Look Who's Riding My Coattails Now

So I was listening to my iTunes on shuffle, and this song came on.  Let's just say I was outraged! I thought one artist stealing my phrase was just a coincidence. But now this?!?! Shoot me once, shame on me.  Shoot me twice...uh...you can't shoot the shooter, heh heh!  It's a good song, though, so you should probably listen to it. (In this short blog, I've 'stolen' lines from both Stephen Colbert and Mike Birbiglia, but I'm still supes pissed at Keith.  I'll bring it up at our next couple's therapy session.  Why does he always have to bring Nicole with him?).






Somebody Like You by Keith Urban


There's a new wind blowin' like I've never known
I'm breathin' deeper than I've ever done
And it sure feels good, to finally feel the way I do

Now, I wanna love somebody
Love somebody like you

An' I'm lettin' go of all my lonely yesterdays
I've forgiven myself for the mistakes I've made
Now there's just one thing, the only thing I wanna do, mmm, mmm

I wanna love somebody
Love somebody like you

Yeah, I wanna feel the sunshine
Shinin' down on me and you
When you put your arms around me
You let me know there's nothing in this world I can't do

I used to run in circles goin' no-where fast
I'd take, uh, one step forward and two steps back
Couldn't walk a straight line even if I wanted to, mmm, mmm

I wanna love somebody
Love somebody like you
Whoa here we go now

Yeah, I wanna feel the sunshine
Shinin' down on me and you
When you put your arms around me
Well, baby there ain't nothing in this world I can't do

Sometimes it's hard for me to understand
But you're teachin' me to be a better man
I don't want to take this life for granted like I used to do, no, no

I wanna love somebody
Love somebody like you
I'm ready to love somebody
Love somebody like you, ooh

An' I wanna love somebody
Love somebody like you, yeah

Oh yeah oh, I wanna be the man in the middle of the night
Shinin' like it's true
I wanna be the man that you run to whenever I call on you
When everything that loved someone finally found it's way
Wanna be a better man, I see it in you, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, you wanna believe it

Something Like A Cross Between a Blonde and Racist Moment

       So I was watching an episode from Season 2 of LOST, which, by the way, really annoys me.  Mostly because I do not give a flip about the 'tailies' and both Michelle Rodriguez and her character piss me off.  Plus, Desmond just disappears until the end of the season.  Why would you torture me like that?  I know, I know, I am being quite the negatarian. ANYWHO, I'm not quite sure how to best capture the hilarity of the situation, and to allllll my followers out there who don't watch LOST, it's not going to be funny, nor will it make sense.  Moral of the story: watch LOST, dammit!
      Ok, so I'm watching this scene between Mr. Eko and Bernard. And it goes like so:
*Cue very dramatic background music and extremely serious, somber attitudes*
"I heard you were the one who pulled the dead bodies out of the water" -Bernard
 Nice ice breaker, Bernard. I'll have to use that the next time I find myself in a natural disaster. 
"Yes" -Mr. Eko
"Were any of them African American?" -Bernard
What the?!?! *starts cracking up* Why would you ask that? See how he's coping with having to carry any of  'his people' out of the ocean? That's so rac... OOOO!! Never mind. *stops laughing* 


I felt really stupid after I realized what he was asking. Maybe I shouldn't watch LOST so late at night. Or maybe I should, so far it's been a hell of a lot funnier, even if it doesn't make as much sense. Who am I kidding? LOST never really made any sense.

I had wanted to write a more meaningful blog, but this situation just presented itself, and who am I to deny myself the opportunity to talk about LOST?

Goodnight, World. Goodnight, Sideways World.
