New Year's Eve and it's hard to believe
another zodiac has gone around.

While you drank yourself high on hoping
and watched the ceiling spin from the ground.

Counting down from ten it's time
to make your annual prayer.

Secret santa in the sky
when will I get my share?

Then you tell yourself
what you want to hear.

Cause you have to believe.

This will be my year.

This will be my year...Semisonic

I've come through the other side of my slugdom. Yesterday, Gil and I spent the whole day on the couch. To our credit we did move from the upstairs livingroom to the downstairs pit at one point. Admittedly the move was only because the TiVo is located downstairs.

The extent of my efforts was limited to unpacking, laundry and using the I-Tunes Gift Certificate I got via work. My purchases illustrate my conflicted state of mind. Heather P. some of these songs would make it onto my "Saddest Songs Ever" CD. Obviously, "Hey Ya!" is right at the top of that list.

Hey Ya! - Outcast
Not an Addict - K's Choice
At Your Funeral - Saves the Day
Love Song - Tesla
Midnight Blue - Lou Gramm - Gil had never even heard this song before!
Hazy Shade of Winter - The Bangles

In retrospect, though the K's Choice song appears to be about drugs, it sounds a lot like an addictive relationship to me now.

I am back on my game. YIPPEE!

Breathe it in and breathe it out
And pass it on, it's almost out
We're so creative, so much more
We're high above but on the floor

It's not a habit, it's cool, I feel alive
If you don't have it you're on the other side

The deeper you stick it in your vein
The deeper the thoughts, there's no more pain
I'm in heaven, I'm a god
I'm everywhere, I feel so hot

It's not a habit, it's cool, I feel alive
If you don't have it you're on the other side
I'm not an addict (maybe that's a lie)

It's over now, I'm cold, alone
I'm just a person on my own
Nothing means a thing to me
(Nothing means a thing to me)

It's not a habit, it's cool, I feel alive
If you don't have it you're on the other side
I'm not an addict (maybe that's a lie)

Free me, leave me
Watch me as I'm going down
Free me, see me
Look at me, I'm falling and I'm falling.

It is not a habit, it is cool I feel alive I feel...
It is not a habit, it is cool I feel alive

It's not a habit, it's cool, I feel alive
If you don't have it you're on the other side
I'm not an addict (maybe that's a lie)
I'm not an addict...
