I got a job!&amp;#160; I start March 26th at Michael&#39;s as the Store Designer/Floral Department!&amp;#160; I will finally get to work, I haven&#39;t had a job since 2011!!&amp;#160; Not that I haven&#39;t been trying.&amp;#160; I&#39;ve sent out 100&#39;s of resumes and been to 27 interviews!&amp;#160; My sister Chrystal and I even went to Houston for a interview, I obviously wasn&#39;t offered a position.

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I know the title of this blog may seem a little... arrogant, but you can only here how absolutely fabulous your recipe is until you start to believe it!&amp;nbsp; Just ask my brother-in-law Austin and he will tell you that I make the best Chicken Fried Steak ever.&amp;nbsp; That&#39;s why I love cooking it for him and everyone else!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;u&gt;Here&#39;s what you will need:&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Beef Cube Steak&lt;br /&gt;
Vegetable Oil (do not substitute with any other oil)&lt;br /&gt;
Flour&lt;br /&gt;
Eggs&lt;br /&gt;
Buttermilk (Whole Milk is alright too)&lt;br /&gt;
Salt and Pepper&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Take your cube steak and soak it in buttermilk in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.&amp;nbsp; In a skillet (preferably cast iron) heat your vegetable oil over MEDIUM heat.&amp;nbsp; You want about 1/4 inch of oil in the skillet.&amp;nbsp; Drain the buttermilk off the cube steak and lay out the steaks on wax paper.&amp;nbsp; Salt and pepper each side of the steak.&amp;nbsp; In the same bowl you soaked your steaks in buttermilk beat 3-4 eggs and in a separate bowl put a good amount of flour.&amp;nbsp; I like to salt and pepper my flour and my well beaten eggs, this should be done to your taste.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Now the fun part!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Take each piece of steak and dip it in the egg, lightly coat each side in flour, dip the steak in the egg once more and then dredge in flour making sure the steak is well covered in the flour.&amp;nbsp; Double batter is one of the essentials to the excellence!&amp;nbsp; After all the pieces are battered and your oil is ready, gently place your steak in the oil.&amp;nbsp; Do not, I repeat, do not cook the steaks on any higher temp than MEDIUM!&amp;nbsp; Cook the steak until the blood begins to rise on the top of the uncooked side of the steak. (about 5-6 minutes, maybe less)&amp;nbsp; Flip your steaks over.&amp;nbsp; Cook on opposite side until golden brown.&amp;nbsp; Let steaks drain on a paper towel to remove excess oil.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Chicken Fried Steak so tender that you can cut it with a fork!!&amp;nbsp; To finish out my meal I like to serve peppered country gravy, homemade mashed potatoes, and sweet whole kernel corn with a big ole glass of sweet tea.&amp;nbsp; Prepare yourself for a lot of praise after serving up this southern comfort meal!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As with any recipe I share, I cannot stress enough the most IMPORTANT ingredient... LOVE!&amp;nbsp; Cook with love and you will never go wrong.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Until Next Time!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Smooches,&lt;br /&gt;
Hollee &lt;br /&gt;

Breaking them is a tradition that is supposed to  bring good luck.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;On the top of the egg, poke a hole with a thumbtack. Be careful not to poke your  fingers.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;On the bottom of the egg, make a hole about the size of a dime. Tap  the end gently on a table, or hit the end with a butter knife. You  should also use the thumbtack to break the yolk inside the egg. Shake  the insides of the egg into a bowl and save them for scrambled eggs!&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Wash your egg with warm water and dry it off. Make sure to wash your hands well after you do this.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Decorate your egg with egg dye or markers, or both.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Then use a spoon to fill your eggs with confetti and glitter.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Glue a small circle of tissue paper over the hole. You should pick a  tissue paper color that matches the color you made the egg. Then you  can disguise the hole! When the glue dries, you&#39;re ready to go.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Always play with your cascarones outside. Chase your  friends and shower them with confetti and glitter by gently breaking the eggs over (but not on) their heads.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;When the eggs are broken over your head, you are &quot;Showered with good fortune.&quot;&lt;/li&gt;

I am very sensitive when it comes to intimacy.&amp;nbsp; The whore in me died after countless numbers of casual sex and one nighters that never amounted to shit.&amp;nbsp; I realize that sex without emotion is useless, dangerous, and has no part in my life.&amp;nbsp; I really like you.&amp;nbsp; I feel that you may be everything that I am missing in my life.&amp;nbsp; If you can put into words what it is that I do not have or do not do, please tell me so I don&#39;t feel so rejected.&amp;nbsp; Yours Truly, M.

