Crazy as fuck week ahead.

First off my car is officially dead. I am getting a new one before Ani starts school but until then a rental car.

Tomorrow I have to go get a new copy of Ani's social security card
Thursday Ani registers for school and my mom is coming up to join me when i enroll her.
Friday I have a lot of loose ends to tie up for the wedding
Saturday I am taking Ani and Leni to the water park with my mom and then we are going to get my rental car.

Sunday is going to be brutal. I am going to have to pack the whole car full of stuff. I am doing hair and makeup for the wedding. Sunday after I get all packed and shit I will head out to Brandy's to hang with everyone else at the bachelorette party. I spend the night Sunday and Monday is the big day. I will be worn the fuck out by the end of the day monday when i pick the kids back up.

Not to mention I have 100lbs of laundry to do before I leave Sunday, I have to burn the wedding music, Make the centerpieces, Make the birdseed pouches and much more.

If I don't post until Tuesday you know why.

Morning

2008-08-04T07:09:00.000-07:00

Blow wind blow
Boldly from the North
Fill me up with strength and purpose
Help me stride fourth
Somewhere deep inside I understand
Seasons change as we walk into a different colored land

She changes everything she touches

Buffysummers is moving along nicely! Five more levels until my mount :)

I hate shows

2008-08-02T10:03:00.000-07:00

I am not going to the show tonight. Not because I cant, but because I am tired of the energy it takes to enjoy yourself in this town. If you want to go out you are bombarded by retards, hipsters, elitists, or whores with serious problems.

No. I think I will stay home tonight and finish that book and do some destruction on WoW. I am so beyond Denton and its shit that it is not even funny. I am really proud of Lars though. He busted his ass this week to make this show happen. He busted his ass to make ever instrument he is playing tonight. I just hope that people take the time to appreciate it or he may get his feelings hurt.

I want Brandy to come over tonight, wonder if that is possible?? I will call her in a a bit. Lars went to go get us Doughnuts for breakfast and the kids are watching Noggin as usual.

My mom is coming to get Ani in a bit and pretty soon it will be just me and Leni.

I am almost level 23 with my alliance character Buffysummers! I also just got my succubus!! She has thigh highs and a garter belt and whips people...hawt.

See ya.

Tonight we celebrate Lughnasadh

2008-07-31T13:35:00.000-07:00

Today is a sacred day. I just finished making my Lugh bread (no I did not use my bread machine that is cheating). I am boiling corn cobs for dinner which will then be used for altar. The rest is for me alone.

Right now I am reading

2008-07-31T10:25:00.000-07:00

Magic my cat brings me presents

Why is it that everything bad happens at once?

2008-07-31T09:39:00.000-07:00

Worst week of the year I think.

I feel completely used and abandoned by pretty much everyone that I have a relationship with. I am confused, pissed and really depressed. I got in a huge fight with my in-laws who hate me now. My good friend ignored an honest cry for help. There are motherfuckers calling me names all over weshotjr because of ONE comment I made about how I thought that a video was degrading to our music scene. My husband and I are in rocky ground, half the time I feel so abandoned by him that my life feels hopeless. There is a manipulative person trying to stir up trouble in my life. This week has been literally me either sleeping or waking up to cry for several hours. I will never open up to anyone again because in the end you never know if you are going to get burned. My best friend Brandy has been the only good thing in my life, because she is my rock. I love you Brandy and nothing else matters. Give me some time to get out of my funk and say a prayer for me because I am out of herbs.

This wins

I love Argento. This movie had what seemed to be a more solid plot than his other movies but not as much artistic flare. It was a great movie for those of you who like an old horror flick. I recommend it.

This morning

2008-07-24T09:42:00.000-07:00

I went to the Dentist and got a cleaning. No cavities for me! But my Husband and Ani are a totally different story, they have 8 collectively.

Can't wait to take Ani to get that shit done ::eyeroll::

Poor Ani, last week she got 5 immunizations, now she has to get 4 fillings...all just to start school which will be the beginning of 14 years of HELL.

