The Cat’s Meow & Other Random Bullshit.

2009-10-14T17:50:00-06:00

I set out to write this blog post...yesterday. Wasn’t exactly sure how it was going to go, but it was going to go somewhere and probably be funny. Now? Not so much. Funny, the difference a day makes. No pun intended my friends. Instead I spent the morning in tears. My heart broken, my nerves shot, and my emotional state on the verge of extinction. Been feeling rather lonely. Alone. I don’t know if…

Depression Creates Ghosts

2009-10-04T13:51:00-06:00

They are everywhere in my house. Everywhere I look, the ghosts created by depression are evident and powerfully present. I see them dancing in the sheets, illuminated by the early morning Sunday sunshine. I hear them giggle and play as they bask in the warmth. I can feel their laughter as they bound up or down the stairs, chasing their happiness like butterflies in the wind, hands grasping, arms holding, eyes twinkling. They are full of hope, these ghosts. The very thread of life that…

Life Explained…..

On the first day, God created the dog and said: ‘Sit all day by the door of your house and bark at anyone who comes in or walks past. For this, I will give you a life span of twenty years.’ The dog said: ‘That’s a long time to be barking. How about only ten years and I’ll give you back the other ten?’ So God agreed. On the second day, God created the monkey and said: ‘Entertain people, do tricks, and make them laugh. For…

I Do, The Yellow Submarine & All That Jazz

A co-worker of mine got married yesterday to her long time sweetheart. Weddings and I don’t normally get along, but this one turned out nice as I spent the entire time hiding behind my camera. Payton had asked me some time ago, when the wedding was in the beginning stages of being planned, to be the photographer. I, having NEVER photographed a wedding before and knowing I didn’t have the proper equipment to do it right politely declined but offered my services as a back-up photographer to…

21 - It’s The End of the Line - This Season…..

2009-09-22T02:51:00-06:00

It was a short lived season. We kind of knew going in that it might end up that way. We went for it on a wing and a prayer (seems to be a theme in my life) anyhow, the boy ended up in the ER last Tuesday night after get rammed on the field. It really wasn’t a fair deal, but then again, this is sports in the new age and there is no such thing as fair, right? He got plowed while one player held the back…

Losing My Patience All The Way Around

2009-09-13T18:02:00-06:00

I am getting irritated with WordPress blogs. I am getting majorly irritated with slow ass computers. I am losing my patience with my youngest child. I am freakin’ frustrated with life in general. Am I PMSing? Nope, not even. Not yet. Got another two weeks at least. WTH? PSF. (pent up sexual frustration) That’s my story and I’m sticking to it. /rant