It never feels good to come in second to someone you know will not provide all the things you would give to strengthen a healthy and everlasting companionship.&amp;nbsp; But yet you should not let failure affect you much because in the end all will realize what wrong was done and what those decisions made could have been, if they would have chose the other route in that particular situation...&lt;br /&gt;

I am plotting some evil shit in my mind just to appease the Aries Rising I am, but I have enough pride to just shake it off, move on and accept this rejection as their loss.&amp;nbsp; Fuck him and his super faggot ass drag queen boyfriend.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
How could I want a relationship with someone who doesn&#39;t even have a relationship with themselves?&amp;nbsp; Always having to watch out for leaks of his dirty little secret.&amp;nbsp; Basically meaning that there will always be things, people, and situations that come before you.&amp;nbsp; I am better than that and although I am not perfect, I do deserve companionship where I am not being hid and where my love can be displayed openly and at least known exists.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This being said, I release him from my thoughts and from my heart with no regret, no emotion, and no wrath.&amp;nbsp; I wash my hands of him and free myself from anymore emotion concerning him in my life.&amp;nbsp; ~M. Lee Moore&lt;br /&gt;

&quot;Skywatch is a report on the astrology of the day—the energy that is on  the street for everybody—all over the Earth. The pattern changes  quickly. Some days are better than others.

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;Written Sunday August 13, 2006&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I could go on and on wondering why or what is wrong with me that I cant find someone to begin and maintain a close, personal, and eventually intimate relationship.&amp;nbsp; This has plagued me for a while, I am sure this has been inadvertently answered many times but yet I am blind to the subliminal.&amp;nbsp; I am just to damn stubborn, vain, ignorant, and vengeful to realize that I will die alone.&amp;nbsp; So, I guess this is it... I need to train myself to deactivate all my emotions and quit hoping and dreaming of a life that includes romance, companionship and intimacy with anyone but myself.&amp;nbsp; The f*cked up thing about this is even I wouldn&#39;t pursue a relationship of this nature with myself, how freaking sad is that?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If all you need is love to enter the kingdom of Heaven, I have a non-refundable one way ticket to Hell.&amp;nbsp; It is days, times, and situations like these that I beg for a release from these frightening thoughts of self hate and worthlessness, which has become a personal daily mental disease of thought.&amp;nbsp; I instinctively occupy my thoughts enough to subdue what my reality really truly is... a waste of life and oxygen, incapable of receiving unconditional love.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I could cry or I could scream and break things, but that would just add on to my worthlessness and subtract what little love I do receive;&amp;nbsp; from the handful of family that only love me because they have to and maybe a few &quot;friends&quot; that only love me when it benefits themselves.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As I was being raised as a child I wish the individuals who reared me would have prepared me for the worst in every situation, especially in matters of the heart.&amp;nbsp; If I were told then that I would live a lonely and loveless life I wouldn&#39;t expect anything more than what I have right now.&amp;nbsp; But we in our American life would rather heighten and stimulate the emotions and mentality of our young by feeding them false prophecies of growing old happy with a spouse, children, and grandchildren whose love for one another is unconditional and eternal.&amp;nbsp; But honestly, are there not more people in my place than in that wonderful fairy tale world?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Naturally I would like to place blame, possibly on the individuals who raised me, due to the fact that they were not completely honest about the rules of engagement.&amp;nbsp; Though the actual realization is there is no blame to be given.&amp;nbsp; The facts of life are not universal and are definitely not the same for any given individual.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Over the thirty years of my life I have learned a vast number of things, met thousands of people, and encountered numerous situations both good and bad.&amp;nbsp; Each and every day I have been allowed to live one more day, I in some way realize why life and the purpose of the Creation exists.&amp;nbsp; It has taken my thirty years of life to learn these lessons...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* You never truly know who your real friends are.&lt;br /&gt;
* Families are forever.&amp;nbsp; The love may be unconditional, but not always the like for one another.&lt;br /&gt;
* Never instill to much trust in another.&amp;nbsp; Trust should be built through time, communication, and mutual respect.&lt;br /&gt;
* Besides God and His love, nobody but yourself should come first.&amp;nbsp; Without you, you are nobody.&lt;br /&gt;
* There is no such thing as perfect here on Earth.&amp;nbsp; Overlook the little things through life and you will provide yourself with more time for happiness and peace.&lt;br /&gt;
* Realize that if you love yourself, there is always someone who loves you.&amp;nbsp; In turn, don&#39;t expect to be loved by another until the everlasting love for yourself resides in you. &lt;br /&gt;
* Do not let situations consume you to the point you begin to doubt your self worth.&amp;nbsp; Everything works out in the end, even the inevitable.&lt;br /&gt;
* Quoting my Grandfather, &quot;If you lie with dogs, you will get fleas.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;nbsp; Always choose wisely when faced with a decision, responsibility to yourself and your happiness comes first.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;i&gt;AND...&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* No matter what... what goes around comes around.&amp;nbsp; Good is rewarded with good, evil is rewarded with evil.&amp;nbsp; Some religions call this karma, nonetheless it is not a belief, it is a fact.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Smooches and Much Love,&lt;br /&gt;
Holly Wood&lt;br /&gt;

