My sunshine

If you're reading this, then it's you. Actually I just read the complete lyrics for the super sweet "You are my Sunshine", and lo and behold, that song takes a pretty dark twist. It's not the super duper sweet sweet sugary sweet song you think it is. well it is for the most part - let's check out the lyrics.


I've include the chords just in case you want to play along. or maybe it's cause I', lazy. You decide. But if you decide not to learn to play this song on guitar -- well who's lazy now? you are.

You Are My Sunshine:

The other night dear as I lay sleeping,
I dreamed I (D)held you in my (A)arms,
When I a(D)woke dear I was mis(a)taken
And I hung my (E)head and I (A)cried,

Chorus:
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine,
You make me (D)happy when skies are (A)gray,
You?ll never (D)know dear, how much I (A)love you,
Please don?t take my (E)sunshine (A)away,

I?ll always love you and make you happy,
If you will (D)only say the (A)same,
But if you (D)leave me to love an(A)other,
You will regret it (E)all some (A)day,

Repeat Chorus

You told me once dear, you really loved me,
and no one (D)else could come be(A)tween,
but now you've (D)left me and love an(A)other,
you have shattered (E)all my (A)dreams.

Okay, that's the end of the song. Pretty f'd up huh? My mom used to sing that to me when I was a kid. I don't recall her singing the whole thing. Of course that would explain a whole lot...

So anyways... If you sing this to someone you love, don't sing them the whole thing. Unless they break your little emo heart. Omg this is the first emo song. That's why emo is so dark. Someone took their sunshine away. And it all started here. Holy crap. Look what you just learned on my blog. This will be a great drunken conversation piece at some awesome party, where some cute little drunk chick is gonna be so fascinated in anything you say. This will work. Drunk chicks love pop culture theories. but that's for another blog. Good luck and let me know how it works out for you.

Rent my house

this charming 2.5 bedroom 1.5 bath is awesome. And I can't afford it while I pay my own rent. This place rocks, and it was a good idea at the time. We had lots of fun there, and it's not a bad place. Yard, garage, huge kitchen, laundry, and a tiny basement. It's in a sweet neighborhood, and is perfect for rock and roll, and beer. Go check it out, then sign a lease, and pay me to live there. You'll love it. seriously.

Jerry Mason

No, not the crime solving lawyer. I'm talking Jerry Mason - the singing gypsy pioneer. He called the office today and asked to speak with Bill Lawrence. He was a sweet old guy, and I checked out his website. Here it is for all interested.

For all of you who think gypsies are no more than baby stealing nomads, think again. THis guy performed on TV and plays music. That's what I gather anyway. I have to figure out how he got his web page to actually smell like the produce section.

Your day getting better

See? doesn't that help?

I want to point out that if someone arranged this photo shoot, there MUST be a video to go along with it. I mean, if you were gonna take a picture of a kitten and some ducklings, wouldn't you want to record them playing around for a little? I gurantee there was a fair amount of playing. I want to see that video...

I suppose there is a chance that the kitten ate the ducklings afterward. Cats eat birds.
