Monday 11/16/2009 Truth be told

I’ve never found men with long hair attractive but a nice shaved head or close cut is looking kind of hot lately.

I owe the fact that I actually graduated from High School, to the Blizzards of ’79.

I can be easily persuaded to do almost anything, by food.

I took part in a major prank in High School and didn’t get caught

My energy level is either 125% or zero

Part of why I got married at 19, spite

I can watch Law and Order over and over again

There is something wrong with a biker dude in biker dude clothes, pushing a grocery cart full of bags up to his bike and standing there looking confused.

If you’re over the age of 5, you really shouldn’t wear a fake fuzzy tail at anytime, for any reason.

You have every right to hang your outside Christmas light up, on the last few warm days of November. But they should never, ever be turned on before Thanksgiving. Just as importantly, they must come down in January.

To my knowledge and I'll admit I'm not an expert... but Frosty the Snowman, Santa and Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer were not invited to the birth of baby Jesus... They should not be portrayed as guests at the occasion by their placement next to the Nativity scene in your yard.

Everyone should have at least one “adult” encounter in life that is wild, crazy and out of character.

If you donate money to a cause you believe in, just once ask that your name be listed as anonymous… it’s fun to hear the speculation about who the generous person is and believe it or not, it really makes you feel great!

Keep people guessing. I once took one of those fake cats that looks like someone’s dead stuffed cat and placed it on a blanket, set it in my cart at Petsmart… I walked around talking to it… when people came to pet it…OMG I loved the look on the faces when they went to pet the kitty… my husband almost had to sit down he was laughing so hard.

At the store, I’ve been in the 10 items or less line, with 15 items, sorry.

I was at a party where adult toys were the prizes. I’m not a prude, I applaud the innovation, but really should electrical cords be involved? Just imagine if there was a power surge…or god forbid… a blackout!

I’m the only person I know who actually drinks 8 glasses of water a day.

I’ve never smoked a cigarette.

I’ve found some of my best friends from the most unlikely situations and strangest moments of my life. I thank God I was paying attention.

I really have trouble asking for help. While I feel like that’s all I do, I’ve been told I need to do it more.

I’ve discovered it’s a sad day when you realize you’re not the super woman you’d like to think you are.

I’m beginning to hate the emotional sneak attack that happens many, many times a day. I may be allowing it to surface more these days but to find yourself at your desk with big drippy tears in your eyes does not portray the image of a calm cool professional person I pretend to be 5 days a week.

You will never know why people love each other. Be careful of your comments when or if they hit a rough patch. Your friendship could be jeopardized.


I’ve learned that the truth cannot always be told. Feelings will be hurt and miss-understandings will happen. Just be a genuinely nice person.
