Hear This

September 9, 2011 // Posted in Living, People, Sexuality, Thoughts (Tags: ) |  Comments Off

A girl I know posted this on her Facebook wall:

“I might not be someone’s first choice, but I’m a great choice.” which is true, she is a great person!

“I may not be rich, but I am valuable.” Again, true. Have you seen that post going around about how you might be de-valuing yourself and marking down your “price” because of low self esteem? That’s a good one, too.

“I don’t pretend to be someone that I’m not because I’m pretty great at being ME.” Ya know, almost everyone pretends to be someone they are not on the first couple of dates. They shine their shoes and carefully choose their clothes – even coordinating underwear, shave their legs (girls) or face (guys, I hope), fuss over their hair and all – and then after the deal is sealed they shower less, toss the makeup, wear XXL teeshirts and sweatpants and get fat. Its human nature and I fight that instinct every day.

“I might not be perfect, but I don’t need to be. Take me as I am, or watch me as I walk away.” Exactly.

No Phone Books

If anyone knows how to get word to the publisher of the Yellow Pages and local phone books that keep showing up on my porch or in my driveway, please let me know. I do not use these books and I don’t like the idea that so much paper, gasoline and manpower is wasted producing these monsters that go right into the trash and clogs up the landfills.

I use the internet to find phone numbers and addresses. The only problem that I have is trying to the cell phone numbers of people. I wish there was a way to get cell phone numbers, but when people still have to pay for each minute their phone is in use, I can understand them not wanting to waste minutes on nuisance calls.

Spring Forward – Fall Back

September 29, 2010 // Posted in Future, Living, Thoughts (Tags: , , , , ) |  Comments Off

Daylight Savings will be coming to an end soon, I always dread the time changes that we are forced to par take in twice a year. There are so many things that are a hassle when it comes to changing all of our time pieces and I know that I’m not the only one that cringes when we are forced to comply with a law that was put into place so very long ago. I always feel sorry for the folks that are working in stores that carry a large amount of clocks and watches, they must spend hours each time we need to either spring forward or fall back, that must really suck.

Kelly Osbourne

It is good to see how Kelly Osbourne has matured and blossomed nicely. She is busy making appearances all over the television these days promoting “Dancing with The Stars” which is her new passion. The Osbourne’s are a very different and very off the wall type of family, but they seem to keep us coming back for more. Keep up the good work Kelly and good luck.

Uncle Sam Needs You

I was reading an article about the 4th of July. It had many interesting facts about the 4th of July, most of them I knew about but I did learn a few things that were interesting. The one that I found of interest was that in 1843, the U.S. government set up an account to accept gifts from people wishing to express their patriotism. These days, the money is directed to pay down the debt. In 2009, people sent $3,063,057.05. So far this year they have sent in $2,451,266.91. That is a lot of money that our good people are sending in, wouldn’t you say?
