I feel all anxiety and mad and rage. Those stupid poll things on facebook, well the one going around about "do you support gay rights"
When I see people on my friends list (or even those not on my friends list) vote "No" for "should gays have equal rights?" it BOILS MY BLOOD!!!!!!!!
It makes me so mad, and sad, and ANGRY so so so angry and sad for their ignorance, and MAD at their stupidity. It makes me mad when people think that ANY certain people shouldn't have equal rights (like women, fat people, black people etc.) but man, the gay rights thing really gets me. How could you not think a person should be treated equally just because they are attracted to one sex or the other?? WHO FUCKING CARES?!?! Worry about your own god damn life? People should be able to be with who they want to be with without being hated on. It really blows my mind how ignorant some people can be...especially where I live now. I swear people are fucking STUPID here when it comes to tolerance. Unless you are white and catholic, you will be discriminated against. I can't understand how people can be so hateful...it is so sad.
What if your beloved son, daughter, grandchild turned out to be gay? Would you disown them (and I know some people would, and it breaks my heart)Would you want people like yourself hating them and thinking they shouldnt have the same rights as everyone else??
Bleghhhh I can't even write about this anymore, it's so upsetting
Man....
The Corn Is Safe
Man it sounds windy today. It's nice and sunny but only 35 right now. I don't think it's supposed to get too much warmer today. Tomorrow is supposed to be pretty good though...53 I believe. I can't wait until it's consistently in the 60's...yessssss.
I've been riding my bike with Savannah almost everyday now, and my body is feeling it....all winter being sedentary is taking its toll on me lol. Too bad I don't have the willpower to go jogging or something...I is the lazy.
I'm houngry. Tonight we are going to have cheese lasagna with italian sausage links and garlic bread. I should have laid out some chicken because ive been wanting to make this recipe from Giada for awhile...
http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/giada-de-laurentiis/grilled-chicken-and-avocado-napoleons-recipe/index.html
I didn't get the dang avocado though, and i'm going to use spring greens instead of spinach. I bought this huge container of organic spring greens (not because i'm an organic nut, but it was a better value) I don't want that stuff to go bad. I always buy veggies and crap tht end up going bad before I eat them because we eat out soooo much. We always say we aren't gonna eat out, besides once a week, but never stick with it.
I hope there is a Midnight Showing of Scream 4...man i'm so excited. I guess no big deal if there isn't...actually now that I think of it, maybe I don't want to go to a midnight showing because the day it comes out is me and don's 6 year anniversary, and I want to make a day of it! Crazy that it's been 6 years now.
Anyhoo thats about all i have to say for now.
I'd be a lot cooler if you did...
Today was pretty nice. It was 48 or so, but felt much warmer. Savannah, Georgia and myself went for a bike ride and played with our new doll "Black Swan" She hasn't lost any limbs....yet. It's all cloudy now, and I think it is supposed to rain tonite. I think I will watch Halloween 2 or Halloween 4.
Me and Don are gonna go to Texas Road House tonite...I did the call ahead seating and it was 90-100 minutes...yowza. You know how it is when a new place opens though. We should get in around 8:30.
blehhh I already dont feel like writing anymore
10 Things I Miss About Missouri
1. Lightning Bugs
2. The lack of blatant racism (at least where i lived...i'm sure other parts of MO are worse than where i live now)
3. The smell of honeysuckle in the air
4. Humid summer nights
3. BBQ
6. The variety of shopping and dining
7. Feeling the air change from hot to cool, and the smell when you drive past the river
8. Lighting fireworks that arent fountains
9. The weather
10. My family
Clive Hockstatter
Don is sick, with what I think may be the flu. He is throwing up, has chills, feels like he has a fever, and is achey. He was miserable all day...around 8 he finally ate a little bit and was able to keep it down, and has been sleeping for a few hours. Hopefully this is just a 24 hour bug. Sucky thing is....i'm next. Thats how it goes. It sucks that he had to get sick now, right before basketball which he was looking forward to =(
Hüsker is sitting here looking at me...wanting food no doubt...he takes after his mama lol. The vet said that we should start measuring out his food and feeind him 1/4c. twice daily. Well I started doing that, and no shit...he would meow almost constantly out of hunger...all the time, day and night SCREAMING for food. Me and Don decided yesterday that he would go back to his normal food schedule which is a little less than 1/2c. twice daily. He isnt a normal sized cat...he's huge...as in very tall with big paws...he needs his food.
