Thanks to the decorator of this beheaded parking meter with dried flowers... urban flower arranging bringing some beauty to all of us! An excellent day of work followed by a fun trip down memory lane with an old friend. #htymp

DEATH CAB FOR CUTIE - "Death of an Interior Decorator"

You were the mother of three girls so sweet
Who stormed through your turnstile
And climbed to the street
But after conception your body lay cold
And withered through autumn and you found yourself old

Can you tell me why you have been so sad?
He took a lover on a faraway beach
While you arrange flowers and chose color schemes

Can you tell me why you have been so sad?
Can you tell me why you have been so sad?

The girls were all there
They traded their vows
The youngest one glared with furrowed brows
They tenderly kissed then cut the cake
The bride then tripped and broke the vase
The one you thought would spend the years
So perfectly placed below the mirror
Arriving late, you clean the debris
And walked into the angry sea

It felt just like falling in love again [x2]

Can you tell me why you have been so sad?
Can you tell me why you have been so...

This is a Grand Old Oak that had stood proudly for a very long time in Seminole Heights. On Saturday a massive branch gave way - apparently it is mostly holllow inside and they may have to take the whole tree down. It will be a real loss of a neighborhood landmark. Here's a picture of it this spring in full bloom: www.flickr.com/photos/elawgrrl/6856655442/in/set-72157628...

DEFIANCE, OHIO - "Old Dead Tree"

it's in the east and in on the kill taker. this is so much more than just one's needs. this lies with you in a california highway somewhere. a manmade strip between the trees. i found a new value in slayer last night. nighttime fits for changing hands.

it will chop you down, like an old dead tree. this dirty old town, i try not to believe. that it would chop me down, like an old dead tree. this dirty old town, i try so hard not to leave.

i wrote again. it sounded a lot like last time. nothing stems from nothing left. we leave in the morning. it's tough to know not much has changed, and that we won't be coming back.

Memorial Day - we took a few moments to say thank you to all have served.

DROPKICK MURPHYS - "Memorial Day"

You’ve gotta pick yourself up by the bootstraps
No one’s gonna help you out when you fall
You’ve gotta find a way out of your problems
When you’re broke and you’re backed up against the wall
If you sleep on your only chances
They’ll never come around again
So dig deep and swing for the fences
You never know it might work out in the end

Come join the fight
So we can change the way we’re living
What’s left inside?
If you believe
Believe you’ll never give in
Come join the fight
Turn away and you’ll be sure to lose it
Hold onto those dreams
They’re the one thing they can’t take away now

I was young and I wouldn’t hear it
You had opinions I had mine too
Just a kid with all the answers
A pompous pride and not one clue
It’s getting late now shadow’s falling
As the sun sets on my time
There’s always something there to remind me
I try to keep up and still fall behind

Come join the fight
So we can change the way we’re living
What’s left inside?
If you believe
Believe you’ll never give in
Come join the fight
Turn away and you’ll be sure to lose it
Hold onto those dreams
They’re the one thing they can’t take away now

What’s left inside?
If you believe
Believe you’ll never give in

I was young and I wouldn’t hear it
You had opinions I had mine too
Just a kid with all the answers
A pompous pride and not one clue

Come join the fight
So we can change the way we’re living
What’s left inside?
If you believe
Believe you’ll never give in
Come join the fight
Turn away and you’ll be sure to lose it
Hold onto those dreams
They’re the one thing they can’t take away now

Come join the fight

FUGAZI - "Break"

Can't ask for more so why unfulfilled

Had it right here but now it's gone
On and on
