A Time Lost But Not Forgotten.

by RapunzelRapunzel @ 03.08.2006 - 23:25:37

To the innocence of youth,
To living for the moment!
When consequences where inconsequential
And eyes shone with love and promise.

I grew and shed the chrysalis,
Let my wings dry on the reed in the sun
My colour changed, I turned beautiful
Spread my wings and flew.

Happy with my choices
Content that I was doing what needed to be done
But it’s never that simple
It’s never black and white.

Are those I left in youth and innocence still there?
Where I left them
It’s usually in the last place you look.
Are they still smoking and laughing the night away?

Or are they in my responsibility hole?
Where I left myself
Or are they enjoying and fretting silliness?
Like I used to.

I wonder if my choices were right
And I wonder what they are doing now
And I wonder if they wonder what I’m doing
And I wonder if they’re right.

Ships that pass in the night
When everyone was asleep
Well I wasn’t sleeping, I saw the other ships
And I waved them goodbye.



 
 

oh my god!

Wow, what a day!

The Chillis were ace. To say the VERY least. Fab set, fab singer, fab bassist, fab drummer, fab guitarist. FAB FAB FAB.

Flea was talking to the crowd and said, 'I've got one thing I want to say to you'

and I shouted at the top of my voice 'You love me!'

and he said, 'I LOVE YOU!'

It was hilarious! I know the way of the Chilli Peppers.

The only annoying thing about the night was that my friends wouldn't let me stalk Anthony (or Tone as I like to call him) I was gutted! They wouldn't let me stay until they left. SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoo annoyed, I don't actually think I'll EVER get over it.

My only chance, gone forever. I'm officially in mourning. sigh....

who's Anthony? who's Anthony?

by RapunzelRapunzel @ 03.07.2006 - 14:20:19

Oh MY!!!! have just purchased ticket to see the RED HOT CHILLI PEPPERS. So excited! I'm going to see them at my home ground, seen them twice before and they rock.

HMMMMM............. Anthony Kiedis.... hmmmmm..... hope he wears that black skirt of his ......... hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.............

I'm going to smuggle myself back stage and offer my body up to his lusciousness. Or if that doesn't tickle his fancy I might ask him round for a cuppa, do you think he'll go for it? I mean, what more would a Californian rocker want than a nice cup of tea and some rich tea biscuits?

OH GOD!!! I love him, I love him, I love him, I love him, I love him, I love him, I love him, I love him, I love him, I love him, I love him.

hmmm, I sense trouble brewing.

Well, what's a girl supposed to do now that I'm allowed no where near Mr. Bean? (Sean that is, not Rowan Atkinson's character!)

I'm Back!

by RapunzelRapunzel @ 20.06.2006 - 15:06:19

Appologies, fellow bloggers, for my absense of late but following the whole Sean Bean episode I've spent a little time dining and sleeping courtesy of Her Magesty.

And I also have a restraining order not to go within 5 miles of Mr. B. sigh.8|

An unhealthy obsession has begun…

by RapunzelRapunzel @ 24.04.2006 - 10:52:11

I’ve had my fair share of crushes through the years, starting with Kevin Costner (Dances With Wolves did it for me, I’m afraid), then Keanu Reeves (Bill and Ted’s Bogus Journey has a lot to answer for), then the obligatory one’s, of course – Brad and George. But lately there hasn’t been anyone new.

This all changed last night.

Forever.

When Sharpe first came to our screens, probably about 10 years ago, I was far more interested in going out and getting wasted than watching some crappy tv show. OH! How wrong was I? I now feel cheated, I’ve missed out on years of the lovely Sharpe. Last night, as he rode into the Indian dessert on horse back in THAT uniform, I could barely contain myself! MY GOD! What a perfectly formed male. I’m afraid I have now joined the ranks and housewives favourite Sean Bean is also mine.

The problem is, I’m starting to get obsessed. And get stalkerish thoughts. This is never really a good thing, I found out recently that my lovely Sean lives nearby (well within 50 miles anyway), and plays darts or bowls or something (I wasn’t interested in exactly what) on a local pub team. So I got to thinking I could start frequenting this pub and maybe… just maybe…. Sigh….

He’ll fall in love with me and take me away from all this.

