Cannot Wait.

I'm getting this tattoo, with a cross above it, on my neck in seventeen months.

All This And Heaven Too.

And the heart is hard to translate,
It has a language of it's own,
It talks and tongues and quiet sighs and prayers and proclamations,
In the grand days of great men and the smallest of gestures,
In short shallow gasps.

But with all my education,
I can't seem to commend it,
And the words are all escaping me,
And coming back all damaged,
And I would put them back in poetry,
If I only knew how,
I can't seem to understand it,

And I would give all this and heaven too,
I would give it all if only for a moment,
That I could just understand the meaning of the word you see,
'Cause I've been scrawling it forever,
But it never makes sense to me at all.

And it talks to me in tiptoes,
And sings to me inside,
It cries out in the darkest night,
And breaks in morning light.
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/f/florence_and_the_machine/all_this_and_heaven_too.html ]
But with all my education,
I can't seem to commend it,
And the words are all escaping,
And coming back all damaged,
And I would put them back in poetry,
If I only knew how,
I can't seem to understand it,

And I would give all this and heaven too,
I would give it all if only for a moment,
That I could just understand the meaning of the word you see,
'Cause I've been scrawling it forever,
But it never makes sense to me at all.

And I would give all this and heaven too,
I would give it all if only for a moment,
That I could just understand the meaning of the word you see,
'Cause I've been scrawling it forever,
But it never makes sense to me at all.

No, words are a language,
It doesn't deserve such treatment,
And all my stumbling phrases,
Never amounted to anything worth this feeling,
All this heaven,
Never could describe such a feeling as I'm having,
Words were never so useful,
So I was screaming out a language that I never knew existed before.

Cheers To You.

I don't often blog about random friends, but yes, cheers to you Katelyn. Probably one of my most loyal blog-watchers, your interest in Jack's House makes me feel like I'm doing something worthwhile; so since you're a regular here- here's a post dedicated to you.
And aside from your faithful following, you're also one of the most genuine and beautiful people I've ever met.
What is most lovable about you is your personality- the aura you have with you everywhere. Your undisputed, down-to-earth ways are inspiring and infectious. You make me want to be more like you.

Seeing you quiet or sad is like seeing the sky turn green- rare if not impossible, unusual and somewhat worrying. Your spritely ways lift spirits and bring smiles, yet none like yours.

So now I hope you know I think you're a beautiful and valuable person, and your loyalty to Jack's House is so very much appreciated.

Perhaps I wont even tell you I've blogged about you. I know you'll stop by and see it soon..

Fashion Blog-"The Wardrobe."

So bloggers, I've just made an additonal blog dedicated to all things fashion related, since so many people have been asking whether or not I'll soon be making a fashion blog. Funny thing is, since I'm so far from tech-savvy, I couldn't quite figure out how to add an additional page to Jack's House.. so I made a whole new entire blog.

And so, my pretties, it's now up and running. It's called the Wardrobe, and it's official as of today. Keep watching, and enjoy.

Video Games

Swinging in the backyard
Pull up in your fast car
Whistling my name

Open up a beer
And you say get over here
And play a video game

I'm in his favorite sun dress
Watching me get undressed
Take that body downtown

I say you the bestest
Lean in for a big kiss
Put his favorite perfume on

Go play a video game

It's you, it's you, it's all for you
Everything I do
I tell you all the time
Heaven is a place on earth with you
Tell me all the things you want to do
I heard that you like the bad girls
Honey, is that true?
It's better than I ever even knew
They say that the world was built for two
Only worth living if somebody is loving you
Baby now you do.

Singing in the old bars
Swinging with the old stars
Living for the fame

Kissing in the blue dark
Playing pool and wild darts
Video games

He holds me in his big arms
Drunk and I am seeing stars
This is all I think of

Watching all our friends fall
In and out of Old Paul's
This is my idea of fun
Playing video games

It's you, it's you, it's all for you
Everything I do
I tell you all the time
Heaven is a place on earth with you
Tell me all the things you want to do
I heard that you like the bad girls
Honey, is that true?
It's better than I ever even knew
They say that the world was built for two
Only worth living if somebody is loving you
Baby now you do.


It's you, it's you, it's all for you
Everything I do
I tell you all the time
Heaven is a place on earth with you
Tell me all the things you want to do
I heard that you like the bad girls
Honey, is that true?
It's better than I ever even knew
They say that the world was built for two
Only worth living if somebody is loving you
Baby now you do.
