Sometimes you have to let go...

Ain't no talkin to this man
Ain't no pretty other side
Ain't no way to understand the stupid words of pride
It would take an acrobat, and I already tried all that so
I'm gonna let him fly
Things can move at such a pace
The second hand just waved goodbye
You know the light has left his face
But you can't recall just where or why
So there was really nothing to it
I just went and cut right through it
I said I'm gonna let him fly

There's no mercy in a live wire
No rest at all in freedom
Of the choices we are given it's no choice at all
The proof is in the fire
You touch before it moves away
But you must always know how long to stay and when to go

And there ain't no talkin to this man
He's been tryin to tell me so
It took awhile to understand the beauty of just letting go
Cause it would take an acrobat, I already tried all that
I'm gonna let him fly
I'm gonna let him fly
I'm gonna let him fly

~Sometimes you have to let go, take a deep breath, and move forward with your life.

Let Him Go and Go Get Better

If he ain’t gonna love you the way he should, then let it go...
If he ain't gonna treat you the way he should, then let it go...

Girls, I love you, but stop settling for less than you deserve. Better to be alone than with someone who doesn't recognize just how lucky he is to have you in his life, and treats you accordingly. I see it all the time - gorgeous amazing women dating men who repeatedly screw them over and prove that no, not everyone deserves a second chance, much less a third and a fourth. So seriously ladies, recognize that you don't need him. You'll be fine without him. In fact you'll be better than fine, you'll be better without him. You'll be happy. You'll be sane! So let him go and go get better.

Are French Maids from England?

So let me tell you a few things I learned recently: Cuba is a communist country and we are apparently not allowed to go there. Mt. Everest is not in Nebraska. And when the King of England ordered to have all the Danes killed, he wasn't talking about dogs. Those that know me lovingly and laughingly refer to these as Mel moments. I once asked if pork chops came from pig - really? Did I really say that out loud?? This is not to say that I am unintelligent (though I realize this puts it into question), but rather I just don't think before I speak. I am however capable of laughing at myself and sharing so that others may as well. Not that anyone is actually reading my blog... but whatev.

Halloween

Halloween was awesome! The best ever was seeing KathyLo aka the Gnome giving a lap dance!! To see the Travelocity Gnome giving Speed Racer a lap dance go HERE!

First Blog Ever

Okay, so this is my first blog, and as such I want to give a shout out to my BFF Ash who set me up. Ashlee is my best friend notoriously known as (by me...) my partner in crime. She is always there when the sh*t hits the fan (and not in a good way!) and I love her in a non-lesbian (most of the time) way. Did you put it in neutral??!!
