A little bit of me.

Well, I love to play massive RPG games. But, if you're gonna be addicted to something, this is the least harmful..lol, but at least I get other things done as well, and don't spend ALL my time in fantasy-land.
I have 1 little girl, 1 dog, 1 husband (it'd be kinda weird to have more than one of those...lol)and generally love life, even with its ups and downs...and belive me, I've been riding it on the downhill slopes a lot...which while great for rollercoasters, sledding, and bike rides, is not so much fun in real life.
Anyway, I have the attention span of a goldfish so I play games sparatically, and hour or so on, then a few off, etc etc etc.
My greatest loves in life are, of course my family, friends, and food.....mmmmm....I'm just glad it doesn't stick to me too much...guess running after a nearly 2 year old keeps you in shape.
I love doing yoga (none of that crazy stuff you see in movies though) but have a problem with consistency.
I'm pretty sure I'm a little obsessive compulsive, because everything has to be perfect or a disaster for me to be happy, no middle ground for this girl!
I love to argue, and generally know what I'm talking about because I also love to research.I try to be a great friend to anyone who needs one, because I've been where I didn't have any- I'd rather have no friends than fake ones.
Everyone needs someone who they can confide in and not judge them.
Honesty is important to me, and I will tell you exactly what I think.
Well, that's me, take it or leave it. Good luck on your exploits!

The Snow Walker

As she walks across the snow, she leaves no footprint, no evidence of her ever being there.
But as she walks she brings life, life to the plants as they start to grow in the bitter cold, and then to the mice and the animals as they start to awaken, and the sun comes up to spread light across the vast plain of darkness.
She treads quietly, as to not break the great peace, but to let it sleep, dreaming its dream of everlasting harmony.
Then she steps too hard, shattering the peace and awakening the chaos.
She starts to run, leaving deep trenches in the snow, leaving evidence she was there.
Then, they see her, her hair like fire, her white gown blowing in the wind.
They run after her.
Then she turns to look at her almost imminent fate, but they stop, seeing the glory and the wilderness in her eyes, they turn around, satisfied with having seen her.
They leave, leaving her alone, once more she is alone, free.

INSTALLING A HUSBAND

Dear Tech Support,

Last year I upgraded from Boyfriend 5.0 to Husband 1.0 and noticed a distinct slow down in overall system performance, particularly in the flower and jewelry applications, which operated flawlessly under Boyfriend 5.0.

In addition, Husband 1.0 uninstalled many other valuable programs, such asRomance 9.5 and Personal Attention 6.5,and then installed undesirable programs such as NBA 5.0, NFL 3.0 and Golf Clubs 4.1.

Conversation 8.0no longer runs, and Housecleaning 2.6 simply crashes the system.
Please note that I have tried running Nagging 5.3 to fix these problems, but to no avail.

What can I do?

Signed,

Desperate.




DEAR DESPERATE,

First, keep in mind, Boyfriend 5.0 is an Entertainment Package, while Husband 1.0 is an operating system.

Please enter command: ithoughtyoulovedme.html and try to download Tears 6.2 and do not forget to install the Guilt 3.0update.

If that application works as designed, Husband1.0 should then automatically run the applications Jewelry 2.0 and Flowers 3.5.

However, remember, overuse of the above application can cause Husband 1.0 to default to Grumpy Silence 2.5, Happy Hour 7.0 or Beer 6.1.

Please note that Beer 6. 1 is a very bad program that will download the Farting and Snoring Loudly Beta.

Whatever you do, DO NOTunder any circumstances install Mother-In-Law 1.0 (it runs a virus in the background that will eventually seize control of all your system resources)
In addition, please do not attempt to reinstall the Boyfriend 5.0 program.These are unsupported applications and will crash Husband 1.0.

In summary, Husband 1.0 is a great program, but it does have limited memory and cannot learn new applications quickly. You might consider buying additional software to improve memory and performance.

We recommend Cooking 3.0 and Hot Lingerie 7.7.

Good Luck!

Time Flies

I really don't know what I want to say today, but I figured I'll try to post something each day. So we'll see where this goes.
Can you belive its nearly the end of November? This year went by so quickly. I remeber last Christmas as if it was last week, and it seems like the rest of the year was simply a flash of images and memories. So much has hapened over the year though. My little girl learned to crawl and to walk and to talk and climb, lol, and everything else. I finalized my bankruptcy. We moved from Colorado to West Virginia, my husband got a new job, my grandmother has been in the hospital 4 or 5 times, I lost touch and stayed in touch with various friends. I started going back to college, and am nearly finished with my first new, or third otherwise, semester (doing well by the way) I started listening to a radio show (now called Stand Up with Pete Dominick on Sirius/XM channel POTUS), and joined a club/volunteer organization (CEOS). I voted for and saw the election of a new president. I traveled all over the country for a couple months with my husband on the road from Oregon to Texas, to Virginia, to many other states. I laughed and cried, and sat bored a lot too.
Its so wierd, I can't believe I'm 22. Its odd that high school seems so short a tme ago, but also ages away. Time passes so quickly. I wonder where I'll be at this time next year.
The other day I was going through movies of my little girl when she was younger, as she was just starting to lift her little head up, and her first learning to crawl, and learning to feed herself, and the many other small events that have joined to make my life so wonderful with her in it. I'm such a big baby now at times. I was sorting through pictures and couldn't help the droplets of tears that formed as a result of the memories.
well, anyway, i'll quit ramblin on. I don't know if anyone will read this, and if you don't I'm not offended...lol, if i weren't the one writing it, I wouldn't, but here it is.

Give a Little Love

Throughout the year and the days, especially during the holiday seasons, people are generally in a rush. Take a second, each time you are out and about getting your daily list done, and consider the strangers around you. Stop and compliment someone, smile at someone for no other reason than to spread some joy.
Whenever I am at Walmart, I always take a moment to compliment my cashier, or even another customer. My husband always laughs at me, and asked once, "Why do you do that? Every time we go somewhere you have a conversation with someone you don't know." (Well that was the gist of it, perhaps not his exact words.)
I said this to him, "I might be the only good thing that happens to that person today."
Think about that. Doesn't it feel wonderful when you are complimented? Isn't it nice when you are stressed and someone takes a second to say, I appreciate you? Just a few simple words can make such a difference to someone who needs to here them.
So take a second and compliment a complete stranger. Talk to your cashiers and waitresses and sales associates. Hug someone who looks like they need it. Tell a friend you love them. Tell your family you love them. And smile to yourself, because you did a wonderful thing today, you created a little more of the most prescious and rare commodity, love.
I sent my love to all of you out there.

I Shall Be Gone Too

In the fiery sunset I see nothing but your face, with your spirit gleaming. You whisper to me in a breeze, I am lonely for you. I dream of a day when we can once again sit by the crackling fire under the twilight stars of then night, when we can once again whisper sweet nothings through our drumming heartbeats, excited with passion. When we, we can be together for pain, and for joy. But I know this cannot be, for you are gone, and when I perish, I shal be gone too.

Basic Analysis

So, I figure I have blogs everywhere else, why not one more? I'll be posting poetry, reports, and of course, random thoughts, personal experiences and such. I love to learn and plan to cover a wide variety of subjects, so look forward to a menagerie of thoughts.
Don't worry, the rest of my blogs won't be this boring, I hope.
