Not a real entry - wrote one on paper the other day in lieu of access to a pc - but that I don't have with me to retype. Been offline for a couple days now, so there's far too much to catch up on...in the meantime, here's some words from a new song that I really like. It's by the band, Five for Fighting. (the name, by the way, is a hockey reference...if you get into a fight and get a fighting major penality, it's "five for fighting"..too cool...love anything relating to hockey!)

Superman
I can’t stand to fly
I’m not that naive
I’m just out to find
The better part of me

I’m more than a bird…I’m more than a plane
More than some pretty face beside a train
It’s not easy to be me

Wish that I could cry
Fall upon my knees
Find a way to lie
About a home I’ll never see

It may sound absurd…but don’t be naive
Even Heroes have the right to bleed
I may be disturbed…but won’t you conceed
Even Heroes have the right to dream
It’s not easy to be me

Up, up and away…away from me
It’s all right…You can all sleep sound tonight
I’m not crazy…or anything…

I can’t stand to fly
I’m not that naive
Men weren’t meant to ride
With clouds between their knees

I’m only a man in a silly red sheet
Digging for kryptonite on this one way street
Only a man in a funny red sheet
Looking for special things inside of me

It’s not easy to be me.