I did a dungeon last night with my Warlock character, got some good XP and loot.

I think my mom and I are taking the girls to a water park on Saturday, which as long as it doesn't get too hot should be a blast.

2008-07-23T18:23:00.000-07:00

Brandy and I have been given the chance to make a comic book for ONI comics. We have four months to give them our pitch. After a serious brainstorm session the other night (FOR HOURS) we have the beginnings of a solid and INCREDIBLE story.That's all I am saying for now.

I love you Joss

Its 7:08 am on Tuesday morning

2008-07-15T05:08:00.000-07:00

and I have been up since 5 am.

I went to bed around 3 last night and woke up at 5 unable to fall back asleep! So I got up and I started cleaning and (re) baby proofing the house.

Today I am watching Christi's kids again. Her kids and my kids get along pretty well and it always works out great having them!

So now my house is perfectly ready for them to come over in precisely 35 minutes (7:45 am)

Why do I have this much energy at this early? Perhaps I never actually went into a full REM sleep last night and just tossed and turned for an hour. Perhaps it was the energy drink I slammed with Rachael at 8:00 last night. Perhaps it was my subconscious telling me that the living room needed to get cleaned before the kids came over.

Regardless what the case is I have one last thing to say.

Last time these kids came over I didn't have cable. I'm plugging the four of them in!

The weekend

2008-07-14T23:14:00.001-07:00

I had a fab weekend

My Brandy came over and we WoWed and made wedding invites out of card stock and exceptional magazine clippings.

My Katie O came over and brought me my LUSH num nums and B-Day presents for Ani! I ruff you Katie!

Kara came over on Sunday night and we drank mucho tequila

Tonight (monday) I hung with my sweet lady, Rachael. My Jewish minority of a partner in crime. We watched mighty boosh and The IT crowd. Gotta love anything brittish...I mean Noel Fielding.

Lars went out fri and sat and I played wow .... like I give a damn who is doing the fuck what when I am WoWing.

I went to a graveyard today. I took off all my clothes. I sawr a grave. I did a shit on it.

I was bored

2008-07-14T23:12:00.000-07:00

Playing WoW earlier and I turned my "lap blanket" into a toga.

I have never before attempted the construction of togas. After all I didn't get the chance to go to college

Okay so I have been playing for 1 1/2 years which isn't long I know. I have always played horde but now I am in the process of lvling a alliance character. She is a lvl 11 human / warlock so far and I am loving playing a lock. No possible way you can die when your a warlock because you just eat their souls for health and use a spell to turn your health into mana. Seriously loving this character!

Wanna know what the best part is!?!?

Her name is Buffysummers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

5th of July (Ani's Birthday)

2008-07-05T21:53:00.001-07:00

We went out to the country to see the family and party. My family lives in a beautiful house with lots of land and horses and they rented a bounce house, one of those dunking booths and a cotton candy machine. They also had tons of fireworks and the best BBQ in Texas. All of the little kids were running around and playing with animals, the older kids were catching hay bales on fire with the sparklers....it was so much fun. My cousins were so happy to see me and I missed them all so much too. Ani was the star of the show and made me proud.

My baby is 4

Devo suing McDonalds!?!

2008-06-27T22:39:00.000-07:00

Did you guyz hear about this! It is obviously McDonald's fault here I believe. Go Devo get some cash from their asses...

Devo are cracking that whip!

The 80's rockers are suing McDonald's because the burger chain allegedly used the band's likeness in a Happy Meal toy.

They're angry at the fast food chain's decision to use them as a marketing tool.

Apparently, the golden arches produced a toy called New Wave Nigel, who looks a lot like the Devo boys in the music video for the song Whip It, for some Americal Idol-themed Happy Meals.

The band member who came up with the iconic jump suit look is quoted as saying, "We're in the midst of suing them. They didn't ask us anything."

Will the Devo boys whip it good and walk away with lots of bucks?

McDonald's sure has the $$$$!

