Look what happened now...
Ready, Set, Jet!

Hey, Sonic What’s up? I went on a Sonic run for the office the other day. People ask me if it bothers me to pick up hamburger and junk for other people. (I assume they ask this because I am a vegetarian?) To be honest, No, I don't care what you eat. (I have a very full life, thanks) But I do think this photo of a cherry shake came out really well. :O I took it with my iphone to text back to the office to let know I was on my way. I had other stops, etc. Like picking up my mail... Received so many compliments on the last 1 I went back on line & order another in a different pattern. It’s really cool in the heat (I put a cardigan on for work) and super easy to wear. I also ordered new nail polish from a store on Ebay. Does anyone else ever donate? This week I also discovered a few Rotterdam photos stuck way back on my Twitpic account. But sadly not enough to do a post. Why I was so stingy in uploading photos?? I have no idea. :( So thats it for now...I'm knee deep in packing & readying the office to go to Vegas. *Yippee! :D
Catch you later- Follow trends? Follow people? Follow ideas? Follow mainstream? Nope, I don't really do any of that, don’t get me wrong- there are a few people I follow and read everyday - they rock. But anything else? Nope. I wear what I want to wear, when I want to, I do my hair, nails and shoes to make myself happy, etc. But on the other hand it’s ok to follow. You can get some great inspiration from others but, do not copy or steal. That's totally NOT COOL. You know, I have heard all my life that when someone copies you/acts like you/does what you do it's a great compliment. Hmm nope, it's theft. I don't want to be cloned. I could never figure out why people did that in school. Why you want to pretend to do/be something your not? How tiring is that? I am “ye of little attention span”, call me when something happens, I will be over here reading or drawing. lalallalala skips away~~~ So one day a girl started "cloning" me at school. 1st I thought I must be imagining this. Why Me? I had friends and a BF, but so? I had my share of teenage angst too. (We had that back then, you didn’t invent it, LOL) anyway I watch and watch. What I randomly pull out of my closet to wear on Monday she wears similar on Tuesday. What I wear Tuesday she wears on Wed and so on. So I do experiment (Cause I’m all about science, right?) I wear outlandish clothes next week. She repeats what I wore week before! (Why you have better taste than me, then WHY COPY ME?) I was like WTF? Maybe it’s all in my head...but no, I go back to regular clothes and she continue to copy me. Buy shoes like mine, book bag, earrings, etc..Then she comes up to me and tries to be friends, SO I was like ok, who the HELL are you? She was just lonely and wanted to fit in. * ___ * Ok, I gave her chance & she befriended my entire group - she ended up with my BF's BFF and they got married! I was like what the??? How you move so fast?? Then all hell breaks loose and she is no longer the same person?! WTF? She doesn’t Dress, Act, BE same person as before, suddenly. The guy was like WHAT HAVE I DONE? WHO IS THIS? We were all very astonished that any of this happened. :0 My boy friend did go on later to become my hubby (years later, God rest his soul.) He went to his best buddy and told him to get an annulment. And what the HELL was he thinking? (Cause that's what real friends do. They call you on your shit & are still there when you screw up, no matter what.) This was some crazy shit! How far will you carry something like that and why? Just F’ing be yourself. IF people like you good and if they don’t then F them and you find people that will later on. NO sense in wasting your life and train wrecking other peoples. Ok story over... It’s ok to Follow your heart and me on twitter, lol But don’t clone anyone, K? Later- "Own only what you can always carry with you: know languages, know countries, know people. Let your memory be your travel bag."

Ok, I will admit there are some things I have no problem updating/changing and others, well "NO! Never." She says, kicking and screaming. I will not change it! *Case in point my avatar - the beating earth gif. People advise me I should put a picture (of something ) & update it and blah, blah), NO! I like it & it stays. ok? and now I have a small one for the website do you see it? Look up there. In front of http://www.msoneworld4me.com/ See? I worked hard to find/make things like that.. *shy* but really...Don't you think it's cool too? *--* Anyway... There is something I did change.. Gucci is super awesome, OMG! This is WOWOW or at least it is on me. It's not new, but I just recently discovered it. (Because as I said, I don't go changing my perfume often.) I think your perfume should be a signature thing. Although things smell different on different people too, but you don't want to smell like everyone else, do you? I know I don't. :( This is sleeve, bottle & 1 sealed pkg. The bottle itself is the plastic red box. I really like that too. IDKW? But it seems to fit. Now, I only wear this on dates or days off. I don't wear it to office. Its strong and it's mmm how do I say this? It makes men notice you? You understand? They seem to really, really like it. So I don't want my business meetings to get weird. So I stick to my old work stand by. And I don't wear it when I travel - because I already have creepy guys following me. See blog entry on Rules of Travel, lol I really like to wear Japanese Cherry Blossom from Bath & Body works. It's affordable and they make EVERYTHING in the line. I have even seen shampoo. (?) Really.. This was just a few things I gathered before I got bored. I have MUCH, MUCH more. I was kind of surprised I had this much stuff really? WTF? When did that happen? Photo you can see, lol It smells good and leaves me feeling very clean. People always complement me on this too. Perfect for work and after.
