What is it lately?

1112000_57583130It just seems of late that I haven’t been wanting to blog at all. Almost as if it’s truly getting old. It’s not as if I have nothing to say. I think I have too much to say. That’s gotta be what it is.

So this week we had the whole thing that happened in Boston with the marathon. I think honestly there can’t be anyone that doesn’t at least have an idea of what happened but for those of you just joining us, there was a bombing at the Boston marathon. The people responsible have been apprehended although one of them is now deceased. Now the hard part begins. Finding out if they were the only ones behind everything or if they had help. I think many people think it’s over, but honestly, I think it’s only begun.

Chiquitita by Abba

abba-chiquitita“Chiquitita, tell me what’s wrong
You’re enchained by your own sorrow
In your eyes there is no hope for tomorrow
How I hate to see you like this
There is no way you can deny it
I can see that you’re oh so sad, so quiet

Chiquitita, tell me the truth
I’m a shoulder you can cry on
Your best friend, I’m the one you must rely on
You were always sure of yourself
Now I see you’ve broken a feather
I hope we can patch it up together

Chiquitita, you and I know
How the heartaches come and they go and the scars they’re leaving
You’ll be dancing once again and the pain will end
You will have no time for grieving
Chiquitita, you and I cry
But the sun is still in the sky and shining above you
Let me hear you sing once more like you did before
Sing a new song, chiquitita
Try once more like you did before
Sing a new song, chiquitita

So the walls came tumbling down
And your love’s a blown out candle
All is gone and it seems too hard to handle
Chiquitita, tell me the truth
There is no way you can deny it
I see that you’re oh so sad, so quiet

Chiquitita, you and I know
How the heartaches come and they go and the scars they’re leaving
You’ll be dancing once again and the pain will end
You will have no time for grieving
Chiquitita, you and I cry
But the sun is still in the sky and shining above you
Let me hear you sing once more like you did before
Sing a new song, chiquitita
Try once more like you did before
Sing a new song, chiquitita
Try once more like you did before
Sing a new song, chiquitita”

Dear Dad…

You passed away on 3/6/13 at about 8:45pm or so. I don’t remember the time, really. Does it matter? Probably not. I wrote something really long and pretty emotional I suppose; but I erased it. It was pretty cheesy.

I’ll leave it at that then.