Terribly sorry it has been so long!

My monitor suddenly stopped displaying correctly and I found out I had to replace my video card. Bummeroony but, it is under control now.

Speaking of under control, I may be getting a little ... over my life (Knock on fucking wood man, seriously).

After a serious few month rut, I have been seriously improving in many areas.

Keeping my house clean.
Getting monkeys off my back.
Controlling my mood swings.
Controlling my anxiety about leaving the house.

I have also been improving my relationship with Lars by not being hot tempered and having more compassion.

My stimulus check is coming in tomorrow hopefully and we are paying bills, and buying energy efficient items to lower our bills. (Lamps and fans)

I am considering painting the cabinets in my kitchen to lighten things up a bit.. either mint green or pale yellow.

I kinda want to paint the bathroom too...the color of the living room.

My kitchen spider that I have loved for months may be moving outside...

She has gotten HUGE and has a HUGE sack full of babies...not keen on have 251 adorable kitchen spiders!

Man, for some reason I have been watering my yard everyday for the last three weeks at 6pm on the dot! I have no idea why but I will be going about my business and everyday no matter what I am doing at six, I have a zombie like urge to water my lawn.

My Etsy purchases/trades in the last few months

2008-06-13T00:00:00.001-07:00

Yes I agree they are all perfect for me. The Anais Nin charm necklace, the delicious L necklace, my tacky bathroom chalkwares ...IM A NIGHTMARE

Good thing about Etsy is a few of the shop owners trade items. That means one person has their eye on something in another persons shop so they swap that item for something of equal value and pay to ship it.

I also picked up a couple f cute things from Ebay this month aside for the crap I buy trying to save MOOLAH...

My Etsy only has 10 items when last week it had 75, no I did not sell that many things. I had to take all of the earrings off because I was getting no response because the photography was so horrible. So I took my fav pairs and let Rachael pick her favorites and I am taking some to Katie O.

Tomorrow is my big day. The show, the katie o, the TKK!!!!!!!!!!!

Im frigging retardedly tired.

Today is one of my sad grandma days. I still cry over my grandmother's death about once a month I have a good hard cry. This morning I woke up with "You are my sunshine" in my head which she used to always sing. I cried and cried in bed and Lars comforted me.

I love you Joyce and I miss you more everyday.

So I have decided that my memorial tattoo will be a big sunshine with "you are my sunshine my only sunshine, you make me happy when skies are grey" on it and her name in the middle of the sun.

2008-05-22T17:11:00.000-07:00

Okay I know I haven't posted in a while and I mean not even a lame-o youtube video or anything!

I had the busiest craziest week ever last week and I guess I am finally ready to spill it.

Wed- Thurs I cleaned like a mad woman. I had to get the whole house clean and do a ton of laundry before my trip to Vegas and I did get it all done for the most part.

Friday I woke up early and woke up the kids. I packed their bags and fed them and bathed them. Then at 1:00 my mother in law came to pick up both kids (Leni for the whole time I was going to be gone and Ani just overnight) We went to Mr.Chopstick's for lunch and chatted before she took both girls to her house in Fort Worth. After they left I jumped in the car and headed to rachael's. Rachael and I spent the whole day moving her stuff from her old place to her new place. Her mom came and we all worked really hard to put things together. The place is amazing but it had one problem area....the doorway was in the middle or a narrow hallway and we were having trouble fitting the couch into the house. John, Shane and Noah did everything they could to try and get it to fit including removing the railing in the hallway to ease it in but that didn't help. We ended up going to my house to get a bunch of tools which didn't help at all and by the end of the day there was still no couch inside. After we were all tired we started the really party and had a great time. Rachael and I made her room look like you were falling down the rabbit hole. Late that night I returned home to clean up and finish packing.

