I was a little sick this past couple of days so I decided to take a day off the other day and rest. Turned the TV on and hopefully waited for AC on CNNi. He didn't let me down, I spent some time with AC for two full hours. I got better! "So... was it an andersickness or anderwithdrawal?" my husband asked me when I told him that I spent some time with AC. "It doesn't matter," I said, "He made me feel better, that's all I know." Haha... Anyway, I'm sure I won't see him anymore on CNNi because he's coming home to NY.

To get me through another long anderless days... I'm posting this caps.

Sophia

I love this song, I've been listening to it for two weeks now and I can't shake it off my head. It's by Nerina Pallot.




Sophia

Five o’ clock and a fire escape symphony
Spilling out across the road and the square
And the sky’s the same as your own, do you think of me?
Do the parks and trees and the leaves reach you there?
After the rain, in the lonely hours he haunts me....
Calling out, again, and again....
Sophia, Sophia, I’m burning, I’m burning
It’s a fire, a fire I cannot put out. Sophia, Sophia,
I’m learning that some things I can’t go without
And one of those is him.

And now I walk these streets like a stranger in my home town,
Learn the language, form the words when I speak.
But he changed me, I’m his ghost since he came around
Now I count the hours, and the days and the weeks.....
In passion and silence,
Every word, every line a measure It’s the science of the soul.
And his books, they breathe a reason
And now, I want to know.....
Sophia, Sophia, I’m burning, I’m burning
It’s a fire, a fire I cannot put out.
Sophia, Sophia, I’m learning that some things
I can’t go without And one of those is him.

And you, with your new born eyes,
Have you ever loved a man like I love him?
Do you hurt, but still feel alive Like never before?
Oh Sophia! Sophia!
Sophia, Sophia, I’m burning, I’m burning
It’s a fire, a fire I cannot put out.
Sophia, Sophia,
I’m learning that some things I can’t go without
I can’t go without him.


(I wish I wrote the lyrics, I could see AC all over it)

Dark clouds follow me everywhere.

Same time last year, I was worried that I was gonna lose my job, the company that I used to work for wasn’t doing very well. I was told not to worry but I had a feeling that they’d let me go before the year ended, I was right. They did let me go and to makes matters worse they haven’t given me my final pay up to now.

Since April of this year I have been changing jobs every couple of weeks, I couldn’t find a work place that I really want. It took me a month and a week, a resignation and a come back before I realized that I like it here, in my current office, the salary is not much but I can go home early and spend more time with my kids, I was happy and content… until yesterday.

It seems like I need to change job… again. It’s a long story and the bottom line is they’re (Board of Trustees) going to file for financial loss, I find it hard to believe, how could they close down the press and publication house of a university?

October 15, 2006, shall be the our last official working day. Looks like I’m about to roll again…

Be safe, Anderson!

Man! Anderson is in Afghanistan, I hope he stays safe. I miss AC, sigh...

One thing I notice though, something is wrong with his haircut, is it too short? or was it cut the wrong way? Is it me or the sides are wayyyyyy too short and yet middle part is rather long?

I think I need to sleep, maybe he'll look better when I wake up.

Big thanks to Stillife for the screencap.

CIA Anderson!

And I thought I knew almost everything there is to know about Anderson... he's full of surprises!

Anderson's latest blog is all about his summer job ...nearly 20 years ago. Today's blog made me go all crazy for him all over again. Such a funny guy!

Now, I miss him even more. *stabs cnni* *runs to the room crying*

"I know the CIA may sound more exotic and mysterious, but it was actually pretty bureaucratic and mundane..." he said. Well, it may be true but this I know for sure... he would've made the CIA look good.

But I think we should understand why he kept it a secret to the public, wait... is it even a secret? He did not tell the public about it, simple as that. It is his right, anyway.

Why wouldn't he tell us about his CIA past? Possible answers:

1. He goes to dangerous places every now and then. Association with the CIA might endanger his life.

2. He's well-known, not hollywood-style-celebrity-status-famous but he is just as famous and a CIA past, no matter how mundane it might be will still somehow make some terrorist organization suspect that he's still a CIA agent. I hope they understand that it was a summer job... twenty years ago. He didn't pursue the career... he didn't like it. He is a journalist! Okay?

3. It's none of our business!

goodbye, steve!

I can't believe Steve Irwin's dead! Sure, he's crazy but he's careful and he knew what he was doing. I've always thought that he'd be killed by of one of those crocodiles he handled but I guess he knew crocodiles well. A stingray killed him. I'm actually lost for words, I don't know what to say. My heart goes out to his wife, Terri, and their two kids, specially Bindi Sue. How do you tell an eight-year-old kid that her daddy's dead?

He made me scream a whole lot, he was so full of life. I look at him as a little kid, he's always enthusiastic about everything. I will miss you a lot, Steve! Animal Planet will never be the same without you.

My son loves him, he loves watching Crocodile Hunter and New Breed Vets. He even watched Steve's movie.

Sad day indeed.
