What? More Boingo?

You worry too much
You make yourself sad
You can't change fate
But don't feel so bad
Enjoy it while you can
It's just like the weather
So quit complaining brother
No one lives forever!!

Let's have a party there's a full moon in the sky
It's the hour of the wolf and I don't want to die

I'm so happy dancing while the grim reaper
cuts, cuts, cuts
But he can't get me
I'm as clever as can be, and I'm very quick,
But don't forget we've only got so many tricks
No one lives forever!!!

You think you got it rough?
What about your darling doggy?
Ten short years,
He's getting old and groggy
I don't think it's very fair
Cold, chop, low, but it's all relative my friend;
No one lives forever!!!
Let's have a party there's a full moon in the sky
It's the hour of the wolf and I don't want to die

(But) No one beats him at his game
For very long but just the same
Who cares, there's no place safe to hide
Nowhere to run--no time to cry
So celebrate while you still can
'Cause any second it may end.
And when it's all been said and done . . .
Better that you had some fun
Instead of hiding in a shell,
Why make your life a living hell?
So have a toast, and down the cup
And drink to bones that turn to dust,
'Cause No one, no one, no one, no one . . . . . . .
No one lives forever!!
(Hey!)

[Sigh...] Don't you just adore the Boingo-ness?

Being Highly Conservative...

...can certainly be altered, don't you think?
That's what I'm going to think, especially since today I'm being optimistic.

"I have no reason to be over-optimistic, but somehow when you smile I can brave bad weather..."

Name that quote, you muffin! I dare you!

Hmn.

"I should tell you..."

You know what? Mistoffelees (sp?) is my favourite Cat. I think he's adorable. Plus, he's shiny and otherwise magical. Which is more than you can say, isn't it?

"Was there ever a cat so clever as magical Mr. Mistoffelees?"

Pippin

Say what you will, I enjoyed Pippin. Sure, you have to compensate for Fosse's choreography style if you don't like that sort of thing, but overall I loved the story.
Loved it.
Production review, anyone?

"...light is changing to shadow..."

"On the turning away
From the pale and downtrodden
And the words they say
Which we won’t understand
Don’t accept that what’s happening
Is just a case of others’ suffering
Or you’ll find that you’re joining in
The turning away
It’s a sin that somehow
Light is changing to shadow
And casting it’s shroud
Over all we have known
Unaware how the ranks have grown
Driven on by a heart of stone
We could find that we’re all alone
In the dream of the proud
On the wings of the night
As the daytime is stirring
Where the speechless unite
In a silent accord
Using words you will find are strange
And mesmerized as they light the flame
Feel the new wind of change
On the wings of the night
No more turning away
From the weak and the weary
No more turning away
From the coldness inside
Just a world that we all must share
It’s not enough just to stand and stare
Is it only a dream that there’ll be
No more turning away?"
-- Pink Floyd, "On The Turning Away" from the album Momentary Lapse of Reason

[*] This sums up everything. Everything.
[*] I love this song.
[*] I... I think I love him. Whoa.

"...have you forgot about me?"

[Song: "Don't Stop Dancing" by Creed from the album Weathered]
"At times life is wicked and I just can't see the light. A silver lining sometimes isn't enough to make some wrongs seem right. Whatever life brings, I've been through everything, and now I'm on my knees again, but I know I must go on. Although I hurt I must be strong, because inside I know that many feel this way. Children, don't stop dancing. Believe you can fly away...away. At times life's unfair and you know it's plain to see. Hey God I know I'm just a dot in this world; have you forgot about me? Whatever life brings, I've been through everything, and now I'm on my knees again, but I know I must go on. Although I hurt I must be strong, because inside I know that many feel this way. Children, don't stop dancing. Believe you can fly away...away. Am I hiding in the shadows? Forget the pain, and forget the sorrows. Am I hiding in the shadows? Forget the pain, and forget the sorrows. But I know I must go on. Although I hurt I must be strong, because inside I know that many feel this way. Children, don't stop dancing. Believe you can fly away...away. Am I hiding in the shadows? Are we hiding in the shadows?"

[First; Urk]
Nervous about tonight's concert? Why, yes! Why, you ask? Well, maybe because I'm running on three hours of sleep and have two big projects overdue that I'd hoped to work on tonight. Eff.
