I was playing around with different ideas and thoughts and this piece showed up on my screen. Let me know what you think.
Don't need my eyes Aug 31, 2008
I don't need eyes to see you For your not your appearance I can see in all you do Sight is just interference
I can see straight into your soul know you better every day I can see your self-control and see your moral decay
I hear your words when you act when your true self comes through eyes could never see exact can never see the real you
I can feel your heart beat when you hold me close whether obscene or discreet that's when I know you most
so I can close my eyes listen, feel, breathe you in know all that underlies and all that dwells within
For sight can twist reality show me what I want to see but it is your sexuality sensuality spirituality abnormality duality irrationality morality practicality That speak to me
When i close my eyes and finally see you

Alright, i'm off to go watch a movie or something, Night all :) Em
The Birthday blog!
Current mood: cheerful
Category: Life
SO Thursday night, my body turns 27, because I was born in England and the time zone change made 10:20 pm my birthtime. SO celbrations begin with me bouncing and giggling.
Friday morning, Get cards and presents from my kids. A new Computer chair, a Laptop table for my writing, and some really cute shirts.
Friday at work I make $29 in tips, not counting change. A really great customer, named Kevin whose a sweety and very awesome, gave me a nice card with a gift to Texas RoadHouse!! I get off work and head home, my dad is back from TDY and my kids bombard me with hugs. My hubby calls and I get to open my package from UPS and I get TWO twelve packs of SKI!!! YAY I havent drank it since 2000 So I was MORE then happy to crack open a case, grab the first ski and drink and pose for a picture :) I say goodbye to the kids and my rents and talk to rob while I drive to frys and buy alcohol to drink with my movie. I get home and start drinking while I dance around to music, then start the movie. Tiff calls and we chat for like two hours and laugh. Then I finish the movie with an impromtu Photo session recording the last hours of my first day as 27 hahaha
Saturday Morning, i get up and go to work in comfy clothes. More regulars come in and wish me a belated birthday and Tiff gets back and I get more presents!! I really cute fairy ornament and Some kick ass shirts!! I go to her house and they all signed a card that sings for me. We end up driving to her brothers house, and then back to hers then to mine, where we hang out for a bit. Then head to Denny's at like 1 am, and order food and hang out laughing at the table next to us. We head home, and watch Flight of the conchords season one and fall asleep around 4am.
7am Sunday morning, I'm awake and get coffee started. We watch The Orphange which I thought was a really good movie. I'm just happy I can read fast of the subtitles would have killed me hahaha. Tiff heads home after my kids and rents get back. Mum and dad leave to fix up a rental house and the kids and I watch total drama Island while eating a homemade coldstone style icecream lunch. Then when my rents get back we go to roadhouse and get dinner. And even though It's PAST my birthday they put me in the saddle anyway. But i took my little girl up with me since friday is her birthday.
Then today I get an Aweosme necklace from Des and a bracelet I've had my eye on. I sign on here and I have over 27 birthday well wishes! SO awesome, I really didnt expect that guys, thanks so much. I got all teary eyed :)
I finished registering and made my donation page for my AIDS walk!!!! My first EVER time walking, so I hope you find it in your heart to maybe sponser me :) If you do, just visit my Firstgiving page and you'll see the sponder me button :) If not, Ever think of joining YOUR local walk?

Why I sometimes hate arizona
Current mood: frustrated
Category: Pets and Animals
A repost from my other blog:
Cause somedays when your trying to relax things like this crawl on your window
Then on July 13th, your 7th wedding anniversary when it should be all pretty and lovey, you go to get changed and a wolf spider runs at your feet in your own house...
So you catch it and then feel to bad to kill it so it's in a orange cup until someone with the balls to let it go comes over.
Then monday you almost cut the tip of your finger off at work, but that could happen anywhere, so I guess thats not an arizona reason, but an Emma Week reason...... but i digest...
SO monday night you go to walmart and decide to go on the road behind your house and when you stop at the sign you notice a piece of the road is moving. You look closer and see a ugly tarantula just mosing across from a field towards your back yard!!
That pic is on my camera and I have a cheap one so you dont get to see it, but WHY was it going to MY yard...
Then the next morning you go out to see why your dog isnt drinking her water and find out a poor field mouse couldnt get out of the bowl
That really was sad and I felt really bad for the poor thing. BUT I have to throw it away, SO I go to the back door and see this
Yes my floor is dirty but its a patio converted and the dog stays in there during the day, its gonna get dirty, but WHY is that thing waiting for e outside!!!!
THEN you go to work throughly freaked out after screaming into the phone and therefore your moms ear. You have an ok day and come home to this
WHY was it still waiting for me!!!!
I pray its not the same one that was walking across the street last night cause if it was, then its really out to get me hahaha EEEEEEWWWWWW!!!
I mean the way spiders work is really cool and they are neat creatures, but why are they invading my house???
is there anywhere besides antartica thats spider free?

