Blogging

I have to say I do like the blogging better than the facebook.  Just saying. 

I love you, I love you, I love YOUUUUUU!!!

This is my brand new spanking cell phone...   I have never loved a phone as much as I love this one.  Every time I have gone to look at phones I didn't like any so I chose the best out of the bunch.  I just got my last phone about a year ago so it wasn't really time to get a new one.  When Alltel got bought out by Verizon I got switched and had the opportunity (because someone told my mom that our bill would be cheaper) to get a new phone sooner.  For months I have been looking religiously on the verizon site and went once to the store in Chubbuck to actually handle them and see what I liked.  Again it was the same old I didn't really like any of them nothing spoke to me.  One day after much searching (been checking the site everyday seriously I am that OCD about purchasing)  They added a brand new phone.  I fell in love with it at first site.  No Really 1st Site.  I love the size the design.  Its curvy and long.  The screen is bright and vibrant.  I LOVE YOU!!!  So after much deliberation (one week) I bought it over the internet.  My dad should thank me cause he got his new phone for free.  The stars alligned perfectly it was perfect.  The day I bought it, the price, the special.  I have had it for probably a month and I couldn't be happier.  I have had one little snaffu.  I stupidly uploaded an app and it made my wi fi not work so I had to reset to factory settings.  All is good I am very careful.  I can read books on my phone with the Kindle App. they have a lot of the classics for free.  I downloaded My favorite book which I have read like 20 billion times, and Little Women, and a book with all the fairytales.  I have only seen the movies the stories are of course much different.  OOOOHHHH I cant help it one more time.   I LOVE YOU SAMSUNG FASCINATE!!!!

Thank you for reading my totally silly post. 

 I am Definitly one of those people who need the fancy and smancy.

I cling to my imperfection, as the very essence of my being. ~Anatole France (Jacques Anatole François Thibault), The Garden of Epicurus, 1894, Quote Garden.com

To those who are perfect and infallible. Who have never done anything wrong. Are always right. Who surround themselves with others who think, act and are JUST LIKE THEM.

Those who boast there perfection and announce it in various verbal and non verbal forms.

I CELEBRATE THE TRULY IMPERFECT.

The ones who make mistakes, learn from it, and move on. The ones who live their lives the way they want even though it may be hard. To those who while in difficult situations recognize that there are two sides or more to a story and try to be understanding. To those who respect others feelings and try to think of others. Instead of believing that the only ones in this life that matter are them and what they want, and how they want it. To people who believe in what they believe and understand that others do not and respect that. To anyone who has been in an unfortunate situation and tried to do the right thing and yet in the end failing. You tried and really that's all that matters. To those who feel that being a social butterfly is not the most important thing. To those who celebrate who they are.

Congratulations! You're not perfect! It's ridiculous to want to be perfect anyway. But then, everybody's ridiculous sometimes, except perfect people. You know what perfect is? Perfect is not eating or drinking or talking or moving a muscle or making even the teensiest mistake. Perfect is never doing anything wrong - which means never doing anything at all. Perfect is boring! So you're not perfect! Wonderful! Have fun! Eat things that give you bad breath! Trip over your own shoelaces! Laugh! Let somebody else laugh at you! Perfect people never do any of those things. All they do is sit around and sip weak tea and think about how perfect they are. But they're really not one-hundred-percent perfect anyway. You should see them when they get the hiccups! Phooey! Who needs 'em? You can drink pickle juice and imitate gorillas and do silly dances and sing stupid songs and wear funny hats and be as imperfect as you please and still be a good person. Good people are hard to find nowadays. And they're a lot more fun than perfect people any day of the week. -Stephen Manes, Be a Perfect Person in Just Three Days!

I SP am not perfect and I don't ever want to be.
I do on very angry moments swear.
I have and probably will lie.
I did have one alcoholic drink (It was not on purpose. The young waiter needs a hearing aid)
I have lost my temper.
I have been mean to people on purpose. ( They were unable to take a hint)
I gossip.
I hang up on my parents.
I have stopped talking to people.
I have let friends go because I am just lazy.
Oh I am Lazy
I watch too much TV.
I drink way to much diet coke (Cherry)
I don't like church.
I am anti social.
I don't like to dress up.
My mother loves me. She has no choice.
So does my father. He has to cause I am more perfect than him.
I think I am funny even though really I'm just annoying.
I am getting tired.

THE END


I know this may not be organized and structured but I needed to vent and there it is.

SINGLE AND LOVING IT!

I recently read an article online that gave “8 Reasons to Enjoy Your Single Status”  ( http://lifestyle.msn.com/relationships/article.aspx?cp-documentid=23606164>1=32023 ). As most of you know I have been single my whole life. I have never had boyfriends, no fiancées, and definilty no husband and I like it that way. I remember being younger and all the girls around me were obsessed with having boyfriends and going on dates. I on the other hand dabbled a bit in the dating scene in high school and in my early 20’s. You know what I discovered my absolute hatred for it. Now don’t get me wrong its nice to be wined and dined. I just have never understood why so many were unable to enjoy the company of the best person in their world.   Themselves.

