::Emotional Rollercoaster::


Yeah...I busted another one of those "can't sleep because I'm thinking about too much crap and can't shut the fuck up" deals. I figured that I'd be productive, so after doing a load of laundry, folding it, washing dishes, general tidy up stuff, and sketching, that I'd try my hand at writing right about now. I'm just trying to reflect on all the happenings lately. For the past couple of weeks I haven't really given much thought to some things unless they're brought up in conversation or triggered by whatever. I wouldn't consider it a bad thing because I've been able to get more meaningful sleep lately. Can't really consider it a good thing either because I've almost been blatantly ignoring things. I'm in a weird place in a particular relationship with another person right now. I thought we had resolved stuff, and we're working on our issues, but I have this nagging little shit in the back of my mind. I don't want to lose this person because of all the stuff we've lived through, but then again it's like things are to the point where it's time to just drift a little...maybe. To you nosy people out there, I ain't even going to give you a clue who the person is. Many of you who know me would know who the person is, but you wouldn't expect it was this person. So HA...only like 1 person knows who I'm talking about, and I know that they wouldnt' tell you who it is for all the riches in the world. We got that trust thang going on ya heard? So yeah...anyway...I was watching insomniac theater on VH1. Damn they play some pretty good videos. I got to watch 7 Nation Army by the White Strips. BRENNA JACK WHITE IS WITH RENEE ZELWEGER! That's the odd match I was trying so hard to remember that one day. I watched the Zephyr Song by the Chilli Peppers. That video is a straight up acid trip. I swear you can get high off the video alone. There were a few other good music videos, but I was switching back and forth between VH1 and Nick at Nite. I watched parts of Perfect Strangers and Head of the Class, what else was on? Oh well...can't remember. Whatever, the point of this post was to put up a link to Vivian Green's video, "Emotional Rollercoaster". I have her CD and have been bumpin it again lately. I really like this song and thought it would be a good idea to share. So here's the link:


Emotional Rollercoaster (Full length RealVideo)


And now here are the lyrics...they're good shtuff-es:


Verse 1: Last night I cried tossed and turned
Woke up with dry eyes
My mind was racing, feet were pacing
Lord help me please tell me
What I have gotten into
Ran my three miles to clear my mind
It always helps me out, it's my therapy
When I'm losing it, which is usually


Hook:I'm on an emotional rollercoaster
Loving you ain't nothing healthy
Loving you was never good for me But I can't get off
This emotional rollercoaster
Loving you ain't nothing healthy
Loving you was never good for me


Verse 2: Yesterday I told myself I was gonna be okay
Gonna start a new day be truly happy
I was gonna take control of me
But eventually reality hit me
Mentally, physically, emotionally
And I opened my eyes and realized
That I was still being taken for a constant ride


Hook


Bridge:So tired of you making love to me
Then disappearing so suddenly up and down it goes
I'm tired of you pacifying me with promises you know
That you'll never keep Round and round it goes


Hook


So yeah, I see it's starting to get light again. I seriously can't sleep right now and I'll be paying for it at work today. Ugh...disgusting. I still have some stuff I can do...so I'm gonna do it. I'll be needing a whole lotta coffee today. I can always sleep later. Good thing I decided to not take summer school.


Random Blurb: I need an on and off switch for my thoughts. I think I'd get waaaaay more sleep if I had one.
