Current mood:  hungry
Category: Blogging
When I was in Mascoutah High school I had to take Communications with Mrs. Z.   {twice haha}  One of the things she taught us about were, Explosion words.   When a word is said it may cause an explosion of thinking in a person.   Your brain connects it to something else and you begin to think about that other thing instead of what the word really meant..... or something to that effect.
Well last night I realized that MY brain reacts to Everything like an explosion word.   Sometimes I have to backtrack my thought process just to get back to a conversation.    And the last thing i thought about had NOTHING to do with the original line of thought.
After I realized that I started laughing and could only think of peter griffin.  
"Do you even listen to yourself while your talking?"
"EH, I drift in and out.."

So heres the thought proces that lead me to this conclusion.  Last night Rob says something about our cooler not working or something because it's warm in the house, right before bed.   So theres no distractions and I start thinking about the cause of Heat in our house.:

Starting with the cooler and system itself I think about the heater, is it turned off completely?
Has the control been turned up?
The pilot light Did go off right?
I wonder if its something else?
Did We cook big meals Everynight since the cooler went on?
What about Max's Heat lamp?

I think thats a 100 watt bulb.
I had to replace it last year what was it?
wow last year he was tiny.
I need to take new pictures of max and me.
He's so cute.
Except when he falls asleep and looks dead.....
I hate it cause it makes me want to shake the cage.
Maybe I could just yell.
MMMAAXXXX   hahahah
I wonder if high pitched screams still send off ground vibrations like a low mans rumble?
like if I yelled at max would he feel it on the ground of his cage?

If someone were laying on a rail road track listening, and I screamed miles away would it reverberate to them as a whisper?
Wow being tied to the train tracks musta sucked.
Like old westerns, they thought of some crazy ways to kill people.
like that guy buried in the sand.

Oh what movie was that?
With jackie chan and his hair..
Here's some chop sticks, dig
Shanghi Noon thats rights.
I liked that movie
Ohhh you cut off his hair now he's mad
how come you got the cool name.....
it'd be funny if he said, do understand that words that our coming out of mah mouth?

No that was the other movie.
It'd still be funny though.
I liked that one as well
with chris tucker...
what was that one?
the girl assassin lady...
Oh yeah rush hour
they made three of those didnt they?
wow
I liked the second but dont remember the third...
all well.
hahah  family guy made fun of them.
Passion of the christ  2....  You know how to use one of THESE??

I like family guy.
I love the random quotes.
I HAVE SPOKEN
did you know if you say kate ballard with a stuffed nose it sounds like Mallard
Eh i drift in and out...
Hahaha  I'm like peter cause i drift in an out...
Wait i was thinking about something
{Backtrack thought process}
oh yeah the swamp cooler...
I need to check the gauges and controls in the morning


Yeah thats my thought process, that was a small sample of what it's like to live inside my head.  I just felt like bloggin in for prosperities sake, or something..... dont ask my to think of something snappy.   I'll just end up in a five minute daze while my brain explodes.
:)

Later, all, Em

Night Shift (Jill Kismet Novels)
By Lilith Saintcrow
April 28, 2009 - Tuesday 
Wake in the morning, still yawning
kids already up, day is dawning.
Brush teeth, hair, rub my eyes
shuffle to kitchen, coffee and sighs.

Bus stop standing, watching the time
wave goodbye, a few minutes all mine.
Check email, myspace and play,
Then off to get dressed for the day

Drive to work, red lights stopping me
Park, wash lettuce, start making tea
Unlock the door, open the sign
Turn on that smile of mine

Finish the rush, sit a spell
Quick lunch, laugh, stories to tell
Back to the dishes, clean up the store
Drive home to work some more

Take off work shoes, a second to sit back
Bus tires stop, time to make a snack
"Go play for a bit."  I wanna rest
try to find something to relax me best

Watching tv, few more minutes for me
Kids come in, tummies hungry
Make dinner, get to sit and eat
Back to dishes, more sore feet.

Make sure Homeworks done, Pets fed
Brush your teeth, it's time for bed.
Goodnights and hugs, giggles and a kiss
One of the few things I'll never miss.

House is silent, just lay and relax,
Oops forgot laundry, trip on backpacks
Go take a shower, warm water falls
want more time, but sleepiness calls

Crawl into bed, so warm and comfy
Feel dreams start to pull me
Wait, get up, put clothes in dryer
make sure the dogs in and nothings on fire

Finally all lights are off, refuse to leave bed
cuddly up cozy and worries leave my head
Stress leaves as Dreams wash like rain
Moments of insanity till life calls again.

No i dont always feel like this, and actually I havent had a day QUITE this bad.   as in i havent tripped on backpacks AND forgot laundry on the same day.... but i have done both. hahah

Just felt like writing something rhyming and funny, so decided to put a working mom poem out there that could make people laugh, or maybe even relate and know someone else goes through it to.   Just thought it'd be cute :)

Laters all..... I gotta figure out what we're doing for dinner.

