RED) — Just A Thought">Join (RED) — Just A Thought

I’m a big sup­porter of the (RED) cam­paign.
And not just ’cause the t-shirts are pretty freakin’ awe­some.
That’s all.

If you don’t know what (RED) is, here’s some info from their web­site joinred.com

(RED) is a sim­ple idea that brings together our power as peo­ple who buy, with our power as peo­ple who care.

When you buy (PRODUCT) RED™ items, up to 50% […]

I Wish I Could…

Record my brain. That way when I have a kick ass dream-that inspires a brand new story I don’t have to get out of bed in the mid­dle of the night.

I could just lay there and nar­rate silently what I wanted to get out of my head so as I don’t for­get it. It’s while I’m lay­ing there half asleep when my ideas […]

Stardust

Every atom in your body came from a star that exploded.
And the atoms in you left hand prob­a­bly came from a dif­fer­ent star than your right hand.
It really is the most poetic thing I know about physics.
You are all star­dust.
All the things that mat­ter for evo­lu­tion and for life weren’t cre­ated at the begin­ning of time. They were […]

Turn Someone’s Life Around

A friend who also hap­pens to be a soror­ity sis­ter (which makes her even more awe­some) posted on her face­book tonight that she gave a ride to an expec­tant mother nine months along. She is that sort of per­son, always will­ing to lend a help­ing hand. If there were more peo­ple like her I think our world would be much nicer.

Some­time […]

Soul Pieces

Always remem­ber, only your heart can be bro­ken.
Your soul and all its pieces, are immutable and unchange­able,
and most impor­tantly impos­si­ble to destroy.

I didn’t write that. I’m not sure who did, I read it some­where once and wrote it down. Tonight, I felt like shar­ing it. I don’t know if it’s because I’m sit­ting here watching […]

Ferris Wheel

I haven’t rode on a Fer­ris Wheel in quite some time. I fully intend to rem­edy that the next chance I get.

There is some­thing mag­i­cal about Fer­ris Wheels. You climb into this col­or­ful car­riage and it whisks you off into the sky where you see things you wouldn’t nor­mally get the chance to with your feet firmly planted on […]

Birthday-Rain

It’s rain­ing. Today is my birth­day. I love rainy days when I don’t have any­thing out of doors planned. The rain is a perfect gift.

Rain on your birth­day is […]

Laundry O’ My!

Laun­dry is the bane of my exis­tence. Okay, I may be a tad dra­matic but I kid you not-I’d rather clean my bath­room then fold and put away laun­dry. I real­ize that the washer and dryer do all of the work I don’t mind sort­ing and the actual wash­ing of the laun­dry because of that. I also know that it could be […]

do something you’ve never done

Came across this the other day and I thought it rather inspi­ra­tional and so I am shar­ing it with you all.
All my boys are sound asleep. The hubs is snor­ing so loud I wouldn’t be sur­prised if my neigh­bor could hear him.
I should feel tired.
I know I’m tired.
I am how­ever, wide awake.
I’m going to unplug and read for a bit while I reflect on […]

Toothbrush

Yes­ter­day I pur­chased these tooth­brushes for my son. I also got some for the hubs and I. When my son asked a very thought pro­vok­ing question.

How come you don’t have cool pic­tures on your toothbrush?”

Why don’t adult tooth­brushes come with cool graphic designs?

I know I’d dig one with some flow­ers or espe­cially a fleur de lis.

Mental-Music

You know how when a song gets stuck in your head it tends to stay there for a while. Today-all day, I’ve had two songs stuck in my head. A mash-up of sorts and no two songs could be com­pletely different.

Lady Gaga’s “Ale­jan­dro” & The Theme Song to the Dis­ney Car­toon Phineas and Ferb

Here’s a peek into my mental-music.

There’s 104 days of sum­mer vaca­tion
She hides true love.
En su bol­sillo
And school comes along just to end it
So the annual prob­lem for our gen­er­a­tion
Is find­ing a good way to spend it
She’s got a halo ’round her fin­ger.
Around you.
Don’t say my name, don’t say my name Alejandro…MOOOOM, Phineas and Ferb are mak­ing a title sequence!

Well, there you have it folks. A peek inside my brain. Con­tinue read­ing Mental-Music

Lemonhead Tinkering

I have so much to do. Instead I’m sit­ting here munch­ing on lemon heads and tin­ker­ing about on the web. I need to give myself a swift kick in the ass but unfor­tu­nately my knees don’t bend backwards.

I’ve also got a killer sore throat a runny nose, and my ears are itch­ing. I think it’s aller­gies or per­haps a side effect of […]

Dream Crusher Still Splat

I real­ize my posts have been low on the con­tent for a lit­tle while now. My writ­ing in gen­eral has been off kil­ter (lit­er­ally too-Vertigo’Round any­one?) I’ve been pre­oc­cu­pied with other things lately and writ­ing, which is usu­ally my escape has been put on the back burner. I’m work­ing at work­ing on get­ting more me put back […]

Just Dance Talent Search

Yes­ter­day I found out that Just Dance (the danc­ing video game) was host­ing a tal­ent search. The win­ner will get to be fea­tured on their next video game and win a trip to Paris!

I couldn’t help myself. I had to enter.

I thought I may pass out after­ward as I’ve still got a bit of ver­tigo but you know I don’t need much of an any […]

I Believe in Manicures

I stum­bled upon this quote this after­noon quite serendip­i­tously (if you read my blog reg­u­larly, you know how much I love serendip­ity) and I liked it quite a lot. I also found the fol­low­ing slightly dif­fer­ent quote attrib­uted to Audrey Hep­burn. It basi­cally sums up me. Not all of me of course, but a pretty big chunk of me.

I believe in manicures. […]

Everything Leaves a Mark

Every­thing leaves a mark. It’s true. The sim­plest of acts can cause an indeli­ble mark on our own lives or on some­one else. Chances are we won’t even real­ize it-the marks that get left on our lives or those that we leave on oth­ers. Today I’m think­ing about the marks we do notice. Some­times some­thing so amazing […]

I'm-a Dork!

As promised proof pos­i­tive of my absolute and irrev­o­ca­ble dork-dom!

To bet­ter under­stand the birth of this short video clip check out this vlog.

Oh, and in case you were wondering…

Yes. This is how I act 95% of the time.

Then there’s this…me ear­lier. I posted it to […]

Dragon Slayer

Today I found myself once again the get­ter of bugs, chaser of flies, and slayer of dragons.

Big gnarley ones with stinky fiery breath that jump out of clos­ets and chase you around in their under­wear, caus­ing us to squirm into spaces much to small for our bod­ies like beneath a fairy’s bed, or inside a robin’s egg. Somehow-at the […]
