Tell me, when does someday get here?

[Wapsie B]

I am finding a real aversion to that word. It'll happen someday I'm told. But tomorrow never comes, and this elusive someday is just another undefined time beyond the horizon. I've got the patience of Job but it's wearing thin. It's not like I started this yesterday. I've been told that maybe my expectations are too high, that no one or nothing would be able to live up to them. Well I gotta tell ya that with each passing day those expectations are not only not lowered they are raised. My thinking is that well, I've waited this long, my reward for doing so must be more than worth the wait.

I hate the word someday.

Anticipation turns to reminiscence in an instant.

[Wapsie B]

6. Thanks.

:hug:

I just want to have enough good health and time left to enjoy it when I do get it.
I've heard the least expecting rule before but I dunno............I'm just tired

[lost-in-nj]

7. ...

I have some left over

:hug: :hug:

lost

[Rodanthe]

8. Please.

Don't make me sing from "Annie." It's really not pretty. But, I will if you keep this up.

[Wapsie B]

9. ...............

:rofl:

Thanks for the laugh.

I'm not really into show tunes though. :)

Welcome to DU!

[Rodanthe]

You laugh

as if you've heard me sing before.

Well, no matter how badly I sing, it's not nearly as bad as David Hasselhoff singing the "ooga chaka" song. And now, thanks to him, I am most definitely NOT hooked on a feeling. But, I guess you didn't need to know all of that seeing as how you're already upset and all. Anyway, thanks for the welcome. I'm not really sure what this lounge thingy is all about, but I'm testing the waters here.

[Wapsie B]

13. It was just the way you said it

that made me chuckle. You don't like Hasselhoff? :cry: :P

[Rodanthe]

19. Who doesn't love David Hasselhoff?

And seriously, what song doesn't benefit from the lyric: "Ooga Chucka?"

[Wapsie B]

21. Well ya got me there!

Omg that video is priceless! :rofl:

[Rodanthe]

23. You actually watched it?

Damn. I just thought you had left for the evening. :o

But, isn't it just a teensy bit impressive that he did that video with a straight face?

[Wapsie B]

27. Yes I did.

About ready to go out but me and my curiosity just had to see it. Yes it is impressive in that respect. Like he was spoofing himself. :)

[Rodanthe]

32. And to think that all this time,

you thought he was just another pretty face. :)

[Wapsie B]

33. Yeah beauty and talent too.

That plus a TV show that's syndicated worldwide. :)

[texanwitch]

30. I can hear that song in my head right now.

Tomorrow, tomorrow is just a day away.

[Deja Q]

10. Later

:D

[Wapsie B]

14. Gator

:rofl:

[Deja Q]

17. How big is your crocodile?

:rofl:

[Wapsie B]

22. I don't know

He won't stand still long enough for me to measure. :P

[skater314159]

11. In the great words of CCR...

Me too... people have told me someday on sooo many different things. I'm still young, I'm tired of waiting for "someday" too... but I just keep hanging on and making my life the best that I can with what I've got. Keep the faith my friend.

"Someday Never Comes"

First thing I remember was askin papa, why? ,
For there were many things I didnt know.
And daddy always smiled; took me by the hand,
Sayin, someday youll understand.

Chorus:
Well, Im here to tell you now each and evry mothers son
You better learn it fast; you better learn it young,
cause, someday never comes.

Well, time and tears went by and I collected dust,
For there were many things I didnt know.
When daddy went away, he said, try to be a man,
And, someday youll understand.

Chorus

And then, one day in april, I wasnt even there,
For there were many things I didnt know.
A son was born to me; mama held his hand,
Sayin someday youll understand.

Chorus

Think it was september, the year I went away,
For there were many things I didnt know.
And I still see him standing, tryn to be a man;
I said, someday youll understand.

Chorus

Mmmm-mmmm-mmmm....

:hippie: Peace :smoke:

[Inchworm]

15. And here is the youtube

Sound is good, I didnt watch the cartoon video.

[Wapsie B]

16. Thanks my friend.

pass me that joint

:smoke:

[BarenakedLady]

12. One day...

I've been living for "one day" for a long time now. It's really frustrating!

x(

[Wapsie B]

20. Yeah I know I'm not alone in feeling this way.

And I hate feeling like all of this is out of my control, as if there's some giant puppeteer pulling all the strings and deciding who gets what. I go to the store see a loaf of bread on the shelf and I buy it. I want life to be the same way.

[Haole Girl]

18. I don't like the word either

It always feels like it should have the expression "shattered dreams" attached to it.

[Wapsie B]

24. Yes exactly.

That and a polite brush-off too.

[Inchworm]

25. This song helps me (Lennon YouTube)

I hate the concept of "someday" too

I stopped asking advice because they say someday it will all work out yada yada.

Since CCR song was mentioned upthread.

It's subtle and hes talking about his kid but the song that answers this question in my head.

favorite line.. "life is what happens to you while you are busy making other plans"

[Generic Brad]

26. Last week

You snooze, you lose.

[Wapsie B]

29. Yeah, that's my story at times anyway.

[Generic Brad]

34. And it was wonderful

All our dreams came true. The youth miraculously matured and were granted voting rights, drivers licenses and were able to gamble and buy booze. All those long yearned for travels happened. Everything most of said we would do some day finally got done.

It was great.

Are you implying that you did not get the memo. **Who the hell was in charge of sending out the memos? Did you forget to include bushwentawol again?**

[Wapsie B]

36. Yeah I didn't get the memo.

:P

In a parallel universe I suppose everything's the way I want it to be. I just want to make this one the way I want it to be as well.

[Shine]

31. The Dalai Lama sez: "The address of True Happiness is Right Here, Right Now."

I love that. :loveya:

I'm with ya on the "someday" thing. Screw that.

[Wapsie B]

35. Hmmmm.......that's an interesting concept.........

But it makes sense I suppose. I'd love to read more on his ideas about this. Thanks. :)
