Ever get a song that sticks in your head for days?
Somehow it starts off as catchy and strangely compelling, especially one specific line.
Then a few days in, with it looping continuously in your mental soundtrack, it is no longer so cool.
You start to dread that one frikkin line that has slowly lost all meaning as it hovers over you like

oh, absolutely. i mean, i'm not too worried about getting a job, because i work as a waitress now and i think that'd be easy to land, but last time i moved out there it was without enough money to sustain me and things got pretty pathetic. i want to avoid that this go round!!

It's the price you pay to live in a paradise! So worth it though! I used to live on Vancouver Island, in a tiny village called Brentwood Bay. It was a 15 minute bike ride from Butchart Gardens. What a dream place it was. 
I am thinking of all of you in New Zealand. Stay safe!!

Another major earthquake - as of last night 65 people dead in ChristChurch.

Awesome songs!
anarkiti:
Thanks! I put up another one for you to enjoy! 
Some creepiness for you....
throughnthrough:
love the profile pic!! 
pumpnhump:
Awesome, BRB checking under my bed for that creepy lady from the second video before she goes Praying Mantis on me. First one was really cool kind of reminded me of Nutcracker Fantasy which terrified me as a youngin.
Mildly disturbing but in an awesome way.
elisabeth:
Thanks for sharing your story and your words of encouragement. It's all going to get better, it has to, right?
I like Florence and the Machine more and more these days.

You bet it will get better! Keep your chin up Sweetie!
Oh if only. LOL
Wow. I think my fever broke. {feels forehead} That was nuts! I don't normally get sick and certainly not at that speed of "affliction" and then recovery. At around 8ish last night I started to feel a bit "off" and by midnight I had raging chills, sweats and muscle cramps all over my body. I took a cool bath around 1 to lower my temperature...

Not relieved, it's still a lot of work. But very excited!
Sunday Morning
Sunday morning arrives with a grey brightness reflecting off the snow, my bleary eyes squinting their protest. The stamp on the back of my hand blurred, random tufts of hair on my head and black smears of eyeliner all signs of a good time the night before. My body is rebellious, wanting to simply curl up and go back to sleep but I...

Hope you had a great night. I was in a similar boat, but I was up early taking my daughter to hockey after a night out.
anarkiti:
I had a fantastic night. Thankfully! It made up for the exhaustion. I never realized that Sneaky Dee's had dancing, always thought it was live shows. They start off the night with 50s music, then each hour go up a decade. So much fun!
By noon, I actually felt like myself again and was able to do all the necessary odd jobs around the house, then go to my small business group and finally to a Super Bowl Party with the little one. I never thought I'd say this but I actually enjoyed Super Bowl thanks to all the crazy long hair, beards and extensive tattoos.
Only problem now is, I am being punished for my night out with a terrible fever with crazy chills and aching muscles. I had a cool bath in the middle of the night to lower my temperature. And I am up again after only sleeping for an hour because my temperature is way up again. I am going to finish this bottle of water with a chaser of Advil (which I never ever take) and hope that I can stop these cold sweats long enough to fall asleep again. I feel like someone has been punching me over and over all over my body.
I have two other toddlers to look after in the morning which is chaos incarnate. I am praying that I get at least *some* sleep in order to survive until nap-time!
Gah. It is hard when the caregiver of everyone is sick. There's no one left to look after you.
