gggrrrrrr- NOT A GOOD DAY
Two songs sum up my feelings today... my annoyance with people and with the pissed off mood everyone gets around this stupid holday. funny- both songs are from Guys and Dolls
SUE ME:
You promise me this, you promise me that
You promise me anything under the sun
Then you give me a kiss,
And your grabbing your hat
And your off to the races again
When I think of the time gone by
And I think of the way I tried!
I could honestly die.
You gamble it here,
You gamble it there
You gamble on everything, all except me
And I'm sick of you keeping me up in the air
Till your back in the money again
When I think of the time gone by
And I think of the way I tried!
I could honestly die.
You're at it again,
You're running the game
I'm not gonna play second fiddle to that.
And I'm telling you now that we're through!
When I think of the time gone by
And I think of the way I tried!
I could honestly die.
Adelaide's Lament Lyrics
The average unmarried female
Basically insecure
Due to some long frustration may react
With psychosomatic symptoms
Difficult to endure
Affecting the upper resperatory tract.
In other words, just from waiting around for that plain little band of gold
A person can develop a cold.
You can spray her wherever you figure there's streptococci lurk
You can give her a shot for whatever's she's got, but it just won't work
If she's tired of getting the fish eye from the hotel clerk
A person can develop a cold.
It says here:
The female remaining single
Just in the legal sense
Shows a neurotic tendancy, see note: (looks at note
Chronic organic symptoms
Toxic or hypertense
Involving the eye, the ear, the nose, and throat.
In other words, just from worrying if the wedding is on or off
A person can develop a cough.
You can feed her all day with the vitamin A and the bromofizz
But the medicine never gets anywhere near where the trouble is.
If she's getting a kind of name for herself, and the name ain't his
A person can develop a cough.
And furthur more, just from stalling, and stalling,
And stalling the wedding trip
A person can develop la grippe.
When they get on that train to Niagara
And she can hear church bells chime
The compartment is air conditioned
And the mood sublime
Then they get off at Saratoga for the fourteenth time!
A person can develop la grippe,
La grippe.
La post nasal drip.
With the wheezes
And the sneezes
And a sinus that's really a pip!
From a lack of community property
And a feeling she's getting to old
A person can develop a bad, bad cold!
(ADELAIDE sneezes)
and just to throw in the Reprise lyrics...
In other words
Just from sitting alone at a table reserved for two
A person can develop the flu.
You can bundle her up in her woolies
And I mean the warmest friend
You can wrap her in sweaters and coats
Till its more than her brain can stand
If she still gets the feeling she's naked
From looking at her left hand
A person can develop the flu, the flu
A hundred and three point two
So much virus inside
That her microscope slide
Looks like a day at the zoo
Just from wanting her memories in writing
And a story her folks can be told
A person can develop a cold.
so if you aren't in the musical reading mood tonight, let me sum it all up here.
SUE ME:
I'm sick of having things promised to me and then have them shattered all in front of my eyes. I have a life to live too, and I don't want to wait around for someone who may happen to hold up their end. Yes, sometimes I forget to do something, but as soon as I remember I will go out and do it. In a way I start feeling used, especially when people ask me to help, yet don't even have the common courtesy to let me know when they are doing the thing they needed help with. It is so annoying to get a message from someone in the dorm asking for a favor, yet they decided to do it for themselves without letting me know that I no longer have to do it, causing the favor to be done twice over... I'm sick of it. If you use and abuse me... that just makes me less likely to help again in the future...
Adelaide's Lament Lyrics:
Yes... I know it is Valentines Day and people are getting all luvvie-dubbie... but STOP MAKING A SCENE SO EVERY SINGLE BOY AND GIRL AROUND HERE DOESN'T HAVE TO PUT UP WITH YOU OBNOXIOUS COUPLIE MOMENTS!!! I think I speak for many people that the single ones don't need yet another reminder that they are alone for the holiday... or upset those who don't have their significant other near them this time of year. I totally approve of getting your girl flowers or a gift and bringing it around campus- but ladies.... PLEASE... don't carry said flowers/chocolates/stuffed animals to every class you have flaunting that you have something others don't. YES- wish people a Happy Valentines Day- but don't try to force-feed your tongue down your sig.fig.'s throat when surrounded by many people. IT ISN'T COOL. Save it for the dorm room.
And for all of you who may think I'm just annoyed that I don't have anyone this holiday... you are partially right. That is the beauty of Anti-Valentines Day celebration with your other single friends... that will be celebrated in Fairchild tomorrow. But at the same time... this holiday is way too commercialized... today alone I spent close to $30 getting gifts for my other single friends to sooth the singleness of the day. As much as I want someone in my life like that, right now it seems too cheap and cheesy to hook up right at this time of year.
Sorry- end of rant... I promise. Back to your regular happy lives.
Happy Valentines Day to all the singles out there and good couples who don't flaunt their relationship. To the rest of you- tone it down or cut it out.
SUE ME:
