RIP Kurt

I really am just stunned this is still something people mull and try to work out. I remember the day I heard that Kurt was dead. It was breaking news on just about every channel. I think I was watching Kurt Loder deliver the blow on M tv. I cried with the rest of his fans while I watched the story be rehashed on tv, all the wile listening to the one true grunge god croon "And I swear that I don't have a gun." on my then( still) favorite album, Nevermind.    There is much, I could say about his tragic, yet chosen end, and addicts, and depression, and Courtney, but I won't. There is no point. The fact is a young, troubled , talented , man's life is no more.  Let's stop playing conspiracy detective and digging up bones. He is gone. Let's just hope he is in a better place and be thankful he left us with a part of himself. http://dlisted.com/2014/04/30/kurt-cobain-called-courtney-love-a-bitch-with-zits-in-a-letter/

Natural or plastic?

"What in the hell are you thinking?!"  Was my guy's reply when I told him I wanted to get a mommy make over.  Now by mommy make over I don't mean new makeup , hair, and clothes. When I say mommy make over I mean tummy tuck, boob lift/augmentation and perhaps even a chemical peel.  He was appalled that I would want to go under the knife to alter my body when it is just fine...according to him.  He went on to say that it was very vain and ridiculous of me since I look so young for my age and I should not be thinking of being put under and carved on, and blah, blah, blah, and a bunch of other stuff that in no way convince my brain that what he is saying is true. ( yeah Im off that way)  OK, so maybe he is partially right but in all fairness isn't he also partially wrong?  Let's dissect shall we? (It is my body, and my self esteem and life and...oh yes sorry..back to dissecting)   I do agree that while one can go too far with the plastic surgery that a ...

No soup for you!

Top O the mornin..errr afternoon to ya!  The air is crisp and I am busy as usual. Busy though I am I just had to come and rant about something I read today on Facebook. It seems that in Utah a group of elementary students had their lunch trays snatched from their hands because their accounts were past due. Yes you heard me. They were served and then had the food taken and thrown in the trash!  Now a spokesperson for the school said that they could not see who owed money and who didn't until they were served and that the children were given fruit and milk.  Are you flipping kidding me?????? The parents needless to say were livid. As they should be! I mean this mom would have shown up with her bitch on!    I know what you are thinking right now. You are thinking maybe this is one of those Facebook things that just gets passed around that isn't true or is over exaggerated. Well I am here to tell you it is not! I looked it up and this story is all over the p...

You gave what?!

   The holidays are upon us! I mean they are practically here! We are just days from Christmas. Oh what excitement...kids, gifts, food, family! Everyone will eat drink and be merry!  We will all have more than we need in the way of gifts and decadent fattening food....or will we?  No, all of us will not have all we need. Many, many people are having a hard time this year and depend on donations of food and toys to get them through Christmas.  Which brings me to something I have thought quite a lot about in the last few weeks as I ventured out from store to store and saw the many collection bins for food items and toys.     At one particular store I had ample time to stand and study a toy bin for quite sometime while I waited on the rest of my party to get through the massive check out line.  As I stood and studied I could see various games, stuffed animals, dolls, trucks, and even a few video games.  BUT....I also saw things like the ...

It is here!!!!!

   Happy Christmas everyone!!! Can you believe it? The time has just flown by and once again Santa is about to don our roof tops and zip down our chimneys with tons of holiday fun that mom and dad will spend the rest of the year paying off.  I kid...we all know Santa doesn't take credit cards!  I know that this has been a very busy time for me and my sadly neglected blogs show it.  Between writing and trying to get some things finished and published andddddd tring to get presents bought for my clan it is just well it is exhausting. Exausting but enjoyable. I work very well under pressure.  I just love the fact that I am getting some things accomplished!  So my friends I hope you will hang with me on this little adventure and know that soon I will be back to posting regularly, or at least regular for me. ;) ;) Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

Unstoppable

   Well I have survived yet another migraine! (insert holy harp music here)  It is on day two and I am still feeling the after affects of this monster headache which pretty much debilitated me yesterday, and has me dragging ass today.  I was up for probably a total of 2 hours yesterday and that was to take more meds and go to the bathroom.  The minute I was done with said bathroom trips and knocking back another almost useless pill I would slink back into a very, very, dark and quiet room and try to get to sleep. It was at this point that I began to talk to myself like Gollum.  Precious and I discussed how it would be to our relief to just remove my head.  It would work wonders if we could do that. I even grabbed my phone from the bedside table and thought of hitting old Google for guillotine rentals. (261,000 results if you're curious) I did realize I would probably need my head attached in the coming days and would not want to be known round my hood...

Tis the season!

   It is that time of year again!  No, not Halloween, Thanksgiving, or Christmas!  I am talking the event that all word smiths, tale spinners and wanna bes covet about all other times of the year.  NaNoWriMo, Nationl Novel Writing Month, that time when in the whole month of November participants make a commitment to reach 50 k words and write and entire novel by November's end, and in doing so you can proclaim to the world that you "won".    This is a fabulous opportunity and can be very inspiring. It can also be maddening and frustrating if you focus too much energy on reaching your word count.  My first time out I became very frustrated and very depressed that I was not up to par with my daily word count and by NaNo's closing day had only written 32 K words.   I was so sad I could not shout about winning!  That is until my other half pointed out that I was not seeing the fact that I had written over 30 THOUSAND WORDS IN A MONTH...
