I've got a lot of stuff coming up. I'm going back to work because staying at home all day long is sooo not for me and lately don't feel like writing much except on actual paper. =) So this blog will by lying low for awhile.
Spring is a coming. Hope everyone enjoys it as much as I plan to.
Peace.

Happy Hump Day
-I am sooooooo completely tired of seeing endless "news" about the mother of a thousand kids. Someone is talking about it everywhere you turn. I don't want to talk about it but I do want to say this: someone or some article said something about how the public is so divided and judgmental on something that would ordinarily be none of the public's business. That's a somewhat fallicious statement. When you make yourself so accessible in such an already media frenzied world, when you take fervent, active measures to interest the public in yourself, your story, or your situation, you are making it everyone's business. And in the process, you are inviting public opinion which is generally followed by judgment-whether it be good...or bad-that's the reality. The problem is that most people only like for that to happen when it turns out good. And I KNOW that I've been a big supporter of, like, Britney Spears and people/media leaving her alone..but that's different with papparazzi and interviewlike people literally chasing her-not the other away 'round. Oh, also, when there is a question of medical ethics involved, it is definitely the public's business.
-My hair is so super gross and oily. I read somewhere that it's good to go a while without washing it. Disgust, gag me. Won't do that again. Also, I didn't shave my legs for two weeks because the hair needed to grow long enough to get a good wax and then I forgot about it for another 2 weeks? I was laying in the bath looking at my hairy legs flowing in the water and it seriously grossed me out. Weird, huh? That a man's hairy legs are fine, but a woman's not so much. Oh, the psyche stemmed from societal ideals.. Anyway, I could never have lived in the olden times. Shampoo and razors, please.
-Why do people give roses/flowers for Valentines Day? It's like, here...here is a symbolism of my love for you. Beautiful, enchanting at first-in the short lived beginning-only to wither away and drop dead within a few days, weeks. Take me to some poppy fields and I'll take a picture...if there MUST be gifts, give me the gift of an experience..or words to remember...something, anything that I don't have to watch die. Plus, I suck at changing the water. =P
-Jared got a "write up" in his school planner on Monday. It said, "inappropriate conversation-pass the word "sex". Wtf is that? Seriously? So I asked him about it and apparently another student saw the word IN the school, showed Jared, and they both said "gross". Another student told on them and the teacher punished them by not allowing them to participate in the whole of recess. Really? Are you kidding me? I was very angry when I saw that. And I really would like to talk to the teacher but I don't want to..I don't know, start anything I guess. But, really, is that how we approach the topic of sex? By punishing nine year olds for even saying the word? No wonder people are so fucked up about sex and think it's this secretive, dirty thing never to be talked about. Jesus. The things people consider private vs non private never ceases to amaze me.
-I've been waiting forever on a laptop adapter that I bought online. Come here already!! It's coming from Hong Kong. Should it take a couple of weeks??
-I was cleaning out my purse and found 3 lip glosses and 2 nail polishes. Funny, I rarely use either of them. ;P
OH! P.S.-I have completely fallen out of love with my orthodontist. I am now and forever will remain impervious to his super sexy looks and willy wonka style charm. And why? Because! There is tiny, soooo small rubber band he has given me that must hook from one of my lower teeth to my upper in a catacorner type way and that tiny, seemingly insignificant band causes the most accccching of headaches. But only upon waking up, which is weird. And I have to wear all the time except when eating. I am strong though, I can do eeet. =P
P.P.S.-Who doesn't love D.H. Lawrence. He will be the QOTD all month long!

The Friday After Last
-Jesse is gone until Monday and I'm kinda skurred here by my lonesome. Not incredibly so, but a bit. I like being alone but not alone alone. Like, I want my own alone space but to know someone is around..somewhere.. in the vicinity.
-I feel like a nice big cry. Not, like, all sad or anything..just a nice big release of emotion. Maybe a movie...I just watched Traffic. Benecio Del Toro has great eyes..beautimus.
-So, what should I do this weekend? I haven't gone out in foreva but I seriously have, like, one friend here and she's always having guy drama. It gets lame and also makes for boring converation. I know a lot of people here, but I don't know them..if ya know what I mean. So, I could go out by myself and be surrounded by a lot of people I don't ordinarly see and we will hug and drink and laugh and all secretly be in our own world of lonely while pretending a vivacious two to four hour love of one another. Or maybe that's just me. ;-)
-Are you ready for everything to look alive again? I am. Everything looks so dead around here. Well, that's because it is dead. I want green, please. Does winter take away the smells? I never smell anything....
-Ohhh, who wants to see, he's just not that into you? Me, Me, Me! LOVE Drew Barrymore and Jennifer Aniston. Why are only sad movies nominated for Oscars? You know, personal struggles, war, famine, etc, etc, etc. I was thinking about that the other day...it doesn't seem fair. I bet it takes a fair amount of acting ability to make timed laughter sound real and infectious...to make people believe in the joke, the funny. Something like Mystic River (I just watched the other day) wins six awards and really it was kinda shitty-or at the very least...same ole, same ole. Crazy creepy pedophilia turns a victim into battling demons. Neighborhood thug goes after supposed suspect of his daughter's killer...etc, etc. They didn't even explain why the brother killed the girl in the first place. Like, it was an accident..but he beat her down with a hockey stick? Why did he beat her down? Wtf was his problem? The wife of Kevin Bacon? She had her own story they forgot to tell us about? The whole story was all weird and open ended. It was good acting, and I love all the main characters. But it wasn't a good movie.
-My webmaster at 4k linked this quote from Poe-.. authors will perceive the immense advantage of giving their own manuscripts directly to the public without the expensive interference of the type-setter, and the often ruinous intervention of the publisher. All that a man of letters need do will be to pay some attention to legibility of manuscript, arrange his pages to suit himself, and stereotype them instantaneously, as arranged. He may intersperse them with his own drawings, or with anything to please his own fancy, … In the new régime the humblest will speak as often and as freely as the most exalted, and will be sure of receiving just that amount of attention which the intrinsic merit of their speeches may deserve."
How awesome that his prediction has come true...thanks be to the internet.
Have a good Friday!
