"I've been waiting for a long time
For this moment to come
I'm destined
For anything...at all
Downtown lights will be shining
On me like a new diamond
Ring out under the midnight hour
No one can touch me now
And I can't turn my back
It's too late ready or not at all

I'm so much closer than
I have ever known...
Wake up

Dawning of a new era
Calling...don't let it catch you falling
Ready or not at all
So close enough to taste it
Almost...I can embrace this
Feeling....on the tip of my tongue

I'm so much closer than
I have ever known...
Wake up
Better thank your lucky stars....

I've been waiting for a lifetime
For this moment to come
I'm destined for anything at all

Dumbstruck
Colour me stupid
Good luck
You're gonna need it
Where I'm going if I get there...
At all....

Wake up
Better thank your lucky stars...."


I got the apartment! Woo-hoo! That song seemed really appropriate, yeah, 'ol Green Day. I heard it today and thought holy shit. Moving to the city theme song. So I quoted it. Even thought Green Day got on my nerves for a while, not through any fault of their own. It was because a former coworker/friend had known them personally at one point, and supposedly was their road manager once? although I sure didn't see his ass on "Behind the Music". But anyhoo, he was forever on about Green Day: "Billie used too..." and "Tre once said..." and I was like listen, bub, Tre can just kiss my ass at this point 'cause I am sick of hearing about them! Friggin' name-dropper- hey didja hurt your foot? Anyway, I'm over it... and they are my nephew's favorite... and I am moving to the big city and I can put my computer right in front of the window and pretend I am Carrie on "Sex and the City" typing away, like anyone cares. I am so nervous and excited right now. What'll be funny is to see how many people that were encouraging about it will run for the hills when I say I need help moving stuff. That is usually the case. I will probably have to break down and hire somebody. But it will be worth it YEEEEHAW!
