Mini Pizzas!

Forgot to post about the non dairy vegan cheese we tried. Mike and I were strolling around downtown and found a special diets deli with an attached grocer. Bitchin'. I was having to order Ayden's stuff online and now that we've found this place I just have to go a few miles. I love it. The guy there looks like an old hippie and he says he'll order anything we need.



We made english muffin mini pizzas. Mike shredded the cheese and it melted a little. When it was done it resembled shredded chicken or something. To my surprise it was delicious! Forgive the blurry pictures, I'm in dire need of a new camera.



When we get our taxes back one of the first places I'm headed is to that specialty store to stock up on everything Ayden needs. I'm in need of a breadmaker and an ice cream maker so we can make our own non dairy sorbet.

Buddism and video games

For the past couple of days I've been in a funk of a mood. Usually being broke doesn't get to me very much. Nothing you can do about it except work harder and I'm trying to pick up extra hours at work. Not having nice things isn't what bothers me. I've needed a haircut for months now, it's long, scraggly and my gray is coming in with a vengeance. My old fillings are hurting me and there are times I bite down and damn near hit the ceiling from the pain. Unfortunately cramps are making me less patient than most days. At least I can look at this picture and smile.



We went to the library today and I checked out a few books. One on Autism, specifically Pervasive Developmental Disorder-NOS which is what Ayden has. Another one called "Buddhism for Dummies" and another about Jesus theories, what if he survived the crucifixion, etc. I don't care what they ever scientifically find it will never shake my belief in Jesus for the simple fact that it brings me comfort and that's enough for me. However I do enjoy reading anything with a conspiracy twist to it so hence the check out.

The Lost video game came out yesterday. I don't have enough money to buy it yet but you better believe I'm renting it as soon as they get it in the local video store.

Golden statues and tanks

So the Academy Awards aka The Oscars aired last night and probably broke the record for least amount of viewers. Does anyone even bother watching it anymore? I worked an overnight last night so if I hadn't been on break when they where broadcasting I would have never even known it was that time of year again. Call me lazy, I'd rather get the highlights from a professional blogger who has to sit through that dry ass show.



I wonder what the ratio of drunk vs. sober people in the audience was. If I did drink, I'd have to go hammered, what else is there to do, bring the Nintendo DS? Socially I bet it's more acceptable there to be shitfaced than it is to bring a hand held video game.

On another note, I worked from 7pm to 4:15am this morning. Normally I start work at 6am so it was nice to get a little change going on. I used to work third shift and at times it was fun but I don't miss it. After a while it threw my body completely out of whack.

We were there to make some moves for the incoming product. I stayed pretty energetic but when 3am came around I was feeling it for sure. If I had taken a nap earlier I'm sure I'd have been able to shake it off. I'd been up for 20 hours and definitely ready to cuddle with my pillow.

Last but not least I worked on a table of tank tops for forty five minutes. My back was killing me at the end of it but I had to take a picture because this table won't look like this tomorrow when I get back to work.

How many eyes do you have?

Recently Oprah added a new book to her club and although I'm not one to jump on the Oprah band wagon, she did spark my interest so I will be soon purchasing the book A New Earth. It's gotten so many great reviews that I just couldn't ignore it and figured I'd take a look. Next pay day I'm heading straight to Amazon.com to order it.



My life's purpose needs to be seriously awakened so I'm up for the challenge. I've been thinking about making many changes in my life and I'm not sure how to implement them. One thing at a time I guess. Organization is the key for me and I feel like I'm all over the place. I'd like to be eating more organic food and eventually cut red meat completely out of my diet. Meditation is also something I'm interested in along with yoga.



Being more spiritually in touch with myself and my surrounds are my goal. Intergalactic oneness would be a great achievement. Anxiety and depression are major issues in my life and all though they don't rule, there are times when they try. I keep myself in check for the most part, seeking help when it's needed but I never feel like anyone has the answer I'm looking for. Maybe the answer is within myself and I just have to figure out the tools to find it. Stand back, I'm about to pry open my third eye!

Welcome

Hi all and welcome to the new spot. Felt the need to cut out all the other stuff and just concentrate on my writing. I had recently found Jorge Garcia's blog (he is Hurley on the show LOST) and enjoyed reading it so much I figured I resurrect the blogspot page I had before Myspace sucked me in.

So here goes...
