No idea why i'm on such a cowboy wisdom trip right now. At this very second..i have my International Relations notes perched upon my knee..two empty cups of coffee, and a dear Lord i've been up since 5, it's 10 minutes past my bedtime, and i'm gonna suck it up head fuzz feeling. I was listening to one of my cowboy cds,and this song came on. And i just though, hey..listen up blue eyes, thank goodness you've had the CHANCE to be here, studying your brains out. Thank GOODNESS you've got people around that care whether or not i comprhend realism vs. liberalism. AND THANK EVERYTHING that i have the ability to get my tush out of bed at 5, get stuff done and still be going at 9, with nothing harmed except my whining reflex. It's pretty awesome that i'm this tierd, because..gosh darnit, i work hard to be this tierd at the end of the day. I even wore mascara. So..Chris Ledoux says it best, and i shall place his lyrics here so you too may have his healing words pick you up. :-)P.S. Chris Ledoux is my hero. He's right up there with Garth and Willie. If you don't know who he is, or how to pronounce his last name..shame on YOU..hehe

Ramblin' fever took him
When he was 21
Tonight's rodeo is over
But the fight has just begun
He was pounded into the ground
While chasin' after his dream
But he ain't one for layin' down and livin' in misery

You gotta' cowboy up
Dust yourself off
Get back in the saddle
Give it one more try
Sweat and blood
It takes all you got
Cuz' the road to heaven is a hell of a ride
The tough get goin' when the goin' gets rough
Cuz' they know they got to cowboy up

He stopped off at a road side bar
To have him a beer or two
He was leanin' on the juke box
When he saw her across the room
He asked her for a dance
Cuz' he had a case of love at first sight
But he didn't take it personal
When she said you're not my type

You just cowboy up
Dust yourself off
Get back in the saddle
Give it one more try
Sweat and blood
It takes all you got
Cuz' the road to heaven is a hell of a ride
The tough get goin' when the goin' gets rough
Cuz' they know they got to cowboy up

(hey)

From business suits
To cowboy boots
It hurts when you get thrown
But if you're gonna' be the best
Well you got to get back on

And cowboy up
Dust yourself off
Get back in the saddle
Give it one more try
Sweat and blood
It takes all you got
Cuz' the road to heaven is a hell of a ride
The tough get goin' when the goin' gets rough
Cuz' they know they got to

Cowboy up
Dust yourself off
Get back in the saddle
Give it one more try
Sweat and blood
It takes all you got
Cuz' the road to heaven is a hell of a ride
The tough get goin' when the goin' gets rough
Cuz' they know they got to cowboy up
