One Thing ~ Finger Eleven

Restless tonight
Cause I wasted the light
Between both these times
I drew a really thin line
It’s nothing I planned
And not that I can
But you should be mine
Across that line

[Chorus:]
If I traded it all
If I gave it all away for one thing
Just for one thing
If I sorted it out
If I knew all about this one thing
Wouldn’t that be something

I promise I might
Not walk on by
Maybe next time
But not this time
Even though I know
I don’t want to know
Yeah I guess I know
I just hate how it sounds

[Chorus x2]

Even though I know
I don’t want to know
Yeah I guess I know
I just hate how it sounds
Even though I know
I don’t want to know
Yeah I guess I know
I just hate how it sounds

[Chorus x3]

I had a great visit home this weekend. I was so happy to see everyone again, and I hope that everyone was just as happy to see me too. Liz, I wish I could have stayed with you at the bar for a little longer, but it turns out that it was a good thing that I didn’t. I didn’t ditch you I swear.

It sucked that most of my family was sick during the time that I was there, but so was I. It wasn’t a big deal at all. I got to see some people that I hadn’t seen for a long time, and even if it was only for a few moments, it was worth being able to give them hugs and say hi.

It was my dad’s birthday on Sunday, which was the main reason I went home this weekend. We got him a nice photograph of some boats, he collects that kind of stuff, the newest version of Flight Simulator, and Monty Python’s The Meaning of Life. I love my dad for all the cool stuff that he got me and my brother into, like Monty Python and really good old music, like jazz and blues. Stevie Ray Vaughan = God. He told me just before I left that me being there made his day. That made my day.

So, Tuesday will be 6 months for Andy and I. I’m a little sad that we won’t actually get to spend it together, but we spent most of today together, so I guess it’s not too bad. I can’t believe it’s been so long already. I guess after having spent so many years in separate towns, 6 months is a drop in the bucket, right? I really enjoyed the time we spent together this weekend. Happy 6 months, babe.

I had a great time on Saturday night. Liz, Jen, and I went to the Voodoo around 12 and hung out at the top of the stage. I managed to get myself in for free again. Jared is my hero yet again for that. While we were sitting there, Richard found us. He was so drunk already. I never realized how entertaining he is when he’s wasted, probably because every time he was drunk and I saw him I was too. He insisted on poking me every chance he got, and justified it by saying that it was because I was his "little brother’s girlfriend." No, Richie and Andy aren’t related really, but Rich, Chris, and Andy are so much alike that I swear that Rich could be part of the family. Some times I think that Andy and Rich have more in common than he and Chris do, and they really are brothers. Anyways, I got sidetracked. I didn’t really want to leave early but my ear was really beginning to hurt so I had to leave. I got it check out the next day; I have an ear infection. Joy. [/sarcasm] At least I don’t have the risk of my ear drum bursting this time.

So now that I’ve rambled on for almost a whole page in my Word program, not including my trademark opening song lyrics, and not really said anything at all, I’m going to wrap this up. I hope everyone had as great of a weekend as I did, what with closing night and Jordan’s birthday, on top of other things I’m sure I haven’t heard about. I shall be at karaoke on Wednesday as long as Geoff is still willing to drive me home, maybe pick me up too if I can’t get there myself. I heart you for that, by the way, Geoff.

And this is me saying good night...
