Perfect

"Perfect" by Pink

(clean version including song link)

Made a wrong turn once or twice

Dug my way out, blood and fire

Bad decisions, that's alright

Welcome to my silly life

Mistreated, misplaced, misunderstood

Miss "No way, it's all good."

It didn't slow me down.

Mistaken, always second-guessing, underestimated

Look I'm still around.

Pretty pretty please, don't you ever ever feel

Like you're less than, less than perfect

Pretty pretty please, if you ever ever feel

That you're nothing, you are perfect to me.

You're so mean, when you talk about yourself, you were wrong

Change the voices in your head, make them like you instead

So complicated, look happy, you'll make it!

Filled with so much hatred, such a tired game

It's enough - I've done all I can think of

Chased down all my demons, I've seen you do the same

Pretty pretty please, don't you ever ever feel

Like you're less than, less than perfect

Pretty pretty please, if you ever ever feel

Like you're nothing, you are perfect to me.

The whole world's scared so I swallow the fear

So cool in line and we try, try, try, but we try too hard and it's a waste of my time.

Done looking for the critics 'cause they're everywhere

They don't like my jeans, they don't get my hair

Exchange ourselves and we do it all the time

Why do we do that? Why do I do that?

Why do I do that?

Pretty pretty please, don't you ever ever feel

Like you're less than, less than perfect

Pretty pretty please, if you ever ever feel

Like you're nothing, you are perfect to me.

Thankful for a good Valentine's Day and for the awesome people in my life who helped make it that way. :-) I was given a beautiful hyacinth, an amazing cupcake, some yummy homemade cookies and fudge... but it was the thoughts behind the gifts that were what I loved the most. You all know who you are.... Thanks for making my day. :-) And there were many people who made my day just by being in my life, so this is for you too.

And to think I'm normally a 'hater' of Valentine's Days.... lol.

Blue Snow

The snow is making me blue. It followed me from the West apparently. It never snows this much in Tennessee normally.... And I don't think my bad knee appreciates this weather either.

I've always been told water therapy is good for you, but yesterday I tried dog-paddling a few laps in the pool at the gym. It hurt my knee, but I figured it would survive. Today my knee hates me, especially after a little bit of walking in the mall. Came home and had to ice it. Started limping. Darn old ski injury. Darn snow. Nothing good comes of it...

P.S. Don't worry - I am not turning into a full-blown pessimist. I just need more sunlight, literally. I seem to get depressed after too many cloudy days.

Super Bowl 2011

You can tell how much attention I pay to football. I totally forgot tomorrow was the big game until I stopped by the store and everyone and their second cousin Cletus was there....

White and nerdy

Tanning beds are the very devil, but I have a feeling showing up in the Caribbean in March looking like I do now would be even more detrimental to my skin and overall health....
