Sting - Mad About You
A stone's throw from Jerusalem
I walked a lonely mile in the moonlight
And though a million stars were shining
My heart was lost on a distant planet
That whirls around the April moon
Whirling in an arc of sadness
I'm lost without you, I'm lost without you
Though all the kingdoms turn to sand
And fall into the sea
I'm mad about you, I'm mad about you
And from the dark secluded valleys
I heard the ancient songs of sadness
But every step I thought of you
Every footstep only you
And every star a grain of sand
The leavings of a dried up ocean
Tell me, how much longer? How much longer?
They say a city in the desert lies
The vanity of an ancient king
But the city lies in broken pieces
Where the wind howls and the vultures sing
These are the works of man
This is the sun of our ambition
It would make a prison of my life
If you become another's wife
With every prison blown to dust
My enemies walk free
I'm mad about you, I'm mad about you
And I have never in my life
Felt more alone than I do now
Although I claim dominations over all I see
It means nothing to me
There are no victories
In all our histories, without love
A stone's throw from Jerusalem
A walked a lonely mile in the moonlight
And though a million stars were shining
My heart was lost on a distant planet
That whirls around the April moon
Whirling in an arc of sadness
I'm lost without you, I'm lost without you
And though you hold the keys to ruin
Of everything I see
With every prison blown to dust,
My enemies walk free
Though all the kingdoms turn to sand
And fall into the sea
I'm mad about you, I'm mad about you
I walked a lonely mile in the moonlight
And though a million stars were shining
My heart was lost on a distant planet
That whirls around the April moon
Whirling in an arc of sadness
I'm lost without you, I'm lost without you
Though all the kingdoms turn to sand
And fall into the sea
I'm mad about you, I'm mad about you
And from the dark secluded valleys
I heard the ancient songs of sadness
But every step I thought of you
Every footstep only you
And every star a grain of sand
The leavings of a dried up ocean
Tell me, how much longer? How much longer?
They say a city in the desert lies
The vanity of an ancient king
But the city lies in broken pieces
Where the wind howls and the vultures sing
These are the works of man
This is the sun of our ambition
It would make a prison of my life
If you become another's wife
With every prison blown to dust
My enemies walk free
I'm mad about you, I'm mad about you
And I have never in my life
Felt more alone than I do now
Although I claim dominations over all I see
It means nothing to me
There are no victories
In all our histories, without love
A stone's throw from Jerusalem

And though a million stars were shining

Though all the kingdoms turn to sand
And fall into the sea
I'm mad about you, I'm mad about you

Sun Goes Down - David Jordan
Open your eyes cuz another day is dawning,
Children of the night , can you hear them all calling.
Stars open up and an angel starts falling,
Listen to their beats, can you hear them hollering
Start in the morning, through to the evening
Dance like you’re the only one around
Move like you want it
Grove like you need it,
Dancing it up till the sun goes down
Free your mind cuz tonight we’re gonna break it down
Shake make it funky down
Get so high as the toxins in your body
Are the bass and the drums and the ra, ra, ra
We’re right on time, & all is fine
If you’ve lost your senses here have mine and..
Lose yourself in the time you awake wait till the evening time
’till the sunshine breaks.
Open your eyes cuz another day is dawning,
Children of the night , can you hear them all calling.
Skies open up and an angel starts falling,
Listen to the beats, can you hear them hollering
Stop in the morning, through to the evening
Dance like you’re the only one around
Move like you want it
Grove like you need it,
Dancing it up til the sun goes down.
Till the sun goes down…
Go Come on for this makes for hysteria
You feelin what we bring to y’all..
Peace and love find yourself gettin down tonight, tonight tonight, tonight
Fire is burning on and there's children in the forest playing
Just come forget this to forget the beats hunting for its prey
Till the sun goes down
Till the sun goes
Sun goes down
Sun goes down sun goes down
Sun goes down!
Open your eyes cuz another day is dawning,
Children of the night , can you hear them all calling.
Skies open up and an angel starts falling,
Listen to the beats, can you hear them hollering
Stop in the morning, through to the evening
Dance like you’re the only one around
Move like you want it
Grove like you need it,
Dancing it up till the sun goes down
Children of the night , can you hear them all calling.
Stars open up and an angel starts falling,
Listen to their beats, can you hear them hollering
Start in the morning, through to the evening
Dance like you’re the only one around
Move like you want it
Grove like you need it,
Dancing it up till the sun goes down
Free your mind cuz tonight we’re gonna break it down
Shake make it funky down
Get so high as the toxins in your body
Are the bass and the drums and the ra, ra, ra
We’re right on time, & all is fine
If you’ve lost your senses here have mine and..

Sewing
wallet
Originally uploaded by soelo
The BF bought me a new sewing machine for Christmas, and I have mostly been using it to repair things and piece quilts. I love it, and have been staying up late sewing all week. On Saturday I made this wallet by following the pattern here. I made a mistake with the coin purse and made a few intentional alterations, but I am happy with the results.

Work
This morning I was actually smiling as I walked in the door to work. I wasn't really happy to see Monday morning, but I'd been thinking about something that makes me happy. I started work by getting lots of little stuff done in preparation for the big monthly thing we are doing in Wednesday. Right before lunch, I see an email from my boss' boss asking a guy in another department for some info on missing data, and I see the guy's reply. It is two terse sentences saying that there is no missing data. My immediate thought is, "What a dick."
We get several things from this guy's department and they are error-ridden and full of holes. I have heard rumors that he and a direct report don't reply to women via email. I've emailed them both about ten times in the past six months and never gotten a reply. I sent out letters with the wrong information in them because of this bad data. I am sick and tird of these jerks. I am also pretty sick and tired of the people in my department who should be dealing with this. It's not my job to deal with them, and if I tried to, I'd probably be reprimanded. Dicks.

2009
I am hoping to do more cooking, cleaning and crafting in 2009. Every year I resolve to eat better and get more organized, and who knows, maybe one of those will happen this year.
