new anthem....thanks Bryony. You just made my day!!!
im sick of the show....sick of the stage..... i wish people would just do what they want to do and not call it something else. this is about no one thing specifically....i just feel its all a show and there is not much left that is genuine. its sad. and frustrating.
we got nothing to prove. your social guides give you swollen eyes but what i've got cant be bought.

this is a bit of a rant....
and one that you can all feel free to throw your opinions at all you want....but when it comes to this....you will not change my mind.
MUSIC IS ART. you can not tell someone what is good or bad. you have to hear it, let it make its impact and choose how it will inspire you. MUSIC IS THE SAME. if you dont think it music worth hearing THEN DONT LISTEN. and ultimately, shut up about it.
my music collection is vast. you will find Frank Sinatra alongside ABBA, Justin Bieber, Ke$ha, Lady GaGa, Dusty Springfield, the Allman Brothers, Poison, KISS, AC/DC, DC Talk, David Crowder, Madonna, INXS, David Bowie, Against ME! Motion City Soundtrack, Flogging Molly, and SO MUCH MORE.
Music is a vessel, it allows us to feel a time that has passed, takes us somewhere we want to go or simply stops us in a moment we want to remember. When I want to be reminded of how I grew up, the teachings of my family, and hear something that takes me back to a place where everything was simple....NOTHING better than Allman Brothers, Chicago, the Who or a simple rendition of I'll Fly Away on a piano in a church room to put me right back there. This music reminds me of my parents and the life they built for my sisters and myself and all the struggle to raise us up right.
If i want to feel my childhood, i MUST hear some Cyndi Lauper, Paula Abdul, New Kids on the Block, Janet Jackson, SWV, of NSYNC. i see my sisters. and all that encompasses the memories of growing up with them.
If i want to lose my mind...gimme GaGa, Bieber, Ke$ha, INXS, David Bowie, Queen, any thing that can MOVE MY ASS all over a room, make me sweat and smile and LIVE IN THIS MOMENT!
My point.......... Opinions and Assholes people we all have them.....and sometimes its cool to talk about them with others who have a mind that has been opened enough to know that just because YOU dont like it....it is not irrelevant to EVERYONE.
To claim someone that a record label, The Academy, Radio and others have deemed worthy to invest MILLIONS of dollars in TALENTLESS shows you jealousy, your ignorance, and your stubborness to admit certain things about yourself.
In the church of music; you are the judgemental christians who give the whole thing a bad name.
shame on you.
kiss my butt

37.9 miles North
so here is an update. The Compound days have come to a close. We opted out of our lease early to give the homeowner time to renovate and put the house on the market before the spring. It all happened really, really fast. We spoke with him, made the decision and in two weeks, it was done. After looking at countless houses in the city, for budget we were looking to meet and space requirements, nothing came close to as decent living as we had at the compound. So the next step, look outside the city. And if we are moving outside the city, why live somewhere that doesn't benefit us in any way other than financially? Enter BRIDGEMILL. Thats right. Bridemill.37.9 miles north of our previous address and about a block from the home of Jax, Livi, and Steph. The kids can walk to the house....and they do. Even in the snow. Its pretty cool. Takes the driving out of visitation and its way less limited. The moving finally ended on Saturday....immediately following that wrap up (it took us 2 weeks to get out) i sat on the couch and the sickness consumed. Feeling much better today, but the mountain of unpacking is staring me in the face.
In other news, wedded bliss is on the horizon. Before anyone gets too excited....its massively unofficial. No ring or definite plans....but a date. Dec 21, 2012. As long as I have lived side by side with Mr. Clark its never been anything at all that I even gave a second thought to. It was never going to be on the table. We would live untraditionally happily ever after as we do now....with very few rules or regulations and an unscathing honesty with one another. so in a very Carrie Bradshaw/Mr. Big fashion we decided to get married....sitting in the movie theater, watching Harry Potter after a week on the road...he leans over to me and says...."we should get married on the last day of earth". i will leave all the details for another blog but this can be considered the unofficial announcement of the unofficial engagement.
Life out here. So so different. I dont know where anything is in my home or in the neighborhood. it will all come with time...but i hate having to find my bearings. all the houses look the same (no offense to anyone, but they do) its all very neutral. i am sure i will have many a story to tell about neighbors and all the ins and outs of the subdivision life. i do plan on investigating all the rumors and elaborating on my findings so stay tuned. and if you need to get away from the fast paced city life....come visit me sometime.
