I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4I first created this to share art,search for music,communicate with the younger gen in the family,post my poetry and find good blogs...I adore my coffee girls,I'm obsessed with words and music and live shows... and wish to start creating my own tees with my poetry on them...I love to Dj because I like to feel like I created a perfect soundtrack for someone else's greatest memory... I loved my dad's chris craft wooden boat more than any object other than my wedding ring...I cry every time I see a retro Coke commercial...my passion besides writing, music (and Jim, of course)is helping kids in crisis...I have no idea where I am going except I hope to continue on a road with Jimmy- I know things before I know them and that's just freaky but okay so I live with it.
I believe in the power of love and THERAPY. I believe in a good cry and lap dancing your best friend for no reason(kirshy), I believe happiness is, for the most part, a choice. I also believe more than ever in 2nd CHANCES. I know I was given a few.
We all fight our own private battle of some kind don't we?
Remember, we all walk in our shoes, but no others...a buddist monk once said after administering dying rites to thousands that there are only 2 things people want to know in the end: Am I loved and did I love well?
I don't think anybody cares what car you drove and how neat your house was...or if you had a coach bag...
Things crucial to my existence are My easy-going son, Luke D. Jimmy,
Hayleyboo,
FLAGMET, the allen fam-fam,
Kirshy, all my lovely coffee girls...KATE Fox,Jo Jo, Erin and Jeff,Jak,my precious, oh so precious neices and nephews--every single ONE of them on BOTH sides (allen/gustin) have made my life a beautiful place and fulfilled and you all amaze me! How lucky am I? I have the greatest collection of friends and family anyone could ever want...
I love
evening boat rides,
campfires and old style camping,
singing cheesy 70's tunes at the top of my lungs,
football games, running music,
traveling...
and hearing a child belly laugh.
I'm currently obsessed with a disorder called parental alienation syndrome--google it if you have kids and are divorced or divorcing..and for god's sake and theirs, leave them out of it! I'm also obsessed with not obsessing.The four agreements I try to work on everyday...some days I do better than others...and the last two are my major challenge in life!
Be impeccable with your word-
ALways do your best-
Don't take anything personally-
Don't make assumptions....
and the cheesy ones...
