probably won't stop thinking about it until then. i can be so neurotic.
