Wow! From my father the die-hard Democrat. He wouldn't vote for a Republican for any reason and now I think he is real sorry. He was all about Obama too.

I'm only posting this here because I can't post it on Facebook. It'd start way too much ruckus with folks I have to deal with a lot. This is still my safe area to be a bit politically incorrect.

Yeah!! in a short time I will be out of here for a week! I'll still be reachable and availible by phone, but I'll be out of here. I plan on spending the week writing and learning Chinese and maybe playing with my camera. Oooo, I wonder if I can find a dance class during the day? That would be fun!

Pretty soon, I'll be able to understand what they are really saying on Firefly.

I feel like I have totally abandoned everyone over here. I'm sorry. I have been sucked in by facebook. And, now, I have started another blog at blogspot.

In appology, here are two pictures that I took this past weekend.

This girl is pretty impressive, but I like the style of Orit better.

This is so totally cool!!!

I so want to grow up and dance like Orit Maftsir. I'd love to see her live, but I don't think I'm going to Isreal anytime soon. She is so joyful when she dances. It makes me happy just to watch her.

Looks. I hazz new piktur.

*le sigh*

Nothing on my computer I want to read.

*le sigh*  Was really wishing I could make dance class tonight, but it doesn't look like it is happening.  My low back has been really bad off for about 3 weeks now.  It almost completely went out last Wednesday - couldn't hardly stand or walk.  The left side of my pelvic girdle rotated anteriorly.  I call that getting pretzeled up.  At least it was still level and hadn't shifted down and THEN rotated.  It happens. 

 

I've been going to the chiropractor once or twice a week for a while now.  My back hasn't been in this bad a shape in a long time.  I guess I'm overdoing it, not sure where though.  I can see trying to play lumberjack and chop logs in the back yard, Friday a week ago, and then go skating 2 hours on Sunday was probably a bad idea.  Probably why I had to go to the chiropractor twice the next week, Monday and Friday, with a near total collapse on Wednesday. It could be the added weight lifting putting pressure on my spine or it could be one of my exercise classes or it could be an exercise classes that I love. Individually, it could be nothing, but I guess collectively, it is too much. 

 

This evening, I decided to go get a massage instead of going to dance. I tried to walk my mile long lap around the parade ground at work and my back started acting up and pulling really bad. I was hoping it would loosen it, but it seemed to only make it angry. Maybe some good rub-rub will help. I get so tired of being in pain. A friend gave me some mobic a couple of weeks ago (just as I was thinking about calling the doctor for a ‘sript) and I’m not sure that was a good thing. I might have started doing more because I was hurting less. Eh, who knows. It’s probably a catch-22. All I know is I’m very tired of this. It hurts to sit, it hurts to walk, it hurts to sleep. I do believe it could even be making me a bit cranky.

 

Anyway, done whining now. Thanks for listening.

 

 

This is a great article,...if only it were true. I had to read all the way to the end. I wasn’t sure if Bono was really in favor of Obama or only the image of the virtual Obama and what he, and America, could stand for.

I agree with the sentiments written. I think America could stand for this, but President Obama is certainly the wrong man for the job.  It is scary that people can't see him and what he stands for, that they buy into all the hype, and don’t look at who he actually IS putting in office. Very scary indeed.

My father, the die-hard democrat, who only votes for democrats (and voted for Obama), became disillusion with him 2 weeks after he took office. I had the chance to talk to a young man in the army yesterday who had nothing good to say about Obama at all. The funny part was that young man, a combat engineer, was being deployed to Afghanistan. He wasn’t upset about going, but very glad to be leaving the states and everything that is here, including the President. He apologized because the President is his Commander in Chief, but I reassured him that I didn't vote for him and did not contribute anything to this Obamanation.

I just hope he gets out of office without doing any permanent damage.

I was amazed how hard it was a find something for him.  I'd been looking everywhere.  I'd called every rescue and pet adoption group in a 50 mile radius.  No one would take him.  I posted him on Facebook and made my friends feel guilty cause he was going to the pound.  I harrassed folks at work and their friends.  Well, I hope they do well together.

Greetings all you wonderful people, 

I am feeling really good today.  For the first time in a week, I woke up not feeling tired.  For the first time in a long while, I'm feeling hopeful for the future.

Just thought I'd share my joy of today.

This looks like a lot of fun.  I have an idea called the Hammered Hafla Hippie and involves possibly belly dancing to Can't Touch This.

....if I can put it all together.

I'll also be attending the Veil Technique workshop.

What's the difference between a Cajun zoo and a regular zoo?

In a regular zoo, you get the common name of the animal, the scientific name, and the habitate.
In a Cajun zoo, you get the common name and the recipe.

Laissez les bons temps rouler!

Well, I just walked 3.5 miles in an hour.  I don't know if that is good or not or how fast that is.  I'm pretty whoopt.

Gabriel came to the Lord and said, "I have to talk to you .
I have some Cajuns up here in Heaven who are causing some problems .
They are swinging on the pearly gates, sliding down stairway to Heaven, and my horn is missing!
They play their accordions and dance all night!
Crawfish shells and beer cans are all over the streets of gold and they're making sausage, boudin, and cracklins on every corner.
There is rice all over the clouds!
They have eaten almost every animal up here!
Some folks are walking around with one wing missing .
There is barbecue sauce all over their robes and some of them aren't even wearing their halos, saying they won't wear it because it doesn't have an LSU logo on it.

The Lord said, "I made them special, as I did you, my angel .
Heaven is home to all my children .
If you really want to know about problems, let's call the Devil and see how he is dealing with his Cajuns."
The Devil answered the phone, "Hello? Dang it, hold on!"
The Devil returned to the phone and said, "Hello God, what can I do for you?"
God replied, "Tell me what kind of probl ems you are having down there with the Cajuns you have there."
The Devil said, "Wait a minute," and puts the Lord on hold .
After 5 minutes he returned to the phone, and said, "Okay, I'm back . What's the question?"
God asked again, "What kind of probl ems are you having with the Cajuns down there?"
The Devil said, "Man, I don't believe this.. . Hold on, God.."
This time, the Devil was gone for 15 minutes . The Devil returned and said, "I'm sorry, God, I can't talk right now .
These coon asses have done put out the fire, and are holding a benefit jambalaya dinner to install air conditioning!!"
