There seems to me- a curse to be, on our happy love… All things flip side- these days collide, we need a head above… There’s always a niche, we forgot to fill- a crevice we did not see, a fortitude of measure, Bad luck you better believe… Even commonplace mishap I’ve shoveled to this curse Bad luck gets so ugly good luck just gets worse… Examples? I’ve got plenty First to top this list the electric bill skyrockets every time we kiss… (smiles here…so this one is NOT so bad) Secondly, of mundane things The price quote for car repair Began at just disaster Now ranks in hell somewhere The reverse has died in hubby’s sweet hot rod The damn thing stalls, no matter where- when it’s my turn to shop… The bank account hates my guts (I swear it’s in for me) Every time I check the thing- I feel the need to scream! Thirdly? Of this summer- Accursed California heat already burns my face bright red Not to mention my poor pale seat! (grins here) Too much for me to mention I’m at my crazy wicks end I think it’s time for sedation Bring it on, time to begin!!! Hubby and I decided it is- “Hormonal Hatred” disease, I believe we have a point- I wanna be sedated, PLEASE??!! My oh MY what a month!!!! Open arms can be the most fragile in the world...

"Twenty-twenty-twenty four hours to go. I wanna be sedated! Nothing to do and nowhere to go-o-oh. I wanna be sedated!" Now that I have that Ramones song stuck in my head permanently, I will express my sympathies... I'm going to be *gulp* finally moving out in September, so I can't wait for the panic of having no money whatsoever as I scrabble to fend for myself. "Es ist Folter, aber ich bin fast dort."

lol..seems the things that just have to happen around us when we want to be wrapped in each other get just plain annoying, eh? I hope I got the right idea from this. If not..then just let me wander off into my own interpretation..lol..I'm better off that way, and sooner or later I'll smack my head on the real thought. **giggles** Loved this! I will not bend to the cowardice of a silent judgement. |

Have you been peeking at my life Tanya? I feel for ya', I know exactly where you're coming from! ~*Sigh*~ And hey, use some sun block on that seat of yours. I remember, a sun burn there is a painful thing!  ~Sheri "The things that come to those that wait may be the things left by those who got there first" [This message has been edited by Irie (07-03-2002 06:11 PM).] |

I lived there for 18 years and know exactly what you mean. You added a smile to my day with this read and I thank you for that. You also reminded me of why I don't regret moving from California. It does have it's charms, but none that I care to afford anymore. Wonderful read. |

A much enjoyed piece here. Very creative! And while describing all that can go wrong, you add in just the right amount of humor. Enjoyed the write. ~Titus As I'm out there, walking, searching, for myself, for you.... won't you join me? Let's walk this journey together. |

"Secondly, of mundane things The price quote for car repair Began at just disaster Now ranks in hell somewhere" now there's something i can relate to. thanks for the laughs; i enjoyed this very much. and boy-o, do i sympathize. it's our struggle for identity that leaves us all unknown |
