please find the lyrics to 'the night they drove old dixie down' below, this song makes me feel too much, i just drove to work with it on repeat, and i feel like the lyrics are so powerful that you need to take a solid look!

Virgil Caine is the name and I served on the Danville train
'Til Stoneman's cavalry came and tore up the tracks again
In the winter of '65, we were hungry, just barely alive
By May the tenth, Richmond had fell
It's a time I remember, oh so well

The night they drove old Dixie down
And the bells were ringing
The night they drove old Dixie down
And the people were singing
They went, "La, la, la"

Back with my wife in Tennessee, when one day she called to me
"Virgil, quick, come see, there go the Robert E.Lee"
Now I don't mind choppin' wood, and I don't care if the money's no good
Ya take what ya need and ya leave the rest
But they should never have taken the very best

Like my father before me, I will work the land
And like my brother above me, who took a rebel stand
He was just eighteen, proud and brave, but a Yankee laid him in his grave
I swear by the mud below my feet
You can't raise a Caine back up when he's in defeat

kupono.



not cool. i was sad to see him go last night. he is a stunning dancer, especially in the mia michaels choreographed dance he did with kayla last week. this is the only show i watch, and i literally don't breath for some of these routines.

cowboys.



my sister just reminded me of something i used to do frequently when i was little. i would take my pajama bottoms off and run around the basement pretending my pajama bottoms were a lasso, and i would lasso pretty much everything. i forgot about how much i loved pretending i was a cowboy.

grand jete about it.





hello. i have decided to take ballet again, pick up my new kicks this weekend. i am stoked, and seriously hoping SOMEBODY helps me install a ballet barre in my home. i am very excited about this, it has been too long.

in other areas of nostalgia- my friend jenny and i have been you tubing sweet valley high episodes since last night- lame i know, and in german subtitles but how hard did you love that show? jessica wakefield being a borderline harlett while elizabeth always donned a rose colored cardigan. geeesh, how could you not love it?

also!!! wedding tonight, stoked stoked stoked.

foxy.

amy and stu are getting married, sigh, perfect couple, and the loveliest people really. congrats you two crazy kids, we love ya!!




3rd annual. pretty rad. thanks bug for putting this together for my po. if anyone had seen the first one (which wouldn't upload for some reason) it was essentially a word document with a cartoon lassoing.



here is foxy (the big one on the left). and foxy's spawn (shocked mini dude on the right). foxy does not look like this anymore, he has taken on the role of being layla's bestie since christmas, and if there was a thing as too much love, this dude has seen it. now- the problem is that foxy is sick, and i don't want to break layla's heart so i am going to try to replace him. if anyone is in the ikea area anytime soon let me know.
