Hi San Diego!!
Why, hello there San Diego, California! You were FANTASTIC!
I spent two awesome days in San Diego with my brother, auntie and uncle and a quick visit to my darling friend Heather (from Savannah!). We were all enamored with this town. One of those places where you feel a certain vibe. I think I will research the job market over there. Oh yes.
And of course, I paid my visits to my Ocean, whom I hadn't felt in six months. How I love you.
Now that I am back in this wretched desert, I have to get back to my usual life of waiting tables, editing pictures, creating pretty things, planning Plan Bs to sail out of Vegas and draining him out my system forever.
In the meantime, because this is one of those nights, I want to share with y'all one of my favorite songs of all time, Toda La Vida, by the Mexican singer (and my Mom's eternal crush) Emmanuel. The video is totally 80s but the lyrics are the playbill for the endless theatrical production of love and life.
Toda la vida coleccionado mil amores
haciendo juegos malabares
Para no amarte en exclusiva.
Toda la vida poniendo trampas al orgullo
tantas historias como estrellas
para no ser esclavo tuyo
Para obtener mi propia musica.
Toda la vida descubriendo puertas a escondidas
para escapar de tus heridas
para buscar la aventuras que me liberen de tus besos
Solo por eso, solo por eso.
Toda la vida para olvidate
para perderte y recuprate
y no dormirme en tus sentidos
como un idiota enamorado desmadejado
Aburrido que se conforma.
Toda la vida marcando numeros secretos
mandando cartas a escondidas
haciendo citas indiscretas
Como un romantico suicida, un suicida.
Toda la vida sabiendo siempre que me esperas
siempre segura de ti misma
siempre mujer siempre perfecta
y yo buscando mi otra musica, mi propia musica,
en mi musica.
Toda la vida pensando siempre en tu egoismo
y por no ser esclavo tuyo
Soy el esclavo de mi mismo.
Toda la vida tirando amor por todos lados
dejando beso enganchados
en cada nueva despedida
Y tu al final la mas querida.
Because the night must go on... a little bit of the musical and emotional genius that is Todd Rundgren. Love him. Love him. This song is just...
