Talk To Me @ MindSay 
all talk
Jesus, Speak to Me
by FFH
Can I talk to You a while
Can I lay my weary head
On Your shoulder again
Can I rest beneath Your smile
Will You whisper to me
As I kneel beside my bed
I've been walkin' in the desert
I need to hear from You
I need Your touch, I need Your love
Oh Jesus, speak to me, yeah
I need to hold You oh so close
Oh Jesus, speak to me, yeah
Oh Jesus, speak to me
It feels like I've walked a thousand miles
Just to see the mountaintop
To be above the clouds
But it only takes a while
Until my feet just seem to stop
And I make my way back down
I've been so long in the valley
I need to hear from You
Feels like I'm losing my mind
Going crazy
Feels like I'm running out of time
Come and save me
Just wipe the tears from my eyes
Say it's alright, alright
I can talk!
I can actually, factually talk!
Isn't it great that I articulate?
Isn't it grand that you can understand?
I don't grunt, I don't oink,
I don't even squeak or squawk!
When I wanna say a something,
I open up and talk!
I can talk!
I can talk, talk, talk,
I can talk!
I pop with perspicacity,
I'm loaded with loquacity,
My vocalized veracity is tops!
Semantically each part of me's
The verbalized epitome -
My plethora of patter never stops!
Isn't it great that I articulate?
Isn't it grand that you can understand?
I don't honk, I don't eek,
I don't even squeak or squawk!
When I wanna say a something,
I open up and talk!
I can talk!
I can talk, talk, talk,
I can talk!
It's wondrous and mystical -
I'm hardly egotistical
Because of this linguistical aplomb!
But speaking quite pragmatically
My self-esteem emphatically
Dramatically improved since I was dumb!
Isn't it great that I articulate?
Isn't it grand that you can understand?
I don't honk, I don't eek,
I don't even squeak or squawk!
When I wanna say a something,
I open up and talk!
I can talk,
I can talk, talk, talk,
I can-
*suddenly realizes that the ram is glaring at him*
"Why don't you keep it down?!"
*considers this*
I can talk!!

I can talk again! Not only can I talk, but I can sing!!
I'm happy and bouncy and generally cute and obnoxious! Except that I am, as a rule, NEVER cute.
Well today I had the dreaded meeting with Professor Birkenstock. I got there early so I could have time to stop sweating from my trek across campus. I wouldn't want to meet the man sweating and looking like I've been to an Evangelical Revival. I looked at my watch and saw that I still had about a five minute wait until my 2:00 pm appointment. I decided to see if I couldhave my meeting a bit early, but when I got to his office a visibly upset classmate was sitting in the chair looking quite upset. I heard him say,
"Well, you obviously didn't like what my paper said the last time and I want to know what the deal was."
I tipped-toed back to the study area and immediately called Environgirl to bitch and whine. After all, this guy was going put Professor Lovepeace in a bad mood before I had to see him! "Thanks for warming him up for me asshole!" I cried. E-girl told me to calm down because she had a feeling that things would go well and ya know what? SHE WAS RIGHT! We actually just sat down and talked. He asked me if I liked the format of the class and he asked me about my career plans. Then he said,
"Well, I just wanted to let people know I wasn't the asshole I appear to be in class." I was shocked!

As I've mentioned earlier, I've been feeling under the weather lately. I have a cold or allergy infection and I had a fever this morning. I didn't get to work until 9:00 AM because I was trying to sleep off my fever. I took some Non-Drowsy Tylenol Cold and Allergy tablets and felt so drowsy it took me 10 minutes to brush my teeth. I don't know how I made it to work -- I must have been driving on autopilot. Oh well, that non-drowsy stuff is starting to kick in now...zzzzzzzzzzzzz

Howdy Howdy all!
Well, what do ya know I had Top Blog #4 for my last entry....I feel pretty darn fancy....
Well my day off was good, mostly because I was OFF and no chumps could bother me with the inane!
I have been thinking a lot lately...I know, I know, that's a dangerous way to live, sitting around thinking all the time, but hey, I can't help it. Sometimes I tend to get lost in my own head and it takes some time for me to find my way out. I can literally spend months alone without looking up or dealing with anyone personally (like yakety yaking with friends for more than a second, just enough time to say "I am still alive"). Truth be told, before I started this blog many of my friends would have to guess at what or how I was doing. Not because I am necessarily secretive (although...some shit will stay hidden away in the vault of my consciousness for all eternity). It is just that I am not a talker really...well not on a regular basis for sure. I don't wanna call someone everyday and have to talk about myself and my life. I think that many people spend so much time focusing on themselves that they begin to do the inevitable and dissect themselves down to nothing. I don't want to fragment to the degree that others are constantly trying to pick up the pieces of my life for me everytime we speak. Now I am talking of course about friends, those folks whom you always love but donot necessarily remain close to geographically, I guess in my case family can fit into the same category.
With lovers it is different I think (longterm couples or 3somes and then somes depending on how you roll 
). Maybe it is because with lovers the experiences are processed in terms of how they effect theunit rather than the individual. I know that when I was living with a lover (briefly a million years ago) everything I did was common knowledge and my time felt like community property. I didnt mind at the time but then again I was younger and my tolerance for another mutha fuckas bullshit was balanced with how well they put it down 
after a fight (verbal sparring of course). I mean there was endless conversation about everything...and now I just don't have that kinda thing in me I guess. I like that comfortable silence kinda friendship/love relationship...is that so wrong? Can't we sit together and read or write and KNOW that we are still connecting? Do we have to say EVERYTHING we freaking think? Do people even write to each other anymore..when you have to write something you tend to be more careful and real about what you want to tell the other party instead of spewing in sitcom style dialogue a bunch of nonsense thoughts before getting to the point. It must be me.....
On a happy note I am going to see Stevie Nicks and Tom Petty tonight...Woo Hoooo
How About some poetry...here goes...
Human Abstract
Pity would be no more,
If we did not make somebody Poor;
And Mercy no more could be,
If all were as happy as we;
And mutual fear brings peace,
Till the selfish loves increase;
Then Cruelty knits a snare,
And spreads his baits with care.
He sits down with holy fears,
And waters the ground with tears;
Then Humility takes its root
Underneath his foot.
Soon spreads the dismal shade
Of Mystery over his head;
And the Caterpillar and Fly
Feed on the Mystery.
And it bears the fruit of Deceit,
Ruddy and sweet to eat;
And the Raven his nest has made
In its thickest shade.
The Gods of the earth and sea,
Sought through Nature to find this Tree,
But their search was all in vain;
There grows one in the Human Brain.--William Blake
Goddess Bless
