Impromptu Hiatus
So sorry, I had an impromptu hiatus from all things that are technology! I know scary right. I haven't gone that long without using a computer or phone. Well I lie, I had my phone. Just went up north for a little relaxation. Anywho, I quickly updated the music, to make up for the missing blink songs. Off to do a few things, be back in a jiff.

This Womans Work
Oh my fucking god. Did anyone see So You Think You Can Dance tonight?! The piece by Tyse Diorio (will check spelling later), preformed by Ade and Melissa, about breast cancer, WOW. I have never been so emotionally moved by dance before and that was beyond incredible. I knew from the first note of the music (being a huge She's having a baby fan) that I was in for it, and having a breast cancer scare myself. Holy crap. I cried like a baby. I don't know when the last time a minute and a half moved me so much. Wow. Amazing. Utterly amazing. If you didn't watch it or haven't or don't even watch the show at all, I reccommend atleast checking out that clip. It was incredible, and moving. And I don't know a soul who wouldn't feel something after seeing that.
Off to go run now. Be back shortly.

OPPS!
It Might Kill Me
Hello, tell me you know, yeah, you've figured me out
Something gave it away
And it would be such a beautiful moment to see the look on your face
To know that I know that you know now
And baby that's a case of my wishful thinking
You know nothing
'Cause you and I, why we go carrying on for hours on end
We get along much better than you and your boyfriend
Well, all I really want to do is love you
A kind much closer than friends use
But I still can't say it after all we've been through
And all I really want from you is to feel me
As the feeling inside keeps building
And I will find a way to you if it kills me,
if it kills me.
Well, how long can I go on like this, wishing to kiss you
Before I rightly explode
And this double life I lead isn't healthy for me in fact it makes me nervous
If I get caught I could be risking it all
Well, baby there's a lot that I miss in case I'm wrong
All I really want to do is love you
A kind much closer than friends use
But I still cant say it after all we've been through
And all I really want from you is to feel me
As the feeling inside keeps building
And I will find a way to you if it kills me,
if it kills me
If I should be so bold, I'd ask you to hold my heart in your hand
Tell you from the start how I've longed to be your man
But I never said a word I guess I'm gonna miss my chance again
Well, all I really want to do is love you
A kind much closer than friends use
But I still can't say it after all we've been through
And all I really want from you is to feel me
As the feeling inside keeps building
And I will find a way to you if it kills me,
if it kills me
I think it might kill me
And all I really want from you is to feel me
It's a feeling inside that keeps building
And I will find a way to you if it kills me,
if it kills me
It might kill me.
Thank u Mr. Mraz.
Can't get this song out of my head since SYTYCD.

Random thought
When walking around in the pitch black , before your eyes adjust, do you ever find yourself closing your eyes and maneuvering around better?!

Is blood really thicker than water?
So awhile ago I blogged about my family. I don't believe I mentioned exactly why I'm so passionate about my family. My real father disowned me. That's basically the jist of it. There was no good reason, in fact I did nothing wrong. He cheated on my mother for the entire 15 year marriage they had, and my mom finally called it quits. I always hated him, he treated me like shit, but I chalked it up to kids hate their dads. He's a very controlling man, and once word came out that he cheated on my mom, any power he had over me went flying out the window. For the first time I could stand up to him, because I knew what a piece of shit he was. Well to make a long story short, he basically told his entire side of the family that if anyone had any contact with me or my mother he wouldn't allow them to see my lil brother or sister. It worked. Now I don't 100% blame him, I blame that family just as much. Because honestly, who would really just stop talking to an innocent 15 year old. Cut to 10 years later, I haven't had any contact with any of the adults. Nor has a single one tried, including my grandparents. You are probably saying to yourself, damn this girl must have really done something to have all those people stop talking to her. I am being honest that I did nothing. My step father, whom I refer to as my dad, thought the same thing when he first started dating my mother. He thought we were just angry bitches, mad about him cheating. After getting to see first hand how he treated me, or lack there of, he quickly realized it wasn't just us being angry bitches. He now can't even mention my biological father without ending up upset and swearing. I find it cute. I'm sick and twisted what can I say. I always wanted to be a daddy's girl and now I am. So in the past year or so, I've had every single cousin find me on facebook or myspace. Its weird to me, because I was the oldest in that family, by many years, so thinking that they would remember me just blows my mind. I recently, a few days ago and today, had the last two find me on facebook. They are brother and sister, and the last time I saw them they were a baby and about 4 years old. There is no way on earth they remember me. The youngest posted on my wall saying that of course she remembers me her dad talks about me all the time. Now I have no problem with the kids talking about me, they were innocent in all of this, its hard to defy your parents, this I know, but god it makes me so mad hearing that the adults are talking about me. It infuriates me. I don't want them talking bad about me because they don't know what I had to go through. And I don't want them talking good about me because they treated me like I didn't exist, they don't get the privilege to say nice things about me. If they are going to act like I don't exist for 10 years then god dammit don't speak about me to anyone. I'm entitled to hating the adults. They should know better. They should know not to treat a 15 year old like she is an awful human being. I never want anything to do with them ever again. I have a family and they will never be a part of it. But as for my cousins, its so hard to let them be a part of my life, since they are mostly still in high school and younger, and can't visit without parental knowledge. But they don't deserve me to shut them out either. The older of the two ,was im'ing me today about his father. (His father is also a piece of shit, beyond me just hating him). The poor kid is going through something similar that I did. His dad emotionally abused him, is what he told me, and he doesn't live with him anymore. It just broke my heart. Here I am getting a little creeped out that this cousin whom I haven't seen or spoken to in 10 years is obsessively talking to me, and then find out he's just reaching out to someone to talk to them. Someone that can understand what its like to be apart of that family. And having a kid who is going into high school this year, tell me that when he has kids he doesn't want to be anything like his dad, and that we have to work hard to make sure our children aren't put into the same cycle.... he wise beyond his years. It makes me wonder that as I grow, am I going to become in touch with that side of the family again? I never will see the adults, but the cousins. I never dreamed that I would have 2 sides of my own family, not for the past 10 years. But its like a glimmer of hope. Family means so much to me. And to have joint custody of my cousins would be amazing. So is blood really thicker than water? Will I always have a connection with that side of my blood, even though I've tried so hard to not think of them? I guess time will tell.
Hopeful.
Hopeful.

