Just thought I'd mention it..... I notice when your not around.

So what to mention, meeting Ron was very nice. We had fun, I drank a beer !! couldn't believe that.
He is definately tall, and our intelligent conversation was a delight, along with the company of his charm and smile.

HEY! P.S. - If you haven't yet checked out Norah Jones please, please, let me help you -here is a link to her newest album you can play "Come Away With Me." You will be prompted to enter brief information for mp3.com, basically demographics, without the income and education questions. Have a listen ~
Hello From Saturday in Arizona ~

So, So, sorry for the delay, I have injured my left hand! Good thing im right handed eh?? (wink wink)
Anyway, yeah so I have had to take it easy lately.... I have a follow up visit with the doctor on Tuesday.
The x-ray shows a previous break to my thumb! I was shocked. I have no recollection of this.
The pain I am having, well, Doc, and I thought It was from a repetative motion, from typing, and using the spacebar.
I dont use the left hand to hit the space bar.....

This is so intersting to find and I can not figure what it might be caused from.. however I do tighten up my thumb and it is held upward while I type and this could have fatigued it ???? It hurts! Fatigue has never hurt. Im confused... though we all knew this before. anyway again, sorry, this is why I haven't posted in a couple of days.

Stacey and the ladies in Missouri, I found a really great link to an audio tape made in the 60's that you HAVE to hear to believe. So for one week - you will have your fame as I mention you in the description for the link. This should be available by clicking here FIVE FUN FACTS.
I just thought of you all stuck in that office, freezing your tushies off in that office full of lawyers. No pun intended.
Dont know why..... Just happened. So I had to mention it.

The gang in the P.ackage I.nvestigation department was out 'frolicking'--which has no letter 'k' in it if plural, at the Wildcat House, dancing, drinking, eating, etc.. This guy approached my old supervisor. Her name is Leanne.
So- the scene, ( a guy who will reamain nameless.. umm what we homosexuals would refer to as a nelly queen... approaches this guy there named Ron. Ron is told within 30 minutes that he is loved by the nameless nelly queen...
Ron then rolls his eyes... yatta yatta and I would imagine a short time passes and Ron proceeds away from the nelly boy. ) Ron approaches a table and sits down to chat with her, come to find out a good friend of his also works at the same location. They chat, Ron ask's Leanne, "do you have any cute friends?? I dont ever want to be with a guy like that" (the nelly queen) - some of you readers will know exactly who and what im refering to, others will be lost but should enjoy the read...
I was asleep it was approximately 10pm. The phone rings, it's Leanne - "hey, and so,on...you should come out here, im at the Wildcat House and there is this guy his name is Ron...he's awesome, you gotta at least meet him.." He thinks the same thing you do about (nelly queen) whats his name.
So- the reason for all of this, I have a date! WOW. I cheated and showed up at his work today, I have no idea what to expect, im nervous. I haven't done this in a long time.... each time I try, the fresh wound I created with my separation from Rich after 10 years kicks in. It's only been a year. We met in the summer of 1991 I was just turning 19. I moved away on April 10th 2001. Spiritually, I can't possibly be ready. So here goes. Im giving it a shot. Im meeting him at his work tonight and were all going out as a group. Should be much needed fun. I just felt like sharing. It's healthy to get this garbage out, even if no one is listening, but rather reading. Very theraputic for me.
Fun and goodtimes to all... Be safe. Talk with you later ~me

“Until one is committed, there is hesitancy, the chance to draw back. Concerning all acts of initiative (and creation) there is one elementary truth that ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans: that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then Providence moves too.

All sorts of things occur to help one that would never otherwise have occurred. A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in one's favor all manner of unforeseen incidents and meetings and material assistance, which no man could have dreamed would have come his way. Whatever you can do, or dream you can do, begin it. Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it. Begin it now.” ~~~ Goethe

Got my ears into a tune by Norah Jones, it's Dont Know Why. Check it out if you get the chance, here is her website, Norah Jones Music, really good stuff. Mellow, hip, soothing, calming groovy beats that different parts of your body begin to move too. Deep bass, blues like, piano jazz.
Here is a comment from AskMen.com

why we like her?

A fresh face in jazz and soul music circles, Norah is cool and low-key despite being an extremely talented and attractive rising young star.

why is she famous?

The February 2002 release of Come Away With Me was received with much anticipation despite coming out of relative obscurity, at least for the pop music fan. Add to Norah's musical gifts the fact that she is smoking and what we've got here is one fine woman.

overall rating
81

It is rare to see someone as down-to-earth and in touch with reality as Norah Jones storming onto the music scene. She represents the arrival of a new kind of singer: multi-talented, soulful, dedicated, and sincere when she says "I'm doing it for the music." Although she is stylistically much closer to Diana Krall than Alicia Keys, Jones has the young, fresh appeal and innate skills that Keys possesses, capable of awing audiences with her voice and piano playing.

Born in New York City and raised in Dallas, Texas, Norah Jones later returned to New York to start her career. This change in culture, subtle as it may be, can be seen in her music. She combines country, blues, folk, and jazz to create yet another niche in this day and age when crossover artists come by the barrelful. Still, she stands out without even trying.

quote

"There's been so much overproduced junk out there for so long that when something like this comes out that's very pure, very direct and with a voice that will break your heart, people react to it."
-Bruce Lundvall, Blue Note president, on Norah's album Come Away With Me.

bio

Born March 30, 1979, in New York City, but raised in a suburb of Dallas, Texas after relocating south with her mother Sue, Norah Jones showed a strong aptitude for music since childhood. She enrolled in Booker T. Washington High School for the Performing and Visual Arts to hone her musical talents but after exposure to several instruments, she realized she wanted to play the piano. Already career-minded, she knew that a solid foundation of jazz piano could pave the way for better things...

