It's kinda really frustrating to have so many different ideas going through my head all at the same time and being unable to just settle on one and get it done.

And then I think, If I were a giraffe, I wouldn't give a rat's patootie about all these crazy "ideas", I'd just be munching on some leaves with my head in the clouds and not knowing if I'd be dinner for some hungry lion or whatever it is that happens to giraffes who don't pay attention.
Like, do they get munched on by lions?
Do they wander around all tall and majestic and still kinda awkward and weird looking with their crazy long necks and their knobbly knees and think about how bad it would suck if the wind kicked up real hard suddenly and knocked them over?
Do they worry about random birds flying smack into the back of their head?

Sometimes I feel like I don't know anything.

Ok...completely unbiased perspective here....pretend you & I aren't friends for a minute.

WHY aren't you a published writer????

You are completely majestic...*sigh*

Giraffe's are awesome!

I dunno what to say other than...you keep yer' head in the clouds...heck with Lion's...keep doin' whatever it is you do.

It's beautiful.

Please write a book or something. The world would be a better place with your thought's in it.

Ok..shutting up now...I'm such a pushy dork...lol

iTOREtheSKY update of life & randomness...ramblings..etc... # 49601 (lol)

umm.I called my hairdresser,Erica like 10 minutes ago. She totally yelled at me as I was trying to make an appointment with her. LOL

I was like....doooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooood...chill out woman!
(she hates that I let my hair grow out & then she has to cut it, after like 3 months.)

So ummm...yeah...I made an appointment..and she TOLD me we are going for the mohawk...no faux-hawk this time... lol...She's sick of having to do this fake hair cut on me..that I should just own up to wanting something cool & stop pretending to fit in. lol

So I guess this is what is to be. I'm still gonna try to get her just to go all faux-hawk on me. Dunno if I am all that into having a mohawk again.

Now if I could get the color pomegranate again,perhaps I'd consider this....anyways...ummm....yeah so..."Hi" :)
Carry on.

A huge frowny face at that hollery hairdresser, Jim. Cancel the appointment and the girls here will "do" your hair for you over the net. You won't have to tip us, either.

K, first get some of the coconut oil you have for cooking. If ya don't do that kind, let me know; we'll pick summat else you already have. Anyway, put some CO on your hands and start faux-ing your own hawk. Leave it the length it is now; why not, if it's gonna be a hawk anyway? It it's looking too long, I think it'd maybe work to cut some off the top, front and back after you hawk it.

Hmm, I think that edit should be to everyone; the more opinions the better...


Or is it "too many barbers will ruin James' hair"?

Yes, I'm sure she already has a title for the book. Something like "Judgement Day: 101 Ways to Meet the Approval of Wildlife".

hahahahaha yer' so awesome Jilly...I know right...? her yellin' at me n junk! She always does..I'm sort of used to it. Because my hair grows so darn quick...I really should have it cut like every 3 weeks at the outside best...but yanno..it's like $25 after I tip her,and heaven forbid i do a color..we're lookin' at at minimum around $75 because my hair is dark brown & takes like a gazillion yrs for it to lighten enough to blonde to put a color in it.

She's a great hairdresser or i wouldn't use her. Plus she has 2 bull mastiffs who are so freakin' adorable & she brings them in sometimes to the shop & I get to play with them lol. I do however think I should ask her for a discount every time she mentions my ex-wife and talks about our dog. lol Good times?

I was just ordering some Sunday School crafts from Oriental Trading. It's a great page for any kind of presents or craft, or even candy you can buy in bulk.

I'm just proud of myself for not forgetting and 2 days before class digging around to find an appropriate game or craft that relates to what we're talking about. Go me!

I do a lot of dumb stuff. I get involved in things I know I shouldn't sometimes, and I have no excuse for that. All I can say is...I do a lot of dumb stuff.

But it's worse, far worse, when the dumb stuff I do hurts someone else. Someone not involved. Someone I would never, in a million years, want to see hurt in any way, least of all because of me.

There are moments in my life when I want to crawl out of my skin, get as far away from myself as possible, hide my face, disappear...and I hate that I can be so cowardly. I hate when I let me get me like that.
Finding the strength to stand up on my own two feet, look people in the eye and say, "I screwed that up. Big time. I'm completely ashamed of myself, and I'm sorry, so sorry, that it happened"...I don't know. I try. That's all I can do, just try.

I am imperfect. I am spacey, and weak in ways that I'm ashamed of, and clumsy and weird and I eat too much ice cream and don't exercise and sometimes I yell at my kids and I can't focus on one thing very long and I break things and get in arguments with inanimate objects...
I'm a mess.

But I know the value of love, and friendship, and I'm trying every day, every moment, to be better at both...to trust enough to bring all my flaws and insanity to the table, lay it all out there, and say "This is me. It's not great, but it's what I've got, and I'm willing to share it with you, if you want".

...kind of like a little kid who shares their broken toys, or their half-eaten and slobbered on food.

I am not ashamed that I just now read this & it made me cry.

Cristen... from one friend to another...nothing else. You should never beat yourself up for you past,present or future.

You are YOU! perfectly flawed. Wonderful. You are created in God's Image,no matter how you feel.
Today...yesterday...tomorrow...or a thousand suns from now.

You are perfection in His eyes.

and yanno what,.....to many of us here in CC,yer' pretty stinkin' awesome too.

God has designed us all for some grand purpose. We may not know what it is,but know it is SOMETHING AWESOME!

It drives me completely insane when a movie seems on the verge of ending for the entire last hour of it.
Like...it would make sense to end it there...and there...and there...and there, too...and the music is getting louder...and then something happens and seems so final...
But NOPE, there's another 45 minutes left! Amazing!
...annoying...
