Staccato tidbits, grasped from my mind.

-I sleep with music more often then I sleep with men.

-My body is in South Bend, my heart is torn between the mountains and the forests, my mind desires a trip to Prague.

-We live in a society where movie stars are praised for their "courage" in admitting they were unfaithful. I wonder, has love replaced infidetliy as the new taboo?

-I believe in love.

-We do not own our pets. They chose to love us.

-Driving an SUV does not mean you can drive like an ass on bad roads. If anything, you need to subcomb to a greater stopping distance and sliding into someone could cause more damage than my '95 Monte Carlo.

-I know you think that our winter disproves "Global Warming", but what you don't seem to realize is that the term was outdated and replaced by the proper term of "Global Change". It's still land to be respected . . . . and we're still destroying it.

-I would rather receive a potted plant than a dozen long-stemmed roses.

-Cheap, creative dates are much better than using your whole paycheck to try and impress me.

-I would rather take someone on a cheap, creative date than to spend my whole paycheck on them . . . . I need my money, dammit.

-I can't eat lamb. It makes me sad. I won't eat lamb.

-Just saw an advertisement for blood sugar monitors in three fancy, new colors: Because beauty matters when you're striking blood.

-Popular fast food chain introduces new "Soul-Body Combo Meal": Clergy disapprove; Cannibals delighted!

-Catholic Church offers popular pies: Today's flavor - Fuzzy Nutty Fluff

-I dance for my body, mind, and soul. I dance for the connection to the earth. I thought I danced for everyone else, but I now know that I dance for me.

-I fell down the stairs a little over a year ago and broke my tailbone . . . . I also discovered that the fall cracked my ass.

-Remember to stretch before you have too much fun in the shower.

-There are a lot of things I could have been great at, but what's the point in striving for excellence if you have no passion in what you're doing?

-I love good smells. When I go shopping, I smell the: candles, deodorant, incense, essential oils, laundry soap, lotions, shampoos, fabric softners, et cetera.

-I am an advocate for the scratch-n-sniff sticker.

-You remember those markers, pens, and pencils that smelled like fruit? Those were good too.

-I think I went through most of my childhood high from sniffing things.

-I want to make a snowman and snow angels, but I don't want to do it alone.

-I only let myself cry when I'm alone. At those times, I wish I had someone to cry on.

There are many more of these thoughts, but on a final note for today:

-I have a pair of earrings that are made from dyed fish-scales. The man who sold them told me that they were scales from the most ferocious pirhanas in the Amazon. I don't necessarily believe that, but I admit it makes a good story.
