I Won't Let The Bastards Grind Me Down (Tonight)



Don't believe what you hear
Don't believe what you see
If you just close your eyes
You can feel the enemy


When I first met you girl
You had fire in your soul
What happened your face of melting in snow?


Now it looks like this
And you can swallow
Or you can spit
You can throw it up
Or choke on it


And you can dream
So dream out loud
You know that your time is coming 'round
So don't let the bastards grind you down


No, nothing makes sense
Nothing seems to fit
I know you'd hit out
If you only knew who to hit


And I'd join the movement
If there was one I could believe in
Yeah I'd break bread and wine
If there was a church I could receive in


'Cause I need it now


To take the cup
To fill it up
To drink it slow
I can't let you go


I must be an acrobat
To talk like this
And act like that
And you can dream
So dream out loud


And don't let the bastards grind you down


Oh, it hurts baby
What are we going to do? Now it's all been said
No new ideas in the house and every book has been read


And I must be an acrobat
To talk like this
And act like that
And you can dream
So dream out loud


And you can find
Your own way out


And you can build
And I can will
And you can call
I can't wait until


You can cash
And you can seize
In dreams begin
Responsibilities


And I can love
And I can love
And I know that the tide is turning 'round
So don't let the bastards grind you down

Just came in from working on my tan and my game.  Doyle, Gus & Annie seem like old friends now.  Action Dan, too.

Got my game plan for tonight's free roll.  Stick with my usual MO to chip up early.  Change up my middle game dramatically (fuck it, it can't hurt) and adjust final table mode a bit:  no calling all ins and no playing ace rag.  That should only improve things, it certainly couldn't hurt.

And I WON'T let you bastards grind me down.

Play smart.

Oh and the sox are winning 7-zip, 8th inning in Philly.  Love interleague play - seeing Wake up at bat!

Dogs Are Vermin

I don't like dogs. I don't like dogs. I don't like dogs. I don't like dogs. I don't like dogs. I don't like dogs. I don't like dogs. I don't like dogs. I don't like dogs. I don't like dogs. I don't like dogs. Sugar Bear does. I especially don't like small dogs. I'm considering getting a dog, a chihuaha.  I must be out of my fucking mind.  The dog needs a home and it's free (I'm fucking cheap).  Sugar Bear doesn't know of this thank goodness. OMFG I should just say NO like Nancy Reagan, or as Waffles said, Barbara Bush.  :P Oh and there are a couple of new blogs on the blog roll over yonder. --->  Check out the newbies, Rob and Cranky.  Good shiat. Josie PS I should really just say no instead of ruining my life, right? PPS As luck would have it Sugar Bear has always wanted a chihuahua specifically.  :(  and a duck.

I'm busier than a cat covering up shit on a concrete floor so you'll have to forgive me for not posting today. What, you thought this was a post?  Um, no it isn't. But, if you're desperate to read something about Very Josie, and if you like crafty humor, you could go ---> HERE as this post tickles my funny bone.  Go on now, go THERE and enjoy some fine writing for a change, and tell him Very Josie sent you. Snaps for Josie!  (you have to go HERE to appreciate this line and then come back here to leave me a comment.  Just because I'm too busy to post doesn't mean I don't like getting comments.  Now scoot!)

Upset

I got a lot of much needed sleep last night and woke up with intentions of writing a very funny story but plans have changed my friends. I just read Tony's Latest Post and I'm too worried or upset to write about anything so frivolous.  I think many of his readers just see him as an interesting story, and not a person.  I see the person, who I was trying so very hard to steer away from a train wreck, but it didn't work.  In fact, the part that scares me the most is maybe I, with my good intentions, pushed him further off the cliff.  Maybe I put too much pressure on him to avoid the machines - too much pressure about something he is unable to control.  I need to shut the fuck up and stop giving out unsolicited advice, which most likely will not happen.  I cannot express how badly I feel about this. I was only trying to help because sometimes when you're in the eye of the hurricane you don't have the entire picture, at least not a...