Saturday I woke up early in the morning and got ready for the airport while Lars slept. I left at 11pm to get to my mom's at one stopping on the way to pick up Ani from her nan's house. I arrived at my mom's at 12pm and we headed up to get my inspection taken care of on my car. When we got there we found out that my tires were ruined and really dangerous and they wouldn't inspect it. We drove up to the tire place and by the time they were done fixing my tires we didn't have time to inspect my car or we would miss our flight. We got in the car and drove to the airport. Ani had a blast on the plane except her ears popping. We arrived in Vegas, rented a car, and got to the hotel. We stayed at the Excalibur and Ani thought she was a princess. The first night Brian stayed in the hotel with Ani while my mom and I gambled. I lost bg time and my mom did good. My mom tried to keep me drinking and it was fun. The next day my mom and Ani and I went to hang out by the pool most of the day. I got sunburnt and went up to the room early to shower while they stayed at the pool. That night I was really missing home and I decided to take an early flight back. Brian scheduled me a flight and I went to bed.

Sunday, The next day they dropped me at the airport at 8am. My flight was at 10:00am so I gambled nickel slots. After my first two nickels I won $25.00 and I cashed out and spent it on magazines and lunch. I got on my flight and slept until my layover in El Paso. When I arrived in Dallas I was exhausted and it was extremely hot. My mother in law picked me up and we sat in traffic for an hour and a half in the heat to get to my car at my moms house. I spent some time with Leni and then got in my car for the hot and scary drive home with bad inspection. When I got home I realized that Lars had a show that night and so I tried to make myself wake up to go. I called rachael who was happy I was back early and we went to the show and her place after.

Monday I still had no kids and I cleaned up and spent the rest of the money from my trip on groceries (which we needed badly).

Right now I am trying to figure out how to ship some packages because my paypal is seriously messed up and these people are getting really mad! I am so scared!

I am working on new necklaces similar to the bird ones I made a couple of weeks ago except these have strange bunnies and butterfly wings which sound lame but are really cool.

I am really stressed out this week!!!!

Leaving for Las Vegas

2008-05-17T08:41:00.000-07:00

Hello everyone!
It is 10:45 am on Saturday and I am about to walk out the door to pick up Ani and head to the airport. I am returning from Las Vegas on Tuesday at 11pm. I am not sure what to expect from or on this trip, and I am a little nervous. You see, i am a homebody. I don't like leaving my home, I don't like driving, and I don't like people I don't know. I can't wait to see how Ani reacts about the plane because she has never been on one and she doesn't know we are going on a plane today... it's a surprise. I am going to miss my husband so much I will probably die. Anyways I am planning to take lots of pictures and post them when I return so wish me luck and I will be back Tuesday night.

Love,

Heather

May 15th TODAY IS NYLON STOCKING DAY!

2008-05-15T15:15:00.000-07:00

The History of Modern Marvels

Nylon Riots.
First introduced by the Du Pont Corporation in 1940, nylon stockings were an instant success. Billed as "stronger than steel" and "run-proof," the public was fascinated by the new synthetic material. Du Pont brilliantly promoted the new stockings from the start. On May 15, 1940, Du Pont declared "N-Day" - for the first time, all across America, nylon stockings would go on sale. Women lined up for blocks and Du Pont sold 5 million pair in that single day.

Nylons.

During World War II Du Pont was forced to divert its nylon production to war-related materials, such as parachutes and aircraft tires. The nylon stocking shortage had begun. In America, the demand for nylon stockings was so high that people began paying $20 on the black market (before the start of the war they had cost a little over a dollar). In Chicago, police ruled out robbery as a motive in a murder case because the perpetrator had left behind six pair of nylon stockings at the crime scene!

In August of 1945, only eight days after Japan's surrender, Du Pont announced that it would immediately return to producing nylon stockings. The next month stockings went on sale at a limited number of stores. Thousands of people showed up for the stockings, which quickly sold out, and so began the first of the so-called "Nylon Riots." Throughout 1945, stores were besieged by mobs of women who had learned of the sales by word of mouth. Du Pont, not fully recovered from its wartime conversion, could not keep up with the demand. People waiting in line were disorderly and police had to disperse crowds. When stores sold out of the precious hosiery, fights broke out. In Pittsburgh, the mayor arranged for a stocking sale in response to a petition by four hundred women. On the day of the sale, 40,000 people lined up to fight for 13,000 pairs. Similar scenes took place all across the country. Finally, by March of 1946, Du Pont was producing 30 million pairs a month, enough for everyone, and the "Nylon Riots" ended.

