Break Away

“Sometimes people put up walls, not to keep others out, but to see who cares enough to break them down.” ~Unknown

This is a song that I seem to always go back to. It's one I can relate to and one I can understand. Unfortunately, some things are easier said, than done.

Second Glance

I had the T.V. on tonight and my daughter was sitting next to me so we were gabbing during the commercials. I don't even remember what we were talking about when my eyes wandered to the T.V. and saw "just another cell phone commercial". Well, that is, until I took a second glance. What I thought was long hair in a pony tail.....well, you'll have to watch it to see what I mean.

I couldn't help but laugh and I don't mean just a gentle chuckle. I mean a full belly laugh. A damn near snort worthy laugh. Don't ask me why because it is really disgusting. I'm blaming it on the fact that I may be delusional due to lack of sleep and taking cold medicine. Naw...not really. I just find it funny, and sometimes, the dumbest things are what I find the most funny. That's just me and one of my quirks :)

Happy Valentine's Day

I am...

I am stronger than you think I am!

“Life is filled with happiness, sadness, tears, smiles, laughter and other emotions but when life gets you down, just be strong about it and keep your head up high and have faith in all things in life. Always remember: Life doesn’t require that we be the best, only that we try our best.” — Unknown

Open Happiness

I had missed a few of the commercials during the Super Bowl (stupid laundry) this year so I meandered over to hulu.com to see if anything I had missed was worth seeing. In my opinion, the commercials aren't getting better and I wasn't overly impressed with this years selection, but what do I know?

Yes, there were a few funny ones and of course, I always love the Clydesdale ones, especially "Clydesdale Circus" and "SoBe Lizard Lake 3D" was cute too. The one that stuck out for me, though, was the commercial Coke did called "Heist". I love the creativity that went into it and each time I watched it, it just made me smile. Everyone can use a few extra smiles in their life :)

Whooooo....am I?

I haven't taken one of these silly quizzes in quite some time and I happened upon this one tonight. "Are you a Pirate or a Ninja?". Goofy questions. Some were like "wtf?" and some were cute! They even had one "The pet best suited for me as a Pirate or Ninja is..." and one of the choices was a TURTLE!! Well duh, that was a given :p

So I guess I am a Ninja, thank goodness! The wardrobe is much more fashionable AND I can play with sharp swords...better watch out! *giggles*!

I can say that I have...

Music is a huge part of me. It's something that I enjoy every day, and with out it, I think I'd be a really stressed out person. It helps me keep my focus, it calms me down, and it just gives me an outlet, a place to go when reality sucks.

I am always on the alert for new artists to listen to and I was doing random searches on last.fm one night and I came across a group called Angels And Airwaves. They are a newly formed alternative rock band, coming together in 2005 with their first album in 2006. Interesting group with interesting songs, with Everything's Magic as one of my favourites.

Have a listen...
