cookies! (and morrissey!)
10:51 p.m.
love those one-word entry titles. they look so...dynamic or something.
today was interesting. we had christmas open house in our little shopping district. from six to nine tonight we had cookies, coffee, and sparkling cider for all the folks looking at all the shops' decorations. juanita made some cookies that were soooo good, really buttery frosting on top, the whole cookie tasted like butter. and i had several of those little russian tea cakes, the little round white powdery things...i'm all cookied out!
you know, evilwench, if you pick up the subtle hints sprinkled throough out my diary, i think you could find me pretty easy... when you see the 10-foot high inflatable snowman, just look to the left, i should be right there! let's just say i'm not north of fourth like you...i'm at the opposite end of town...
gotta go watch my tape of tonight's survivor....just chatted with mel again. much fun! might add a little more later...
______________________________
i've been thinking about this all day...here's some smiths lyrics...i just found out ( during my second IM chat of the evening...i'm starting to dig this shit!) that a pal of mine is unfamiliar with morrissey and the boys...oh boy, i'm gonna turn him into a smiths freak, i'm sure of it! it's just what he needs right now...goose, don't worry..this isn't about you, or for you even, it's just how i've been feeling today... all day it's been running through my head. mozzer, take it away -
REEL AROUND THE FOUNTAIN
It's time the tale were told
It's time the tale were told
Reel around the fountain
Fifteen minutes with you
Fifteen minutes with you
It's time the tale were told
It's time the tale were told
Reel around the fountain
Fifteen minutes with you
Fifteen minutes with you
I dreamt about you last night
But take me to the haven of your bed
Meet me at the fountain
Fifteen minutes with you
of how you took a child
and you made him old
of how you took a child
and you made him old
you made him old
slap me on the patio
I'll take it now
well, I wouldn't say no
oh people said
that you were virtually dead
and they were so wrong!
I wouldn't say no
oh people said
that you were easily led
and they were half-right
of how you took a child
and you made him old
of how you took a child
and you made him old
you made him old
slap me on the patio
I'll take it now
I wouldn't say no
oh people see no worth in you
oh but I do
oh I wouldn't say no
oh people see no worth in you
but I do
and I fell out of bed twice
you can pin and mount me
like a butterfly
was something that you never said
two lumps, please
you're the bee's knees
but so am I
shove me on the patio
I'll take it slowly
oh I wouldn't say no
people see no worth in you
oh but I do

HOW SOON IS NOW?
I am the son
You shut your mouth
I am the son
You shut your mouth
There's a club if you'd like to go
When you say it's gonna happen "now"
You shut your mouth
and the heir
of a shyness that is criminally vulgar
I am the son and heir
of nothing in particular
how can you say
I go about things the wrong way
I am human and I need to be loved
just like everybody else does
and the heir
of a shyness that is criminally vulgar
I am the son and the heir
of nothing in particular
how can you say
I go about things the wrong way
I am human and I need to be loved
just like everybody else does
you could meet somebody who really loves you
so you go, and you stand on your own
and you leave on your own
and you go home, and you cry
and you want to die
well, when exactly do you mean?
see I've already waited too long
and all my hope is gone
how can you say
I go about things the wrong way
I am human and I need to be loved
just like everybody else does
HANDSOME DEVIL
All the streets are crammed with things
Let me get my hands
I crack the whip
A boy in the bush
Let me get my hands
I crack the whip
And when we're in your scholarly room
Let me get my hands
There's more to life
eager to be held
I know what hands are for
and I'd like to help myself
you ask me the time
but I sense something more
and I would like to give you
what I think you're asking for
you handsome devil
you handsome devil
on your mammary glands
and let me get your head
on the conjugal bed
I say, I say, I say
and you skip
but you deserve it
you deserve it, deserve it, deserve it
is worth two in the hand
I think I can help you get through
your exams
oh you handsome devil
on your mammary glands
and let me get your head
on the conjugal bed
I say, I say, I say
and you skip
but you deserve it
you deserve it, deserve it, deserve it
who will swallow whom?
and when we're in your scholarly room
who will swallow whom?
you handsome devil
on your mammary glands
and let me get your head
on the conjugal bed
I say, I say, I say
than books you know
but not much more
oh you handsome devil
ok, my work here is finished! i hope i've planted a few seeds here that'll grow into something wonderful for the lad. stay tuned...