100th post!

2008-05-02T16:36:00.000-07:00

I'm about to leave to go to the show. I sold another thing on Etsy today which is cool but not as cool as it will be when i list all of these earrings. Have a safe weekend and I will post again soon.

Now

2008-05-02T11:18:00.000-07:00

I have almost 200 pairs of priceless vintage earrings to put on Etsy in the next few weeks, I'm so excited!

Tonight is MIA with Morgan, Lizz and Sarah D. That is going to be bumpin'

WOO HOO

Life is GOOD

Woo Hoo!

2008-04-30T19:51:00.000-07:00

Sold two more things on ETSY today, totaling at $45.00!

I also am waiting to receive a butt load of stuff that I am planning to resale.

I'M RICH BIOTCH!

There's proof!

2008-04-30T06:47:00.000-07:00

So I have been slowly turning my Etsy into an online vintage store, as I said in my last post, and I listed an item last night. The item I listed last night had shitty pictures and I had it marked WAY UP and I woke up this morning and it was sold and I had three people contact me about it! Hopefully this means that all of the crap I have been buying to resale is actually going to sale!

What's going on?

2008-04-29T13:08:00.000-07:00

Well I am currently in the process of adding a new dimension to my craft company. As you know I have been playing around with several different mediums, trying to find that niche I am comfortable with. I am going to start selling not only my crafts, but other cool vintage finds that I come across. I am going to be selling these items strictly ETSY and my crafts will be mostly for Time Bandits, because they obviously already have a magnificent collection of vintage items. I added some stuff to my ETSY today and will continue to post several items a day for the next several weeks. They will be priced very reasonably, and shipped to your door.

My veggies are starting to look really great! Jonah, Rachael and I are planning to transplant them and a couple of other pre-grown veggie plants in raised beds in the back yard. This means starting a new compost mix and lots of work. The way the economy is looking right now, I have no other choice unless I want to starve! Please God let us elect a good presidential candidate that will fix this damn depression!

Friday is the MIA concert at the Palladium in Dallas. I am looking forward to show and the friends who I am going with!

I also wanted to add that I am going on a trip to Vegas on May 17th with my mom and Ani. Ani has never been in a plane before and she asks about it all the time so we are keeping it a surprise until the day comes. Leni and Lars are staying at home and my mother in law is going to watch Leni during the days that Lars will be at work.

I have been doing a lot of redecorating of my home lately. I am trying to figure out the most efficient way to save space in my tiny home. Leni recently decided she was done with her crib and so when we receive the economic stimulus checks we are going to buy the girls bunk beds and new curtains.

Tomorrow Lars and I are doing another photo shoot with Leanne and it should be a blast. The lovely Lisa at Time Bandits is supplying the vintage threads and we are so thankful to have sweet friends like her. If you haven't been to Time Bandits recently I highly recommend you get your butts in there and support your local shops!

I also wanted to say THANK YOU to everyone who wished me a happy birthday last week whether it was a myspace comment, email, phone call, or whatever I really appreciate you thinking of me!

I still need to make shirts for Kyle. I have my screen all ready and all of the supplies I just need to get the shirts and finish them off. I plan to have them done by the time Kyle returns to Denton for his shows. Keep an eye out for some amazing Night Game Cult shirts at his shows in town!

HOLY SHIT

My veggie garden

2008-04-25T11:23:00.000-07:00

Two weeks ago, Rachael and I planted a bunch of seeds for veggies. We planted them in cups until they sprouted and we are going to transplant them soon. I have been religiously taking care of them. I water them and take pictures of them and talk to them and they are getting huge!