I got some clip in feather extensions yesterday. I was going to get some beads and a hook tool so i could apply my own and whatnot, but Sarah at Sally's told me that Regis is doing them now, so I went there to see what they had to offer, and they did bonded ones OR clip ins, so the nice lady laid all of them out for me so i could look through them, and I ended up going with a clip in one that is made up of 3 yellow and black grizzly feathers and a bright blue feather...it's super cute. I also made my own out of 2 brownish feathers and a clip. I think I want a couple more, but they're kind of expensive. It's $18 for a bonded one, and $13 for a short clip in and $20 for a long clip in. There is this girl on etsy who does AWESOME colour combos, and I really want one of hers, but they will be too long and she doesnt do clip ins. I had originally intended to get them bonded in anyways, but i kinda like the idea of clip in so I can interchange them depending on my makeup/clothing. Maybe i'll go back to Regis and look again for more.
I'm kinda houngry for meatloaf or french toast or something. I did not eat good today...I had a sammich and cheetos, some spoonfuls of the homemade butterscotch i made the other day, a fruit cup, and some noodles and broth...and chocolate covered strawberries...blegh just thinking about all that junk grosses me out.
I'm so jealous of KC tomorrow...they're gonna get 76 degrees...its only supposed to get up to 43 tomorrow here. The 10 day forecast only has a high of 45 on it...I wanna see some mid 50's at the very least. I want it to be warm so I can go take some pics with my old camera. Don bought me the correct discs for it for Christmas, and now it's like a whole new camera because it behaves the way its supposed to, so Mandi, we will have to think up a couple of photo shoots or something when it gets warmer!
Ok i think thats about all that is in my brain for now.
Didn't I blow your mind this time?
Last nite Mandi, and I were coming home from Target, and noticed a commotion of cop cars and fire trucks and spotlights going on, on a side street. We wondered what was going on, but didn't find anything out that nite. Well this morning Don had told me that a well known guy around here, was hit and killed. He grew up here and lived here his whole life. He was blind, and sang in the church choir. It's really sad. Especially sad, since (i think...im not sure) that it may have been a hit and run. WHO DOES THAT?
I feel like such a bum today. I need to clean my house. I was planning on cleaning my kitchen a few minutes ago, but opened my dishwasher to put the dishes away, and noticed that the little compartment had only partially opened up, and the dishwasher tablet was stuck gooey to the inside and hadn't released....like so many times before. The top rack is also falling down and unhinged from the roller, and I don't know how to fix it. The little begs on the bottom rack are rusting off as well. I think it's almost time for a new dishwasher. A lot of the times it doesn't even get the dishes clean....very irritating.
After I get the kitchen and some of the house clean, i'm going to make my pimento cheese. I can't wait to taste it again...its been a loooong time. I don't think i've had it since I was 11 or maybe even younger. They surprisingly sell it up here, but after looking at the ingredient list, I was VERY put off, and decided to make it myself since there are only a few ingredients.
After a year of not caring about it, and not wanting it at all, I finally broke down yesterday and bought the Urban Decay Naked Palette.![]()
![]()
I'm glad I waited because it used to have a double ended eyeliner instead of the brush, and I would MUCH rather have the brush (not that I need anymore makeup brushes)The price was pretty steep at $48, but I wanted it reeeally bad, and then if I want something that bad, and don't get it, i'll get really bad anxiety and my mind wont turn off, and i'll just keep thinking about it and thinking about it.
Me and Mandi both got these new m&m's last nite. The are m&m's Premiums Chocolate Trio. They have a new "soft shimmering shell" It's a marbled looking shimmery purple shell, and its soft....very super thin layer of coating. Anyhoo its dark chocolate, white chocolate, and then a milk chocolate center. They are bigger than normal m&m's and they are DELICIOUS!!!!
anyhoo thats all i have to say
Poor Japan
So yeah...Japan got hit with an 8.9 magnitude earthquake and then a tsunami hit and just devastated everywhere. 200-300 people are already dead. The tsunami is also supposed to hit Hawaii, Oregon, California, and Washington. Crazy...I hope it doesn't do much more damage. The footage of it hitting Japan is nuts...it's so sad. It's the 7th largest earthquake EVER RECORDED.