Trivia: Which famous international musician is Norah Jones' father?

(recently reconciling with her father, Ravi Shankar, world-renowned sitar player)

********************** Enjoy :) ~ttyl, me
I have been having trouble getting all the images to post on Five Fun Facts. But here it is, I will work on this until I get it right....
FIVE FUN FACTS... not quite finished but here it is :)

December 08, 2002

Morning from Sunday ! My friend Radthika is here from West Virginia!! Were going to Mt.Lemmon today then over to the Saguaro National Monument. I have so much work to do for the posting of Five Fun Facts..... im going to be working late tonight on it. I really really think I can get It up by the morning.....( the facts that is ) - kinda pervy, sorry.
Im all ready and waiting for her call, she went to go pick up her rental car. What a surprise!

Liz helped me $$$ save $$$ 40 bucks, by giving me some slack on the rent after she had someone come out and trim the palm tree, So, woo hoo, Im buying a few rolls of film and some black and whites, I didnt ask for a new digital cam this year, as I dropped Minolta digital cam at a work party one night this past summer.

gotta go, she called :)
~bye ya ---me

December 06, 2002

Well, It seems as if im feeling the affects of this new schedule, 730-400 whew, yesterday, 12/05 it took me 15 minutes to get out of bed, this morning it took me 30 minutes to get out of bed. I thought it would get easier to get up. I have been trying different sleep times to see which one is working best for me, so far 7 hours seems to be enough sleep. 8 was too much and 6, well, much too little. So, sorry I have not posted each day, I'm adjusting....

I miss my friends, Stacey, and Jeffrey (who is finally back online), Richie, Lester, Kelly and Krista, and Josh1 and Josh2. Mattie, Franklin, Nate, and the list goes on.... just thought I'd share...
wowee, we just heard gun shots! yikes! thanks to GOD this is a very thick bricked house. Scary....
well, ha- good night all... I gotta go investigate and be nosy....

What is Whitney Houston hiding...?

All the fidgeting
and the evasive answers
self convincing responses

That ring! Whew-did you see it Jeffrey?
Im so curious to see the full length interview, how much was edited out.

And the pillow clutching, insecurities??
Or, hiding the skinny?

Im confused, I was expecting a terminal illness during her confession.
Does this show pay her well, what's the reason behind this expose~? Sales on the Just Whitney album?
$100 million dollar law suit!
She shouldn't talk about it at all. Be careful what you say girl. Wow, turn off the camera please....
That was an emotional segment, but my lord the commercials are too much.

The daughter comes out, ------ well now. No comment.
I bet she could tell some stories.

Although I did not write about Winona and her shoplifting, I do adore Whitney and her talent.
So this interview was definitely something I wanted to check out and subscribe to her story and see how she looked, how she responds to the questions. Her body language when Bobby came out to sit next to her.
Most interesting. But who has the perfect life?
For whatever its worth, way to go girl.


-------------------------------------------------------

So, If I start my own business next week- (hmm) maybe in 2 years I can retire. How's that for an opening line, as I was propositioned today to join this groupie ladder type sales system, im guessing some type of facial products, as this guy and girl I work with are giving it a shot and the basis was someone who sits on the computer a lot. That's me for sure, so why the hell not.
we'll see what its all about and then you know I'll post my feelings and let you know what's up ... so like I said im guessing the product is face related or youth related, the guy was using a toner for men. Funny last week I went out bought some new facial cleansers. I have been having little breakouts, and my pores could use some shrinkage. Maybe its all the "beep beep" in my life causing the breakouts. I hope you caught the "beep beep".... every now and then its fun to throw that in.
What a fun I have had with that whole situation. So the guy did have a bad complexion the last time I had seen him, and seriously, it was not pretty. Well, he looks amazing, for simply using the toner. So, im curious. If I like it, we shall see maybe I'll have my own Internet business. Your all welcome to become millionaires right along with me. If its all about sharing and having a ladder type business (which I've tried before but not over the Internet ... well that's exactly what I'll do. I did want extra money eh?? As long as its not SPAM.
that shit is for the birds. But I might get some fancy software and get to make fun webpages. I'll keep you posted. Im am optimist, some days ;) Well I think its time to post and go to bed, look for the top 5 to be unleashed next week, im still playing with the layout for that, for now the link just takes you to bonbons2.
Happy reading everyone, Nice having you.
~me
p.s. went to get the disk as usual I forgot it when I decided to sit down and write, (she's a beep beepin in there)..... she must go thru more lube than me!
Yes, ew gross, later bye!

Intuitive Flash Update - Tuesday, December 3, 2002

"Mars Is On its Way - Will Mars be the Trigger for Earth Changes?"


In the Dec. issue of Intuitive Flash, we featured an article entitled "Mars Is On its
Way - Will Mars be the Trigger for Earth Changes?" In it we stated that Mars
would be closer to Earth next year than it has been in over 100 years.
Apparently, we understated the amount of time since Mars has been this close.
According to an article published on Nov. 8 on Space.com, astronomer, Jean
Meeus of Belgium has calculated that "at 5:51 a.m. EDT on Aug. 27, 2003, Mars
will be within 34,646,488 miles of Earth. This will be the closest that Mars has
come to our planet in about 73,000 years." It will be about 191 million miles
closer and it will appear more than six times larger and shine some 85 times
brighter than it appears now. I will update this upcoming event in greater detail
in the Jan. issue of Intuitive Flash.

For more on Mars see the audio tape Pyramids of Mars
