Politics in a nutshell...

Democrats want to be your mommy and wipe your butt and make sure you eat your vegetables.

Republicans want to be your daddy and tell you how you should behave.

Libertarians expect you to act like an adult.

-I love this!! While it's funny, I also believe it's pretty damn accurate for a huge sweeping generalization. I wish I knew where I found this, so I could give the proper credit; but I apparently saved it over a year ago and found it this morning while cleaning out some files.

Blah...

I wish I had something good to write about, but I don't. Things in my life are yet again, hectic, confusing, and painful. I don't think the world wants to hear about my broken heart or my woe is me crap, so until I can think of anything else there won't be any new posts from the pink pooch.

Newest bag on my ever growing wishlist...

It's flippin adorable!

I gotta say, I love today's tidbit of knowledge...

Your Daily Tarot Reading:
The Nine of Wands card suggests that my power today lies in remarkable gratitude. I am not a victim. There are no lost causes. "I've been there, done that, and know suffering -- but it's all good." I'm still standing. "Can't touch this." Self-pity is an excuse to do nothing. To appeal to sympathy for pity's sake is to seek affirmation of the choice to do nothing. I am empowered by the spirit and support of meaningful experience and I transform with silent resilience.

Jealousy

I read many different blogs, but there is one that always seems to make those little tinges of jealousy creep in...Nina's blog, Ornamental is by far my favorite. Her newest post is filled with beautiful pictures, beautiful words, and one kick ass pair of boots that I must find! I promise you, you'll love reading about her artistic and adventurous life, even if it makes you a little jealous. ;0)

M.I.A (NOT to be confused w/ Mia the über cute pooch)

It's been quite a long while since I've posted anything on here, and I apologize to my 1 reader out there in cyberspace! Things have been very busy with work, home, school, art, new dog, etc... But I have been trying to get myself more organized, so I'll have enough time in a day to get all of the things I need and want to do completed, without bypassing those pesky hours needed for sleep. I have quite a few topics/ideas to write about, and once I get all of the thoughts unscrambled and cohesive, I'll write them down for all to read. Be back soon! Promise.

Thought to ponder

I had this little gem in one of my daily e-mails this morning...

"There is nothing more romantically isolating than self-righteous
indignation, blind trust, demanding proof of love, a victim mentality, jealousy or a desire for vengeance, unless it is the inability to get the connection between your convictions, words or behavior and the natural consequences. You get what you give. "