Some of us convinced the apocalypse is months away, the rest of us calling bullshit! (But yet secretly and subconsciously scared shitless, right?)  I say who gives a rats butt... let it be!  En-tee-ways I am not here to ponder the end of times... hell to be honest... I don&#39;t know why the hell I am on here!  As a matter of fact... does anyone know where I am?  &lt;lol&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No but on the real now, I have not sat and wrote from the heart in a while.  Why?  Well when you have NOTHING in your heart worthy of putting in words, what is the point?  Central Texas has the tendency to do that to a person, there is no love, no excitement, no... nothing!  I mean if I were the person to do nothing but spit hate and vinegar then I could be on this blog day after day.  Almost sad isn&#39;t it?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2012. Wow.  It really does seem like yesterday when I was sitting (working) through the  LONGEST overnight shift at the emergency room in Colorado frantically typing out the now infamous blog, &quot;Stump Speech&quot;.  Now here we are two years later and I think writing that piece has caused some bad voodoo, evil eye, curse, hex, jinx, ojo mailificioso, whatever the hell you call it in your world, on me and my frigid black soul. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So... are you wondering if I retract anything I wrote that night 2 years ago?  Are you waiting to read that I denounce the thoughts I once had because I have now seen the light??  Well turn on MSNBC bitches because ain&#39;t nothing changed with me but my waist size and hair weave! Mm, K?  But I have seen another side.  I have seen another way in the thinking of Americans versus government. &lt;the definition=&quot;&quot; of=&quot;&quot; government=&quot;&quot; by=&quot;&quot; way=&quot;&quot; this=&quot;&quot; being=&quot;&quot; and=&quot;&quot; overall=&quot;&quot;&gt;  Confused yet?  Hold on to your britches bitches.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I ranted before about the laziness and &quot;gimme gimme&quot; attitudes that came forth after they, not we, elected this current mindless, in over his head, supposed community organizer POTUS.  (I never speaketh his name, its like going into the bathroom with the lights off chanting &quot;Bloody Mary&quot; three times, the dumbass is gonna show!)  But now, at the end of this 1st term I am witnessing a little thought and creativity amongst us.  Are the changes right?  Ethically, no.  Are they wrong?  Economically, no.  Is every individual in this country somehow and someway linked into this?  Undeniably, yes!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What started off as this lets heal the world and share/even the wealth policy has morphed in a way that many of us did not expect it to.  I know of no easier and understandable way but to put it in list form...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Health Insurance and Medical Reform:&lt;br /&gt;*I see people going to the doctor, using WebMD and Google to research what they need to tell the doctor what symptoms they &quot;have&quot; to get whatever prescription (Xanax, Adderall, Vicodin, etc) and instead of taking these medications, they in turn sell them (mainly to the wealthy dont have anything else to do but get fucked up people) and in turn generate an income that keeps them from applying for welfare.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So illegal!  But it works!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*I lived in Colorado, probably the easiest state in the US to obtain a medical marijuana license.  For $30 and a 10 minute interview, BAM!  You are now legal to smoke it up!  Not only are you allowed to partake in the ganja you can:&lt;br /&gt;      -Name another as your caregiver automatically giving them a license.&lt;br /&gt;      -Every patient is allowed to grow 6 plants per license.