i know it's weak but it's still a hurricane! and people seems to be freaking out around here on the coast. so just in the possibility that things do not go as planned... i'm cutting my work day short and heading home to hunker down. it is always best to be prepared than to the be sorry.

lost.

by JameSSpicer

you know that feeling you get in your stomach when you have to do something you dread or you find yourself in a very uncomfortable situation and want to remove yourself as soon as possible? nervous. anxious. confused.

i have it. it's gross. i want it to go away. i am not quite sure how to do that.

LitterBug.

while kickn' it with sister no. 2, i saw one of the "Don't Mess With Texas" campaign on the boob tube.  you get to pick one bag out of four designs for FREE to help with any vehicular trash that may accumulate. Check it out and get your own!

found!

i thought i lost this while i was in NYC, but no! my mother picked it up thinking it was hers... i'm just stoked i don't have to buy another one. now i can finally get around to posting the rest of the New York pictures.

found!

maybe i can fix her up... get a basket... and take her for a ride on the beach!

i said good day!

sometime in the first few days at this job, i drew this little guy to make me smile every morning when i sat down at my desk because i dreaded this place so so very much. he's stuck with me... through the boredom, the tears, the laughs and the annoying coworkers who would ask such stupid questions about him. {doesn't everyone have a work buddy? jeez.} he's been my monday to friday, 8am to 5pm rock. and now it's time for he and i to hit the road.

the personal files have been loaded to my flash drive, all my cookies have been deleted, the speakers and headphones are wrapped up, my extra stash of snacks have be thrown to the scavengers, i've hidden my favorite pens in my purse, trashed all the paperwork covering my work surface, my watering hole has been disassembled, and all my paper goodies are stashed away in my satchel. the desk is clean. the office is quiet. and bitches... i'm outta here!!!

tallyho armstrong mccall...tallyho!

strange.

very strange how two grown men take to NKOTB so easily.

censored.

by sweetheartsinner

when i started sharing this blog with some of the people in my life, i told myself i could not censor what i wrote. since then, the content has changed for the most part, which i do not mind one bit, and i find myself placating what i want to say here. i am annoyed at myself for letting others dictate my own censorship of my own space. i tread lightly because i don't want to hurt others. i hold back because things can be misconstrued. but i'm done contemplating the "what ifs". the majority of the randomness and thoughts i put here is my own stream of conciseness. just words.

i hate that i said 'just words' now. i know that words are powerful. i have been naive and lived by the words some people have told me. trusted them. i've put my faith in those words. but what i have learned is that Action is what i must live by. people must show me what they mean and how they feel. i know not all are capable of that but then maybe those people are meant for me. but i need people to SHOW me their character. i need to see it. i do not need to hear words about it.

and she WALKED away.

sister no. 2 was in an accident a little less than two weeks ago. she literally crawled her way out the window and walked away... a little dazed and a little confused but she was walking. holy hell!

10+ years.

Lynn Wedding 2000

while sitting in the ballroom of the Hotel Galvez this weekend, watching my lovely friend, Matter, dance the night away with her new groom, i realized that my oldest friend, emily, and i have been in that very same ballroom once, twice... maybe even three times before. i thumbed through some pictures this morning and found a picture of she and i that was taken almost 10 years ago in that very same ballroom. though em and i have been friends since 1993, the past 10 years of our lives have been a steadfast test of our friendship... i think we're doing pretty well.
