Runaway fast as you can



This is how I'm feeling about Valentine's Day right now.



"and I was satisfied being in love with a lie."

Happy Late Valentine's Day

Mine didn't go so well. I spent the entire evening with a very sick grandparent in the hospital. He has pneumonia and that is very very bad at his age and he's already very weak as it is. I'm praying for him. Please do the same

My boyfriend had to work yesterday as well. He said that he doesn't believe in Valentine's Day. Is this just a cop out? It really annoyed me that he wouldn't/didn't get me anything thing for Valentine's Day. He couldn't even bother to get me a card. I got him a card. It's the thought that counts....
He said that Valentine's was a made up day for stupid people that think they are in love, to which I replied,"Wow people who think they are in love must be suckers huh?" His answer,"Hell yes." Self-righteous prick. I just can't believe how insensitive he is over the entire situation but obviously I do believe in it so why trash all over it? I don't know, it really has me thinking. He did something else shady this weekend that I can't get over either. We went out to the bar where he pretty much knows everyone and I really don't. So while he's making his rounds I decided to sit with a group of people that I had met previously there. It was a group of men coworkers and they were having a going away party for the person I knew the best. I am sitting there and joking around with them when boyfriend comes up and starts joking to which everyone laughs and says to all of us,"Amanda, don't ever try to be as funny as I am. You can never be funny like me. Your humor level is ehh about a 7, mine is a ten. So don't." I was completely embarrassed. I almost cried right there. Please tell me Im being oversensitive or something. I went into quiet mode after that and he kept asking what was wrong so I told him and he said he was joking and then proceeded to be mad at me and argue with me because I'm too "sensitive". I totally saw a different side of this person that I thought was perfect for me. I really need to make some decisions. Am I too sensitive or is he too insensitive?

Cold

If your love was a season
I'm sure it would be winter
cold and bitter
robbing my warmth
you stay only a short period
but leave permanent hurt.
I can feel you coming long before your arrival
but I'm never prepared for that freezing wind
I fear for my survival
no coat of armor protects me from you ...

Prince is a Princess

Photobucket


Never believe a person when they tell you the sex of your kitten. Also, learn how to check the sex of your kitten. I have have my precious Prince for almost six
months and he has been a boy that entire time. I even proclaimed Prince and Appollonia husband and wife and called their fights love spats. Starting two days ago, Prince
began to act strangely and meow and moan very oddly. We thought he wanted to go outside because maybe a girl cat was in heat. Boy were we wrong. Prince is a Princess. My
little loveyboy is a loveygirl. I dont know what to think. Is she sexually confused or has she thought we were morons this entire time? Maybe the latter of the two. It feels
very strange right now because I only know Prince as a boy. I will have to get used to it but the name will remain the same, for obvious reasons. My little girl is a Catwoman
now.

Things I miss

Yes this is a little superficial but I really miss my hair. My long hair. I miss being able to curl my hair or even putting it in a simple ponytail...this growing out process is a pain in the ass

SNOW

This weather is absolutely crazy. I can’t believe that we are having this weather in Texas. In Texas, we are known for 100+ degree temperatures, not ice storms and inches of snow. If and when we get snow or ice it only lasts for a day, if that. It has been three days of ice and sleet, which meant no work or school, and last night it began to snow. It’s nothing if not absolutely beautiful outside. Yet the weather is like a beautiful woman, beautiful but dangerous. I have been stuck in the house all week except for yesterday when I ventured out for the night. What a big mistake that was. As I was walking from the car to my cousins apartment I slipped and fell, resulting in my head hitting the ground. My head doesn’t hurt at all, but my entire neck area is in pain. It is supposed whiplash. Isn’t that crazy??
As a kid growing up in Texas, snow happens once in a blue moon. As soon as I woke up this morning I had such childish ideas of making snow angels and sliding down the street on a homemade sled. As soon as my cousins son showed up at my mothers we engaged in a snowball fight and made snow angels. We began making snow men but that it definitely harder than it looks. If there is still snow tomorrow, I am going to try to make one on my own. I wish that I had my neice and nephew to share this with but that’s a story for another time.
The superbowl is on Sunday and this weather is not changing anytime soon. Is it a Superbowl curse? We’ve never had weather like this before. I live in Dallas, Tx if you guys didn’t already know that.
Could it be global warming? That thought really scares me. We seriously need to start making changes because we are in trouble. I have been trying to figure out how I can minimize my carbon footprint and try to engage others to do the same. A while back I was considering taking a sewing class so that I could make recyclable bags for shopping instead of the plastic bags.
Once in the environment, it takes months to hundreds of years for plastic bags to breakdown. As they decompose, tiny toxic bits seep into soils, lakes, rivers, and the oceans, said Cobb. Taken from Are Plastic Grocery Bags Sacking the Environment?

I didn’t have the funds to take the sewing class but soon I will and I think I may go ahead and take it. We really need to start taking care of the environment. I want my future children to be able to enjoy Texas weather and on occasion make a snowman or woman. 

On a much happier note, here are some shots of my little snow adventure today. Sorry for the quality, I had to take with my camera phone. Enjoy.

This is after I fell and bumped my head..

mellon collie and the infinite sadness

Baby, I got a plan
Run away fast as you can






AND I ALWAYS FIND YEAH I ALWAYS FIND SOMETHING WRONG. YOU'VE BEEN PUTTING UP WITH MY SHIT FOR WAY TOO LONG....
IM SO GIFTED AT FINDING WHAT I DON'T LIKE THE MOST, SO I THINK ITS TIME FOR US TO HAVE A TOAST.



MBDTF has two killer break up songs.....

On a bathroom wall I wrote I'd rather argue with you than to be with someone else...



I'm jamming these on replay today.

Things used to be, now they not
Anything but us is who we are
Disguising ourselves as secret lovers
We’ve become public enemies
We walk away like strangers in the street
Gon for eternity
We erased one another
So far from where we came
With so much of everything, how do we leave with nothing
Lack of visual empathy equates the meaning of L-O-V-E
Hatred and attitude tear us entirely
