(MM) Part of Me

This week's song:

Part of Me

by Katy Perry

First off, I have to say that (IMO) this is the worst music video ever. She sees him talking to another girl and all of the sudden joins the marines? I feel like it doesn't fit with the song and the whole thing is one big advertisement for the Marines. (I'm not saying I don't support our soldiers, just that I hate this video.) Then there is the random drowning of a guy in the swimming pool, and dancing under a giant flag... DUMB.

However I do like the song.

Though I may like this cover better:

Part of Me

Cover by Tyler Ward

(You can purchase his version as well)

Days like this I want to drive away

Pack my bags and watch your shadow fade

You chewed me up and spit me out like I was poison in your mouth

You took my light, you drained me down

But that was then and this is now

Now look at me...

[Chorus]

This is the part of me that you're never gonna ever take away from me

Throw your sticks and stones, your bombs and blows

But you're not going to break my soul

This is the part of me that you're never gonna ever take away from me

I just wanna throw my phone away
Find out who is really there for me
You ripped me off, your love was cheap

Was always tearing at the seems
I fell deep, you let me down
But that was then and this is now
Now look at me

[Chorus]

Now look at me I'm sparkling
A firework a burning flame
You will never put me out again Oh No

[Chorus]

Good Friends & Avoiding Exes

I confess that taking a Thursday off for my free day at work was just the thing that I needed. I spent Wednesday night at Kristina & Ken's house, and then most of the day Thursday with Kristina and the kiddos. We got up and made waffles together, dropped kids off at school, and went shopping. It was a lot of fun!

I confess that having dinner with Kristi, the kids, Josh, and Max last night, and then going home to play games with all of the above plus Courtney, Taylor, Ortie, and John, was so much fun.

I confess that I played a card game called Kittens in a Blender and loved it. It was fun!

I confess that before I drove up to Kristina's Wednesday night-my ex (the one I am no longer friends with due to issues in December) was hanging out there. Kristi looked at him and told him he needed to go home because I was coming over, and responded with "I can be civil if she can." She just said "No, she doesn't have to be GO HOME!"

I confess that I could probably be civil if I had to, as civility is not the issue here; thing is-I don't have to. He doesn't deserve to have me around, and he certainly needs to learn that if he's going to play this game where he just drops friends, then he gets to also not be around those people-even if that means he has no other friends. He made his bed and he can lie in it.

I confess that I know what he'd do. He wouldn't just be civil; he would play nice and try to do what he always does where he weasels his way back in and never admits he was wrong but somehow is a friend again. NO. I refuse. I do not need people like that in my life.

I confess that it was HILARIOUS when we went to the store to get food and he was there. His brother came up and started talking to us, and asked me why I hadn't been around lately. I told him "I just don't come up much. That and I'm not talking to your brother." He looked at me and said "I know, he's hiding over there!" Hahahaha. Kristina and I laughed so loud and spent the rest of the evening giggling over the whole experience. Then his brother hit on me... *Shudder*

I still laugh about it when I think about it. Loser.

What do you have to confess?

Walking Dead Funnies

In honor of the season finale of The Walking Dead, I thought I'd share some funnies. If you watch the show, you'll probably get a kick out of them. Some have some adult language, so if that bothers you, don't continue reading.
