“In criticism I will be bold, and as sternly, absolutely just with friend and foe. From this purpose nothing shall turn me.” – Edgar Allan Poe I always want to be able to feel free to speak my mind, even if it means openly disagreeing with someone. I like that Poe says “with friend and foe.” Honesty is one of my favorite traits in another person, and I don’t want a friend that is constantly tip-toeing around my feelings. I want a friend that is able to be frank with me and let me know if... Read Full Story

Regrets? There’s no way I can pick a single day. I want to go back and relive all the days I spent with my dad, and all the days I pitched a fit at my mom and she didn’t deserve it. And as I’m sitting here thinking of all the things I regret. Things that I would go back and change if I could. And I’m reminded that I want to live my life with no regrets, or whatever the cliche is. Basically, when I maybe see this question again 5 years from now, I don’t want to have 10 new shame...

I’ve been watching documentaries lately. It is becoming a real problem because I think I am starting to see more conspiracies than normal. I now have guilt trips about fast food, Wal-mart, anything NOT organic, anything organic (because it might be inorganic masquerading as organic), you name it. I don’t trust labels, advertisements, politicians, teachers, or police officers. This has to stop. I feel some kind of pressing need to move out of this country but have no means nor determination to... Read Full Story

Little miss Ray is slowly dying of a strange mix of boredom and stress. How do these two opposing things mix? I am stressed because I am constantly doing things, but I am bored with the things I have to do. Make sense? So I have taken to listening to Jason Mraz radio on Pandora. It calms me. I want to be here: Read Full Story

I was thinking about stupid things today. Like why would an apartment complex install high-maintenance, easily stained carpet instead of cheap linoleum or laminate. Maybe so they have a valid reason not to return my deposit. Or because it’s slightly less expensive. Who knows. I know I have made these type of lists before, but I enjoy them. Serving tables gives you an entirely new opinion of people. Sometimes bad, sometimes good. Mostly bad. Dear customers, 1. I hate it when you are... Read Full Story

I’m very upset over this: AP News In a nutshell, Mike Vick is allowed to once again play for the NFL after being convicted of a felony charge for dog fighting. He can attend all preseason practices, workouts, and meetings and will even be allowed in games if he can find a team that will sign him. He only spent 20 months in prison. Pitbulls are not meant to look like this: 1 , 2 , 3 . They should look like this: 1 , 2 , 3 . And Mike Vick should no receive just a slap on the wrist... Read Full Story

He sure loves to play dress up. Actually, he HATES the hoodie but will proudly wear the “Mike Vick hate club” shirt wherever he goes. I love this dog! I got my license back and have been driving around every chance I get. It’s such a relief to be able to drive to the store. Read Full Story

John (of course) is listening to Johnny Cash. I love it. I posted on twitter already that these little moments of happiness make me love life. I come home from an unproductive day at work to find him in a clean house blaring “The Beast in Me.” I have just finished reading “Killer Kids”, which is about children/teenagers who kill their parents. It’s not very disturbing. I have just started reading “Loss of Innocence”, which IS disturbing because it’s about kids who kill other kids. Something... Read Full Story