Plausible? Or should I be sectioned?

Bloody Typical

by RapunzelRapunzel @ 04.04.2006 - 15:19:56

I spent the weekend finally going down South to visit friends and lovers. Oh much fun was had, except I think I might have to sue waitrose.

Let me explain....

It was a lovely semi-sunny saturday and my friend Charlie and her incredibly placid baby (she shouldn't be allowed out with this baby actually because it will fool people into thinking all babies are good like her and so other people will want one - I think she should be imprisoned til she's 13 and has turned into a nightmare, then no one will reproduce) her baby does look an awful lot like Phil Mitchell so I suppose this makes up for her lovely nature. Anyway, we drive into Richmond (yar, darhling) and decide to park up in Waitrose for ease more than anything. We then spend a lovely four hours strolling along the river ('what's that one called again?' I ask 'That'll be the Thames, Rapunzel'), have, sorry 'do', lunch in a quaint little pub with a very sexy barman, wander back into Richmond, have a smooch around that big department store - am very good and buy nothing - literally a first for me, then decide the time has come to depart.

This is the good bit...

If you park up to three hours it's £3.50 (not too bad I hear you say)

But over 3 hours it's £20. £20!!! I couldn't believe it! It actually made me feel physically ill. Nothing I could do but pay the fine, Charlie paid half bless her, then we left and the barrrier in the car park was up so I needn't have paid a penny. Just bloody typical. NOT a happy bunny. Bastards.

Goodbye cruel world, I’ll see you in the morning.

My brother died six years ago, it was the anniversary last Monday.

I find it harder as the years go by, not easier. It’s funny because when he first died, I handled it all very well- was strong and kept my family together whilst individually they all went to pieces. But, as the years have gone by, and the friends have slowly petered off and all that is left are my memories and a few lovely photos, it gets harder and I don’t seem to have the strength I once did. Is this how it’s going to be from now on? Gradually getting worse as the years go by? Having the pain sear through my chest every time I think of him? Why can’t I be content with the memories? Think of his beautiful smile and sunny disposition with a smile on my face and warmth in my heart? After all he’s never coming back and I know this.

They say time is a healer but time isn’t curing my wounds; it’s making them bigger and more infected. I know there is no answer to my questions and that I have to get on with my life which mostly I do. I just wanted everyone who has lost someone to know they’re not alone in feeling the pain and that it’s ok to still be in pain years afterwards.

Death is a part of life and we all deal with it differently.

RIP Jack

Is it just me?

by RapunzelRapunzel @ 23.03.2006 - 23:41:57

I watched Grange Hill on Monday for the first time in about 15 years.

(This is definately the plus side to being a parent - you get to watch kids programmes guiltlessly, purely for research purposes you understand?)

Last I remember is that it used to be set at a scum school in central London where you 'just said no' and everyone beat each other up or were on drugs and all with a wonderful cockney (you gotta love that word) drawl. Not to forget that it was a training ground for future stars of Eastenders.

Yet as I gazed unbelievingly at my idiot box, everything had a sunny disposition about it AND (and this is the piece de resistance) THEY HAD LIVERPUDLIAN ACCENTS! WHAT?????!?!?! what is the world coming too? and how can these poor kids graduate to the higher stage of Albert Square? surely all their dreams will be shattered? But it wasn't just the kids, the caretakers and teachers all had a northern twang too.

sigh. Is nothing sacred? or is it just me and I dreamt the whole episode?8|

Isn't st. Paddy's Day supposed to be fun?

by RapunzelRapunzel @ 17.03.2006 - 23:26:26

Top of the evenin to ya!

Hope your all having a better day than me.

I think I might have accidentally broken up with my boyfriend. All I said was that I wasn't going to see him tomorrow if we didn't go and see a mutual frined of ours that we haven't seen in 4 years. And he treats me like a fuckin leper.

And, of course, I'm being incredibly uncool about the whole situation, texting and phoning him constantly, leaving distraught then angry then distraught again messages. I'm sure that's really helping the situation.

What am I to do? you can't fucking win with men. EVER.

My phone is now switched off and I hope to God that I manage to keep it that way....

oh yes and tomorrow's his birthday.

will power come to me!!!!
