"Not Ready to Make Nice" by The Chicks rewritten to be about my dad

Recently, The Chicks gave a concert in Chicago and I (of course) attended. During the performance, some of the songs struck a chord w ith me, but made me want to alter the lyrics to a few. Anyways, here's "Not Ready to Let Go" . Forgive? Wish I could Forget? You knew I never would They say time heals everything But I'm still waiting You would blackout You left it all all for us to figure out You paid a price Yet we'll keep payin' I'm not ready to let go I'm not ready to move on I'm still mad as hell and I won't be told It's long past time for closure Would you even make it right? Would you know how to if you still could? 'Cause I'm mad as hell, can't bring myself To do what nescient folks think I should Perhaps you'd say "Can't you just leave me be?" You turned my whole world around And I do resent it We make our beds but don't dream like we did It's a sad, sad story when a mother will teach her Daughte...

Thoughts on 90 Day Fiancé: Hunt for Love season 2, episode 1

Time for the second season premiere in this franchise to air in 48 hours! I find it interesting that we're watching Jamal arrive via boat Jamal is into the events coordinator haha Jamal, I'm not sure you mean what you're saying because you said your problem with commitment is you see red flags too fast...the problem is that you then ignore them, like red flags are bad Lol it would've been so funny if Kim was on this season too Ugh, Kara likes a thing in guys I HATE (ordering for me) I do agree with Kara that a guy has to smell good Wow I had completely forgotten about Razvan I gotta say, I do not remember Razvan being "weird" and the few social media clips they showed just demonstrate, to me, that he has a baseline sense of humor (this is not to say that he doesn't have more personality, just that it has not been shown yet) Am I remembering correctly that a good chunk of Brittany's exes were significantly older? I mean I do agree that Kara is very phys...

Thoughts on 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way season 8, episode 1

Time for the season premiere!  Jessy, 1) you can learn to make empanadas if you want, 2) I feel like Spain does have empanadas so like (depending on where in Italy you're moving) you may be able to find a Spanish restaurant Not sure we should say we're not sure if Vittorio is "gay or European) Jessy, to be fair to your friends' doubts, it sounds like you've historically had bad taste in men Andi sounds good (a rarity for performers on this show) Andi, the psychic said you would meet your soulmate on beach...not just go on a beach date (like, yes, it was their second date so it was early, but she met him elsewhere) This may shock folks, but I think Andi's parents calling her "Annoying Andi" is not awesome Andi, how is Nigel and you splitting the cost of a timeshare the plan if he hasn't said that he'd do that I think Andi's family has a right to be concerned So, breathe, moan, and purr are all different verbs, y'all Ally is so pretty Th...