I've been up since like 5:30am...wtf right? Don came in to tell me what pick he got for fantasy baseball (6th)and I guess I just wasn't tired anymore, so I got up. Now i'm starving. Whenever I get up too early I get so hungry that I actually get extremely nauseous...I feel like im gonna hurl.
It's gonna finally start warming up (not much) but it's a start. Supposed to get up to 40 today, and then next week for 3 days it will be in the upper 40's. I can't wait for this dang snow to melt...I'm sick of seeing all the cold dirty white.
I'm gonna make some Pimento Cheese Spread today. I haven't had it since I was little, but we used to get it all the time when I went fishing with my dad.
Well thats all i have to say for now
AWWWW YOU'RE GONNA HURT!!
Seeing good ol' Mego post a blog made me think of mine, and how I have been ultra neglecting it. I should start posting again, so I will, but who knows how long it will last.
So it's 2011 now...yesterday would have been my grammas 76th birthday. Also, in 7 days it will be the 2 year anniversary of her death =( It doesnt seem like it's been that long. It sucks.
I had a split in my thumb nail so i had to clip it, and decided for funsies to clip and file both thumbnails into points lol.
Christmas was good...I got everything I wanted. My SodaStream, giftcards, Halloween 5 poster and soundtrack. A print of a painting by my favorite artist Rene Magritte, new shoes, discs for my old camera, new work bowl for my food processor because my other one broke, a pillow pet...penguin, snow globe, singamajigs...uhh im sure theres more but i cant think of what.
I am SOOO ready for it to be warm again, but we have soooo long until it is. It doesnt start to get WARM here till about May. Sure, we'll have a few stray days where it gets to be in hte upper 60's-70's but it doesnt get consistently warm unti May...blegh. I would love if it was 70 right now...im READY. Anyhoo thats all thats on my mind right now
I saw a werewolf drinkin a pina colada at Trader Vicks
I havent written in awhile. Not a whole lot going on...i'm pretty tired so this probably won't be too in depth. Me and Don went to the midnite premiere of the Nightmare on Elm St. remake...it was decent. Im sure it was better for people who arent huge fans of the original series. It was scary though...oof the way Freddy looked...frightening.
Emilys Baptism is Sunday...i'm not going because that churchy stuff creeps me out and makes me super uncomfortable...thats what I get for worshiping Satan...joking...i dont really worship Satan. Anyhoo me and Jeanette were on a hunt for an outfit for her, so we ended up getting new white capris and a nice white blazer, and some yellow sandals like the white ones I have that I have to wear to break them in.
I made a nice haul on nail polish today...it was the last day of B2G1 at Sallys...I got 4 nail polishes and 3 stripe rite nail art thingys. I also bought a new pair of jeans at old navy because yesterday I ripped the ass out of my favorite pair. I had some of a giftcard to use up, so I only ended up paying $3 for the jeans.
Thats about all i have to say for now...maybe i'll keep up with this a little bit better
Easter Pics + other random ones
These were from a few weeks ago...
I dont know why im making such a stupid face...i think i was saying something
this was from last nite when I transformed magically into a bitter elderly Ukrainian woman

So Easter was a couple of days ago. Had a good time...did the usual, except NO ONE ATE ANY OF MY FREAKING CAKEEEE that i slaved over lol. It wasnt the greatest...I wonder if it was the recipe or what. We had a bonfire that nite which was nice...first one of the year. I did get sick though =( I dunno with what exactly but that nite i had a fever and headache and then sore throat, and yesterday slight fever and sore throat...today I feel good, but with a sliiiiiiight sore throat and its kinda itchy but not much. Im thinking by tomorrow i'll be fine. I hate being sick..it blows.
Anyhoo, i'm too lazy to put up easter pics right now, but i'll get on it eventually.
