Lyrics of the Day... For the third time! lol

In honor of Madonna's concert that Dylan is watching so happily on tv right now, here are my favorite Madonna lyrics...

"Sorry"-Madonna

Je suis désolée
Lo siento
Ik ben droevig
Sono spiacente
Perdóname

I've heard it all before
I've heard it all before
I've heard it all before
I've heard it all before
[repeat]

I don't wanna hear, I don't wanna know
Please don't say you're sorry
I've heard it all before
And I can take care of myself
I don't wanna hear, I don't wanna know
Please don't say 'Forgive me'
I've seen it all before
And I can't take it anymore

You're not half the man you think you are
Save your words because you've gone too far
I've listened to your lies and all your stories (Listen to your stories)
You're not half the man you'd like to be

I don't wanna hear, I don't wanna know
Please don't say you're sorry
I've heard it all before
And I can take care of myself
I don't wanna hear, I don't wanna know
Please don't say 'Forgive me'
I've seen it all before
And I can't take it anymore

Don't explain yourself 'cause talk is cheap
There's more important things than hearing you speak
You stayed because I made it so convenient
Don't explain yourself, you'll never see

Gomen nasais [Japanese. English translation: "I am sorry"]
Mujhe maaf kardo [Hindi. English translation: "Please forgive me"]
Przepraszam [Polish. English translation: "Sorry"]
Sli'kha [Hebrew. English translation: "Forgive me"]
Forgive me...

(Sorry, sorry, sorry)
I've heard it all before
I've heard it all before
I've heard it all before
[repeat]

I don't wanna hear, I don't wanna know
Please don't say you're sorry
I've heard it all before
And I can take care of myself
I don't wanna hear, I don't wanna know
Please don't say 'forgive me'
I've seen it all before
And I can't take it anymore

I don't wanna hear, I don't wanna know
Please don't say you're sorry
(Don't explain yourself cause talk is cheap)
I've heard it all before, And I can take care of myself
(There's more important things than hearing you speak)
I don't wanna hear, I don't wanna know
Please don't say 'forgive me'

I've heard it all before
I've heard it all before
I've heard it all before
I've heard it all before

Depressed...

I'm having a hard time dealing with being far away from family the past few days. I'm really down. And to tell you the truth, I don't want Dylan to wake up. Cause I'm so down I'll drag him down and I'd just rather he sleep. He's happier that way. I'm so depressed. All I want right now is to just be able to hug my mom and to sit down and pet a kitty. I'm so fucking lonely it's crazy. I never knew being surrounded by hundreds of thousands of people in a city could make you feel so damn lonely.

Lyrics of the Day... Again

"Gunnin'"- Hedley

Tell me what I'll never be
Make me feel broken
Tell me what I should believe
I didn't know it was broken

And I'm gunnin' for you
I'm gunnin' for you
And I will wait, I'll write another letter to myself
And I will find out that morning comes faster alone

I hate the way you look at me
As if I was broken
And the perfection of my frailty
Has been questioned and broken

And I'm gunnin' for you
I'm gunnin' for you
And I will wait, I'll write another letter to myself
And I will find out that morning comes faster alone

And I feel like I'm fine today
I feel like I'm ready to take this on
And I'll fight you to the grave for it
I'll never let you take a part of me with you

And I will wait, I'll write another letter to myself
And I will find out that morning comes faster alone
The perfection of my frailty has been questioned and broken

Lyrics of the Day

"I'm not Ok (I Promise)"- My Chemical Romance

Well if you wanted honesty, that's all you had to say.
I never want to let you down or have you go, it's better off this way.
For all the dirty looks, the photographs your boyfriend took,
Remember when you broke your foot from jumping out the second floor?

I'm not okay
I'm not okay
I'm not okay
You wear me out

What will it take to show you that it's not the life it seems?
(I'm not okay)
I've told you time and time again you sing the words but don't know what it means
(I'm not okay)
To be a joke and look, another line without a hook
I held you close as we both shook for the last time take a good hard look!

I'm not okay
I'm not okay
I'm not okay
You wear me out

Forget about the dirty looks
The photographs your boyfriend took
You said you read me like a book, but the pages all are torn and frayed

I'm okay
I'm okay!
I'm okay, now
(I'm okay, now)

But you really need to listen to me
Because I'm telling you the truth
I mean this, I'm okay!
(Trust Me)

I'm not okay
I'm not okay
Well, I'm not okay
I'm not o-fucking-kay
I'm not okay
I'm not okay
(Okay)

I'm in love...

