Just to make you chuckle...

A little boy opened the large old family Bible, and he

looked with fascination at the ancient pages as he

turned them one by one.


He was still in Genesis when something fell out of the

Bible. He picked it up and looked at it closely. It

was a very large old tree leaf that had been pressed

between the pages of the Bible long ago."Momma, look

what I found!" the boy called out.



"What do you have there?" his mother asked.


With astonishment in his voice, the young boy

answered, "I think it's Adam's underwear!"

Too Funny!!

Your Bumper Sticker Should Be

Squirrel - it's what's for supper

Dead on Acurate!

You are a Self-Discoverer

You're not religious, but you've created your own kind of spirituality.
Introspective and thoughtful, you tend to look inward for the divine.
You are distrusting of all forms of organized religion.
You especially dislike religious gurus and leaders, who you feel are charlatans.

Damn things!

kinda true...

You Are 80% Indie
You're a very indie person, and admit it, you look down a little on people who strive to be normal.You'll indulge in a little mainstream pop culture every now and then. But for you, anything not indie is a guilty pleasure!

Today's Deep Thought

When you know a thing, to hold that you know it, and when you do not know a thing, to allow that you do not know it: this is knowledge.
-- Confucius

Guess the Punchline...

You are on a horse, galloping at a constant speed. On your right side is a sharp drop off, and on your left side is an elephant traveling at the same speed as you. Directly in front of you is a galloping kangaroo and your horse is unable to overtake it. Behind you is a lion running at the same speed as you and the Kangaroo. What must you do to safely get out of this highly dangerous situation?

Answer coming soon....

Trick Questions?

Looks like I had a trick question or 2 that even APj and SSM didn't get. So here it is..

1. Jobs I’ve had in my life:a. rape crisis counselor b. caterer c. record store manager
Yep- so true... never a caterer, though I love to cook for my friends.

2. movie I'd watch over & over: a. anything Harrison Ford. b. anything Johnny Depp c. anything Keanu Reeves
Oviously there's no confusion here. Harrison who?

3. places I've lived:a. Fresno, CA b. Seattle WA c. Clovis, CA4.
OK- this was a trick question, though I thought that SSM would get it. I lived in Clovis for a few months. I actually never lived in Seattle. I lived in Lynwood, WA.

4. tv show I love/loved to watch:a. Sopranos b. Lost c. Party of Five
Guess this was hard too. Lost was an easy keeper. I don't have cable, never seen a full episode of the Sopranos. LOVED Party of Five (There seems to be a Matthew Fox theme here. But really it's all about Sawyer and Griffin.)

5. place I've been on vacation:a. Florida b. Boston c. Hawaii
Never been to Hawaii. Used to visit family in Boston and Florida

6. One of my favorite foods:a. sushi b. spaghetti c. bagel with lox cream cheese
Gosh... just because I'm Italian... I hate spaghetti!!

7. something I'd rather be doing right now:a. sleeping b. cleaning my apartment c. Johnny Depp
Too easy. I always rather be doing Johhny Depp, or sleeping so that I can dream about it.

8. Something I always/usually carry with me: a. matches b. lip balm c. dental floss
No matches, purple lighter in my left pants pocket at all times.

State of the Union

Can't seem to make myself clean my apartment. And it's dirty...really dirty, not just the usual messy. The evil Volvo is boasting a red "Check Engine" light, although she appears to be just fine. Not sure if she's crying wolf this time, but this car and I seem to have a relationship that needs to end. Where to find the money for a new(er) car? Good question. Work 40+ hours a week and still can't seem to make ends meet. Solutions... realistically... need a new better paying job or 2nd job. My Dad would help if he could, but let's face it, my Dad's plate is overflowing trying to care for my Mom, and what right have I to accept his help when I could help him by taking care of my Mom in my free time, but I don't because it makes me crazy and brings up too much unresolved childhood anger. Would leave the house and go do something (since I'm obviously not cleaning) but where to go when you're broke and the damn Check Engine light is taunting you! So I've slept, most of today. Been doing that a lot lately. Sometimes I dream I'm somewhere beautiful. Sometimes I dream I'm driving a new car. Sometimes I dream I'm in love. Sometimes I dream that my Mom can walk. Sometimes I dream about friends that I miss. Sometimes I dream that I am thin and beautiful. Sometimes I dream that I have a lovely home and people who love me in... Dreaming is good.
