The Song Stuck In My Head That ALSO Makes Me Smile: “LEECH” by EVE 6 (1998)

Posted by youjivinmeturkey on

“Tell Those Stories To Me…

…I’m Dying To Hear…

…The Things You’ve Done And Seen…

…Far-Fetched As They May Be…

…You Strike A Smile At Me…

…Your Stories Ring Of Purgery…

…Construed…

…With Self-Empowering Themes…“

…

“LEECH” Is A Personal Favorite Jam From The 1998 Album “EVE 6” By The Alternative-Rock Band “EVE 6” !!!

…

“…Suckin’ On My Brain…

…You’re The Teacher…

…I’m The Student…

…Turnin’ Things Around…

…Your Story’s Not Congruent…

…Tabloids…

…Decoys…

…Pitiful Excuses…

…Turnin’ Things Around…

…You’re Turnin’ Things Around…

…GO! …“

The Single Album For “LEECH” By EVE 6 !!!

… … … … … … …

… … … …

…

I’ve Known Many A Great Story-Teller In My Day.

A Great Many.

So I Can Totally Identify With This Song…

“LEECH“

by EVE 6

!!! !!! !!!

😀

One Never Knows How Much Truth Is Actually Injected Into Each Of The Stories.

For Some, It’s All Of It.

For Some, It’s The Bulk Of It.

For Others, It’s Nearly None Of It.

Regardless…

…I Still Enjoy Listening To Someone Spin A Good Yarn.

Especially When They’re Really Good At Telling Them.

In The Blogging World, I’ve Found Many Amazing Story-Tellers.

Sometimes…

…It’s Easy To Believe Them.

At At Other Times…

…I Sincerely Can’t Believe What I’m Reading.

The Question Is…

…Which Are MORE Believable?

For Me…

…It’s The Version With The Most Details.

When People Can Recount So Much Information…

…I Tend To Get More Sucked In.

And That’s A GREAT Thing, My Peeps, Fo SHO!

Some People Can’t Stand A Bundle Of Details.

They Think It Gets Boring.

But Not I.

I’m A Stickler For Details.

Details Sell A Story.

So It’s A Rather Funny Coinkydink That I’d Hear This Song First Thing This Morning.

It Made Me Smile.

It Made Me Think.

It Made Me Reflect.

I Started Thinking About My Grandfather, Actually.

That Man Had STORIES.

Nearly An Endless Supply Of STORIES STORIES STORIES.

He’d Talk About The Great Depression.

He’d Talk About Joining The Navy At 17-Years-Old During World War II.

He’d Talk About Working At The Hospital As An Operating-Room Tech.

He’d Tell Me About The Amazing Things He’d Seen And Experienced…

…Whether They Were Good Or Bad…

…And I’d Listen Intently.

My Father Is Another One.

The Man Can Turn Almost Any Life Experience Into A Nifty Story.

I Think It’s A Gift.

Some People Simply Can’t Do It.

I Suppose I Should Be Thankful To Have Been Brought-Up By People Who Always Did For Me What I Love Doing Now.

I Love Telling Stories.

Some Are Totally True.

Some Are Almost Totally True.

Some Are Carefully Constructed Inventions.

Any Way It Goes…

…I Still LOVE To Tell Them!!!

😀

So I’ve Gotta Hand It To…

EVE 6

…This Morning…

…And Their Song…

“LEECH“

!!! !!! !!!

It Totally Got My Mind Working.

It Woke Me From My Mental Slumber, And It Got Me Cranking Away.

It’s A Great Song…

…Regardless Of How It Helped Me This Morning…

…So I’m Very Pleased It Popped-Up, Fo SHO!!!

Sometimes…

…Honestly…

…That’s All It Takes.

A Good Night Of Sleep.

A Hot Cup Of Coffee.

And Some Quality Jams.

BAAM!

Back In Bidnass!!!

Wonderful, My Peeps.

Simply Wonderful.

😀

I’ve Still Got More To Do Today…

…But I Wanted To Get This One Out Of My Head Before I Started-In On Something Else.

This One Was Important For Me To Get Done.

And I’m VERY Pleased I Did Exactly That.

🙂

I Hope You’re ALL Having A Decent Morning, My Peeps.

If You Are, You’ve Gotta Build On It.

If You’re Not…

…Hmm…

…Perhaps You Just Need More Sleep?

Or A Hot Cup Of Coffee?

Or Some Quality Jams?

Or Some Combo Of Those?

Whatever Works For You.

Good Luck.

😉

I’ve Got Much More To Do Today.

I Believe NOW It’s Time To Go For A Walk.

A Nice Walk On A Nice Morning Sounds Wonderfully Ideal.

So I’m Gonna Make That Happen, Also!

And I Already Know Which Song Is Gonna Lead-Off Said Walk.

Of Course, My Peeps…

“LEECH“

…It IS!!!

😀

Two-Nights, Back-To-Back!

Posted by youjivinmeturkey on

Friday Night…

…While It Was Broken-Up…

…I Did Get Around FOUR (4) Hours Of Actual Sleep.

Friday Had Turned-Out To Be A Rather Decent Day.

I Didn’t Feel The Best…

…Not 100%…

…Not even 80%…

…But It Was A Decent Day.

Yesterday…

…However…

…Actually Turned-Out To Be An Even Better Day.

It Was My Brother’s Birthday…

…And I Spent Almost The Entire Day With Family.

Went Out-&-About With Them…

…Had A Rather Amazing Breakfast…

(that did not make me sick for the first time in ages)

…Got To See My Grandparents…

…Got To Chit-Chat With Everyone…

…Etc Etc.

Thing Is…

…I Really Wasn’t Expecting To Get The Sleep I Got.

I Was Just So Damned Tired, My Body AND My Mind Simply Gave-Out On Me.

And I Slept Like A Frickin’-Freakin’-Frackin’ LOG.

I Awoke This Morning…

…With Around FIVE (5) Hours Of Sleep Under My Belt!!!

WOOT!!!

Yeah, It Was Broken Sleep Again…

…But It Was Still SLEEP!

So I’m Not Going To Scoff At That.

Not One Bit.

Would Y’all?!?

OF COURSE NOT!!!

😀

Now…

…I’m Just Hoping The Last Two Days/Nights Haven’t Been A Fluke.

I’m In A Positive’ish Mood Right Now…

…And I’m Going To Try And Roll With It.

I Know These Things Never Last…

…So I’m Going To Try Using It To Ye Ole Advantage.

I Have A Couple Little Writing Projects I Wanted To Work On, And Me Thinks Me Shall.

😉

I Just Wanted Y’all To Know What Was Up.

Wanted Y’all To Know You Don’t Have To Worry So Much.

At Least…

…Well…

…Not Today You Don’t.

While I Know Everyone Worries About Me…

…At Some Point…

…About A Great Many Things…

…Today I’m Telling You To Take A Break.

Yes, It’s Early In The Morning.

Yes, I’ve Got The Entire Day To Get Through.

Yes, This Could All Come Crashing Down.

Yes Yes Yes.

But I’m Feeling Pretty Good Right Now.

And I’m Hoping To Make It Last As Long As I Can.

I’ve Got Some Quality Jams Playing On The MP3Player.

I’ve Got A Hot Cup Of Coffee Sitting Here.

I Just Ate A Brownie.

It’s A Good Morning, Thus Far.

One Day At A Time, Ya Know?!

SURE YOU DO!!

Alright…

…Time To Get Down To Bidnass!!!

I’ve Got Some Work To Do!!!

😀

L8r, Taters.
