...these are the hands we're given...
I must've dreamed a thousand dreams
Been haunted by a million screams
But I can hear the marching feet
They're moving into the street
Now did you read the news today
They say the danger's gone away
But I can see the fire's still alight
They're burning into the night
Too many men, too many people
Making too many problems
And not much love to go round
Can't you see this is the land of confusion
This is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth living in
Oh Superman where are you now
Everything's gone wrong somehow
The men of steel, men of power
Are losing control by the hour
This is the time, this is the place
So we look for the future
But there's not much love to go round
Tell me why this is the land of confusion
This is the world we live in...
I remember long ago
Oh when the sun was shining
And the stars were bright all through the night
And the sound of your laughter as I held you tight
So long ago
I won't be coming home tonight
My generation will put it right
We're not just making promises
That we know we'll never keep
Too many men, too many people
Making too many problems
And not much love to go round
Can't you see this is the land of confusion
This is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth fighting for
This is the world we live in
And these are the names we're given
Stand up and let's start showing
Just where our lives are going to...
-Genesis, "Land of Confusion"
...a song with a very good message especially considering how the world seems to be today...all over the world...

Happy Birthday Lainey!!! ^_^
Hope you have a great day!!! *big birthday hugs*
Long day at work - was very happy to get home. Mom had her quilting class so I made dinner for Dad and me (just hot dogs and such, but it was rather amusing because seriously, sometimes he is a five year old...I like when it's just Dad and me...we get along great and it's fun). I just find it interesting that the whole atmosphere of the house changes when Mom comes and goes. It was a nice change. Spent 3 hours last night playing more X-Men with Andrew (I'm addicted!)...still haven't unlocked any new characters (sooo close to getting Nightcrawler and Jubilee...3 more levels before Gambit *sigh*) - I love playing with Rogue though because she's real Rogue (not the lame-o version Anna Pacquin has been playing in the movies *resists urge to rant and throw things* She better damn well grow up into ass-kicking, flying, wise-cracking Rogue soon...but I digress...in this game she has this awesome move where she blows a kiss then grabs the enemy, saps their energy then sends them flying across the room! Plus she can break stuff that not even Wolverine can do :D So cool...I blame Andrew...he converted me to the wonders of video games ^_^
Gilmore Girls and Scrubs tonight!!! Yippy! I'm so hyper right now...so not in the mood to do work...then again when am I ever...
Oh and I found out angelic_minx lives in MASSACHUSETTS TOO!!! Small world huh?!
Happy Belated Birthday proverb!!!
Sorry it's late...I didn't realize it...bad me - but hope you had an awesome day!
