Brand New Day Lyrics
This appeared as a moral dilemma ’cause at first
It was weird how I swore to eliminate the worst
Of the plague that devoured humanity it’s true
I was vague on the how so how can it be that you
Have shown me the light
It’s a brand new day and the sun is high
All the birds are singing that you’re gonna die
How I hesitated now I wonder why
It’s a brand new day
All the times that you beat me unconscious I’ll forgive
All the crimes incomplete listen honestly I’ll live
Mr. Cool Mr. Right Mr. Know-It-All is through
Now my future’s so bright and I owe it all to you
Who showed me the light
It’s a brand new me I’ve got no remorse
Now the water’s rising but I know the course
I’m gonna shock the world gonna show Bad Horse
It’s a brand new day
And Penny will see the evil in me
Not a joke not a dork not a failure
And she may cry but her tears will dry
When I hand her the keys to a shiny new Australia
It’s a brand new day yeah the sun is high
All the angels sing because you’re gonna die
Go ahead and laugh yeah I’m a funny guy
Tell everyone goodbye
It’s a brand new day

The farmer’s maket decended on the park blocks. I got such pretty raspberries.

The crowd was transfixed by this man’s dancing and acrobats.

I spent my lunch yesterday looking for a new mug. I broke my super cute japanese kitty mug last week. I don’t like paper cups for so many reasons. I found this beaity at the Real Mother Goose. I tried to find something that wasn’t so over the top. This was the hands down winner.
I can’t tell you why but I really enjoy having a great cup for my double espresso and love cup complements. This one was so popular with the baristas that it almost stopped production. There were threats that I wouldn’t get it back.

I also like the bus. I like walking to the bus stop, waiting for the bus, and the bus ride.

Today begins 5 weeks of PeopleSoft training. I’ve been very unhappy about it. Had to cancel a trip to New Orleans. I’ve been anticipating my commute increasing by 2 - 3 hours. But the worst part is I have difficulty picturing myself doing this type of development. It is very strange taking this class in the building I used to work at.
I have to say, I really like being downtown. Spend lunch in the Park blocks. My old Coffee People is now a very fancy Celtic Import Shop.

I took a few vacation days this week to attend a Level 1 Certification class in Art Clay. I have a glass kiln and was looking for things I can do with it. Art clay is made up of very fine silver particles (1-20 micron), organic binders, and water. It feels like clay. Once completely dried and fired, the remaining piece is 99.9% pure silver. More pictures soon.
