Once upon a midnight dearie
I woke with something in my head
I couldnt escape the memory
Of a phone call and of what you said
Like a game show contestant with a parting gift
I could not believe my eyes
wow. that is so much of the lyric it has to be a dead giveaway as to the song... I must be getting soft if I'm making these THIS easy.

By the way, this week's NTT has a theme. See if you can figure it out.
You say that we've got nothing in common
No common ground to start from
And we're falling apart
You'll say the world has come between us
Our lives have come between us
But I know you just don't care
game rules here.
One day I'm gonna write a poem in a letter
One day I'm gonna get that faculty together
game rules here.

I am surprised at how calm I am over this. I thoroughly expected to freak out.

If tomorrow morning the sky falls... have clouds for breakfast.
If night falls... use stars for streetlights.
If the moon gets stuck in a tree... cover the hole in the sky with a strawberry.
If you have butterflies in your stomach... ask them into your heart.
If your heart catches in your throat... ask a bird how she sings.
If the birds forget their songs... listen to a pebble instead.
If you lose a memory... embroider a new one to take its place.
If you lose the key... throw away the house.
If the clock stops... use your own hands to tell time.
If the light goes out... wear it around your neck and go dancing.
If the bus doesn't come... catch a fast cloud.
If it's the last dance... dance backwards.
If you find your socks don't match.... stand in a flowerbed.
If your shoes don't fit... give them to the fish in the pond.
If your horse needs shoes... let him use his wings.
If the sun never shines again... hold fireflies in your hands to keep warm.
If you're afraid of the dark... remember the night rainbow.
If there is no happy ending... make one out of cookie dough.
I cannot say it better than Stepto, or Tony, or Michele. But for what it is worth...
Watching Matt, Ellen, Ella and Emma (ME3) throughout the pregnancy and 4.5 months of the girls lives has reminded me on a near daily basis to live life and be thankful for the people who mean the most to me. Don't take for granted that you will have time, or health, or opportunity. And while that may sound depressing, it isn't. I find it tremendously inspiring. Inspiring to LIVE every day, make it count, do the most with it.
Thank you Matt for sharing your family story with the world. Thank you Ellen for showing me faith. Thank you Ella for giving me hope. Thank you Emma for being a fighter for as long as you could - the world is a better place for having had you in it.
time-saving tools... like a spell checker?
oh dear god. I got addicted to matt_k's twitter feed with updates on Emma. Then amused by stepto's twitter feed posts. And before I knew it, I was twittering. Often from my iPhone.
I've turned into THAT dork. I am not proud of this. And yet, I can't seem to stop. The little random comments that aren't worth a full blogpost here are ending up in Twitter. As with my blog, they are empty calories (just bite sized), irrelavent and pointless diversions that serve no purpose but to amuse me. You've been warned.
