"Burning Slowly" by The Crash Recovery (Lyrics and Melody by me)

You know what? When I wrote these lyrics, they were about a struggle that my husband and I wen't through. By the time I wrote this song, we were good.

But I listen to it, and I think, wow... this man... How is it that I love him so very much?

I am the chaser in this relationship, and he is the withdrawer... and this is a pattern... and knowing this, knowing the things that I know, I am beginning to think I was right all along when I used to introduce him as my soulmate. Even if my concept of soulmates differs from the traditional or widely accepted one.

Soulmates challenge each other, it's not suppose to be easy. And yet, it can be, it has been, and it is...
Anyway. This song is about commitment, and working things through. The music video has nothing to do with it but is fitting if you don't know what the message is suppose to be.

Truth be told, any time I have emotional insecurities or vulnerabilities within my relationship, I listen to this song and "Always Beside You"... Did I mention that I am a big fan of this band I am a part of even if we have been on hiatus for a long while? I always feel like I am listening to someone else, the quality and all. Plus we got to work with Grammy winning producers! Wow!!!

BFC Ink Doll Collection Complete!!

Well, if it isn't obvious, I got into doll collection, but I suppose I always was a doll collector, just not really by choice as my mom would buy me a porcelain doll every year for my birthday until I moved away for college, but even then I still got porcelain dolls as gifts from her and other members of my family. Over the years of course I have collected dolls from the 80's like the Kimberly doll by Tommy, and of course Barbie... then I got into repainting Bratz dolls the past couple of years and added Monster High to the list of dolls to look for at flea markets etc... But one day, by chance I came across the now out of production MGA Entertainment 18" BFC Ink (Best Friends Club Ink) dolls. These dolls are way cuter, in my opinion, than American Girl Dolls (which I really do not like at all actually) or Journey Girls etc... They have a hard body all the way and were made in two types. The first productions were just all vinyl bodies, much like the Wellie W...

Revisiting the name "Syren"

From time to time I contemplate this name. It is a name I particularly love to see in written form and I actually love the sound of it when spoken. But what does it mean? It is a made up word or name that simply appeals to me. Syren makes me think of serene... It makes me think of the sea. Some people pronounce it see ren... others sigh ren... It was half chosen and half given. I've said this many times before. (recap) When I'd audition for singing roles, the panel would always do a double take, and onlookers would be in awe of my singing... Mainly because they didn't know what to expect until they heard it. Because of this the name was given to me. But the name Syren is derived of: siren- –noun 1. Classical Mythology . one of several sea nymphs, part woman and part bird, who lure mariners to destruction by their seductive singing. 2. a seductively beautiful or charming woman, especially one who...
