   Not quite as bored as last night....

Okay... for Caprice and SunfallE, here's the entire song that I was humming yesterday!

The Masochism Tango by Tom Lehrer

I ache for the touch of your lips, dear,
But much more for the touch of your whips, dear.
You can raise welts
Like nobody else,
As we dance to the Masochism Tango.

Let our love be a flame, not an ember,
Say it's me that you want to dismember.
Blacken my eye,
Set fire to my tie,
As we dance to the Masochism Tango.

At your command
Before you here I stand,
My heart is in my hand...
Yeech!
It's here that I must be.

My heart entreats,
Just hear those savage beats,
And go put on your cleats
And come and trample me.

Your heart is hard as stone or mahogany,
That's why I'm in such exquisite agony.
My soul is on fire,
It's aflame with desire,
Which is why I perspire when we tango.

You caught my nose
In your left castanet, love,
I can feel the pain yet, love,
Ev'ry time I hear drums.

And I envy the rose
That you held in your teeth, love,
With the thorns underneath, love,
Sticking into your gums.

Your eyes cast a spell that bewitches.
The last time I needed twenty stitches
To sew up the gash
That you made with your lash,
As we danced to the Masochism Tango.

Bash in my brain,
And make me scream with pain,
Then kick me once again,
And say we'll never part.

I know too well
I'm underneath your spell,
So, darling, if you smell
Something burning, it's my heart... [hiccup]
'Scuse me!

Take your cigarette from its holder,
And burn your initials in my shoulder.
Fracture my spine,
And swear that you're mine,
As we dance to the Masochism Tango.

Well, here it is, 7:32 pm on a Monday evening. Nothing exciting happening around here. There's three railroaders sitting here in the lobby, bullshitting. I've been mucking about with stuff. I added a counter to my intro section. It's very cute.

We had maybe a little over an inch of snow in an hour at home today. Mom got a little freaky on me and insisted that my brother and I go in to work together. So... we got here around 2:00 pm. I didn't need to be here until 4:00 and he doesn't have to be here until 11:00.... It didn't snow at all over here in Sioux City!!!! *sigh* At least I get to watch Cartoon Network after work tonight.

I'm having problems with the wireless connection again. *grrrrrrrr* It just cut out on me, so I have to copy all this post into Notepad and save it and restart the computer. Last night I stayed online with no problem while I was out on runs. I haven't had one run tonight and it just won't stay connected. Makes sense somewhere. I think after I get this posted, I'm just going to go offline and find something that doesn't involve the internet.

Well, I restarted the laptop in the hope that I'd be able to get back on the wireless. It didn't work. Thank heaven for flash drives!

Laters!