This past week

2008-04-25T11:02:00.000-07:00

I have been really sick all week. I have this cold/flu thing that involves a ton of coughing, sore throat, bad phlegm, and an Earache. I took Day Quil and it helped clear me up but it made me feel tweeked out so I didn't take it after the first day.

It sucks when you are sick but you still have to work and function like a normal person because you have people who are Dependant on you.

Tuesday-Thursday I watched another little girl along side my little ones all day. She was precious and I enjoyed having her so much.

Wednesday night at midnight I made Rachael go to Fry street with me to get my free drinks because I knew she was going to be busy on my actual birthday. We had a blast! I love Rachael so much, when we first started hanging out we didn't know each other very well. But now Rachael and I are really close and I can honestly say that I would do anything for her. Rachael has such a good heart.

Thursday night I went to Lou's and had a few drinks with Morgan. She was so sweet to me for my birthday and we had a blast laughing at this 40 year old broad who was so drunk that she was freak dancing all over the club.

After my drink with Morgan I met up with Katie O and we went out. First we went to Hailey's where we had a couple of free drinks and scoped the place out. We were there pretty early and there was no one there so we decided to see what was up at RGRS. We had a drink and watched some of the bands. Then JoshAa bought me a shot of whiskey and we talked about how much we missed each other. JoshAa just got a really amazing new job so I listened to him talk about it and was so happy for him!

After that Katie O and I went to WHATABURGER! We feasted on yum yums and headed back home. Katie O spent the night and she even let me sleep in while she played with Ani. I woke up and she took off to go home, and I walked into my kitchen and she had cleaned my whole kitchen for me. I was so touched that she did that, that I almost wanted to cry. I LOVE YOU KATIE O!

Now I need to have a drink with my sweet Lisa and my birthday will be complete! Lisa has been really busy with making music, which I am so stoked to hear!

Sunday I am having Birthday dinner with my family.

Today is my Birthday

2008-04-24T14:00:00.001-07:00

Buy my shit off of ETSY and we will call it a deal.

What's going on..

2008-04-23T07:31:00.000-07:00

Well, tomorrow is my birthday and I will be 21. I feel 31, with two kids and a mortgage. Yesterday through tomorrow I am watching a little girl a little older than Leni from 8-5:30. Her name is rabbit and she is just about the smartest, sweetest and most intelligent little girl I have ever met. I was telling someone yesterday about how well she fit in with our family culture yesterday and that I feel like I should pay Rabbit's mom for letting me watch her! Right now she is watching Curious George on the couch in a big fluffy pallet I made her, because my girls are sick and still sleeping. She is so wonderful, I bet her parents are wonderful parents to her and that is why she is so sweet.

My Veggie garden is turning out to be a success! I am going to take pictures of them today when the sun comes out, so I can get a good shot. I think I am going to have to transplant my veggies a lot sooner than I had originally thought. I also need to take some time out today during the kids nap to plant some bulbs, so we can get some flowers growing in this beast.

MAN OH MAN, I have been suffering from a really bad cold all week. The kids and Rabbit have it as well and we don't know where it came from. All I know is sore-throat, EARACHE, coughing and body pain. Last night I gave the kids a hot bath full of essential oils and bubbles. After breathing in the soothing oils, I got them dressed in warm PJ's, gave them vitamins, a big dose of vitamin C, and put vapor rub on them. I also sprayed the whole house and air with OUST because it kills 99% germs in the air and surface. After that I sprayed their whole room, all of their toys and all of the door knobs. Then I sprinkled peppermint oil in the corners of all the rooms.

Right now I am waiting for the kids to wake up on their own accord so I don't interrupt the sleep they need to recover from this dumb cold.

I sold two necklaces at Time Bandits this week, and I took two custom orders for my Day Of The Dead shoes. I sure am glad because I need the money.

I put an add on Craig's list this week, basically saying that I am a licensed hairdresser that works out of her house, around your schedule, and that I was willing to barter specific items for haircuts and colors. I had some weirdos think I was a hooker and that I was using "Hairdresser" as some code word. The chick emailed me and said that "She needs me to work around her schedule" and that "Her man and her need me to call her ASAP" I didn't know whether to shit my pants or lock my door.

