Saw
The Italian Job last night with
Wendy and
Fran and enjoyed it muchly. Seth Green and Jason Statham kicked ass, and Charlize Theron...
mmmmmmm... Charlize Theron... [insert Homer Simpson drooling noise here]
Okay, so here's my thing with napping. Don't get me wrong -- I
loooooove sleep. Not getting enough of it is enough to put me in a bad mood. And those of you who know me well enough know that (a) waking me up early will be reciprocated by the Wrath of Keith and (b) after waking up, it takes me a while to boot up and get up to full processing speed. We're talking like an hour or so, at least. My friends and roommates (past and present) think it's damn hilarious to see me stumble around and attempt coherent thought and/or conversation right after waking up.
But napping throws all that off for me. Not only does it not make me feel better because of my extended boot-up period, but waking up at a time when I have not slept many many hours just accentuates that. Plus, I get that odd feeling that everything that happened previously that day before I fell asleep for the nap was just a dream. I remember it taking place, but, through the haze, it's almost like it didn't
really happen. I much prefer just sleeping the requisite 8-10 hours I need per night and be done with it, but that never happens because I can't seem to get to sleep until 1am these days, so I have to suffice with 7. I'm too much of a night person to go to sleep early.
So, for my Most Listened-To Song of the Week, I was going to just post the lyrics, but
every single lyrics site that I found on the 'Net had the damn lyrics wrong. You'd think it would be easy for these morons considering the
real lyrics are in the CD inlay, and the lyrics they made up sound
nothing like the actual words! I swear, The Refreshments had it dead on when they said, "Everybody knows that the world is full of stupid people." So for those of you who want to know what the
real lyrics are, just hit more.
Audioslave - "Show Me How to Live"
And with the early dawn
Moving right along
I couldn't buy an eyeful of sleep
And in the aching night under satellites
I was not received
Built with stolen parts
A telephone in my heart
Someone get me a priest
To put my mind to bed
This ringing in my head
Is this a cure, or is this a disease?
Nail in my hand
From my creator
You gave me life
Now show me how to live
And in the after birth
On the quiet earth
Let the stains remind you
You thought you made a man
You better think again
Before my role defines you
Nail in my hand
From my creator
You gave me life
Now show me how to live
And in your waiting hands, I will land
And roll out of my skin
And in your final hours, I will stand
Ready to begin
Nail in my hand
From my creator
You gave me life
Now show me how to live
Show me how to live...