Ok, I better get back to work now. I'm not sure why I am so tired. :( Laters- So I actually did a little work (really) and went to see another old friend. We walked around, did a little shopping had a nice dinner and caught up. & I realized just how much I miss him...:( Jackson Square Forgot to really take any photos at 2nd hotel. It was the Sheraton & was nice, expensive & full of people. Jazz Fest + a convention. Lobby was huge, had t-shirts, event tickets, Starbucks, lounge, wine tasting, etc. No pictures because everytime I went to check it out got hit on by random businessmen - so left quickly. WTF?! Do I look like I want to chat? Grr I couldn't even get coffee @ Starbucks for all the crazy men milling about. :X Luckily my guy brought me coffee. :) Walked around the French Market, which seemed to be deserted? Went to the Flea Market too. It is getting to be more and more imported junk. I miss the days when it was local handmade stuff. But I guess they have to bring in what sells. I didn't take any photos there, or buy anything. Tradition is that I eat at at least 1 meal in Margaritaville, why? I dont' have a clue. hahaha Always feel weird taking pictures of the menu..like It's rude. But can never remember what food cost either. I guess I like the place because the colors are so bright & intense. Cause truth be told I am not overly fond of the Caribbean. But I do like Florida (a lot) Oh! and they do make a GREAT MARGARITA! Parts of our dinner, after I remembered to take photos, lol I did actually buy this....for my mother! I found out a couple of years back (when I took her to the Quarter) that she has a "thing" for Jimmy Buffet. She didn't want a t-shirt, so I got her this. She calls them "toothpick holders" we know them as shot glasses, but hey..whatever. LOL I could do a complete post on her "toothpick" holders, she has so many. Also stopped by Peaches records. Didn't know they were still pressing Vinyl?! But clerk told us some of the records were original (as in back in the day?! WTF !) & some newly pressed! Who knew? 2J's ahh memories... Do you see a theme here? LOL I did buy Beignet Mix..I was out at home. You can order off Amazon, but it just feels wrong, lol And another. Lovely end to a lovely day...
“Listen with ears of tolerance! See through the eyes of compassion! Speak with the language of love” The Best Dating TipsDating, umm sometimes it’s GREAT other times….. Well, not Some of the best dates I have ever experienced were not that OVER the TOP, but did show there was some effort put into it. For 1st dates I really like dinner or coffee. It’s all about being comfortable for the 1st date. So something short, because let’s be honest we can usually tell within the 1st 10 minutes (sometimes a lot less) if this is someone you want to hang out with. BEST BET for 1st date = Meet for Coffee/tea (not booze) and chatting. I like to see how he treats the waitress, how much time he stares at me and if he turns his phone off. If all goes well, maybe a movie or dancing after, but I never commit till I can see how it goes 1st. Being trapped in a bad 1st date is like being in HELL. It always amazes me how different people can act when they are trying to “impress” & when they are themselves…But anyway lets say it went well. What to do on the NEXT date?? So Ok that went well. You even went to a movie after and all is still going nicely. What to do next? ??? Dinner and dancing- always good, but if you want to try something more or want to mix up your dating routine here are a few suggestions. I also tried to keep in mind budget. Because as awesome as it is to be flown off to Paris for dinner, um well lets be real. K? Dating Ideas10 NEXT date ideas 1. Picnic A Picnic is always nice. Plan around your weather and location. Relax, eat and enjoy! (Is ok to buy the food if you cannot/don’t have time to cook.) But always ask what the other person likes & be honest. Because you are going to be alone, in the woods (maybe) so better get something you want to eat. 2. The “I got tickets to …..” We do this a lot in Austin, because they are always so many new bands. Just pick a random club and go. Give it a try and see if the band is good. If not then you can always take a nighttime stroll & see the sights. 3. Art Gallery/Museum Great to see how he interacts it with the art. Because you can tell a lot about a person based on their comments. REALLY It’s ok if you don’t understand/like all the pieces. Art is subjective and it’s MADE to get you talking. :) 4. Sports Date If that’s your thing, (rolls eyes lol) some PEOPLE LOVE his kind of date. (Not my ideal…I don’t like to be sweaty and even with miniature golf I have the attention span of a 3 year old, so BORED and ready to go home now.) So know your partner and plan accordingly. 5. The ½ Dinner You make ½ and he prepares ½. Is ok to cheat and buy it. Just be honest about it. (To be honest I don’t usually cook until I am in a “relationship”. Why? Because well, I’m a good cook.) 6.MOVIE NIGHT with a twist
