For YOU my...

Wild Thing
(Chip Taylor)

Wild thing
You make my heart sing
You make everything
Come on, wild thing

Wild thing, I think you move me
But I gotta know for sure
Come on and hold me tight
Oh you move me

Wild thing
You make my heart sing
You make everything
Come on, wild thing

Wild thing,
I think I need you
But I gotta know for sure
Come on and squeeze me tight
Oh I need it

Wild thing
You make my heart sing
You make everything
Come on, wild thing

Yesterday was a good day!

my favourite movie...

Pretty Woman is an American romantic comedy motion picture that was one of the top films at the box office in 1990. The title character, a prostitute named Vivian Ward, was played by Julia Roberts, who received a Golden Globe award for her role. She was also nominated for an Academy Award, Best Actress. Screenwriter J. F. Lawton was nominated for a Writer's Guild Award and a British Academy Award.

Overview
Pretty Woman is the highest-grossing film of the romantic comedy genre, and possibly the most well-known. Set in Hollywood during the early 1990s, its themes include the tension between romantic love and social class: the main characters represent utter opposites in social class and wealth, while both work in occupations considered indecent by mainstream society, and yet are given sympathetic depiction. The film can be seen as a modern adaptation of the Pygmalion myth, and also bears striking resemblences to George Bernard Shaw's play of the same name (see Pygmalion (play), which also formed the basis for the musical My Fair Lady.
The male lead is a businessman Edward Lewis (played by Richard Gere). While ruthless in business — he is a "corporate raider" — he is portrayed as intelligent, sensitive, and pensive, unlike the more common stereotype of the late 1980s financial tycoon as coarse and narcissistic (and often nouveau riche). Asking for directions to his hotel, he meets a prostitute, Vivian. (In the United States, as in much of the world, prostitutes come disproportionately from the lower classes, and Vivian is understood to suffer from financial deprivation and desperation.) Because of her deprived background, she is naive and unaware of social graces, resulting in mild embarrassment for herself and Edward, but good-natured, cheerful, and unpretentious. In contrast to class and occupational archetypes — she's smart, kind, and perceptive. An unlikely love relationship grows between Edward and Vivian, and throughout the movie they struggle with the differences in social class and values.

a poem for Kyra - my soulmate

i miss you sooOOO very much.

And God asked the feline spirit
Are you ready to come home?
Oh yes, quite so, replied the precious soul
And, as a cat, I know I am able
To decide anything for myself

Are you coming then? Asked God
Soon, replied the whiskered angel
But I must come slowly
For my human friends are troubled
For you see, they need me, quite certainly

But don’t they understand? Asked God
That you will never leave them
That your souls are intertwined. For all Eternity?
That nothing is created or destroyed?
It just is.. forever, and ever and ever.

Eventually they will understand,
Replied the glorious cat
For I will whisper into their hearts
That I am always with them
I just am….forever and ever and ever.

what kept me away from work this week...

Tracheitis – Inflammation of the Trachea (windpipe).

Here are some info I gathered about Tracheitis:

Tracheitis is a bacterial infection of the trachea usually caused by viruses responsible for Colds, Influenza, Laryngitis and Bronchitis whereas the most common cause is Staphylococcus aureus.

Symptoms:
Causes a sore, burning sensation as air is taken into the lungs;
Intercostal retractions (the muscles between the ribs pull in as one attempts to breathe);
The trachea feels as if there is a raw, sore streak down it, with the mucus (tenacious, sticky phlegm) too far down to be coughed up.

Frequently, Tracheitis follows a recent viral upper respiratory infection (which I had about 3 weeks ago – influenza).
