Skin - by Alexz Johnson(from instant star)
I drift away to a place
Another kind of life
Take away the pain
I create my paradise
Everything I've held
Has hit the wall
What used to be yours
Isn't yours at all
Falling apart, and all that I'm asking
Is it a crime, am I overreacting
Oh, he's under my skin
Just give me something to get rid of him
I've got a reason now to bury this alive
Another little white lie
So what you had didn't fit
Among the pretty things
Never fear, never fear
I now know where you've been
Braids have been un-tied
As ribbons fall away
Leave the consequence
But my tears you'll taste
Falling apart and all that I question
Is this a dream or is this my lesson
Oh, he's under my skin
Just give me something to get rid of him
I've got a reason now to bury this alive
Another little white lie
I don't believe I'll be alright
I don't believe I'll be OK
I don't believe how you've thrown me away
I do believe you didn't try
I do blame you for every lie
When I look in your eyes, I don't see mine
Oh, he's under my skin
Just give me something to get rid of him
I've got a reason now to bury this alive
Another little white lie
Oh my permission to sin
You might have started my reckoning
I've got a reason now to bury him alive
Another little white lie
I love this song, it has so much emotion. I want to learn how to play it on the guitar...but it is really hard..well hard for me. but practice makes perfect.

Why me???
Okay, so me and my friend Angela go for slushies everyday at 3pm. Now i know what some of you are thinking...every day, why that is quite frequent....well who cares. Anyways..back to the story.
7-11 is just a short walk up from our work, maybe like a 5 minute walk. During those 5 minutes adventures happen. Why just yesterday, a lovely homeless person was lying on some cardboard on the sidewalk. He was screaming, a propane explosion knocked down the walls in my house. Well that is just terrible, but what he was doing putting propane in a cardboard home, i don't know. We all know from experience that cardboard and propane just don't mix. But i am getting off topic. So we do our usual thing and get slushies. Now on the way back, the homeless man, lets call him Joe, walks up to me and says something like 'man i want a slushie, i am just so hot' as he rubs his hands seductively up and down his body. I of course naively respond 'oh, i didn't know you wanted one, if i had, i would have gotten you one' and then of course, Joe being Joe, keeps talking about how hot he is.
Now i don't know what is stranger, me being propositioned by a homeless man, or the fact that its not the first time a bum has hit on me, or the fact that i felt bad for not getting him a slushie.
Now if you want to hear another good 3pm Angela and Erin break adventure, you should go to her blog for that story....the link is on this page under 'links i love'. just click on bubbles.
Enjoy

Proactiv NO MORE!!!!!
So people of the blogger-sphere...i am OUTRAGED. I guess i should start at the beginning.
I am always looking for a new face wash, because my face is super sensitive and prone to break outs. On my quest for finding the perfect face wash (i believe it doesn't exists) i decided to try proactiv solution. It is a fine system..it did what it was required to do...but i have only been using it for like two months. So the jury was still out...i mean it was fine but it was expensive and it wasn't like it made some major difference and my skin was now picture perfect.
Anyways....today i come home from an awesome day (saw batman, dark knight on the IMAX...got to see my favourite thing in the whole wide world....the imax preshow....it is an awesome 80's laser show) . So i come home and on the table there is a package for me...proactiv has sent me a new kit and let me know that they have charged me another like 62 dollars. Isn't that thoughtful of them. I am actually really put off by this...it makes me madder than almost anything...i am normally not outraged but i am like incensed at this. First of all...how did they even know i wanted another kit...how did they even know i have finished the last kit (i haven't by the way....all the products are like half full still) And i never gave them permission to charge my credit card again..then on the bill it says "you can expect your next kit to be shipped the week of 09/22/08 and it will be charged to your card." first of all...i am gonna be swimming in face wash if they send me another kit that soon...and second of all...i never agreed to this.
I am so outraged...i e-mailed them a strongly worded letter, i never do that..i am not a complainer. I am even demanding a full refund INCLUDING postage to send the package back. I am so outraged that even though i am not finished with the kit i already have...i have thrown it out. I want nothing more to do with them.
Anyways...that is my vent...and i will keep you posted on their reply.
If i don't get a full refund (postage included) i am gonna send Stephanie after them....and they don't want that....oh no...they don't want that!
PROACTIV BEWARE.....WAR HAS JUST BEEN DECLARED!!!

Guitar
I have decided to learn how to play the guitar. My friend Mark is teaching me...much to everyone's annoyance! but i think i have a natural talent. It is like the funnest thing ever, except my fingers don't really agree with me. Pinkie is the worst..randomly strumming, not holding down the string enough...but i shall train him to behave.
Now most of you are probably wondering...who would give that girl a guitar? Well here's what you need to know...Andrea lent me her guitar, and Mark is my sen say (like that mark?...sen say is so much cooler than teacher)
So if you have a complaint about my playing please address those two people.
Here is a sample of what i know so far:
The A cord
The B cord
The C cord (i learned it but i sort of forget it already)
The D cord
I can also play the opening of a No Doubt song.
I also like to write random songs about what i am doing. This guitar thing is awesome...all i need now is a guitar strap, a pick, a case, and to learn how to actually play!
Oh ya, i use a dime as my pick for now. This requires MUCH more talent as it is much smaller and harder to handle than a pick. See, I'm practically an expert already!
I should start thinking of band names...any suggestions?

From the Desk of Nana
'That slut' - said about mike's fictional wife when she cheated on him in the play Saturday night
'You should be like Britney spears and make sure to not wear underwear' - when i told her i was gonna wear shorts under my really short dress.
'I don't buy green banana's because i don't know if i will be around that long'
We also found a note on her counter that read:
'hair appointment, 2pm Friday.......That is today'
These are just the few i remember.....anyways, most of you are family that read this...so next time you see Nana...give her a hug for me.
