You lost me...

Last week's episode of Entourage consisted of an appearance by Christina Aguilera and once again I was blown away by her pipes and reminded of how nice it was to see a pop star that could actually sing. She performed the song "You Lost Me" from her latest album Bionic - - and if the song sounds familiar you probably heard her performing it everywhere this summer. Definitely a beautiful song.

For the full song:



And her performing it:



and if you're like me and obsessed with knowing the lyrics, here you go:

Christina Aguilera - You Lost Me

I am done, smoking gun
We've lost it all, the love is gone
She has won, now it's no fun
We've lost it all, the love is gone

And we had magic
And this is tragic
You couldn't keep your hands to yourself

I feel like our world's been infected
And somehow you left me neglected
We've found our lives been changed
Babe, you lost me

And we tried, oh how we cried
We lost ourselves, the love has died
And though we tried you can't deny
We're left as shells, we lost the fight

And we had magic
And this is tragic
You couldn't keep your hands to yourself

I feel like our world's been infected
And somehow you left me neglected
We've found our lives been changed
Babe, you lost me

Now I know you're sorry and we were sweet
But you chose lust when you deceived me
And you'll regret it, but it's too late
How can I ever trust you again?

I feel like our world's been infected
And somehow you left me neglected
We've found our lives been changed
Babe, you lost me

DLS: Magazines Galore...

I admit it - - I'm a magazine junkie! There's something about those glossy pages that scream my name, making it nearly impossible to pass them up as I check out in the grocery store.

You'd think I'd just get a subscription, but nope... I actually like browsing the covers, flipping thru the pages and buying them each month.

I love reading the articles, finding inspiration in the stories, escaping in the photos, and finding cool things to add to my vision board.

Despite things gravitating towards more of an online nature, no laptop, iPad or Blackberry can replace the joy I get from real, print media!

Reality Check: Teach Tony Danza

Before he was "The Boss" or making a name for himself on "Taxi", Toni Danza earned his degree in History Education from The University of Dubuque. This Fall viewers will be able to see what would've happened if Danza took a different path as he put his degree to use.

Previously filmed during the 2009-2010 school year, cameras followed Danza's every move as he took the reigns as a full time teacher at Philadelphia’s Northeast High School.

In the world of reality TV it's not common to find celebrities doing something with a purpose. I'm excited to see someone strip themselves of their "celebrity status" and get back to the basics.

Teach Tony Danza premieres on Friday Oct.1st @ 10/9c on A&E. This is a show you won't want to miss, so mark your calendars and get ready to watch.

Abortion: Personal Decision NOT a Legal Debate

I don't mind conservative viewpoints. I think they're a bit out of touch with the world we currently live in, but very rarely does a conservative opinion get underneath my skin the way that Carl Paladino (R - New York) managed to do.

While being interviewed on the CNN show Rick's List yesterday, he began to spout off his views on abortion and instantly my skin was crawling (around the 3:00 min mark in the video below).

When asked if he believed in abortion in the instances of rape or incest he said no. He thought that a woman should be forced to have the baby and give the child up for adoption. When I hear things like this... an archaic view point where the woman has no right to decide what will happen with her body, it pisses me off to no end.




Imagine if his wife, sister or daughter were raped and forced to carry a child that they did not want. Only to give birth and give it up for adoption. Not only do you have an even more emotionally scarred woman, but you've brought another emotionally glitched out kid into the world.

I believe that the matter of abortion should be decided by the woman. Now, if a woman wants to carry the child that is up to her... but under no circumstances should her rights be taken away.

Wonderful in White

The idea of making a 300 sq ft studio livable sends me into a panic... However, Emily from Chicago managed to work wonders with her small space. Her home was featured on Apartment Therapy and the fresh, white palette caught my eye.

Bedtime Stories

Putting their Japanese spin on a childhood favorite, Point Architects is hoping to forever change bedtime stories with the creation of their Uroko House Book Igloo. Part igloo, part bookshelf, this structure is sure to be every child's favorite escape. They're able to access their favorite books from either side and the extra storage is a great space saver for parents. I imagine many awesome bedtime stories and sweet dreams will be taking place inside this gem.
