Movies & Songs
I had a sloth-like weekend. The most productive thing I did was watch the Houston-Dallas playoff game. Entertaining game.
Then we watched a bunch of movies. My friend is still a ship sailor, so he doesn't get many chances to sit around undisturbed, watching movies and nibbling on snacks. So, as much as possible, I hook him up. Throw him a baptist pallet on the floor, give him the keys to the DVD case and let him go wild.
Movie part: We watched SHAOLIN SOCCER, KING AURTHUR, THE 13th WARRIOR and DEAD SIMPLE. It was a good weekend, but , like I already said, sloth-like.
Oh yeah, I made baked ziti for the first time ever and I flat nailed it. It was good.
Song part:
Melissa Will Carry No Blame (Slow Blues)
I ain't nobody but I've still got feelings.
And sometimes I feel like I'm lost in the fray.
I don't ask for much, but I'm asking for something.
Something that ain't always slipping away.
She said "You remind me of soft guitars playing.
They still make me smile, but don't set me on fire."
Well if I could hold her I'd make her feel different.
But right now I can't even call her a liar.
Who am I trying to fool?
Must be me.
Her heart was not subject to change.
Melissa will carry no blame.
Yeah, we all get crazy as time starts to passing.
Start seeing each other as stars in the night.
Stars that will shoot off or burn out I'm guessing,
rubbing two wrongs together she's still got no right.
To pass through my life like a shimmering heat wave.
Burning me up with no hope of relief.
So I wore my heart on my sleeve for her pleasure.
But she wouldn't take what she could not have seen.
When do I think I will learn?
I'm on fire.
And though she may dance in the flames.
Melissa will carry no blame.

Wrote this on a berthing barge with sweat drippin down my nose. Basically I was in a steel can, under the summer sun, with no air conditioning. The circumstances sucked mightily. Hopefully the song sucks less so.
