Singing about a Talent of Past Relationships

March 29, 2014

Welcome to My Reality

What song did you find yourself humming or singing when nobody was listening?

Day before yesterday, I was singing the song "A Thousand Years" by Christina Perri. This song was on the next to the last Twilight movie. Here are the lyrics.

"A Thousand Years"

Heart beats fast
Colors and promises
How to be brave?
How can I love when I'm afraid to fall?
But watching you stand alone,
All of my doubt suddenly goes away somehow.

One step closer

[Chorus:]
I have died everyday waiting for you
Darling, don't be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more

Time stands still
Beauty in all she is
I will be brave
I will not let anything take away
What's standing in front of me
Every breath
Every hour has come to this

One step closer

[Chorus:]
I have died everyday waiting for you
Darling, don't be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more

And all along I believed I would find you
Time has brought your heart to me
I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more

One step closer
One step closer

[Chorus:]
I have died everyday waiting for you
Darling don't be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more

And all along I believed I would find you
Time has brought your heart to me
I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more


I always think of my soulmate when I hear this song. It sums up the way I feel about him.

Tell us about a talent you'd love to have but don't.

There are two talents that I wish I had that go together. I wish I could sew and draw because I would love to be a plus size fashion designer. Most plus size designers don't have a clue about how plus size clothes should look like. They tend to make sloppy shapeless clothes that do nothing to flatter a woman. The clothes also tend to look matronly too. I'm only 37, and I certainly don't want to look 87. I was in a store about a week or two ago and notice that many of the plus size dresses looked like something Mrs. Roper from Three's Company would wear.

Have you told your partner about all of your past relationships? If you are not in a relationship, do you think someone should or should not reveal all past relationships?

This prompt is pretty simple for me because I don't have any past relationships. My soulmate is the only one I've ever had a relationship with. I'm glad too! However, if I would have had any past relationships, I would have told my soulmate because I think that there shouldn't be any secrets between us.

News In My World!

I received another rejection from a query today. That's 8 in all, but I'm not worried because I've sent off a little over 80 queries since 3/21/14 and have more that I will send later on. I just hope that I don't have to go to the self publishing option, but I know this may happen because my novel is a blend of three genres, one of them being western. The western genre is often a hard sale and the fact that you often don't see it paired with faerie folklore and horror.

I've got to go figure out what I'm going to have for lunch since Mom and my brother didn't want fried chicken, mashed potatoes, and brown sugar glazed carrots.

Bye for now!
