Without words
I recently had an experience that was so intense that I am unable to describe it in words. Words could never give the experience … visually or spiritually … the justice that it deserves.
Stuck inside my head …
When I see something so beautiful and extraordinary, I want to share it with the world. I want to weave a story that sucks a person into my imaginary universe. However, each attempt I make at trying to describe the experience, I water down the sheer beauty of the moment. Read more
No commentsBrainwashed by fairy tales
As children, we are spoon fed fairy tales. This world of fantasy and make-believe becomes our reality as we listen closely waiting to find out what happens to the lady in distress. Read more

I would gladly wipe dirty butts and watch people bleed out of their eyeballs if it meant that I would never have to set foot in another restaurant where I am the waitress. Read more
6 commentsI saw myself sleeping
I never take naps, but I could not help myself Friday afternoon. After working 3 to 11 p.m. Thursday followed by 8 a.m. classes on Friday, I knew I needed a nap before I tried to pull another shift at work.
I closed my eyes and let the rest of the afternoon guide me to sleep … Read more

The human brain … what a dumb invention!
Why did our creator forget the most important part? Everything needs to have the ability to turn on and off! Read more

I am having the strangest dreams these days …
A window in my home reveals a magnificent skyline. I gaze upon the vast landscape … a feeling of peace washes over me. The stars twinkle as the city lights invite me to take a closer look.
With my face literally pressed to the glass, a new story unfolds … a much uglier version of the truth.
I watch as two buildings tumble to the ground … fire and smoke pour from the side. My mind quickly recalls 9/11 … is it terrorists? Read more

Two more weeks …
Knowing that I will be broke and unemployed in two weeks has made me the happiest woman alive. I am not sure why I did not do this sooner.
What is the best way to celebrate unemployment?
As I sat on the beach Saturday … wind slapping me in the face … sand ripping at my flesh … I made a decision. Â

When I grow up …
I am not alone in the mermaid fantasy. Thousands of little girls watched “Splash” in 1984. We were glued to the television as Daryl Hannah walked through the streets of New York City. We kept hoping to catch a glimpse of her naked body, but her long blonde hair shielded our innocent eyes.
By the end of the movie, each and every little girl was with me drooling over the thought that one day we too could be mermaids.

What will you change about your life this year?
Each year we all vow to change something about our lives or ourselves. Some of us choose to go on a diet and lose that last 10 pounds. Others decide it is time to pay off debt or find a better paying job.
Some people may view the new year as a time to change. I see it as a way for us to keep holding off making change. We do not need an event or a day to make ourselves better. This should be happening every day of our lives. If we depend on a single day to make a change in our lives, then we will never change.

Is your refrigerator running?
For the past few months, my refrigerator has been playing games with me. One day it works … the next day my food is spoiled. Not wanting to buy groceries every 5 minutes of my life, I have been eating the spoiled food with remarkably good results. So far, I can report that nothing really bad has happened to me.
I wish it was as simple as putting in a call to maintenance. Unfortunately, every time I call a repair man to my place, the stupid thing starts working again. This is very frustrating.
