.: Missing Vinyl :.



Right now, right at this moment, I'm listening to Kate Bush's Hounds of Love album on LONG PLAYING format.

I'd dug a pile of my old albums from out of the side attic and in it I found Kate Bush again. I forgot how much I used to play this album. Again and again on my nasty green portable LP player. Luckily, unicorn has a phonograph. Lordy, I feel ancient just typing "phonograph".

I'd actually fallen upon Kate Bush's work .. you I don't know how exactly but I know I had the 'This Woman's Work" CD. I'll always say that album is remarkably autobiographical for me. Explains alot about me and what I've experienced...

Most recently, I'm discovering songs that sample Kate Bush's work or worse there is a cover of this song... I could cry...


Running Up That Hill (A Deal With God) - Kate Bush



"If I only could, I'd be running up that hill.
If I only could, I'd be running up that hill."

It doesn't hurt me.
Do you want to feel how it feels?
Do you want to know know that it doesn't hurt me?
Do you want to hear about the deal that I'm making?
You, it's you and me.

And if I only could,
I'd make a deal with God,
And I'd get him to swap our places,
Be running up that road,
Be running up that hill,
Be running up that building.
If I only could, oh...

You don't want to hurt me,
But see how deep the bullet lies.
Unaware I'm tearing you asunder.
Ooh, there is thunder in our hearts.

Is there so much hate for the ones we love?
Tell me, we both matter, don't we?
You, it's you and me.
It's you and me won't be unhappy.

And if I only could,
I'd make a deal with God,
And I'd get him to swap our places,
Be running up that road,
Be running up that hill,
Be running up that building,
Say, if I only could, oh...

You,
It's you and me,
It's you and me won't be unhappy.

"C'mon, baby, c'mon darling,
Let me steal this moment from you now.
C'mon, angel, c'mon, c'mon, darling,
Let's exchange the experience, oh..."

And if I only could,
I'd make a deal with God,
And I'd get him to swap our places,
Be running up that road,
Be running up that hill,
With no problems.

And if I only could,
I'd make a deal with God,
And I'd get him to swap our places,
Be running up that road,
Be running up that hill,
With no problems.

And if I only could,
I'd make a deal with God,
And I'd get him to swap our places,
Be running up that road,
Be running up that hill,
With no problems.

If I only could
Be running up that hill
With no problems...

"If I only could, I'd be running up that hill.
If I only could, I'd be running up that hill."

.:My Cat Hates Me :.


Sleeping Roy Boy

And probably for good reason. That's not even her in the picture. That's Roy.

She's Dulce... I'd had her for a few years while in Chambana and then up to Chicago when I moved back. Then as I was moving place to place, a lovely dancer took and treated her so well... I must seem like a poor replacement as she's had to let Dulce go since she got a new dog.

But its tough splitting my attention between her and Roy. I'm at the Unicorn's almost half of the week...

It doesn't help that she's so horribly shy and neurotic. See, I can never get a picture of her. Augh... she just hissed at me for apparently petting her too much while I'm on the computer.

Imma going to make a horrible mother.

.: New Junk :.

I've let time on this blog lapse quite a bit...

Unicorn is out of town for a tic so maybe I'll actually get some stuff done? I have been busy lately with work and fixing up the new place...I've even gotten darling Dulce back from a friend that has been holding on to her for me for years...

I'll have pictures of all these things up on my flickr. At least that is my goal. I still have to wait for Dulce to crawl out from her hiding place is one thing...

I also mean to get some artwork done. m's going to be taking some classes this summer and I've got some ideas of my own I'd like to see come into existence. I have to knock off more stuff from the 25 list. The year is passing so quickly...
