Calling out Forrest
You know… out of left field recently, I had a sudden urge to reach out and smack the fictional character Forrest Gump. For one single, solid reason alone.. the comment about life being like a box of chocolates. I have no idea why the saying annoyed me this time around.. I mean, geeze… it’s a common, pop culture reference now and days, easily flowing off the tongue like any 2 bit blond joke. This time, however… when the saying crept it’s way into my noggin, I actually paused a moment to reflect on it, and low and behold, some previously unaware annoyance simmered in me… leading me to shout (silently.. which is an psuedo oxy-moron, I know, just roll with it) what the hell.. life is nothing like a … Read entire article »

The Waves
It’s hard to truly express things, when you feel like what you want to say is heavy, intense and unrelenting. It also changes every second. I fight the thoughts of my Mom and my family situation, but it’s always there, lingering. I’m not feeling very confident about the recovery process, and not feeling confident actually makes me feel like I’m betraying my mom in some way. Like I should be blindly walking through this process, totally ignoring my intuition and the signs my Mom let’s slip. I feel like by not feeling hope and faith to the story that’s unfolding, that I’m adding a level of negativity to an already black filled void. At the same time, I’m a realist and I’m way to tuned in to my Mom, to … Read entire article »

Fer Fuck’s Sake
Right now… I dream of a day when I’m not totally and physically stressed about money. I know.. big boo hoo to me, right. I get it, the world’s in an economic crises.. I know, I’ve been in the line of fire because of it. It’s just that currently, everytime I fucking turn around there’s something else needing/ taking money from me before the money’s even hit my account. I’m sick of it. It’s hard to even remember that it wasn’t always like this. It’s been nothing but a struggle since I moved and it’s seemed to hit it’s peak right now. I know it won’t always be like this, I get it.. but just for the moment, let me fucking say to the world… YES.. I AM Stressed. People … Read entire article »

Out Of Sorts
I woke up this morning in a usual array of unkept. ha… I don’t know why but that sentence makes me laugh. If you could just see what I meant by that statement, you would probably laugh too. Whenever I stay at my house, I toss and turn so much… that in the morning it’s looks like I waged war on my covers. I’ve gotten used to sleeping at the boys – so at my house, I have a big pillow that gets used as a stand-in for The Man…. sadly for the pillow though, it usually ends up being held in a death grip sometime through out the night. Poor pillow. Between the death grip, and the covers struggle… my bed looks like a battlefield. On top of that… … Read entire article »

Here We Go
Again. I’m editing this since it’s amazing how much better I feel now, then I did when I woke up. So in the spirit of an attitude adjustment… I figured this needed adjusting to. Actually, I think I covered most everything I was feeling in yesterday’s novel of a rant…. Last night I got to hang out with one of my BFFs- and damn if that wasn’t great. I’ve got a thousand and one guy friends, but few really close girlfriends. So lately I’ve been making it a point to hang out with my group of girls when time permits. Plus, I’ve actually made some new ones along the way recently, which has been equally great. I grew up with all guys, so I’m pretty familiar with how they work… … Read entire article »

The Year Of Upgrades
I’ll be right back, this is gonna need some liquid fuel. *commercial break* Ok… coffee in hand, music on, tucked into my favorite jammies- and I’m ready to roll. First, I have to share this horoscope……… it’s not mine but it’s still bodes well for me. haha “Leo - December 25, 2008 The celestial configuration may bring you closer together to a certain person with whom you have recently become romantically involved. Neither of you has exactly rushed into the relationship, yet you both have the intuition that you are meant for each other, and so time is not really an issue. You both feel secure in each other’s company, and are very content to deepen the bond between you” Anyway, so I’ve been thinking alot about what I want out of 2009. Since I spent Nov, Dec & … Read entire article »

Cocaine Fiends
ha… the title has nothing to do with anything except it was the first DVD on my shelf that I saw, when I looked up thinking “hmmm… what should I open this tangent with” and voila… it was either that or Attack Of The Giant Leeches and/or Dead Like Me. All great films for various shoddy content. Well, the Dead Like Me series is actually amazing but sadly it’s no longer on the air… Attack of The Giant Leeches, is exactly what you would expect. Thin story line and weak special effects. I love it for all it’s cinematic Blob-like niche horror flick-ness. haha Odd sentence structure but just roll with it. This last week at work was insane. We’re all holding our collective breaths to see what’s going to … Read entire article »

Loose Threads
I don’t really know where to start right now. Do you ever have those days where the thoughts are running rapid fire around your mind, but there’s no structure to the thought process? If I could just get the ideas in my head organized, I’d be able to grab a string, and yank the words out. A proverbial loose thread in a conversational sweater. I want to muse about the act of falling for someone… the stress of work, the economical black hole, the budding hope of our new president elect, the fact that I’m still, selfishly, hiding from the majority of the world… it seems if it doesn’t involve one of my BFF’s (Alie), the paper, the club or the boy… I just don’t have time or energy to expend…. … Read entire article »

- The 7 Most Absurd Inventions in the History of AlcoholismBy Luke McKinney Published: February 07th, 2012 Necessity might be the mother of invention, but alcohol is the wish-granting genie: faster, more spectacular and almost infinitely more guaranteed to go wildly wrong and make you look stupid in the morning.
