What's that noise?!

It's me.. breathing through my mouth. Got a wicked cold.I'm siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiick....... *cough* and how can my nose be stopped up AND running?!?! HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE!?!?! Whoever thought that one up deserves a swift kick in the ass. Hmmm, this fever is fryin' my brain. SIZZLIN'!All doped up on cold medicine and nowhere to go.

"Now no one's knocked upon my door, for a thousand years or more. All made up and nowhere to go. Welcome to this one man show. Just take a seat they're always free. No suprise, no mystery. In this desert that I call my soul, I always play the starring role."

Once I get that song out of my head, I'm gonna curl up in bed, maybe hallucinate a little from the fever, and watch Anne Heche skank up another episode of Nip/Tuck. (*** I just watched it.. she wasn't in tonight's episode. ha HA! EAT IT HECHE!!!)somebody. anybody.. make my cold go away.

Seriously.. I need a hug.. and something to blow my nose on. Ya know, whatever ya got.

The sky isn't falling...


and so the meteor shower I've been looking forward to all day was kind of a letdown. Stupid clouds. Stupid cold weather.
it was kind of cool to be standing all by myself outside my house til after midnight though.. listening to leaves crunching on the hill while some giant shadow moved about. I'm pretty sure it was one of my neighbors cattle.. unless it was a really fat deer. You don't see many fat deer though, so I'll stick with it being a cow.
this would have been one of the rare occasions when it would be cool to live waaaay out in the country. I could have done without the pesky traffic and the giant lights my neighbors have.
So I stayed out until I couldn't feel my face anymore, and a couple cats started fighting in the field below my house. There's just something about it that always scares me.. perhaps it's the fact that my cat used to get in rancid fights all the time.. in the middle of the night... right outside my window. It doesn't help that I'm completely disoriented when I wake up... so waking up to a catfight at 3am is enough to give me a coronary.
The clouds broke just long enough for me to see a couple meteors though, so I didn't come away completely empty handed.
So it was worth it.
and I even managed to make a couple wishes..
They are shooting stars after all.

"At my door, the leaves are fallin', a cold wild wind will come.
Sweethearts walk by together, and I still miss someone."