After things are going well and your comfy try this one. You bring your favorite all time DVD and he brings his. AND bring snacks that go with the movies themes. Be creative! Watch both movies and make sure you enjoy the snacks together. 7. Lets find it… I’m online all the time (big duh, right?) Always researching stuff it seems. So I always find quirky things/shops/cafés/places that way. (Also check 4-square, yelp!, etc. For different or new places in your area.) Make a list together of places you want to visit and mark them off together as you do. 8. Amusement Parks or Outside Festival. This can be fun and you can learn a lot about the other person too. Do they ride the awesome rides? Do they want to see the hockey shows or buy the expensive merchandize? Sometimes it’s just great fun to get away from everything and be a kid again. 9. Assorted Wow Dates that can easily GO WRONG: I’ve done the boat ride date (meh), the concert date; which is nice, but remember you cannot talk till it’s over. The beach trip (no pressure to look good in your suit WTF?), the SURPRISE we are going skydiving date. (Only good if the other person WANTS to do that) The exercise date, (Which was actually pretty cool) but you need to be at the same fitness level, plan accordingly. My current best date ever... 10. The Thunderstorm He calls me up @ 3:00 a.m. and says there is a thunderstorm approaching. "Want to watch it from my deck?" Meaning Its 3:00 am & I can't stop thinking about you & I want to share this with you. (Loved IT!) One of my BEST all time dates. :) But the most important thing: If you are with the RIGHT PERSON it really doesn’t matter much what you do. Happy dating & let me hear from you. :D Hey! Happy Valentines. Looks like it's going to be a crazy week. So what else is new, huh? I confess to having brought the sugary, non healthy cupcakes to work. It was me.. On the top of each cupcake was a ton of sugar/grease frosting and a stylish plastic ring...Which we wore all day long. Cause what girl doesn't like a new ring for Valentines? Right? They were made at the local supermarket bakery, so they were pretty and didn't taste very good. (Which worked out well, making you not want to eat a second!) And a Silly Man sent me this sweet, single rose... Then a dozen more followed. :D And then another silly man sent me this lovely bouquet! I was really surprised! But now I am packing it up for a short, romantic get away. :)
Ok more like I'm just throwing stuff in a bag and running out of the house cause I'm late; because SOMEONE didn't tell me till the last possible second. And he knows I don't like surprises... Men. Anyway, Hope your Valentines Day Rocks! Talk Soon- “Remember that wherever your heart is, there you will find your treasure.” I hope you find your hearts desire -
Today we say goodbye to my Trusty Canon.So Rick flew in for a surprise visit & off we go. I did not bring any of the other cameras as this one is always safe in its cute little case in my bag. So we stopped to look at some random wonderful thing and I went to take a photo & some how IT JUMPED OUT OF MY HANDS and landed screen down and ugh.. looks like it is going to shatter any second. The large black "blob" on the screen is rather unhandy when taking photos too. But it was a awesome lil camera. May it rest in peace and comeback as a puppy or smart phone (WTF) something higher on the Karma ladder. Anyway I Blame RICK... And speaking of blaming the devil for things... (lololo) If you have not tried this yet, DO NOT GO NEAR IT! It is so good you will forget your diet 4-ever! And just live in the frozen food section of the market. Totally unsure how to tag this, food, (DUH), love (totally), the Devil (RICK), Travel, (we were traveling but did not take any pictures worth uploading, I mean look at my lil camera, for Gods sake! ) Perhaps Life?
*Note to self- my life is filled with ice cream, devil men and broken electronics...hmmmm need new hobby. More as I sort it out.... |