For most of my adult life I have gotten nothing but grief from people who for some reason feel it is wrong to be single and to have no desire to become anything different. They want to set me up on dates and put me on some kind of dating web site. Why is it such a big deal. Really I don’t understand the need to set people up. I understand that everyone thinks I need to get out there and meet someone. I am not you and I don’t want that life at least not like that. I am not going to pretend that there haven’t been moments where I thought it would be nice to have a male companion and maybe even be married w/kiddies.  To be whats that word ..  um.. um .. oh yeah normal.

In this article it gives 8 reasons to enjoy being single some of which are in my opinion completely stupid reasons others are excellent. This article’s reasons were being able to eat what you want when you want. Personally I don’t care when and where just give me food. Thankfully I come from a very indecisive family that I can usually get them to go where I want anyway.

Another was being able to run errand with out how did they put it "baggage".  Yes that is nice a nice idea. This is the one time I don’t like being solo. I tend to drag my mom with me everywhere I go. Poor mom right. Well she is a great deterrent from spending money. I like window shopping, looking around, and seeing what is out there.  Although for the record for us chubby, short gals there is nothing, absolutely nothing that looks good and fits just right. Which is probably why I don’t buy much.

Next apparently being single lets you get to know yourself. I don’t understand how being single gives you the opportunity to know ones self. I have always known me and even if I were the social butterfly and couldn’t be single I think I would still know me.

Be a good aunt?  I don’t completely understand how being single makes a person a good or bad aunt. Yes I personally think I rock in the aunt department. If I were attached I would still be a good aunt. I am completely unable to fathom how a person’s status would change how good an aunt/uncle is. I have to admit I rolled my eyes on this one.
Now this I have to admit I completely agree with 110%. If I want to learn, go to school, take up a hobby, or learn a language then I can do it. If I start something and It doesn’t work out I have no one to explain myself to but me. For example I took a phlebotomy course at ISU that was quite a lot of money. I discovered that my first assessment of not having anything to do with the body in anyway shape or form was accurate. I can not cause people pain, deal with icky sicky strangers, or icky medical situation. I stopped going right before the class was done. Yes that is not good and I should have stuck it out. Who cares I didn’t like it I stopped.  The end.  No significant other to justify me wasting that money and time.  I was very understanding and excepted my own reasons.

This next one is iffy. This writer states that single people tend to get out of the house more. Really cause I tend to do the opposite. I can watch TV in my pj’s at 2pm  in the afternoon. Heck why bother getting dressed anyway.  If I take a shower or eat at 2 pm then I can.  If I don’t want to take that plate to the sink cause I am just plain to lazy than let it be. If I am unable to sleep and decide to take a shower at 2 in the morning I can. I notice when I am watching my nieces and nephew I want to go out and play or whatever. When I am with others I want to be active and do stuff. So I guess in this respect I am the opposite of the writer.

This next one is also a 110% agree whole heartedly. I have discovered I love to travel. I will find any excuse to get in a rented car and go, go, go. My current excuses are certain family members who happen to live down south in sunny Arizona. I love traveling down there to see my brother and his family. They are the best reasons ever. I can wake up one morning and decide that the week before memorial day weekend I will rent a very expensive convertible ( which are hard to get ) and drive all day and the next to Arizona and play with the kiddies. I only have to worry about my own job, my own money, and time. One Thursday I decided I was going to SLC to see the Christmas light cause I have never been down there during the holidays. So I took the next day off went online rented a cheap car and dragged my poor mom for some SLC shopping and sightseeing. Besides who can turn up a chance to go to Olive Gardens. Not me and definitely not my mother. Hook line and sinker love ya mom. Before I would try to find people to go with me but seriously they are such a drag. I have to make my plans around what they want to do just like when I went to Spokane. Love my brothers but what a couple of party poopers.

This last reason I wouldn’t know anything about. The writer states its better to be lonely when your single than lonely in a relationship. I have never experienced this but I can understand the reasoning behind it.

Let me just say I live in Pocatello ID.  Your either a going to church mormon or a party at the bar type.  Me I am neither.  I am a shy, anti-social, introverted, non confonformist, non drinking, anti social butterfly who wants to be left alone mormon women. (women that sounds weird but 30 year olds can call themselves that, right?)  I don't do church (social butterfly religion) or bars (remember non drinking)  Where in this town is a girl like that suppose to find a fella anyway. 

If another person tries to set me up with a guy and follows with a oh you guys would be perfect for each other.  Then proceeds to list the reasons. I am going to lose it. (which I have actually done once, nicely). Because of moments like this I can honestly say and trust me when I say no one and I mean NO ONE knows me well enough to know which guy is perfect for me.

So all in all what I am trying to say is back off, leave me alone there is nothing wrong with not conforming to the standards of society. I am 30 years old and SINGLE YEAH!!!!
When I am ready it will happen. If a special gentleman guy comes around out of the blue then that’s that.    Good bye single life.

Until then

HELLO SINGLE AND LOVING IT.

If you haven't guessed this has been an issue of late.
