I Will Not Pee 4 A Week!!!!

I just have received the 

BEST Christmas present EVER!!!
My sister sent it to me from Canada...

Apart from the sweetness of the card (that made me cry an ocean - I don't know if at this moment I have enough water in my body, I think I am not going to pee for a week or so...), she sent me a book...

It is a compilation of quotes and thoughts by Jim Henson, the creator of The Muppets, and compiled/edited by his daughter Cheryl.

The book is awesome, beautiful and GREEN!

The title is like that song from Kermit 
"It's Not Easy Being Green!"

The introduction of the book says:

"We chose to use it as the title of this book
[regarding using the song as the title of the book]
because its lyrics capture not only the feelings of Kermit the Frog but a universal message that it's okay to be different,
to embrace what makes you special,
and to be proud of it".
I so much love my sister...
What a better way to tell me so many things?
Well, just if I post here the content of the card will you see why I cried like I don't remember crying in a long, long time.

Here you have the video of the song and the lyrics...
Thanks millions Cala-Sito...

[Como le decias a mama cuando estabas pequeña, te quiero mas arriba del cielo y mas abajo de la tierra...]



ARTIST: Muppets
TITLE: It's Not Easy Being Green
Lyrics


It's not that easy being green
Having to spend each day the color of the leaves
When I think it could be nicer being red, or yellow or gold
Or something much more colorful like that

It's not easy being green
It seems you blend in with so many other ordinary things
And people tend to pass you over 'cause you're
Not standing out like flashy sparkles in the water
Or stars in the sky

But green's the color of Spring
And green can be cool and friendly-like
And green can be big like an ocean, or important
Like a mountain, or tall like a tree

When green is all there is to be
It could make you wonder why, but why wonder why
Wonder, I am green and it'll do fine, it's beautiful
And I think it's what I WANT TO BE!

Not to forget!!!

"Within the typical secondary school curriculum, homosexuals do not exist. They are 'nonpersons' in the finest Stalinist sense. They have fought no battles, held no offices, explored nowhere, written no literature, built nothing, invented nothing and solved no equations. The lesson to the heterosexual student is abundantly clear: homosexuals do nothing of consequence. To the homosexual student, the message has even greater power: no one who has ever felt as you do has done anything worth mentioning".

Gerald Unks


But they have been PAIs, they have been successful and happy!!!
And they have had the best of all gifts...
...the promise from their friend that if their kids are gay will not suffer what they suffer...
RIGHT?

A Phone Call...

A Phone call that was made...

that just made you tremble...
that just made you believe more and more in what you think...
that finished in...
"I will call you later"
before it did even started...
Funny ha???

Christmas, time to come together...
And so I wrote, because I believe...
And so I got back a number...

I just wanted to say i am sorry if any "I am sorry" from my side was needed...
Here I am...
There you are...

Happy new year...



Leona Lewis
Run [as you have always done]

I’ll sing it
One last time for you
Then we really have to go
You’ve been the only thing
That’s right
In all I’ve done
And I can barely look at you
But every single time I do
I know we’ll make it anywhere
Away from here
Light up, light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I’ll be right beside you dear
Louder louder
And we’ll run for our lives
I can hardly speak I understand
Why you
Can’t raise your voice to say
To think
I might not see those eyes
Makes it so hard not to cry
And as we say
Our long goodbye
I nearly do
Light up
Slower slower
We don’t have time for that
All I want is
To find an easier way
To get out
Of our little heads
Have heart my dear
We’re bound to be afraid
Even if
It’s just for a few days
Making up for all this mess

When a Song Just Hit You Hard!!! And makes You feel Shit, Sexy Shit!!!

Not much of lyrics, just the needed ones...
And the rythm....
And that's it, I am in tears...

Hope you like it as much as I do...
It makes me happy,
It makes me sad...


It makes me feel alive!



Amy MacDonald
This Is The Life

Oh the wind whistles down
The cold dark street tonight
And the people they were dancing to the music vibe
And the boys chase the girls with the curls in their hair
While the shy tormented youth sit way over there
And the songs they get louder
Each one better than before

And you're singing the songs
Thinking this is the life
And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size
Where you gonna go? Where you gonna go?
Where you gonna sleep tonight?

And you're singing the songs
Thinking this is the life
And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size
Where you gonna go? Where you gonna go?
Where you gonna sleep tonight?
Where you gonna sleep tonight?

So your heading down the road in your taxi for four
And you're waiting outside Jimmy's front door
But nobody's in and nobody's home 'til four
So you're sitting there with nothing to do
Talking about Robert Riger and his motley crew
And where you're gonna go and where you're gonna sleep tonight

And you're singing the songs
Thinking this is the life
And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size
Where you gonna go? Where you gonna go?
Where you gonna sleep tonight?

And you're singing the songs
Thinking this is the life
And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size
Where you gonna go? Where you gonna go?
Where you gonna sleep tonight?
Where you gonna sleep tonight?

And you're singing the songs
Thinking this is the life
And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size
Where you gonna go? Where you gonna go?
Where you gonna sleep tonight?

And you're singing the songs
Thinking this is the life
And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size
Where you gonna go? Where you gonna go?
Where you gonna sleep tonight?

And you're singing the songs
Thinking this is the life
And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size
Where you gonna go? Where you gonna go?
Where you gonna sleep tonight?

And you're singing the songs
Thinking this is the life
And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size
Where you gonna go? Where you gonna go?
Where you gonna sleep tonight?

Where you gonna sleep tonight?

And decided it can be true some times...

Like yesterday...









If I go missing, please don't look for me...
I have decided I wanted to disappear...

Too Silly, Too GOOD!!!

I saw this in one of my friends notes in facebook and could not resist to post it here.
Specially dedicated to Latinos del Mundo!!!
________________


It's a romantic full moon, when Pedro said,
'Hey, mamacita, let's do Weeweechu.'

'Oh no, not now, let's look at the moon!'
said Rosita.

'Oh, c'mon baby, let's you and I do Weeweechu. I love you and it's the perfect time,'
Pedro begged.

'But I wanna just hold your hand and watch the moon.'
replied Rosita.

'Please, corazoncito, just once, do Weeweechu with me.'

Rosita looked at Pedro and said,
'OK, one time, we'll do Weeweechu.'

Pedro grabbed his guitar and they both sang.....

'Weeweechu a Merry Christmas,
Weeweechu a Merry Christmas,
Weeweechu a Merry Christmas,
and a Happy New Year.'
