I'm Not That Creepy....yet

Ok, so I had a second and searched for D'onofrio on eBay, hoping to perhaps find a copy of Happy Accident, because I really do like the movie, and no one is going to buy it for me. (I'm in a sentimental romantic mood somehow).

Lots of "fan stuff" on eBay, pictures and autographs, and magnets, yada yada....and two shirts. With "certificates of authenticity". Ummmm.....right.

I am sure Mr. D smells as gorgeous and manly as he looks, and this was supposedly worn once or twice, doesn't mention anything about being laundered....

So, some freak is removing wardrobe items from a set, and selling them? Who is buying them? I am creeped out, and I am sure that somewhere Vincent D'onofrio is sitting in front of his computer, and occasionally does a search for his name, even if just for kicks. Hell, I do it, and I am certainly not famous. But, I cannot fathom how exposed I would feel finding my used clothing for sale. I think there was Shannon Daugherty's bra for sale, and other such items. Ewww.

If I wear a man's shirt, it's because I miss the man, or he's tossed me around all night in an unforgettable manner and I am drinking a cup of coffee before I dress.

I must confess I am a scent hound. Especially since I quit smoking, my nose is so sensitive, more than those around me. I smell EVERYTHING.

I remember when I dated SJ. He walked off for a minute and found me smelling his laundry- his Mr. Bubbles shirt, specifically- just basking in his scent. When I mate, it's with the nose as well as the rest of my body.

He burst into laughter at the time, but then sent me this. It's seems I am in touch with my primal side.

Just Not Feelin' It....

I am in that space that women periodically find themselves in- that angry, fed-up, my-time-has-been-wasted-here space.
I invest. It's what I do. I should probably get one of those stupid "Life is Like a Garden. Dig It!" signs. Although I am a bit of a lawn-hound, the sentiment itself is what I relate to....I invest my whole self into people and projects. And I suppose that with investing something so precious and rare as moi, I absolutely expect to see growth and return.
This is why women have affairs.

Miracle #1: The Incredible Shrinking Woman

Just wanted to post a pic of our family from a visit with extended family. Get that?

No, the miracle is that Dr. Big Guy called the house Friday night and let us know that somehow, by the grace of God, and the prayers on our behalf, my mother's tumor is shrinking.

I believe in the world of pancreatic cancer this is defined as: incredibly freakin' rare.

Dear God,

Please keep the miracles coming.

Thanks,

Amy- your favorite sinner

Been There, Done That

Every couple of weeks, I like to cruise on over to Cosmo online and find their "Sex Position of the Week".

I print it out and stick it in the husband's sock drawer, or in his closet.

We hope to think we'll have sex again someday when the kids go off to college.

Puff Stuff

What?

This has to go straight into the file of "stupidest shit I have heard in a while".

"I am definitely honored that a black man is running for the Presidency, but to be honest, he has to do something for black people."

-P. DIDDY
on Barack Obama's run for the presidency

Alright, follow me, as this stupidity is a two-part utterance.

First, why is he "honored" that a black man is running for President. Is he doing it for P Diddy or at his request, or in lieu of his candidacy?

I suppose he's never heard of Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, or Alan Keyes. Was he just as honored in 2004? I find it interesting to note that during 2004's Presidential Election, Diddy's Vote or Die campaign publicly supported John Kerry and specifically the defeat of GW. He did not support a black candidate? Things that make you go hmmmmmm......Right.

Second, He has to do what for black people? I thought he was running for President of the United States, not Kappa Alpha Psi. He is supposed to do something for ALL Americans, right? Or, did I miss the point.

I am really surprised that most of the black voters have camped with Hilary. Assuming Diddy would endorse her, what has she done for black people? Have any of the other candidates "doing something for black people?"
And, why would he have to do something for African Americans? Is Obama black? Is Obama white? People may see this as fence-sitting, but he seems to be running as an American, to be a President of America.

btw- Obama has my vote.

It Just Feels Good

We do little bits of charity. This week, we packed a couple of boxes for Operation Christmas Child. Next week, our family will give to the food pantry, and the week after, we donating food for four families to make their Thanksgiving meal. What's four cans of chicken broth among friends, huh?

We you know that your hands are tiny, but useful, it opens you up to the world.

We are Family

Two moms, a pirate, Lightning McQueen, and even Cleopatra herself.