&lt;br /&gt;      -Caregivers can treat as many patients as they please.&lt;br /&gt;Lets do some math.  A caregiver has 5 patients, by law that caregiver can grow 36 plants.  That caregivers patients can grow 6 plants of their own, 6 times 36 is 216, plus the caregivers 36 is 252.  One plant yields an average of one pound of marijuana.  Really?  Six people by law in Colorado can grow at least and utilize 252 pounds of pot?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Without having a license in Colorado, if you are caught by the law smoking or in possession of less than 2 ounces (which would last me a good 2-3 weeks) it is a $25 FINE!  No prison, no arrest, just a ticket!  AND!  You can only be cited with that fine once every 365 days. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;HO...&lt;br /&gt;LY...&lt;br /&gt;SHIT!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now that I have educated some of you on this matter let me tell you about a REPUBLICAN candidate for President that realizes that what Colorado has shown us is the ANSWER to all of the economic shortcomings of we, the people and we, the nation. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ron Paul knows, supports, and will BACK UP AND DO WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE!  He isnt about the rhetoric, he is about the FACTS.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The legalization of marijuana alone would single handedly eliminate the national debt.  By reducing the amount of money spent putting supposed marijuana criminals in prisons, creating new jobs, and calming down these fucking morons by just passing them the bong and jamming to a little Bob Marley.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yeah yeah yeah we cant tax marijuana because it is natural and grows from the earth, such as vegetables and bread.  But we can tax production, business sales, and manufacturing just as we do with fruit, farmers markets, honey producers, etc.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Get off your ass America and quit believing the bullshit.  Mr current POTUS has not followed through with not 1 damn promise he made, NOT ONE out of 502!!  He has did nothing about bipartisanship except fuel the fire and speaking as a huge flaming homo, he is the BIGGEST liar we have ever employed.  Lying to the LGBT community since the day he thought, &quot;well hyuck, I thinks Imma run fo Presadint Michelle! Lets start wit dem there homos and promise them some marriage and rights.&quot; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Uhhhh, where the fuck is it dude?  (I still dont believe in same sex &quot;marriage&quot;, I was just using it as an example.  If the homos cant be satisfied with civil unions and domestic partnerships they obviously arent getting screwed in the ass enough.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Look past the Christian bible thumping Republicans and listen to the Neo-Conservatives.  They are the &quot;CHANGE&quot; and from what it seems, they are the only way out of this mess.  That is, if its not to late.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I love you all!  My precious fans!  Keep it real and ALWAYS pass the dutch on the left hand side...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Smooches,&lt;br /&gt;Holly Wood (the Celebrity)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/the&gt;&lt;/lol&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://holleewoodexperience.blogspot.com/feeds/2486606193307860007/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://holleewoodexperience.blogspot.com/2012/02/speechless-who-me.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8606853358159182166/posts/default/2486606193307860007'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8606853358159182166/posts/default/2486606193307860007'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://holleewoodexperience.blogspot.com/2012/02/speechless-who-me.html' title='Speechless?!

