Music:

I have a very odd taste in music. You really do NOT want to know.The song that best describes me:Mi Vida Loca: Song Lyrics : Mi Vida Loca (My Crazy Life) (Pam Tills/Jeff Leary) Mi Vida Loca (My Crazy Life) Pam Tills/Jeff Leary If you're coming with me you need
nerves of steel
Cause I take corners on two wheels
It's a never-ending circus ride
The faint of heart need not apply

(Chorus)
Mi vida loca over and over
Destiny turns on a dime
I go where the wind blows
You can't tame a wild rose
Welcome to my crazy life

Sweetheart before this night is through
I could fall in love with you
Come dancing on the edge with me
Let my passion set you free

(Repeat Chorus)

Here in the firelight I see your tattoo
Mi vida loco, so you're crazy too

(Repeat Chorus)

We'll go where the wind blows
And I'll be a wild rose
Welcome to my crazy life © 1994

Books:

see: www.karenmoning.com
One of my favorite Stephen King short stories is "Mrs. Todd's Shortcut".
Ophelia Todd had one passion...to find the shortcut from here to there. She was aware that the shortest straight line from here to there was "as the crow flies". She was also aware the if you "accordian pleat" folded the map...that distance got a little shorter.
"She was like that woman drivin the moon across the sky, halfway up over the splashboard with her gossamer stoles all flyin out behind her in silver cobwebs and her hair streamin back to show the dark little hollows of her temples, lashin those horses and tellin me to get along faster and never mind how they blowed, just faster, faster, faster." - Homer Buckland in Mrs. Todd's Shortcut, Skeleton Crew.
Ophelia found her shortcut...and it was through lands no waking eye ever dared set sight on. But, what was more interesting, was Dave's observation that Ophelia had found her fountain of youth.
"I sit on the bench in front of Bell's Market and think about Homer Buckland and about the beautiful girl who leaned over to open his door when he come down that path with the full red gasoline can in his right hand - she looked like a girl of no more than sixteen, a girl on her learner's permit, and her beauty was terrible, but I believe it would no longer kill the man it turned itself on; for a moment her eyes lit on me, I was not killed, although a part of me died at her feet." - Dave in Mrs. Todd's Shortcut, Skeleton Crew.
