amor a primera vista... ;)

that's it...it is official i have fallen and i have fallen hard...i fell in love this past weekend. and its for real---well as real as it can be. this past weekend i was in the big easy yes good old naw'orlins and i must say it was love at first sight.

i fell in love with the charm, their southern homes, the food---dear gosh all mighty the food---delicious. best. thing. ever. in. life. the people and last but not least the one thing that used to make me love nyc...there is no hustle and bustle and that makes me love it 1000 times more.



i know i have been saying and i have been thinking that maybe spain was in my cards...but maybe i need to get out of this big city world and move somewhere with a little more piece and quiet. either way you can add naw'orlins to the list of maybe's ...now its time to figure the rest out. feel free to enjoy my pictures from this amazing little city.







oh right the reason we went to this amazing city...to run a half and we did...here is the proof ;)

kissing you....

silent tuesday has been replaced today by lyric tuesday...today's song...kissing you by total.



Kissin' you is all that I been thinking of
Kissin' you is good

Don't matter who knows
I don't care who sees me
And thinking about you makes my life complete
And what I mean by that
That my whole world changes
You make me feel things that I never felt
I wanna kiss you

Repeat 1
Oh yeah, I wanna kiss you
Repeat 1

When I'm with my friends
I'm trying to figure out a way
To leave 'em behind just to get back to you
Oh, you're my best kept secret
And that's the way I like it
You're my pride and joy boy
That's why I'm dreaming of you
I wanna kiss you



Repeat 1
Kissing you's so good
Repeat 1

2 - You're my pride and joy
You're my baby boy
People ask me how I feel about you


They ask me if I love you (yeah)
Am I crazy for you (yeah yeah yeah)

Repeat 1
Oh yeah, I wanna kiss you
Repeat 1

Repeat 2

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah



Kissing you is so good
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Oh yeah, I wanna kiss you
Repeat 1

I been thinking 'bout you, dreaming 'bout you, thinking about, you yeah, y eah
