...sleeping beauty trips me with a frown...
Snow can wait, I forgot my mittens
Wipe my nose, get my new boots on
I get a little warm in my heart when I think of winter
I put my hand in my father's glove
I run off where the drifts get deeper
Sleeping beauty trips me with a frown
I hear a voice "You must learn to stand up for yourself
cause I can't always be around"
He says when you gonna make up your mind
When you gonna love you as much as I do
When you gonna make up your mind
Cause things are gonna change so fast
All the white horses are still in bed
I tell you that I'll always want you near
You say that things change my dear
Boys get discovered as winter melts
Flowers competing for the sun
Years go by and I'm here still waiting
Withering where some snowman was
Mirror mirror where's the crystal palace
but I only can see myself
Skating around the truth who I am
but I know, dad, the ice is getting thin
When you gonna make up your mind
When you gonna love you as much as I do
When you gonna make up your mind
Cause things are gonna change so fast
All the white horses are still in bed
I tell you that I'll always want you near
You say that things change my dear
Hair is grey and the fires are burning
So many dreams on the shelf
You say I wanted you to be proud
I always wanted that myself
When you gonna make up your mind
When you gonna love you as much as I do
When you gonna make up your mind
Cause things are gonna change so fast
All the white horses have gone ahead
I tell you that I'll always want you near
You say that things change my dear
Never change...
Tori Amos, "Winter"
...just love this song...my anthem through much of high school...just a beautiful song...

Brrrrr...freeeeezing here today at work! Rainy and cold thanks to Jeanne and they still have the stupid AC on!!! Come on people! My fingers are so cold they're doing that shrinking thing and now my rings keep flipping around on me which drives me nuts! *grumble*
Erin called in sick today. Sara's been at meetings all morning and she doesn't feel so good (I told her to go home). No Stupid today...so just me and the lab - got quite a bit done so yay me. Course I'm skipping out early today so I can get home, shower, and eat something quick before driving out to UMass with Andrew and T. Really really hope the show is good tonight!
Ok heard the most disturbing thing today...Perfect Circle did a remake of Lenon's "Imagine" - can you say creepy, freaky, and wrong???!!!! Oh wow it's just morbid sounding...really it freaks me out *shivers*
Must remember to remind Mom to tape "Lost" for me...ah I know *writes note on back of hand*...hehehe just like Dom! ^_^
Sort of in a funky mood...not good not bad...just funky - maybe it's the weather...rainy days are for: (a) taking nice long walks in the rain so I can jump in puddles and enjoy the muted grayness (b) curling up under a big fluffy blanket in pjs and listening to the rain while reading a good book...or...(c) sitting down with a cup of hot chocolate in my pjs and writing...
Course I can't really do any of those stuck at work (blah)...maybe the next rainy day will be on a weekend :)
