"Against All Odds"

How can I just let you walk away
Just let you leave without a trace
When I stand here taking every breath with you (ooh..)
You're the only one who really knew me at all

How can you just walk away from me
When all I can do is watch you leave?
'Cause we shared the laughter and the pain
And even shared the tears
You're the only one who really knew me at all

So take a look at me now
There's just an empty space
There's nothing left here to remind me
Just the memory of your face
But take a look at me now
There's just an empty space
And you coming back to me is against the odds
And that's what I've gotta face

I wish I could just make you turn around
Turn around and see me cry
There's so much I need to say to you
So many reasons why
You're the only one who really knew me at all

So take a look at me now
There's just an empty space
And there's nothing left here to remind me
Just the memory of your face

But take a look at me now
There's just an empty space
But to wait for you is all I can do
And that's what I've gotta face

Take a look at me now
I'll just be standing here
And you coming back to me
Is against the odds
And that's a chance I've gotta face

Take a look at me now
Take a look at me now
(Take a look at me now)
Take a look at me now
(Take a look at me now)
Take a look at me now
(Take a look at me now) [2x]
Take a look at me now
(Take a look at me now) [2x]
Take a look at me now
(Take a look at me now) [2x]
Take a look at me now
(Take a look at me now)
Take a look at me now


got wicker park in the mail today.Im not sure if its my kind of movie or not. Whyd I buy it then? Because the Postal Service cover the song "against all odds" on it. I seriously think its one of the best covers songs of all time. but then most covers are usually missing something. I vaguely remember the original version but i couldnt tell you who did it but i think its phil collins . I just know that the emotional depth of this version crushes me... and so I figured any movie where this is the single for the soundtrack must be interesting. but then, I can be a sappy guy sometimes... blush blush

Do you own Mon Frere's new EP yet?


They're like geek rock led by a woman with a great voice. I'm just throwing it out there, but I think you might enjoy it.
I found out about them through SG, and was pleasently surprised. If I could play an instrument Id want to be in a female vocal led band. why? Well, since Garbage came out way back when Ive always enjoyed a rock band where ladies do the singing.

so, since i had to start all over again on the site, Im willing to beg for you to say something nice again in my testimonials. c'mon, you know you want to stroke my ego!!

you say you dont read web comics? well, if you dont you should at least try reading questionable content from the begining, im so in love with its characters. I want the poster so bad but they dont ship to APO frown

Have you voted for Sarah today? If you havent then help her out! do you really think a girl taking a shit deserves to win?

I would like to keep my friend list exclusive, but I would also like to have more people talk to, what to do, what to do?? Also, has the dating profile worked for anyone? Its a cool concept but it would be awesome of it suggested people you might get along with. Itd have to have a more thought out questionare then though.

"Expo '86" by Deathcab for Cutie

Sometimes i think this cycle never ends
We slide from top to bottom and we turn and climb again
And it seems by the time that i have figured what it's worth
The squeaking of our skin against the steel has gotten worse.

But if i move my place in line i'll lose.
And i have waited, the anticipation's got me glued.

I am waiting for something to go wrong.
I am waiting for familiar resolve.

Sometimes it seems that i don't have the skills to recollect
The twists and turns of plots that took us from lovers to friends
I'm thinking i should take that volume back up off the shelf
And crack it's weary spine and read to help remind myself

But if i move my place in line i'll lose.
And I have waited, the anticipation's got me glued.

I am waiting for something to wrong
I am waiting for familiar resolve
I am waiting for another repeat
Another diet fed by crippling defeat
And i am waiting for that sense of relief
I am waiting for you to flee the scene
As if you held in your hand the smoking gun
And on the floor lay the one you said you loved.

And it's strange
They are basically the same
So i don't ask names anymore.

Sometimes i think this cycle never ends
We slide from top to bottom and we turn and climb again
And it seems by the time that i have figured what it's worth
The squeaking of our skin against the steel has gotten worse.

so i havent much to update on really. I have the weekend off so I do believe I may celebrate by having a drink of guiness or two. also i have some captain morgans left so I may have fun yet this weekend. I will probably be taking pics of Friedberg also, so that will make for an interesting post on monday.
Im hitting the diet routine hard starting tommorow. I feel really puffy. and that is not a good thing. so no more soda(unless its rum and cokes) no more sweets.(yes im even cutting myself off the chocolate chip cookies.) and only two meals a day consisting of mostly fruits and salads with a little meat, depending on how its prepared. so that will be fun. skull skull skull

Ive been waiting for Wicker Park to show up in the mail. Ive never seen it. thought it might be interesting,

well, Heres what makes up a Sag:
Independent, honest, optimistic, friendly, driven, freewheeling, free spirit, good-humored, casual, forthright, philosophical, restless, un-inhibited, adventurous, intuitive, but can be self-righteous, rebellious, irresponsible, careless, inaccurate, superficial, impulsive, outspoken, candid,

so what do you think, does it fit me?

also, heres a photo of natalie portman


chicks, excuse me, what a sexist pig, smile , ladies with mohawks are hot!

So I still havent come up with any ideas on how i can become a resident of colorado. Theres only two ideas i have and neither seem very..... thought out.
plan 1: Marry someone for convience. Yep, Find a girl seeking free rent and bills paid. she must be willing to relocate to colorado. she will recieve a small check as well from me but will have to sign a prenuptuial so that when i get out of the army we can go our seperate ways shortly thereafter. This plan makes me look like a shitbag though.

Plan 2: The next time on leave, go up to colorado and rent a small apartment for the duration of my army contract. doable but i would be almost completly broke while completing my contract. on the other hand it would allow me to go to college for all four years with the GI bill.

neither seems like a good idea. do you have any ideas?

Taking into consideration the sagelike wisdom of Cattra, and fearing I may anger the masters, Ive changed my name to reflect my love of what I consider John Waters best work, But if course Id say that, Im a film geek.Anyways, once again Suicide girls os the highlight of my life, i never can find anything interesting to do here and if I do i usually get bored with it because I have no one to do it with.
sigh, my birthday cant get here soon enough, then Ill get more vacation time in the states.

I need to find a way of becoming a resident of colorado before I get out of the army so I can go to college there for about a quarter of the price an out of state student goes for. frown
