"a sobering thought: what if at this very moment i am living up to my full potential?" -jane wagner
my dad went to high school with a guy they called the "frito bandito". he got high and tried to rob a frito lay truck... munchies suck.
i went to the beach one night and stopped at jack in the box at 5 a.m. for some coffee... the lady honestly asked "would you like a jack taco with that?".... ummmmm, NO. creme and sugar will be fine.
there is a time and a place for everything... for the first time ever, an original bum asked me for cash at the drive in atm. you cant say you dont have any, so you just pull off quickly...
my roommate, holly, used to get mad when she had to leave the house in the morning to go to class... she would tell her mom, "i wish i was my cat, so i didn't have to go to school."... doesnt that apply to everything? " i wish i was my cat.... enter your complaint here."
did you ever lock the bathroom door and play in the water with your pants off when you were little? .... holly did that too.
a bottle of wine crashed the other night, and my friend anna threw a bounty paper towel on it... needless to say, it didnt work. when i was mopping it up, and came across the napkin... all i could say to those in the room was, "remember my 80 year old grandma that never had her period?... well she is having them all... right now."
i think everyones id picture is always so horrible because if you think about it, no one looks good when they are found dead. they have to have an accurate photo.
well folks... these are the random thoughts floating in my mind right now. its almost 12 on a friday, and i am staying in. just couldnt think about much else, and wouldnt have a good time if i left the house. can you sense the sarcasm in my voice? lovely.

i got an assignment to make the alphabet with random objects but there had to be a theme.. i couldnt think of one, so i did it all on my street... and yes, the "k" is dog shiv... enjoy!
my skin is not flawless.
like the sidewalks that lead us to our destinations,
every crack, every mark screams a story.
the ink is like tiny fingers pushing thier way into the wet pavement.
the initials and "i love you"s drying in the sun
and leaving an impression forever.
the laughter heard down the street,
and hearts pounding in fear they will get caught.
but we are innocent.
creating memories that will be spoken of for years.
my skin is not flawless.
like the tree, my scars show my age.
character that developes only in the storms,
these life lessons beyond our control.
the clouds form and shower the soul that dreams to grow.
and the axe that was too weak to bring me down.
my skin is not flawless
but i am beautiful all the same.
this tree stands where you want to be
but i will not move
you can cut me down piece by piece
but these roots are solid.
kill me on the surface,
but you should kow better...
take the pieces of me and buld something great
because people will ask when they see the scars
my skin is not flawless.
every freckle, scar, and mark screams a story.
take me away,
take away my marks,
chop down this tree...
but believe me when i say,
these roots are too strong.
kill me on the surface, but these roots still remain,
and they hold more tales of my lifetime left in the dirt from the ones before me.
my skin is the ink, but this heart holds the pages.
my skin is not flawless.... it is beautiful.

may i recommend a book to all.... i think if people started to just work on themselves, instead of trying to put down /or influence others, not only would you be able to tolerate your self, but maybe others would too.... try checking out "the mastery of love" and "the four agreements" by don miguel ruiz.
"only one person can make you happy in life, and that is yourself"
other than the above great words of wisdom, i will leave you with this....
"This is my body. And I can do whatever I want to it. I can push it. Study it. Tweak it. Listen to it. Everybody wants to know what I'm on. What am I on? I'm on my bike busting my ass six hours a day. What are you on?" -Lance Armstrong

So rachael and alisha always post things intended for viewers to reply, and i think that is a wonderful idea. i will try to keep up with the top ten as well, but for now, i leave it up to you guys....
what is your single most guilty pleasure?
and for the sake of jesus christo (in a spanish accent), do NOT say laguna beach or paris hilton.