Hell I am not really sure what the hell I am, so help me out and give me some advice on a situation, okkaaayyyyy?!?!&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Earlier this week I was confronted by a good friend of mine about the contents of this blog.  To be specific, the blog post titled &quot;Hollywood&#39;s Stump Speech.&quot;  I was told by my friend that she took &quot;great offense&quot; to me being &quot;racist&quot; in my writings.  I was told that I made fun of how other races name their children and that I used words such as &quot;n*gger&quot; and &quot;wetbacks&quot; fluidly throughout the entire post.  At the time I didn&#39;t have a computer sitting around to see what she was talking about.  To be quite honest I just knew she couldn&#39;t have been talking about something I personally wrote.  Me?  Racist??  I can honestly say with a pure conscience that I have never said, exhibited, or even acknowledged anything about, or related to the slander of any race (well maybe white people a few times).  And the ONLY time I have used the words I was accused of using is when I am referring to my closest friends and family, and even then it is never used in a demeaning way, nor would anyone within ear shot consider it racist!!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Well of course when I got to a computer the first thing I did was go straight to the blog.  I read every single post!  Twice!!  (That&#39;s a whole lotta reading.)  I never found anything that would be deemed &quot;racism&quot; or &quot;racist&quot; at anytime.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I will say that the particular post &quot;Stump Speech&quot; is HIGHLY opinionated and I understand that many people wouldn&#39;t agree with the things I wrote that horribly long overnight shift I was working in the ER.  It does contain some foul language.  It also contains phrases that could be deemed hateful, but none of those phrases are directed towards any race whatsoever.  As for the name examples I used in the post...  I gave examples that were meant as a joke, were fictitious, are joked about on a daily basis in the media and more than likely in every single social group that exists in America.  I used 3 fictitious name examples:  one that is &quot;ghetto&quot; (could be construed as African American);  one that is obviously Hispanic (I was told that it was racist because of the length and number of names I used... I am sorry but in my family and where I grew up all of the Hispanics were given a 1st name, a last name, and the middle name(S) were predominantly every single last name that was blood related to that person. Am I wrong? I have a tia &lt;aunt&gt; that has 5 middle names, all last names of our relatives.)  AND SORRY FOR THE CAPS BUT I DID USE ANOTHER NAME EXAMPLE - I poked fun at the wonderful white trash, redneck, country bohunk, etc. names some people give to their daughters.  WHEN ALL OF THE EXAMPLES I USED INCLUDED EVERY PREDOMINANT RACE IN THE USA, HOW COULD I BE RACIST?  BETTER YET, HOW COULD ANY ONE PERSON TAKE OFFENSE? &lt;please&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Anyways, after carefully reading over the entire blog, each and every word of every single post since I started this blog, I questioned other members in the &quot;circle of friends&quot; of my friend that stated she was offended by what I wrote.  Come to find out, I had pretty much offended the entire circle; all of them stating racism.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;UGGHHH!!!  Still not mad, I promise.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; &gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;font-size: x-large;&quot;&gt;So here is my plea to all of you...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Would everyone please take a little time and review my blog (in particular the post &quot;Hollywood&#39;s Stump Speech&quot;) and PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE comment telling me whether or not you feel it is racist in anyway.  I am not asking anyone to agree/disagree with my opinions I wrote concerning politics or any other subject matter.  I just want to know if you would take offense to the writings in a manner that would be deemed racism.  I need to know, after reviewing my blog viewed statistics, I have had readers in 17 different countries and average about 28-34 hits a day.  I do not want to be considered racist or any other word/label associated to the hatred or slander of any race here in the US or for any other country on the whole planet.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Just so everyone knows I am still friends with all that confronted me about this.  Yeah, there are some that I have been told talked a lot of crap behind my back.  I was also told that when it was being discussed that the entire place was enraged.  And I have also been told (when I questioned who initiated the killing mob against me) 4 different people, all friends, and I believe that the one friend I went off on hardcore wasn&#39;t actually the person who brought up the conversation.  In fact, I was told (by many) that he was nowhere around the night I was hated on and cussed about, but hey... at least I was the topic of conversation!!  Good or bad, I was on their mind! LMAO  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;(My friendship has not changed with any of them, I am not trying to disprove their beliefs, I respect the ones who confronted me face to face, and I have no hard feelings to the ones who didn&#39;t.)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Muchos Besos Mis Amigos!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;H.
