Fable #3: Storybook Love

To say the least, not very impressed.
Was definitely not my favorite one of the Fables series so far.


On the plus note - I had to be in Newmarket for work the other day and we stopped into the Chapters to grab a coffee from Starbucks.


I found #4, 5, 6, 7 which I couldn't for the life of me locate here in Toronto!  $75 out, but at least I don't have to try and figure out how to order it on line...



The Zoo

At first - the puffy bear was asleep


























But then puffy woke up and went splish splashing and dangling






























The Orangutan was looking for a hand out...


































The Tiger came a prowling...




































And the jellies came a squiggling...






































All in all... a good day to be a-zooing :)



What Do You Want From Me

Hey/Slow it down
What do you want from me
What do you want from me

Yeah/I'm afraid
What do you want from me
What do you want from me

There might have been a time
When I would give myself away
Oh once upon a time
I didn't give a damn

But now
Here we are

So what do you want from me

Just don't give up
I'm workin' it out
Please don't give in
I won't let you down
It messed me up
Need a second to breathe
Just keep coming around
Hey
What do you want from me
What do you want from me

Yeah/ It's plain to see
That baby you are beautiful
There's nothing wrong with you
(nothing wrong with you)
It's me
I'm a freak

But thanks for loving me
'Cause your doing it perfectly

Yeah, there might have been a time
When i would just let you slip away
I wouldn't even try
But I think you could save my life

Just don't give up
I'm workin' it out
Please don't give in
I won't let you down
It messed me up
Need a second to breathe
Just keep coming around
Hey
What do you want from me
(What do you want from me)

What do you want from me
(What do you want from me)

What do you want from me
(What do you want from me)

No, I won't let you down

So,just don't give up
I'm workin' it out
Please don't give in
I won't let you down
It messed me up
Need a second to breathe
Just keep coming around
Hey
What do you want from me

So,just don't give up
I'm workin' it out
Please don't give in
I won't let you down
It messed me up
Need a second to breathe
Just keep coming around
Hey

What do you want from me
(What do you want from me)

What do you want from me
(What do you want from me)

What do you want from me
(What do you want from me)

Things I Learnt This Weekend (And Two Days)

  • Friendships are like stars, they can be far away but still touch the deepest part of your heart
  • It takes self-understanding, self-realization, and self-acceptance to be all that you are yesterday... better today
  • Unconditional Love may only be 17 letters long, but bear a meaning far beyond the letters can explain; it means giving all of yourself and that of which you didn’t know existed in you to show someone else how much you care for them and accepting that through their wrongs and detours you will still always be there caring
  • Daffy Duck has a severely foul mouth and Bugs Bunny isn’t as funny as he used to be when I was a kid
  • I really miss having a dog (well I didn’t actually learn that – but came to re-realize that watching Marley & Me)
  • God may be there calling me again (thanks *friend*) and this time I might just be ready to listen
  • I am counting to my 25th Timmy’s and it’s official that I have no luck
  • Disappointment helps you to learn who you are and in turn, makes you grow and mature into a better person. Focussing on the disappointment will trap you in one place and that place is never a good one
  • There’s a Taiwanese boy who can sing Whitney Houston better than Whitney Houston
  • There are 300 calories for every 27 Cheetos – a bowl typically can hold about 81 which equates to about 900 calories
  • There is 330 mg of salt in a hot dog (Shopsy’s Brand)
  • Tomorrow will never come and yesterday will never return
  • If there's fight left in you, keep fighting, even if the silver lining is not visible
  • Sake is really deceiving, you won't feel it, until you stand up

All We'd Ever Need

Boy it's been all this time
And I can't get you off my mind
And nobody knows it but me

I stare at your photograph
Still sleep in the shirt you left
And nobody knows it but me

Everyday I wipe my tears away
So many nights I've prayed for you to say

[Chorus]
I should've been chasing you
I should've been trying to prove
That you were all that mattered to me
I should've said all the things
that I kept inside of me
And maybe I could've made you believe
That what we had was all we'd ever need

My friends think I'm moving on
But the truth is I'm not that strong
And nobody knows it but me

And I've kept all the words you said
In a box underneath my bed
And nobody knows it but me

But if you're happy I'll get through somehow
But the truth is that I've been screaming out

[Repeat Chorus]

I should've been chasing you
You should've been trying to prove
That you were all that mattered to me
Oh you should've said all the things
That I kept inside of me
And maybe you could've made me believe
That what we had girl
Oh that what we had, what we had
It was all we'd ever need
It was all we'd ever need
