It's Girls' Week here in the middle of nowhere...beginning tomorrow! Woo Hoo!
But if I had time this week, I would totally be doing Trifecta’s Prompt #3!
Write a 33-333 word response to the song featured below. There are no other requirements for this prompt. Just use the song to inspire a creative response. The Smashing Pumpkins’ song “Thirty-Three”.
First of all, I’ve always
liked this Chicago band and bummed out they broke up. There’s a ton of significance
to thirty-three in this song. The video is awesome, quirky and sooo good! Watch
it.
Love this line for some reason; “Tomorrow’s just an excuse
away”, among others.
Somebody out there! Pretty please write this for me?
Of course, as you, however. I don't cheat!
(I just wanted to put it on record the hour Trifecta published the prompts that this is the one I would have chosen even though I'm not writing for it)

"Thirty-Three"
The Smashing Pumpkins
Speak to me in a language I
can hear
Humour me before I have to go
Deep in thought I forgive
everyone
As the cluttered streets
greet me once again
I know I can't be late,
supper's waiting on the table
Tomorrow's just an excuse
away
So I pull my collar up and
face the cold, on my own
The earth laughs beneath my
heavy feet
At the blasphemy in my old
jangly walk
Steeple guide me to my heart
and home
The sun is out and up and
down again
I know I'll make it, love can
last forever
Graceful swans of never
topple to the earth
And you can make it last,
forever you
You can make it last, forever
you
And for a moment I lose myself
Wrapped up in the pleasures
of the world
I've journeyed here and there
and back again
But in the same old haunts I
still find my friends
Mysteries not ready to reveal
Sympathies I'm ready to
return
I'll make the effort, love
can last forever
Graceful swans of never
topple to the earth
Tomorrow's just an excuse
And you can make it last,
forever you
You can make it last, forever
you

no excuses in our house...just solutions...that's what we tell our kids anyway.
I know, I know! Same here so I will just have to reside myself to the fact that I want to write something for it but won't. And that's ok too. But I would do this prompt for sure!
