It was a combination of lovely ceremony and chaos. I will be forever grateful that I got to be apart of everything and that I was moral support for her. So officially there where 4 events: signing the marriage contract, Turmeric smearing (this ceremony has a name that starts with an H but I can't spell it), wedding part 1 (her family hosts and ( Read more... )

They can really make my life miserable. I love them lots but sometimes I feel like it's all so stupid. He wants the easy way out and she wants to protect him so that she doesn't lose another child ( Read more... )

I'm watching the Wizard of Oz and the Tin Man seems like a very gay character after all these years. Does anyone else think so? Maybe it's just the eyeshadow giving me visions of drag queens.

There are obnoxious kids in my yard setting off firecrackers! I've ran them out of the yard a number of times but if I don't stay at the door/window they seem to wander back in the yard. What happened to the times when parents watched their kids while they played with firecrackers? There isn't an adult anywhere near these kids other than myself ( Read more... )

After mooning over Ani D. I decided that I had to listen to her albums. Of course the first cd I played was To the Teeth only to discover that it's sooo badly scratched that it's unplayable. I remember that I let a college friend borrow it, but when I got it back it was messed up. I apparently haven't listened the the cd in 5 years. I was going ( Read more... )

Apparently NOW is giving Ani D. a "Women of Courage" award. Yay for Ani! I'd be surprised if she showed up for it. I think that she's not really a fan of being honored for something she thinks everyone should be doing ( Read more... )

I want to be frida kahlo. I want to have her sense of style. I guess I don't want to be her exact twin but I would like to play with clothes the way she did. She was over the top but always lovely. She was such a flirt with the camera. Why is she so photogenic? I love frida. I love her insecurities and her passion. I love the way she dealt ( Read more... )

The ever lovely Lacey is making my shrug for my reddish purple dress, so that's one dress I no longer have to worry about (except that i'm still trying to find the perfect gold shoes but that's another issue entirely.) I will be ever grateful to Lacey for helping me out ( Read more... )

It's just been a while since I wrote anything and I thought that I should update my journal. I've been motivated by the fitness lj communities that I am part of to be more active. I have been waiting for my move to Portland to really make exercise routine. But I've been thinking that maybe I need to get active so that I can be ready to be more ( Read more... )

Sleep and I used to be good friends. I don't know what happened to her. She likes messing with me. She's lets me feel a little tired and drowsy but the moment I hit the bed I'm wide awake. Sleep, must you be so cruel?! All a girl wants is just a little rest at night. Is that really too much to ask? But no! You can't do that for me can you ( Read more... )
