About Me

I'm passionate about everything, and I do everything with passion. I am real, plain and simple. I love everyone. I forgive, and then forgive again... I'm always busy and prefer it that way. I go to the gym almost everyday because I want to, not because I'm on a diet or something. I want to give my kids everything, but I want them to learn how to be responsible and accountable. I have to drink a cup of coffee every morning. I love the Sunday paper. I love all kinds of music, and music is an important part of my life, but I don't play an instrument nor do I sing (thank goodness, huh!). I read books all the time, sometimes 3 at once or 1 a day...no matter the topic, or length. I love to read about human experiences. I believe life should be lived by experiences, not weeks or days or hours. I am genuine and carefree, but I always pay my bills on time. I love to cook, nothing makes me happier than watching people enjoy something I cook. Fall is my favorite season. I love to travel, and dislike staying home. And I am taking my life where I want it to go. And that's the basics "about me".

Can YOU navigate a four-way stop?

The four-way stop.  It's killing me.  Everyday I go through 2 four-way stops...twice.  I don't mind four way stops, they are not a challenge for me, but for the people of San Diego they...

My brain pattern

I'm bored and goofing off on the blogthings site, and I am surprised how accurate this crap can seem.  Or maybe I just hope I am like these things say, therefore I say "Right on...exactly!" Your ...

Still kickin' it...

The habit, that is.  And I'm good....SOOO good!  I am back at the gym, and I feel great.  Not to mention I'm so damn proud of myself.  Yep, I said it, I'm proud of myself.  I ...

Day 1

It's almost been 24 hours now, and I haven't wanted to go crazy.  It's a miracle.  Today has been surprisingly easy, and I am hoping it stays that way.  I haven't gotten overly angry......

I quit smoking

Yes, I did.  Today.  I just decided not to go buy a new pack when I ran out this afternoon.  Now it is evening, and I'm wanting one, but I don't care.  The next few days will be ho...

I am sad.  I fear this is the start of a new norm, and I don't like it one bit.  For those who love the pulp and ink of newspapers, there is a sad story.  Most may not think it is a big...

Question for all...

Do you pick songs (for myspace, cd's, downloads, etc.) for the lyrics, or tune, or both?  I really want you to answer, or I wouldn't ask!  :)

Thankful? Of course!

It's Saturday.  Thanksgiving has passed and all that.  I guess it's time for a blog.  I had a houseful of people for Thanksgiving this year, and that made me happy.  Thanksgiving s...
