Only one love at a time

Is it possible that we can love more than one person at a time? Some people believe that you can only love one person at a time. That loving two or more at once, simply isn't possible. I don't believe that. I believe that we can  love more than one person at a time. It doesn't even have to be about being with that person. We certainly love our children, pets, and family/friends all at once. In different ways, and in different methods, but we love them. How is that so different? You're not asking them to be with you, or trying to deny the love exists, but it is possible to love more than one person at one time. To deny that is to deny yourself. To fight it, is to fight yourself. Is it really selfish to love more than one person at a time? No, of course not. To love is to be selfless. You're not asking for something in return from them. You're not asking them to give anything up. You're simply giving them something precious about you. Your love.

How to make a cheesecake for mother's birthday.

This isn't a real recipe, but I can give it out if people would like to steal it copy and try to make it for themselves. It's a really great recipe. (I shall upload it to my other blog, where I post my cooking recipes here )  When you have the items on hand. Not mine, but best that matches mine that I could find on Photobucket from user -  erinandpayton2 Recipe follows... Ingredients: Dedication to making one cheesecake. Step 1. Figure out you need FOUR boxes of cream cheese. Hunt around in fridge and only find two. Proceed to tear apart freezer, going through many frozen pizza slices and discover one box in door, then hunt around even longer to find one more box. Check. Step 2. Go to cabinet to find graham cracker crust to determine have no graham cracker crust. Figure then to just make gingersnaps to use as gingersnap crust. Check. Step 3. Proceed to make gingersnap cookies only to discover you do not have brown sugar as is needed to make said cookies. Hunt arou

Things guys wish girls knew

Came across this online few years ago and I won't post where, or the credit since the one that posted it stated that he'd found it as well. So I don't know who come up with this, but tell me what you think... He's so cute, I thought he'd be a perfect fit! Things guys wish girls knew... 1. Guys are more emotional than you think, if they loved you at one point, it'll take them a lot longer then you think to let you go, and it hurts every second that they try. 2. Guys may be flirting around all day but before they go to sleep, they always think about the girl they truly care about. 3. Guys go crazy over a girl's smile. 4. Guys will do anything just to get you to notice them. 5. Guys hate it when you talk about your ex-boyfriend or ex love-interest. Unless they're going for the let-her-complain-to-you-and-then-have-her… method. 6. A guy who likes you wants to be the only guy you talk to. 7. Boyfriends need to be reassured often that the

When is enough silence enough

I heard today that Gilbert Gottfried got fired from Aflac because of a joke he made [on twitter] about the tragedy which happened in Japan .  I keep wondering when it will be enough. I get that there are some things you shouldn't joke about (some might not see it as a joke), you should have more tact and diplomacy, and all that. However, I just have to wonder when will it stop? Should we fear saying  anything ? Many people are losing their jobs, mainly celebrities, for making light of a  situation (terrible tragedy). But isn't laughter the best medicine? Isn't it their right to that whole free speech deal, to say what they wish? And not have everything "their" fault because of something they say? Yes, we are responsible for the words we say, and the ones we use, but we're all still human and we are responsible for how we take it and react to it. And we make plenty of mistakes, including some things we say and then think... wait... Just because s

You have been disconnected

It ocurred to me today that I must be a rare breed. Someone made a comment on how I wasn't available over the weekend which led to me asking myself... is it  that  weird that I'm not available 24/7 to everyone on the planet?  I also thought about the fact that to get me on the phone is almost an accomplishment in itself. Just ask anyone who tries.  Just ask my brother. I personally find it entertaining to listen to him rant about me not picking up the phone.  What? I left it in my room.  Common saying I have. I tend to leave it everywhere  but  with me. If it is  with me, I am reading e-books on it. Or other reads. Yes, I do have a cell phone. Yes, it generally (read: generally) is by my side. If I leave the house and don't have it I will feel naked . But I treat it much like a house phone in that I dont answer it all the time. Or the texts. (Unless I'm in one of my I'll-answer-right-this-second times.) I literally can see a text come in when the phone is in

Happy Easter

I know what you're thinking and the answer is Yes That is a dog. One quiet Easter going on here and one boy who doesn't wish to wake right now. And yes That is a very squishy comforter Chewbacca's lying on. He's not spoiled. Clearly. Happy Easter!