Category: Music
I just got a bunch of songs from the ninties together in one playlist, and I'm bored, so I'm going to write a line from each song as it comes on. hahaha
Can you recognize these songs without looking up the lyrics?
If you could only see the way she loves me. Now I'm guilt stricken sobbing with my head on the floor Oh wee Oooo I look just like Buddy Holly I'm the kind of guy who laughs at a funeral SABOTAGE! I'm a loser baby, So why dont you kill me.... That girl is Poison..... If I were you I'd take precaution No one likes you when your 23 Always, I know, You'll be at my show He's going the distance, he's going for speed Ya gotta rub me the right way honey Pissing the night away, Pissing the night away! Yeah......Yeah Woooah Heaven let your light Shine down It's like this and like that and like this and uh Right about now, the funk soul brother check it out now.... Hey boy take a look at me, let me dirty up your mind I'm only happy when it's complicated If flesh could crawl my skin would fall from off my bones and run away from here Your pretend your high, you pretend your bored Come on push you can do, come on prove it nothing to it You could hide beside me, maybe for awhile You look at me, you got nothing left to say Waaaaaoh waaaaoh waaaaaaoh Pack it up pack it in Just a stranger on the bus, trying to make his way home Just like a dragon fly, I'd fly above the trees I turn the radio on I turn the radio up, and this woman was singing my song Now security they did not see him, they just hovered around his tomb And then there she was, Like double cherry pie. Capitalism has made it this way I thought I told you that we won't stop? Now STOP... Hammer time I'm a bitch I'm a lover, I'm a child I'm a mother, I'm a sinner I'm a saint.... I love this song so much hahaha You dont seem to know, seem to care, what your heart is for Here we are now, Entertain US!!! I'm sure you've heard it all before, but you never really had a doubt Where were you while we were getting high? Someday you will find me.... Destination unkown as we pull in for some gas I can do it to you gently I can do it with an animals grace Now is there any...body out there? Now watch yourself He needs some petting and a loving on his head.... They were put there by a man, in a factory downtown take me to the place I love, take me all the way She'll make you take your clothes off and go dancing in the rain So sexy it hurts, I'm to sexy for Milan Dancing naked on my street in my neighborhood And stares hopefull out the window at the workers fighting through the pouring rain Used to be that I could drive up to barstow for the night Theres no one else on earth that can do the things that I can do for you This aint no disco, It's aint no country club either Whats up St louis whats up? Whats up st. charles whats up? So Kiss me. So dont delay act now, supplies are running out Wont you come and wash away the rain And if you... want to call me baby Half the man I used to be...Well I'm half the man I used to be Goodbye goodbye Goodbye!!! Dododo do dododo doododo Make up your mind, Make your mind, and I'll promise you I shoulda learned to rope and ride, wearing a six shooter I wanna ride it all night long..... If you going my way
I've got a LOT more music, but I doubt you wanna read more lyrics for absolutely no reason. :)
SO do we have similar taste in music? or did you have NO idea what songs these were?
God will strike me down?
Current mood: thoughtful
Category: Writing and Poetry
I wrote this awhile ago, and it had been up on the McGill Forums. It's one of my, hmmmm make you think poems.
I'm ready and willing for all kinds of critical comments. from structure to content, from aggreement to anger. I dont care. I wrote this poem to ask questions and start a thought process in my readers. SO let me know what YOU think.
God will strike me down.
I have been Baptised, but I no longer practice I have been to Mass, but I no longer fellowship
Will God still strike me down?
I have prayed steadfast but now I hold no ceremony I believe on high but I do not wear symbols
Will God still strike me down?
I have raised my voice I have sung his praises I have spread his word but I no longer force on others
Will God still strike me down?
A god fearing man says, Pray, fellowship, fear But today I said believe, trust, love
Will God still strike me down?
If I believe, If I love but i do not go to Mass If I have faith in He above but do not always testify
Will God still strike me down?
I cannot believe a building a place of wood and brick a piece of jewelry, or an idol can be what he intended
A tear forms against my lid so warm it swells full falls as my heartstrings pull I knew it you didn't need to admit but hearing was more then gold earrings
recognition no better gift is commissioned your confession totally heartfelt expression For you to thank me for doing my motherly rank This Mothers Day Is Wonderful, though your away
Emma Southee 05/09/2008
story behind this poem? My hubby just sent me an email. He couldn't get any e-card sites on the military inet, and he couldnt get ahold of flower shops or anything to give me a special mothers day. SO instead he just sent me an email thanking me for being a good mom. It was really sweet and made be grateful for him, as well as our children. I wrote this poem thinking about it.
{even if it was an excuse hahaha It was still very sweet}

I know something you dont know... but you probably know way more then I dont....
Or something to that extent... But anyway point is Iit was kinda true. But more in the... I have a secret and I really wanna tell but I cant cause I made a solemn vow - type of thing.
And I kept that vow. Even when others would post topics that would give me plenty of casual discussion about the secret. Even though there were plenty of times that I could have let it slip about itchy arms or something. And even though people at work had seen and therefore knew this information, it was ok to me, because I - me myself and I - did not ’leak’ the secret.
BUT
Rob saw. So my vow to let him be the first to see it other then those at my work, was kept. So here :)
