changes

Today I’ve been in a state of blah.  I’m not really sure where it’s coming from.  Generally, I’m a happy person, or at least content.  I’m easy going, not easily bothered, and it really takes a lot to upset me.  But today, I don’t know, I’ve just been argh.  This morning I woke up so angry and I didn’t even know why.  I didn’t want to get out of bed, but I didn’t want to lay there either.  I wanted to go out, but I wanted to stay at home.  I was hungry, but nothing appealed to me.  Nothing satisfied me, nothing, not even my clothes.  They actually hurt next to my skin.  Maybe it’s the weather?  Maybe I’m just ready for spring and the sun and its warm rays?  Maybe I’m ready to move forward, move on, move out, something?  Today I just really needed someone to hold me and there was no one there.  And I think what makes me angry is that I’m the one to blame for this.  It’s my fault I’m alone.  I’ve chosen to be alone…for the most part.  Overall, it’s been my decision.  But I’ve been thinking that maybe I don’t want to be alone anymore.  I don’t want to do it by myself.  I need someone to fill this emptiness, this void, this anger.  Change is hard, that I know, but I’m ready for a change.  So I’ve decided to make some changes.  I’m going to try and be more open.  I’m going to be more, care more, love more, because I’m tired of feeling alone and angry all the time.

i think i do, maybe...i'm not sure

I’m not sure where I stand. I’m not sure if I liked it or hated it.  Of course, I’m talking about Lipstick Jungle.  I’ve watched it twice, now.  I thought I was hooked during the first five minutes.  But as the show went on, I don’t know?  I kept losing interest.  The plots and storylines were expected and predictable.  I mean the scene where Kim Raver’s character, Nico is in the car, crying after having just cheated on her husband, was very Diane Lane in Unfaithful.  But, the actual scene where she cheated on her husband was HOT!  I spent an entire hour torn between love and hate: I loved it, I hated it, I loved it, I hated it.  Unfortunately, watching it a second time was of no significant help.  Perhaps, I expected too much?  Maybe I expected/demanded a level of greatness that was impossible to fulfill?  No, I don’t think that was it.
 At the beginning, I truly liked Brooke Shields Character, Wendy.  She was fun, smart, sexy, and talented.  She was a wife, a mother, and a top executive to boot.  Her character’s dialogue started off strong and sharp and fun, but gradually lost its power.  It became boring and humdrum.  The writers seemed to be trying too hard.  There were certain lines where you just knew her character would never say things like that.  Then there was Kim Raver’s character, Nico.  I’ll be honest; I was surprised she was cast in this role.  Though, I really don’t know much about her.  I know she was on that show with the cops and fire fighters a few years ago, but other than that, I know very little.  And I actually like that.  I like that I don’t have a defined impression of her.  I really only hated the car scene of hers.  I wish there would have been more background information on her marriage at the beginning of the episode.  It would have made the affair more understandable.  Other than that, I liked her character.  But my favorite, by far, was Lindsay Price’s character, Victory Ford (You can’t just say, Victory.  You have to say, Victory Ford, you just have to).  I have loved Lindsay since she played, Janet Sosna, Steve’s girlfriend/wife on the last three seasons of Beverly Hills 90210.  I just love her.  And I love her character, Victory Ford!  She’s sarcastic, witty, funny, sexy, smart and has a wardrobe to die for.  Her character is by far, the most fun and entertaining to watch.  And is why I will be tuning in again, Thursday at 10pm.  Hopefully, after this episode I will know whether I enjoy it or not.  I think I do, maybe…I’m not sure.

*Thank God the writers strike is over.  Now I can finally watch new episodes of 30 Rock and Pushing Daisies!

I need to keep better track of my bank account and online purchases

Apparently, two weeks ago some jerk stole my bank card number over the internet and charged $150.00 to "Local Internet Services" and I'm just finding out about it...WTF?!

mazie rae

Say hello to, Mazie Rae!  My sister, Tara received her as a gift for Christmas.  I just want to squeeze her, and love her, and eat her, and kidnap her and bring her home to live with me.  She gets so excited every time you walk into the room she pees all over herself.  It's so cute, yet so disgusting.

a little diddy about chris and brooke

Recently, my BFF, Chris and I, do to circumstances beyond our control, have not been able to hang out.  Basically, I’ve been busy traveling the world; MN, NY and KY.  I consider MN another country for weather alone.  Here in WV it has been cold, you know, 65 degrees (Global warming, I shake my left fist at you).  While in MN it’s been freaking Antarctica , the high being -7.  And Chris, well, he’s been busy working and making a baby with his wife, the Amazing Stephanie.  So, in a desperate attempt to bridge our friendship gap, we decided to write a song together.  It goes a little something like this…enjoy.


“Title yet to be determined”

1st verse: Chris
Lonesome and tipsy;
I’m lonesome and drunk.
My best friend ain’t with me
To talk about stuff
If she can’t get here
Before last call is done
I’ll keep nursin’ this warm beer
‘Till I fall over some.

2nd verse: Brooke
I'm sober and tired;
I'm running behind.
If this cab doesn't hurry
I'm gonna lose my mind.
My best friend’s at the bar,
Alone and drunk.
If I don't get there soon
I'll never catch up.

3rd Verse: Chris
I'm fuzzy and bleary
the room's starting to spin.
The feeling's so bleak
I'd drink tonic and gin.
Outside it's been snowing,
and it's freezing the roads.
If my best friend don't get here
my stomach explodes.

4th verse: Brooke
Testy and angry;
I’m seething to the brim.
I’ll be pissed when I get there
if there’s a cover to get in.
I’ll try calling his cell,
let him know I’m running late.
He’ll forgive me, no matter
Cause I’m his best mate.
