“Sometimes it takes an overwhelming breakdown to have an undeniable breakthrough”, – Unknown

Talk about a breakdown…. hahahahaha… I guess I was due.  I have changed my plans, changed my focus, gone through a costco case of tissues, broken out like a teenager and finished a bottle of tequila. I have been so worried about disappointing everyone (don’t ask me who everyone is because I have no idea) that I rushed into some “career” decisions that I was not ready for. In the last three days my little world has gotten smaller and happier.  

I look forward to sharing everything with you all in the next few days.

“Learning To Live Again”

I burned my hand, I cut my face
Heaven knows how long it’s been
Since I’ve felt so out of place
I’m wonderin’ if I’ll fit inDebbie and Charley said they’d be here by nine
And Deb said she might bring a friend
Just my luck, they’re right on time
So here I go again

I’m gonna smile my best smile
And I’m gonna laugh like it’s going out of style
Look into her eyes and pray that she don’t see
That learning to live again is killing me

Little cafe, table for four
But there’s just conversation for three
I like the way she let me get the door
I wonder what she thinks of me

Debbie just whispered, “You’re doin’ fine”
And I wish that I felt the same
She’s asked me to dance, now her hand’s in mine
Oh, my god, I’ve forgotten her name

But I’m gonna smile my best smile
And I’m gonna laugh like it’s going out of style
Look into her eyes and pray that she don’t see
That learning to live again is killing me

Now here we are beneath her porch light
And I say what a great time it’s been
A kiss on the cheek, a whisper goodnight
And I say, “can I see you again”

And she just smiles her best smile
And she laughs like it’s going out of style
Looks into my eyes and says, “We’ll see”
Oh this learning to live again is killing me
God this learning to live again is killing me
