I've got to get my caffeine fix for the morning, then I will start smiling. Busy day here - I have to get ready for the big baseball game in DC (and if you believe that one....)

This is one of my faves...

Who can take a sunrise, sprinkle it with dew
Cover it with choc'late and a miracle or two
The Candy Man, oh the Candy Man can
The Candy Man can 'cause he mixes it with love and makes the world taste good

Who can take a rainbow, wrap it in a sigh
Soak it in the sun and make a groovy lemon pie
The Candy Man, the Candy Man can
The Candy Man can 'cause he mixes it with love and makes the world taste good

The Candy Man makes everything he bakes satisfying and delicious
Now you talk about your childhood wishes, you can even eat the dishes

Oh, who can take tomorrow, dip it in a dream
Separate the sorrow and collect up all the cream
The Candy Man, oh the Candy Man can
The Candy Man can 'cause he mixes it with love and makes the world taste good

The Candy Man makes everything he bakes satisfying and delicious
Talk about your childhood wishes, you can even eat the dishes

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Who can take tomorrow, dip it in a dream
Separate the sorrow and collect up all the cream
The Candy Man, the Candy Man can
The Candy Man can 'cause he mixes it with love and makes the world taste good
Yes, the Candy Man can 'cause he mixes it with love and makes the world taste good
a-Candy Man, a-Candy Man, a-Candy Man
Candy Man, a-Candy Man, a-Candy Man
Candy Man, a-Candy Man, a-Candy Man

When I think of home
I think of a place where there's love overflowing
I wish I was home
I wish I was back there with the things I been knowing

Wind that makes the tall trees bend into leaning
Suddenly the snowflakes that fall have a meaning
Sprinklin' the scene, makes it all clean

Maybe there's a chance for me to go back there
Now that I have some direction
It would sure be nice to be back home
Where there's love and affection
And just maybe I can convince time to slow up
Giving me enough time in my life to grow up
Time be my friend, let me start again

Suddenly my world has changed it's face
But I still know where I'm going
I have had my mind spun around in space
And yet I've watched it growing

If you're list'ning God
Please don't make it hard to know
If we should believe in the things that we see
Tell us, should we run away
Should we try and stay
Or would it be better just to let things be?

Living here, in this brand new world
Might be a fantasy
But it taught me to love
So it's real, real to me

And I've learned
That we must look inside our hearts
To find a world full of love
Like yours
Like me

Like home

Addy--that song from Follies is not exactly happy in the context of the show.

Brief threadjack: John McMartin's performance as the original-cast Ben had so much depth and complexity that, when he acted the "breakdown" in that number, most people thought the actor himself was going up on his lines and choreography. It always reminded me of the moment in The Tempest when Prospero stops the wedding festivities and says "Our revels now are ended..."

Back to happy songs!

Talk about a Glitz
Sayin' to a Pip:
"Golly, Pippy, I'm a lucky cuss."
Talk about the Pip sayin' to the Glitz:
"You an' me is lucky to be us!"

Happy talk! Keep talkin' happy talk!
Talk about things you'd like to do.
You got to have a dream.
If you don't have a dream,
How you gonna have a dream come true?

If you don't talk happy,
And you never have a dream,
Then you'll never have a dream
Come true!

OK, I've been coffee-fied and I'm all perky now (no snickering).

I think I'll go for a walk outside now,
The summer sun's calling my name, I hear it now.
I just can't stay inside all day,
I've got to get out, gimme some of those rays.

Everybody's smiling (sunshine day),
Everybody's laughing (sunshine day),
Everybody seems so happy today in the sunshine day.

Oooh. Can't you dig the sunshine?
Feel the sun and the rays.
Can't you hear it calling your name?

Slow down, you move too fast.
You got to make the mornin' last.
Just kickin' down the cobblestones,
Lookin' for fun and feelin' groovy.
Ba da da da da da da, feelin' groovy.

Hello, lamppost, whatcha knowin'?
I come to watch your flowers growin'.
Ain'tcha got no rhymes for me?
Doo it doo doo, feelin' groovy.
Ba da da da da da da, feelin' groovy.

I got no deeds to do, no promises to keep.
I'm dappled and drowsy and ready to sleep
Let the morningtime drop all it's petals on me
Life, I love you, all is groovy!
Ba da da da da da da ba bap a dee...

Glitzy - the scary part is that my hubby bought me the best of the Brady Bunch as a joke and I've been listening to it. Their version of American Pie will make the darkest day turn bright...

Addy, I need to replace my Best of Simon and Garfunkle. I do love that song...

What a day for a day dream
What a day for a day dreamin' boy
And I'm lost in a day dream
Dreamin' 'bout my bundle of joy
And even if time ain't really on my side
It's one of those days for taking a walk outside
I'm blowing the day to take a walk in the sun
And fall on my face in somebody's new mowed lawn

I've been havin' a sweet dream
I've been dreamin' since I woke up today
It's starring me in my sweet dream
'Cause she's the one makes me feel this way
And even if time is passin' me by a lot
I couldn't care less about the dues you say I got
Tomorrow I'll pay the dues for dropping my load
A pie in the face for being a sleepy bull toad

---- Whistling Interlude ----

And you can be sure that if you're feelin right
A day dream will last a long time into the night
Tomorrow at breakfast you may ****up your ears
Or you may be dreamin' for a thousand years

What a day for a day dream
Custom made for a day dreamin' boy
Now I'm lost in a day dream
Dreamin' 'bout my bundle of joy

Why do birds suddenly appear
Every time you are near?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.

Why do stars fall down from the sky
Every time you walk by?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.

On the day that you were born
The angels got together
And decided to create a dream come true
So they sprinkled moon dust in your hair of gold
And starlight in your eyes of blue.

That is why all the girls in town
Follow you all around.
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.

Close to you.
Just like me (Just like me)

Wahhhhhhhhhhh, close to you.
Wahhhhhhhhhhh, close to you.
Hahhhhhhhhhhh, close to you.
Lahhhhhhhhhhh, close to you.

Good morning everyone! Guess my body is still on CDT 'cause I don't usually sleep in THIS late! Thought I'd at least stop in and say hi! I need to run out and get some contact solution because I have no idea where I packed it...but I'll be back and at least pop in once in awhile while I'm unpacking. I want to get that all done today and get rid of these boxes...