Maybe I will post another album later!

Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys - "King Of Western Swing 1935-1945"

2008-04-22T09:33:00.000-07:00

This is essential for anyone who is a fan of Western Swing. This album, I believe, is Bob Will's best. Because it is a collection from 1935 - 1945 it has a great amount of swing influence, which didn't carry on as heavily with Bob Will's as time progressed. The lyrics are all but brilliant and hilarious, and they embrace the time period in which they were written. This CD is very "Texas Oriented" obviously because Bob Will's was a Texas native, and it makes you proud to be in this state!"Fan It" is my personal favorite, enjoy!

2. Osage Stomp

Heart - "Bebe Le Strange"

2008-04-22T09:15:00.000-07:00

I haven't posted a podcast in a while and there is a reason for that. I am trying to compile a good list as of right now so I figured I would post a few albums that I think are worth a listen to. Starting with:

Heart - "Bebe Le Strange" 1980

1. Bebe Le Strange

2. Down On Me

3. Silver Wheels

4. Break

5. Rockin' Heaven Down

6. Even It Up

7. Strange Night

8. Raised On You

9. Pilot

10. Sweet Darlin'

11. Break (Live)

I personally believe that this is Heart's best CD. Heart is a great band that had several hit or miss songs. This album's first six songs are obviously the best and I the last half of the album is a little boring. But the first six tracks are great rock and roll pop songs with some punky riffs and "girl-band" lyrics. I hope you enjoy!

Currently

2008-04-17T16:03:00.000-07:00

So Lars and I are currently re watching "My So Called Life" and I got to say, I forgot how good it was! Next I am making Lars watch "Daria" because it rules and I love it.

I spent my whole day cleaning house as usual except I actually got a lot done today! I blame it all on the energy drink that I made Lars this morning. I made it for him and he left without it and I wasn't going to let it go to waste! I highly recommend the "White Lightening" natural energy drinks, they are cheaper than the ones at the C-store and they aren't full of a bunch of shitty stuff that is bad for you.

Right now I am waiting for Katie O to get here. She is coming over to do hair, crafts and spend the night. I LOVE MY KATIE O!

Dream Interpretation

2008-04-16T08:41:00.000-07:00

Okay guys this is serious.

I have been having a series of dreams for the past six months. I have had a total of about 10 of these dreams one at a time over the last six months and they each pick up where the dream left off but all with the same goal.

These dreams are so dark and scary that when I wake up I am terrified for several hours.

In all of these dreams I have killed one or several persons, all of the "persons" are unknown to me. Also, I don't actually ever see myself killing them, it is just implied.

My goal in these dreams is to take these bodies which I have buried underground and move them to a "safer place" where they wont be found.

I go into this backyard and it is obvious that the yard has been dug up and there are large plywood boards laying over the dug up dirt like I had placed them there to hide the graves.

It is a series of events in which I take the bodies somewhere and I keep getting interrupted by persons whom I think are going to see the bodies.

My dream last night was really strange. It was different because for some reason I was still in high school and I woke up early that morning and put the bodies in my car and then was on my way to get rid of them when all of the sudden this urgency hit me that I needed to get to school! So I stop in mid route and head to my old high school, park my car, and run to class. The whole time I am in class I am freaking out that someone is going to see them in my car! I get out of class and get to my car and start driving and then I woke up.

Am I crazy!?

I would never hurt a soul! That is why these dreams scare me so much, because it is something I would never do!

Last week I baked something from scratch every single evening.

Cranberry Walnut Chocolate Chip Cookies
Chocolate Chip Brownies
Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies
Fudge Brownie Cookies

I made two dozen of each of these. I had a lot of people to eat them. I still ate a bunch. I lost 4 lbs.

Week before I was eating healthy small portions or next to nothing and I felt way fatter!

My kids are spoiled..and my husband.