Promises, promises, and Droid apps!

This I promise thee... I promise to try to read and comment far more blogs than I am now... I promise I will try to blog at least every day... to every 3 days... (trying to pursue writing career and that takes top priority) I promise to try and update everyone on my writing progress other than just my FB page (see links at side to like!)... I will try not to eat as much chocolate--wait... we'll keep this realistic hmm? I promise to try and be more ladylike and not just "one of the boys" I will try [I promise and all that hoobiejoobie] and be even more inspirational! And unpredictable! And [says in spooky voice] mysterious. Woo-ha-ha-haaaa. Oh and maybe throw in more of my goofy weird girl side? K good. As long as we're clear on that. Ahhhh... and now a very sunny warm and gorgeousness day has come to an end. I mean helllooooo look at that sunset? Washington's secret y'all! Oh! And by the way, I am using blogaway for the Android on my Epic 4

Watch your head for the flying parakeets!

Look at that innocent face. Isn't he sweet?  He is his only friend... Not really, but you'd think so the amount of time he spends in front of the giganto mirror on my wall.  It's positioned right against the cage him, and Zeva (his lady), spend their time in.  This is Jax.  Sidenote: He earned his name from Ajax (yes THAT Ajax) and Jax from the show Sons of Anarchy.  You can see his precious little helmet on the back of his head? Mhm, that's why I thought of it.  And I just like the name Jax. And the Greek God's... obviously. Anyhoo, where was I? Ah yes.  . . . Jax. How do I know how the food bowl needs changing (I mean when it's empty obviously)  And yes, I know birds shouldn't just have a seed only diet. This is only the seed bowl.  He enjoys better, fresher, and healthier, food than myself.  I don't really like healthy stuff. But him and Zeva do! So we've established..

THAT girl.

Last night as I was in the midst of my nightly ritual I paused as I went to grab one of my lotions and had a moment. When did I become THAT girl? You know the one. The one who spends THAT much on face products. I was shocked [jaw drop] to find that somewhere between here and there I had become THAT girl. You know the one. The one that spends THAT much on products for her face.  When did that happen?  I'd like to go back in time and figure out what day that happened.  What an epiphany for late at night thinking hmm? Deep thoughts there... deep thoughts. I have joined that club [takes bow] so hello [waves].  Come join with me?

Lost in designer land...

Isn't she pretty?  I thought I'd play with some photos and post one of my girl... or at least one of them.  This is my princess. Always has been; always will. Sabrina. She's 9... going on human intelligence. I have just spent wayyyyyyyy (exaggerated quite a bit more) too much time going through the web, trying to find a great blog background.  This is the one that I settled on.  For now at least. I wanted to showcase more of my bubbly side and less of my (deep and gruff snobby voice) writer side.  So what do you think? Is it male and female friendly?  Showing more of an upbeat and friendly side?  Perky even?  I have been told that I am far too happy sometimes... (lost in thought) and loud... and then too quiet... and then too energetic...  But I digress... So this is the new page.  That is my girl, Sabrina, who I'm looking to alter with Photoshop in the near future.  I had my friend Kristi , help me with choosing which one.  I think I wi

Zombies walking, stinky outfits, and pets

Beware of the face. Do not let it fool you. There is a beast that lurks within... Getting down to business here, that little devil child has once more decided that her mother did not need to have any sleep last night. I was woke up to a highly stinky little body walking right under my nose... and giggling. Yes, dogs can giggle. You'll know the sound when you hear it. Luckily for momma, her bottom has begun to heal so that she might not need that adorable little outfit you can see her wearing, after a few more days. It's been an interesting time trying to keep her from scraping off the scab and having to restart the entire process over again. So once more, I had the enjoyment of being up at 2am with the rest of the wor-- Oh wait... nobody else was up with me. That's not a normal time for being up! Why is it that pets prefer to have stomach aches in the middle of the night, and sometimes decide that they must not tell you anything about it... until after the duty has been