If anyone was wondering where I'd dissapeared to, it was my house.   Life sucked me in and chewed on me for awhile and my broken fingers wouldn't let me type.... yeah
No Back in December Rob got home from Korea, we had xmas, vegas, new years, Work, St Pats, Work, Birthday, work, birthday AND easter, work.....   see a pattern?  
But i'm trying hard to start getting back on here and been visiting blogs, slowly commenting on pictures, workin my app's, bringing my poker game back, slowly reintegrating myself into the inet :)   
I've been writing almost no poetry as I've focused more on my books.  But I stopped sending out request letters to agencies.    No one wants to publish new Fiction authors right now and I'm tired of wasting stamps and paper.   So i'm just gonna work on finishing book 2, and book1 of the new series i'm starting.   I'm thinking of taking some more college art classes so my illustrations for the kids books look better.
Just wanted to kinda update everyone on whats up cause I havent been ON here for a long time.   In fact 5 months on myspace is like years in real life right? ;)    so no i didnt die, I was not abducted, I didnt join a cult, I Did dye my hair though......
I'm gonna go get to work, but i promise i won't let it keep me away hahah   I'm gonna start working more, and was thinking about starting up the monthly challenge again.   Kinda start my own creative wheel turning and bring some of you along for the ride.  
laters, Em

It could be a poem
Someday hold a painting
Become an airplane
An official letter of treaty
A hurtful Dear John note

it waits


Not knowing its destiny
Patiently waiting its turn
Slowly sees the light
A page turns above
The pencil draws close

The Iron Hunt (Hunter Kiss, Book 1)

October 31, 2008 - Friday 

Current mood:  ashamed

Ok, a good friend blogged about a howard stern show.  I normally dont listen to howard, I think he's funny, but I dont listen to radio much.   Apparently Sal went to harlem, and asked people about their choice for the upcomming election.

He put McCains policies, under Obama's name, and people were saying yeah I agree!    So they agree with the policy... or just the name...   here listen :
http://www.bpmdeejays.com/upload/hs_sal_in_Harlem_100108.mp3

Now Seriously listen to that, because people are voting for obama because they think this country needs a change, yet they dont even know what his plans are??

I am not endorsing anyone in this Blog, even though I know who I want to vote for.  BUT PLEASE  PLease please please...

IF your going to vote, Please read up and LEARN about the candidates.  Not their faces, not their heritage, not their family, But their policies!!  Learn what they have planned for our country.  LEARN about them and make an EDUCATED choice.  

I have heard so many people say that if you dont vote for Obama your a racist, if you dont vote because of Palin your a sexist,  If you vote for McCain your a war monger, Yadda yadda yadda.....

So voting for Obama proves I'm not racist??   Since when does voting for someone purely on their skin NOT racist?

When is Voting for a female Purely because shes female NOT sexist?

Since when does a persons military career make them a war monger?

I just think that everyone needs to Erase the faces, histories, and names off the POLICIES, Look over what each candidate wants for teh country.
Pick the POLICY you like best, and then look at the name.  I think alot of people from BOTH sides would be surprised who'd they vote for.  

Vote for a Leader because of what they want to lead us To
Dont vote for someone because of their sex, age, or heritage.

And if you dont want to take it upon yourself to LEARN about Both parties, and make an educated decision, Please stay home on election day.

 

SORRY for the rant, but hearing that made me go WOW.

Current mood:  bummed
Category: Writing and Poetry

The pounding of each heart beat,
Resonating in my brain
Each step upon the floor
Adding to the pain
A migraine that wont cease
And threatens to bring tears
Laying in the dark and silence
Each minute feels like years
Boredom setting in,
Three days now stuck in bed
Fighting the need to leave
Have to heal my head
Everytime I turn
Every light that shines
The pressure in my skull
Makes me want to whine
Fifteen years now I have dealt
With headaches big and small
I just wish I could snap my fingers
Be rid of them at once and for all

 

Yeah I hate migraines.   At least I can open my eyes today. Em

I was playing around with different ideas and thoughts and this piece showed up on my screen.   Let me know what you think.

 

Don't need my eyes
Aug 31, 2008

I don't need eyes to see you
For your not your appearance
I can see in all you do
Sight is just interference

I can see straight into your soul
know you better every day
I can see your self-control
and see your moral decay

I hear your words when you act
when your true self comes through
eyes could never see exact
can never see the real you

I can feel your heart beat
when you hold me close
whether obscene or discreet
that's when I know you most

so I can close my eyes
listen, feel, breathe you in
know all that underlies
and all that dwells within

For sight can twist reality
show me what I want to see
but it is your
sexuality
sensuality
spirituality
abnormality
duality
irrationality
morality
practicality
That speak to me

When i close my eyes
and finally see you

Alright, i'm off to go watch a movie or something, Night all :)  Em

Burning Alone
Aug 22, 2008

Knowing you cannot be with me,
Has started a burning in my heart

I have never felt such fire
Lighting my body and soul

I feel it char the inside of my skin
Tracing the path of imagined fingers

Nothing will sate the flames
They are ever lit inside my veins

I remember the way you held me
And am again enveloped in heat

I turn my head to fight for air
As it races through my body

I close my eyes and wish for you
To help me extinguish the inferno

As I am engulfed I sigh with relief
but know I will always burn for you.
