Every have one of those days?

One of those days when you could take someone and set them in a room and have them totally focus on you and listen to you and hear what you have to say to them? In this particular case I would sing, and to them i would sing the following.

U2 - Kite
Something is about to give
I can feel it coming
I think I know what it means
I'm not afraid to die
I'm not afraid to live
And when I'm flat on my back
I hope to feel like I did

'cause hardness, it sets in
You need some protection
The thinner the skin

I want you to know
That you don't need me anymore
I want you to know
You don't need anyone, or anything at all

Who's to say where the wind will take you
Who's to say what it is will break you
I don't know, which way the wind will blow
Who's to know when the time has come around
Don't want to see you cry
I know that this is not goodbye

In summer I can taste the salt in the sea
There's a kite blowing out of control on a breeze
I wonder what's gonna happen to you
You wonder what has happened to me

I'm a man, I'm not a child
A man who sees
The shadow behind your eyes

Who's to say where the wind will take you
Who's to say what it is will break you
I don't know, where the wind will blow
Who's to know when the time has come around
I don't want to see you cry
I know that this is not goodbye

Did I waste it?
Not so much I couldn't taste it
Life should be fragrant
Roof top to the basement
The last of the rocks stars
When hip-hop drove the big cars
In the time when new media
Was the big idea
What was the big idea?

*shrugs*

La La La How Life Goes On:

Ob-La-Di-Ob-La-Da...

Since the first of the year, my girlfriend and I have been looking at houses to buy. A house is something I never imagined I would have, ever. To be truthful it is not really going to be mine at all, but I get to live there and work on it. I am not going on any of the paperwork and we are not married, but we have been together for about 13 years now so it feels like marriage and it feels like my house too. It is probably the closest thing I will ever have to a house so I am just going to enjoy it. We make an offer on the house today and see where it goes from there. We are both very hopeful and she made sure she picked a house that would accommodate children... yeah children. She wants to have kids with me?! Me?! Does she know who I am?

I think I am a decent guy but role model? Oh hell no. Scares me a little to think what kind of child I would raise. But if she thinks I am good enough to reproduce and add my 2 cents to the worlds population I guess that says a little about how she feels about me. Kinda makes me smile. My whole world is standing on the precipice of change, what shall become of Mr. Mundane I wonder..
