Out with the old...

After running into some issues with comments (sorry if you weren't able to comment on a post) on blogger, I've decided to try out WordPress and see how it goes.  Let me know how you feel about the new blog...

I won't be posting here anymore but I'm definitely going to leave up the blog so you can look through old posts.

Saturday Morning Special

Dreaming Nightmares

by Alex Mobley

The emotion that's lost

with each lasting breath

falls back into place

as you drift off to sleep

danger clouds judgement

between nightmares and dreams

separating the two 

from one simple manifestation

what once reminded you

that things were so simple

now blinds any true sight

crashes through smiles

dims the bright light

which started this utterance

its mere blabbering of thought

can't be translated

into actual meaning

or recognizable sentences

scrambled in a moment

only clear during sleep

vivid as could possibly be

no memory or recollection

as your eyes slowly wake

and wish that just one time

everything could be expressed

not broken down into fragments

that make absolutely no sense

stolen by some significant force

needing it for its own

to postulate and perpetrate

the one who has taken

all the memories from your sleep

to live out some random life

where there is no control

no order or meaning

no rhyme and no reason

just a collection of actions

created in the mind

that could be reality

but has not yet been considered

another life that we live

as we reenergize for what's real

Love Bug

Sometimes Sweet Pea is a little love bug and some times she can be well, let's just say the opposite.  Either way we love her and our hearts will always melt when she looks up at us with those big brown eyes!

The Blues Are Still Blue

Thinking about getting two of these for a reading nook in my house.

I think they will work perfectly in front of this:

Surprise!

To my surprise, Leanne and Daniel magically appeared at Hopfields on Friday night to spend just a few hours with us before heading back to Albuquerque on their epic road trip.  Unfortunately for them, Robert is a horrible liar and I knew that we weren't just meeting his friends.  Either way it was the most wonderful thing ever, I just wish they could have stayed longer!

Leanne really bonded with our little Sweet Pea, I can't say the same about Daniel though!  Poor Sweet Pea just growled at him, I think she doesn't like men with beards.  Sorry man!

Come back and visit any time sister!  We miss you!

Cynically Insane

by Alex Mobley

The cynical person in me

knows that it's all shit

but the optimist side

controls all the cynicism

a vicious circle of disheartening 

grasping at broken straws

as if nothing else matters

but everything has meaning

deep within an empty soul

lies the truth of an existence

one with hope and exuberance

a model of efficiency

lacking a dreadful thought

creeping through an open mind

bleak notions of happy endings

when we all know what's real

nothing ends completely happy
