It's past midnight! My wife's gonna kill me! Everytime I come home late I try to be as quiet as possible because I don't wanna wake her up. I'll park my car to houses away, I'll close the door very carefully, I won't even go to the restroom, because the toilet flush would wake her. But still, she wakes up every time and my life a living hell."<br />Carl smiles, drinks up and then says, "John, you're doing it wrong. When I come home late I drift into my garage. I slam the door, I go for a piss and when I enter the bedroom I yell, "Babe, I wanna sleep with you right now!" ... And all I hear is *enter snoring sound here*"<br /><br />Yes it's lame.

No? Cheesy chick flick but so sad and touching and although Gerry, the male protagonist, dies, it is full of hope and also it helped me to cope with everything when I was really distressed at some point in my life.<br /><br />Anyway, when I first saw the movie, I watched it with my now ex-boyfriend, Robert.<br />Back then - yes that is a couple of years ago - I was pretty much in love with him [Don't ask me why ^^ He is like the strangest guy on earth, I will post about that...], and when I saw that movie and how much Gerry loved his wife Holly and how he tried to still give her all of his love even though he already had passed away, that really touched me especially in the lovesick mood I was in back then and I wanted to be my relationship just like that ^^ [rrrrriiiiiighhhhtttt...]<br /><br />One important part of that movie is the song "Love you till the end" by The Pogues - it's really a tremendously great song.<br />And to be honest ... I WANTED THAT SONG TO BE 'OUR' SONG ^^ [rrrrrriiiiiiiighhhhhhhttttt...]<br /><br />A few weeks after watching that movie with Robert, he calls me in the middle of the night and this is what he told me:<br />"Guess what", he said.<br />"What, what is it?! It's in the middle of the goddamn night!"<br />"So, I was just sitting on my balcony with Meinhard..." <br />Meinhard is his best buddy. If I didn't know exactly that Robert is straight, then I would say he's definitly gay and in love with Meinhard. Those guys are like the weirdest thing ever. They touch each other, rub each other against themselves, talk dirty to each other, are in a band together and they tattle just like girls... Now to be honest, I've never been a fan of Meinhard. He is a punk, coming from a rich family background, though. He'd always try to mooch a ciggie or some food from friends. And he is generally so ...LOUD. Like really loud and annoying and noisy and when he's around it seems like there is no space for you, because he has such an ... 'overwhelming personality'.<br />And I was like "Ok, what did you guys do? What happened?!"<br />And Robert goes on, "Nothing, just listen. So we are sitting at the balcony, eating cookies and smoking and drinking beer, while listening to an album from The Pogues. Remember that song from that movie? 'Love you till the end'?"<br />I was like "Yeah?" Like really hoping that destiny wanted this to be our song ...<br />"Yeah well, it came on, and then Meinhard and I looked at each other, laughing because it's such a cheesy song, and suddenly there was a FIREWORK! A really nice one. And this song was playing in the background. And we were laughing so hard. I mean how cliché is that? THAT love song *and* a firework?!?! So Meinhard and I decided that this was gonna be like 'our song'. You know? Isn't that funny?" <br /><br />... Yeah, it was so funny that I almost had to cry ^^Stevensonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08315685915834197462noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1754473400605712452.post-54552385807963325222010-08-17T15:20:00.000-07:002010-08-17T15:25:33.663-07:00Just wondering...how people would react if I just dissappeard from one day to the next. Alex Supertramp - I feel you! Leaving everything behind and not caring about shit and all those crappy people seems like a nice choice to me now. Cancelling everything, throwing the cell into a river, deleting every social network you're on. Donating all money you've got left. I'd maybe leave some letters for those people I really care for and some notes about what I *really* think for those who are giving me this shitty time.<br /><br />Freedom is just another word for nothing left to lose.Stevensonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08315685915834197462noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1754473400605712452.post-15138371379568962362010-07-06T16:43:00.000-07:002010-07-06T16:45:14.914-07:00Lights will guide you home.Top 5 songs that make me cry.<br /><br />Coldplay - Fix you.<br />The Goo Goo Dolls - Iris.<br />Amanda Marshall - I believe in you.<br />Ryan Adams - Come pick me up.<br />Paramore - The only exception.Stevensonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08315685915834197462noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1754473400605712452.post-17931588004056195872010-03-29T18:49:00.000-07:002010-03-29T18:55:21.563-07:00This song simply gives me goosebumps.Love the song lyrics. I never looked at Karma that way. "You wish you had somebody that would come and make it right."<br /><br />Plus, the video is just great. I don't wanna know how much they spent on it. But hey: Scarlett Johansson, a big car crash, the background dancers... love it. You really hate that bitch when she cheats on him, but the end is just... heavy.<br /><br />http://www.myvideo.at/watch/5605738<br /><br />And last but not least: I really really like JT's look in that video.

My skill level is so high I do things I don't even try to do.'<br /><br />'I gotta get me a pair of those,'she said, eyeballing my shorts. 'I've still got pretty good legs, you know.'<br />Grandma Mazur had knees like doorknobs. She'd been a beauty in her time, but the years has turned her slack-skinned and spindle-bones.

'Is he dead?'<br />'I don't think so.'<br />'He smells dead.'<br /><br />I stumbled forward, slamming into the wall of Morelli's chest.<br />'Looking for me?' he asked.<br />'You might as well give up,'I told him, 'because I never will.'<br />The line of his mouth tightened. 'Tell me about it. Suppose I lay down on the pavement and you run over me a few times with my own car... just for old times. Would you like that? Do you get your money dead or alive?'<br />'No reason to get testy about it. I have a job to do. It's nothing personal.'<br />'Nothing peronal? You've harassed my mother, stolen my car, and now you're telling people I've gotten you pregnant! In my opinion, getting someone pregnant is pretty fucking personal! Jesus, isn't it enough I'm accused of murder? What are you, the bounty hunter from hell?"<br />'You're overwrought.'<br /><br />Ranger thanked Vanessa. Told her how he appreciated her help. Anytime, Vanessa said. And if he ever needed a room, or for that matter, if he ever needed anything at all... anything, he should remember about her. Ranger assured Vanessa she was unforgettable, and we left on that note.<br />'Boy,' I said when we were out on the street. 'Mr Charm.'<br />'In sweats too,' he said. 'You should see me work my magic on leather.'Stevensonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08315685915834197462noreply@blogger.com0
