Life`s unfair huh? Well, stars are stars and will shine. Ain`t nothing anyone can do about that. And you know who I am referring to ( frankly I am unfamiliar with most people on this list.). 🙂 Good seeing you on Twitter today by the way. I am glad we are both getting In Heaven. It`s good to wait and be happy with my friend. 🙂
Yep.Yep.Yep. Me too, me friend. I think I knew one of them too.
Did I see the word ain’t on your comment? You are now a true adopted Southerner. 🙂
I had an unexpected appointment crop up so I just got back on line. I am giddy with joy over the sales on this album. Do you think that JYJ may be popular? 😉 Naw…No way. Anyway, I did order red but it could be chartreuse as long as I get it. After all, the disc should play the same. BTW, thank you for rt’ing my tweet to Jae. I really do love his and all the members photography. Cha
I am? In that case, I must start using that fine word regularly. Thanks for adopting me! I suddenly feel as if I`m Someone. 🙂 Am giddy too. Somehow it means even more this time, probably because the amount of trouble seems to have at least doubled since the last release. Music is a healer, though. They will be alright, won`t they? We will keep loving them. It`s quite unneccessary to say so perhaps, but still, it feels good to think about them. I hope they feel the same way about the fans…Yeah, I`m pretty sure they do. 🙂
I finally managed to catch up with the postings and the correspondance. It is, once again, disgustingly late. A reason why I had to postphone a lot of work was because my mouse broke and I have had a hard time finding something that does not file under wireless. So now I have a Disney Princess mouse. I`m going to lose a lot of cred if this becomes widely known *looks nervously about her* *hides behind laptop* I reckon I`ll have to go online for such things in the future. BTW I greatly enjoyed yours and Ivory`s discourse. It is so much more interesting to read your interpretations of the MV then the usual “I like/I don`t like.”
How is the YouTube publishing coming, by the way? And you`re very welcome with regard to the tweet. 🙂 I have no second thoughts about retweeting things that ar warm , sincere and that make sense. Keep`em coming. ^^
Hey, You. When are you going to write a book? Eloquence galore!!.
You have always been Someone,YF. Don’t ever doubt it.
A Disney Princess mouse, ummm… 🙂 We like Disney around here so no problem. We are all princesses.
Ivory and I can get into areas beyond the norm. Our brains just work that way. If I’m not dissecting something I’m unhappy. Thank you for reading it. I didn’t think anyone ever did. I was under the weather so we didn’t get very far.
As to our mancubs-yes, we keep loving them. Love has to be tough sometimes, too. I believe that they tolerate our ways as much as we do theirs.
Chris just called sick from work so I’m going to be Mom the nurse today. I’ll try to hit Twitter today. Cya Cha
P.S. YouTube’s fine. I like learning new things so I’ll probably publish another video soon.