This weekend is my towns annual "Art in the Park", a little art fair. Well actually its not so little. I've never been before so I was a virgin to the whole scene. I was amazed at how HUGE it was. Anywho we walked around for like 4 hours marveling at all the amazing stuff, and giggling at some of the cheesy not so amazing stuff that was there. But I did stumble upon an amazing little booth. We had walked by it a few times, and decided to make a pass down its row again to listen to the reggae band again. But then we finally decided to take a look, and found the most amazing necklaces. (I'm super in to necklaces at the moment) They are just gorgeous and if I was rich I would have bought every single one. In fact, I'm having the opposite of buyer's remorse, I'm having, didn't buy enough remorse. We are planning to go again and I will stop by and pick up another peice tomorrow! Anywho the maker's name is Susan Scherer and she has her stuff up on the internet as well, seriously you must go take a look. She calls the necklaces Antique watchworks jewelry. She has lockets and these peices that look like broken down insides of old watches, but makes them absolutely beautiful. I picked out a few of my favorite and posted them below. But check them out on her website birdzNbeez or go to http://www.birdznbeez.etsy.com/


Doggy Play Date
Meet: Chief. My baby, he's been featured before, but I heart him so here he is again
2 1/2 year old Chocolate Lab.

Meet: Tucker. My step dog
1 year old English Bulldog

It was a glorious sunny day so my lil bro and sis and I decided our dogs should get together and play. So we picked up Tucker for a play date and took him to the park with us. Then we ventured down to Petco, it is where the pets go, to get Chiefy a new "baby" (aka stuffed animal).
Here some pics from our doggy play date.
The car ride proved to be a little too exciting for Tucker, who insisted on attacking me with kisses while I was driving.

We even accomplished getting my bro exercise. Tucker is just not as fast, he's bringing up the rear.
Begging for cookies. Chiefy was a good boy and listened before he got his treat.

Hot dogs!

There is something about the crack between the 2 front seats, dogs just LOVE it. Fighting over better position.

After Petco, the boys got baths. Tucker was stinky, and by the frown on his face, he was not enjoying bath time.

Best face of the day. He was a little put off to not be allowed in the front, so rested his face on the seat.

Music Music Music

In honor of one of my favorite cult classic movies, which I happen to be watching right now... Empire Records. I don't care what anyone says this movie is amazing. I love that Liv Tyler and Renee Zellweger are in it. Ahhhh it makes me laugh and I love LOVE it!
I'm not going to break it down by artist this time because they are pretty old songs and artists. Next week back to the old grind. I also wasn't ready to completely let go of MJ, so he's got a guest spot.
Say no more, mon amour.

He's Just Not That Into You

Anywho, watched this movie with my little sister. I heard mixed reviews, but we were in a chick flick mood, so we rented it anyway. First off, OMG sooooo embarassing. I kept wanting to fast forward through all of Ginnifer Goodwin's parts. AHHHHHH! But all in all we really liked this movie. I've decided its definantly based on my friends. Like we are all like that. And god its so true all the stuff we say to each other and why we can't just go... ehhh he's just not that into you. I'd consider it, but I know I'd get bitch slapped by one of my friends. Hahahaha! Favorite part of the movie was when (SPOILER ALERT) Ben Affleck proposed to Jennifer Aniston. OMG. SOOOOO AMAZING! I want that.
Longingly.

Tonight I watched local fireworks from my roof. Yes literally climbed up on one tier of our roof, got a ladder and went to the top tier. It was pretty sweet. Tomorrow shall be spent boating and drinking and havin fun. I made some awesome White Wine Peach Sangria for the festivities and it is AMAZING!!!!! I wish everyone a fun and fantastic Fourth of July! Eat, drink, and be merry!
Happy Independence.