Wish we had our own place. I'd be going to get this little boy and taking him home with me....

Jericho@the Saskatoon SPCA

(Edit: I guess Jericho has found a home because he's no longer at the shelter. Hope everything goes well for him!)

Cookie Recipes

I had this great idea just now, I just wish we could afford the postage. lol On the page that's going to be the first link they show sugar cookies decorated to look like postcards. That lead me to think "Hey, wouldn't it be cute instead of sending Christmas cards to send Christmas card COOKIES instead???" Damn postage. lol Oh well, maybe I can do it for the people around here. And watch out US family, postcard cookies will be coming your way next year! Anyway, on with the recipes...

Don't ask me why these are called 3-in-1 sugar cookies. The recipe doesn't say and it isn't blatantly obvious.

3-in-1 Sugar Cookies

These may be another candidate for the "in a jar" gift idea since they have relatively few wet ingredients and are a little different than most people would ordinarily make. I want to give something that is a little out of the ordinary, something a little more "gourmet" than the traditional sugar cookies, chocolate chip cookies, etc...

Spice Cookies

These sound really pretty and I think I saw the show they're featured on. I love Sandra Lee's show, I wish we got it out here, but I guess Food Network Canada is out of the loop when it comes to her greatness. ;)

Stained Glass Cookies

Biscotti Recipes

I'm doing "biscotti in a jar" recipes to give for Christmas, so I thought I'd post some great biscotti recipes on here.

The first one is my favorite so far. Chocolate and coffee, mmmmmm......

Cappuccino Biscotti

This one is more classic. Too bad I can't enjoy it, damn almond allergy...

Almond Biscotti

These ones look so good... Note to self: Check out Safeway's nut section for hazelnuts....

Chocolate Hazelnut Biscotti

This one is probably one I'll include already made up with the "in a jar" gifts to people out here, to give them a taste of biscotti. With the recipe included of course. :) (Warning: This link has a pop up)

Gingerbread Biscotti


Next: Cookie recipes....

Lyrics of the Day

Yay, first lyrics of the day on my new blog!!!!

"More Than Anything"

I love you more than anything,
Than anything, I do.
And I'd give anything and everything
I have just to be with you.

These feelings I hold inside are emotions,
I can not hide.
These feelings will not subside
I'd give anything when I look into your eyes,
I see something special about you,
And when I hold your hand,
You seem to understand that.......

I love you more than anything,
Than anything, I do.

And I'd give anything and everything
I have just to be with you.

When I think of life without you,
It brings me right down to my knees, YEAH!
Cause I can't enjoy life without you,
You're my strength the thing that keeps me holding on.

I love you more than anything,
Than anything, I do.
And I'd give anything and everything
I have just to be with you.

Oh, I'd do things that can't be done.
I'd fly to the moon and around the sun, oohh,
If you just say that I'm the one
I'd do anything, anything, well, well

I love you more than anything,
Than anything, I do.
And I'd give anything and everything
I have just to be with you.
I'd give anything, you know I'd do anything for you.
I love you more than anything, more than anything!

Book Craving....

Ok, so I read this book in high school that was a memoir of a Holocaust survivor and now I can't remember the name of it. I've tried everything I could possibly think of and I can't find it. I know the author was a woman and at the end she ended up marrying one of the soldiers that came and rescued her (I think). Wish I had more readers, then I bet someone would know what the hell I'm talking about! lol

(Edit: Right after I post this I find it... lol It's called "All But My Life" by Gerda Weissman Klein. It's a very very good book. I think I let Sherry borrow my copy a long long time ago and I never got it back.)

Frustration... And Happiness... Oh what a day!!!

So today has been a fairly horrible day. I've been snappy and mopey and weepy all damn day. Stupid hormones *thinks of the end of Robot Chicken where they say "Stoopid Monkey!"*

But now I sit here eating a bologna and potato chip sandwich (mmmm, Old Dutch crispy bacon chips....), I just finished watching the trailer for Hanson's documentary, and I just got back from a walk. It would be an understatement to say my mood has improved. I hope the documentary comes to the Galaxy Cinemas theater. Which is where Dylan starts work tomorrow night, yay!

Good luck hunny, since I know you read my blog every time I post! ;)

(Edit: I forgot, here's a link to the trailer I was talking about...)

OH THE INDIGNITY!!!!!!!

Here's a picture of Chico in his new boots. Pardon the wee wee shot, he wouldn't pose for anything better so Tammy just had to hold him up. She took a better picture but won't have the internet till tomorrow, so I'll post it when I get it.
