Choices? ..What? ..More Choices?

Well thanks to those of you who left comments on my last post, that was super!! As someone said, "Follow truth and you won't go wrong. It may hurt sometimes but in the end it is the best."-Guess what! You're quotable!! And right. It did hurt, but it was for the best.. I didn't really let it go right away, and that proved to me that it really was for the best. But as of now life is good, I'm pretty well healthy..for ONCE in my life!! It's amazing!!


This snow, however.. Not so amazing anymore.. I love snow, and it was awsome when it got here...I loved the whole "snow day" idea...but it's getting old. Let's get back to good old west coast rain shall we?(This cold is NOT doing nice things to my hair!! lol)


So many of you have been telling me in the last little while,(or some of you, a long while..)to follow what God is showing me to do. Well.. I've realized.. with someone special's help, that yes, I am incredibly stubborn, and make stupid mistakes over and over again, but it's because I CHOOSE to be stubborn, and I CHOOSE to make these mistakes, then I blame it on stubbornness, because I don't take the responsibility for my actions..because it's tough to realize that you've done something incredibly stupid(maybe more than once), and say; I just wanted to. You know? I guess, yeah, blaming my mistakes on a human characteristic works wonders...but in reality, IT WON'T WORK! We.. (yeah, not just me, you too!) ..Need to make better choices!! What a concept!! -CHOICES!..I've just kind of realized..we have them!! Yahoo..this is awsome!

So.. I'm pretty well done.. But I've decided to give a special mention; Werner! Your working my "word of the day" into your comments? Incredibly cool!! As for today's?? ...

Disappearing Act? ...not so cool...

Alright, it's been a while since my last post, and not to make excuses or anything, but I did acctually come on and write up some stuff...clicked on the button to publish...and it DISAPPEARED!! -Let me tell you - I was NOT a happy girl! So here I am...back...typing, and let's hope the site doesn't crap out on me again.

Okay. So I'm in a bit of a tough situation right now. I don't exactly what to do...but when do I ever know what to do? I don't know wether to follow my head or my heart...they're both telling me complete opposites...or so I thought. Now my head is leaning a little towards my heart's decision...but is that because I want it to? Hhmmm.... I know what the "smart" thing to do would be.. But do I always need to do the smart thing? I mean, I'm not saying I never do anything stupid..I do plenty of stupid things, but for the big decisions, I usually stick to the safe, or smart thing. Time to change that? Who knows.

Lately I've become pretty materialistic...as we all are - don't try and tell me you're not materialistic..come on, live without your cell phone? or even home phone? Computer!? I mean honestly...who needs like 15 pairs of shoes...and STILL wants more!?(*erm**Not talking about myself**erm*)





Anyhow... I think that's all for now.
I SHALL RETURN!

TODAY'S WORD: dematerialize [dee-muh-teer-ee-uh-lahyz]
To deprive of or lose apparent physical substance; make or become immaterial: Mirrors have the effect of dematerializing a wall. The dry ice seemed to dematerialize as it sublimated.

A Bit of Nothingness-ish...

Alright, well it seemed like it was time for a new post! However, there's not a whole lot new with me right now, I haven't left my house...or my bed/couch for that matter, in quite a while!-Well other than to come to the computer the odd time.

So...since I've been sick, I've been watching a lot of TV...so I'd like to know...what is your favorite TV show?? (Yes, I want everyone's answer via comment!!) Mine? Well most of you know, I'm pretty well obsessed with CSI!!

Thanks to all of you who have sent me pictures for Sarah. They're all going in a collage so she can see that we're thinking about her.

First Complaint? What!?


Okay, so I got my first complaint! ..."It's been the same for too long." ...Subtle hint to add a post? Okay, here goes...My immune system seems to be in hibernation lately.<- I wonder if I spelled that right...but today, I don't really care. Anyways, back to the origional statement...hibernations...I'd like to go into one...sleep for a whole freaking season!? That would be amazing!! Could you imagine? Think of all the dreaming you could do...but then again you'd probably be a little disapointed that you missed out on a good chunk of the year. Maybe I don't want to hibernate...at least not for as long as bears do. Sometimes I think it would be nice just to go to sleep for a really long time, then when I wake up everything will be peachy. ....Unfortunately that won't happen because I've tried that theory. Not exactly sleeping for a long time...just staying away from everything and everyone...nothing goes away...it stays, and people don't forget very easily. As for my immune system trying it out? AAAAARRGGHH!! Seriously! ...There's always something wrong with me lately...Maybe sicknesses should go into hibernation!! Yes...like...FOREVER!?
TODAY'S WORD: torpidity [tawr-pid]

It's Already Tomorrow!!

So it's November 1st! Hope everyone's Halloween rocked!! I love getting dressed up!! It's so much fun!! I never end up getting a costume until last minute though, so next year I've decided...at LEAST a week early I'm gonna have it all set!! No more last minute throw-togethers! Onto a completely different topic, I was just sitting here, thinking about what was going to come out of my fingers and onto the screen next, and my screensaver came on. It's just one of those normal ones, you know, with all the lines that just kinda move everywhere? It's kind of mesmerising. Oh! And back to Halloween! I've always had this fear of fireworks..not the ones that you go to at Sidney Days and stuff...not the big ones, but the type that people set off in their back yards. I've always been absolutely terrified. Last new years a guy I know decided to show me how to set a tiny little one off...and I just about lost it! But this year...oh yes, this year, I was hanging out with some friends and we set off big ones!! It was super fun!! ...Unfortunately the police didn't think they were so fun so we lost 'em, but whatever, it was fun while it lasted. Well...that's going to have to be all for now, sorry this was a little pointless...but there's not a whole lot for me to write about right now. See ya!

There won't be a word today, it will be a quote...
