About

This is a page by Jason and Betsy, two soon-to-be-new parents, and their adventures with Eliza. Expect wackiness and pictures.

The title of the blog comes from the song Love & Addiction by Counting Crows.

Put on your bad self
get out your party dress and
fix up your makeup try to make a good impression

this is a new world –
we’re all the same here, well maybe not the same
you know what I mean.

I’ve got everything that you want
I’ve got everything and someday I’ll be president.
I’ve for everything that you want..
I’ve got everything except the single thing you really need.

Separate, love from addiction its not the same
I know, I see
desperation pulling my strings.

Hey Eliza, now what do you want?
I play piano
and I sing like a humming bird

and oh I forgot
that humming birds don’t sing,
it doesn’t matter really
you know what I mean.
I’ve got everything that you want
I’ve got everything
and its a brand new world Eliza.

I’ve got everything that you want..
I’ve got everything except the single thing you really need.
Sail away blood and rejection ..they isolate.
I know, I see, a generation staring back at me..

Wasted away….wasted my time
this picture you see
is nothing like the one
I wanted painted of me.

“Eliza says it’s all right with me, if your sure …
it wouldn’t be the first time, you know it’s happened a couple of times before
and.. I don’t even expect much anymore and anyway…
it’s not as if I was waiting for you to come and make it all okay”.

Shut away to to wing
blood and rejection they isolate
I know I see visions of people grabbing hold of me.
Wasted away… wasted my time…
this picture you see
is nothing like the one I wanted painted of me.

Put on your bad self, get out your party dress and fix up your makeup try
and make a good impression.
