You Know he Loves you When....

Yes, I am on a sweet vacation. Away from the torture of school and the bs of class and those idiots (we all know who they are!). I decided as part of my plan to do nothing I would catch up on all those movies that I haven't had a chance to see, since those who know me know that I am a movie nut. Now I love all types of movies but there are a few that's taken me a while to watch due to time, interest, or just not getting to it by compromising. You would think it would be "Anne of Green Gables" (yes, I bought the set) but no my hubby sat through that with me and didn't say a word. Then it must have been "When Harry met Sally" NOPE, watched that at least 6 times since I bought that one and yep there he was without a peep. So this week I thought I would push my luck and rent "Brokeback Mountain." There was a few complaints first but there he was sitting there, covering his eyes on more that one occasion. But yes he watched the whole thing with me...now that is frigin love.. and I have a wild suspicion that our marriage is gonna be a lasting thing now that we have climbed that hill. Yep, I might even have to sit though an episode of Star Trek (vomit!!) for this one:-D

"Ageism...The Rulebook of LIfe"

I often hear people remark with that look of sarcasm in their eyes "why he's too old to be in school" or "why would she do that at her age?" It then brings me to the question of "what is the cutoff age for living your dream?" As I flip through the manual of life, I cannot seem to find the section on "times up, you're too old" We all live everyday by the rules society embarks upon us and holds us accountable to. Too often, we become socialized into how our lives should flow instead of the reality ofwhat it is. Everyone has an opinion of what "YOU" should be doing as opposed to what your actually doing. At what point do we all surrender to the pressures of the handbook and flip to page 269 and diligently do what wer're expected to do. When do we relinguish our dreams? And more importantly why would we even consider doing so? We live one short life and we have the complete autonomy over our own outcomes. We get to choose what we do, when we do it, and how we want to do it. The satisfaction of accomplishment never grows old, never goes out of style and always fits. A life with no regrets is most satisfying and at the end of day, the year, or your life depending on how far you look ahead it will be just your own conscience you'll have to answer to and live up to. Deviation from the "norm" does not make something wrong, it just meansYOU chose a different path, however, it's one that YOU chose, regardless. In the end, whatever you embark on is a good thing if it makes you happy, furthers your mind and clears your conscience from yourself. This is something that no one can ever take away from you. Don't live for the moment but live in it and you'll find true success. They say true success cannot be measured but I beg to differ. It's not the material things that displays how well you've lived it's the smile on your face and the people you surround yourself with. After all is said, in the end you'll find that the only people left around you are your true friends.

Don't Wish it all Away.....

I am an avid complainer. Yes, like most of us I can spontaneously pick out things to complain about. I don't need time to reflect or really thing about them they just pop out at me. Why? Why do we complain about so much when there's so much to enjoy and appreciate? Think about it for a moment... as I am typing this right now...what wouldn't a blind person do to be able to see this computer screen or how much would an amputee love to be able to type. I complain about simple things and most of all time...wishing it away like I was going to live forever and like I was going to see the people around me for the rest of my life. I'm not. While we are busy wishing time away...our life continues on without us knowing, and people move on, move away, or die and then, well, we wish we could of had more time. So just for a minute we should stop and consider this: While our lives may be hectic, sad, tearful, and just downright mean sometimes...we ARE alive and we always have a choice on how we want to view things. We have abilities that some people will never be able to experience. While I count down the days to my Christmas vacation I have to stop and think that maybe studying for the next 8 days won't be so bad. Maybe, it will give me more time with my friends, my family, my inlaws, and to myself. For we never really know what the new year has in store and it may not hold all the things that we hold dear to us now. So enjoy life, the good and what we sometimes refer to as the bad, and take it with a grain of salt. Tomorrow may not always come and today just may be it so put on your sunglasses and look at it from a different perspective and you may just be surprised and enlightened.

SOS...Help me...

Help, I am trapped in a small room about 10x11 with pinkish walls. I have not been able to leave it for over 12 hours now, only for food and water. It does have a window and lighting but I am told I must look at the computer screen for prolonged periods of time while reading meaningless articles about the 1800's and some kinda nuns who were grey. Who ever constricted this plan was cruel and should be found and shot. Can you pass this message along to some legal authorities and see if you can find me so I can kill the rat bastard who is making me do this. PlEASE you are my only hope. I don't know how much longer I'll last....I am getting weak and I can slowly feel my sanity drain from.my body. I am losing consciousness as I read....I have to go now the voices tell me to keep reading and I don't want to upset them.......

Tortured and abandoned.
I can't remember my name...I think it is Jeanne Mance or Ralph Klein...Oh God the end is near.....Shut up you fool...No you shut up...shhhhh....they'll hear you......

It's all in a Name

When I lived in Ontario a few years back my friend put the name "eener" on me which is of course just my name spelled backwards. This then became my name at the workplace and I would answer to it just as if it was written on my birth certificate:-D

Funny thing is it turns out according to the dictionary that "eener" actually means

"A nickname for a girl that goes to a stupid school."
Used in a sentence: OMG, that girl is a total Eener.

How appropriate is that? All this time the truth was right before my eyes and I didn't even realize it. I mean I always thought that school was stupid but now I have official documentation that confirms what I've been complaining about all along. I knew it! I knew that it just wasn't my inituition, it apparently is fact. This sheds a new light to the line "it's all in a name" in my case this is true indeed.
Eener....
