Influencesstill hot sauce.. always the hot sauce. thought i'd update this thing since it had outdated information.. like 3 cats with ex boyfriend and this polyanna optimism that just makes me want to friggin... nah - just kidding.. still optimistic. smile. cheers. i'm happyyyyyy. but let's come clean here. now there are only 2 cats. henry in heaven. also can't quite seem to write in complete sentences or use capitol letters. they say you are supposed to act totally normal around your other cats when one passes away or they freak out so i'm doing my best to not putter around whining 'heeeennnry' and bursting out into tears. i find a tuft of orange fur and it's all over, but i just keep explaining to them that i'm emotional over other things and don't they want some friskies and let's just forget all that and give me the number so i can call...sorry - slipped into who is that - harry chapin? god - 'harry' is almost 'henry'... even my subconscious has been taken over by that little guy.. not harry - henry. don't worry.. i'm not nuts. really - i've overcome the pain/i've learned to take it well/ i only wish my words could just convince myself/that it just wasn't real.. but that's not the way i feel..god he was good (harry, not henry). and it was real - that little tuft of hair proves it. was it even harry? henry was hairy. anyway, i'm pretty sure this should be a blog or something.. all the other sites have music and movies listed in this section and clever metaphorical life things like sunshine and a rainstorm that give insight to their personality. so... let's see. what do i like/ am influenced by: nick cave - 'right out of your hand', roberta flack - 'ballad of the sad young men', jeff buckley - 'lover you should've come over', stevie nicks- 'landslide', stevie wonder - 'ribbon in the sky', the beatles - 'something', regina spektor- 'field below', etc. etc. etc. jaws, the way we were, you can count on me, the notebook... here - i'll copy some of my last entry here to close off this section cuz it remains to pertain.. lol.. I think honesty is the most important thing for my songwriting which leads me to live a lonely existence of rehashing the muddy waters of my faults and love tragedies. I'm definitely hung up on wanting life to be fair and everyone's full story to be told and understood truthfully. I will never be a great educator because of my intelligence for facts or analytical skills, however I'm pretty damn compassionate and will probably draw people to me for some sense that 'I've been there too…' Life is not always heavy and dark, but I do spend time swimming in those areas.
