red red wine
Posted in food, me on 5 June, 2008 | 2 Comments »
i knew there was a reason i liked drinking red wine.
Things I know right now:
1. I am a stronger, more solid and healthy person today than I have ever been in my whole entire, live-long life.
2. I love who I am, who my kids are, and the places we have been together over the last few years. It has been hard, but seeing the outcome [...]
Universal Craziness

Can anyone explain to me why the universe gives us exactly what we don’t want and keeps from us that which we crave? What sort of fucked up lesson is there in all that? If I am trusting my instincts and listening to my heart and it tells me I crave/need/desire A…but B [...]

I’m apparently a little cranky.
Precious Things (Tori Amos)
So I ran faster
But it caught me here
Yes my loyalties turned
Like my ankle
In the seventh grade
Running after billy
Running after the rain
These precious things
Let them bleed
Let them wash away
These precious things
Let them break their hold over me
He said youre really an ugly girl
But I like [...]

I am quite adept at self-sabotage. Much better than most people I have met, actually. It really is an art form, this self sabotage. Especially when one convinces themselves they don’t do it; but I do, or at least I can. And I know that I do, or can. [...]
John…as in the bible

Jason has been attempting to get me (and Dana) to invade our chai space with a little bible as of late. Specifically he wants us to read John, or the book of John, or something like that…I’m not sure of the correct way to reference it. Anyway…. Jason loaned me [...]
Broken

So I was thinking about life today and how we make it what it is and how we can take experiences that are completely debilitating and turn them into something amazing; the ultimate learning experience if you will. I was also listening to the lyrics to ‘All the Way Down’ from the incredible movie, [...]
