let me be the calm that you seek

I love this song. It's so ethereal and romantic. I've listened to it numerous times today. Here's the lyrics.



i have a smile
stretched from ear to ear
to see you walking down the road

we meet at the lights
i stare for a while
the world around disappears

just you and me
on this island of hope
a breath between us could be miles

let me surround you
my sea to your shore
let me be the calm you seek

oh and every time i'm close to you
there's too much i can't say
and you just walk away

and i forgot
to tell you
i love you
and the night's
too long
and cold here
without you
i grieve in my condition
for i cannot find the strength to say i need you so

oh and every time i'm close to you
there's too much i can't say
and you just walk away

and i forgot
to tell you
i love you
and the night's
too long
and cold here
without you




It's even better when you hear it. To me it sounds as if she's singing to a newly reunited lover and she's whispering in his ear as they embrace. *siiigh* I'm such a hopeless romantic.

Anyway, in regards to the interview yesterday, I felt it went really well. She told me what the position entailed. It was basically what I thought. Mostly it's involved with posting charges for services and for payroll. There's a lot of sitting, which compared to all the standing I've been doing it'll be cake. They're gonna be busiest toward the end of the month every month due to making sure everything is posted before the first of the following month, but I think I can handle it.

She said she'd call me Friday since she had other interviews to do, but she said she likes to hire internally, so I have a good feeling.

Mom's been having a bunch of neurological tests done since she apparently had a mini stroke about a month or so ago. I hope they can get everything sorted out so that nothing like this can happen again. Luckily she doesn't seem to have any aftereffects or anything. Hopefully we've seen the last of these little episodes...

I saw some pictures from the wedding we went to last weekend. Mom did a good job, I must say, She got some good angles and close-ups. I saw the one of us that was taken. Egads! I look like the bride of Casper, I'm so white! I generally don't think I take good photos anyway, so I could be somewhat overly critical about these things.

Well, I have to compensate somehow for the lack of romance in my life, so I live vicariously through others... and my imagination.


Thank you very much. I appreciate it.
