Guilty or Innocent: Everyone has them.

I know that most people have more than 5 guilty pleasures and trying to narrow them down to under 10 has been rather difficult. I didn't realize how many guilty pleasures I had. So here we go. Brace yourself.

#1 Yelling at random cars because I feel like they are going to slow. By slow I mean the speed limit. No cursing involved, if my son is in the car. I can get pretty intense behind the wheel. I go from sweet-edgy Betty Crocker to racing demon as soon as I turn the key. This is a serious matter for me. Just stay out of my way and we are good.

#2 My Blackberry 8900. This shouldn't be guilty except for my excessive use. I facebook, tweet, and text all day long. I feel lost without my phone. I take it in the bathroom with me. I have been known to shower with it too. Eck! (embarrassing)

#3 McDonald's Vanilla Iced Coffee. I am obsessed with these. Last week I was cleaning out my car and found 5, count them, 5 large empty cups. God help me they are so delicious. I can blind taste test each flavor. I could drink them instead of anything else.

#4 Miley Cyrus's music specifically Party in the USA. I know you're sitting there puzzled. I know so many people who hate Miley's music, but honestly it makes me want to act stupid and dance around like a big dork.

#5 Taking an excessive amount of pictures. I'm talking about 1,000's. I live by my mom's slogan "always take two, just in case." I have so many pictures on my laptops that I have to have flash drives to keep them all. I'm way too sentimental. I don't want to delete any of them "just in case". I justify this by saying that I love photography.

Wow I didn't realize how much of a dork I am. In the end, we all have guilty pleasures and without them our lives would be rather dull. Let me leave you with something to chew on, what are your guilty pleasures?

Who's health do they really care for?

March 22nd, 2010 Congress passed this new healthcare reform. In layman's terms, this bill will require everyone to purchase healthcare. Some people will be qualified for a hardship plan. This bill will cover all people and will create other taxes. A 10% increase for indoor tanning booths, big companies will have a 40% tax on higher-end insurances, and a 3.8% investment tax on families with an income over $250,000. Abortion from rape, incest, and/or the health of the mother, will be partially covered by the new reform, but this is only per state.

So what does this mean to us? If you are currently uninsured by 2016 you will be fined $695.00 for not having insurance. Virginia's attorney general Ken Cuccinelli said, "Congress lacks authority to force people to buy health insurance."

I personally do not agree with this bill. One great thing about America is our democracy. Other countries look up to us just based off of that fact. If we take away our citizen's right to choose, then we are falling back into a monarchy. We came to America for the rights of Americans. What's next a forcing everyone to own a Ford?

W 1 L 3

I heard this reference in a movie once, I believe it was A Series of Unfortunate Events with Jim Carey that explained death as; "It is a curious thing, the death of a loved one. It's like walking up the stairs to your bedroom in the dark and thinking there is one more stair than there is. Your foot falls down through the air and there's a sickly moment of dark surprise." This quote embodies exactly how I feel today. The worst part of this whole predicament is that I wasn't even that close to him. I attended middle and high school with him. I remember his smile and demeanor. He was a sweet person, fun loving, and after all rather attractive (honestly). Kind of Owen Wilson-esk. (laughing at myself) But the real question today is how much loss can one person take? I know that many people have lost their children, parents, and best friends, but when is it decided that it is enough for them? My sister-in-law lost her son, Jamie, at age 16. I can only imagine losing a child. I hope I will never see that day. I am only left with the question "Why?". I guess we will have to wait to find the answer, but until then, have a great night.

Welcome to my blog!

Wow, I've thought about how I wanted to start off my blog and without further ado...

WELCOME TO MY BLOGGITY-BLOG!

I'll start off with saying that I have absolutely nothing interesting to say. I am a 23 year old mother of 1. I am currently hunting for a job and a good sale. I spend entirely too much time at home. Cooking and cleaning mostly. I live in Virginia and enjoy our (mostly) beautiful weather. I do not get out much. Not because I don't want to, but mainly because that means I have to get dressed, do my makeup, and drive there. By the time I'm ready I have no energy left. Oh by-the-way, I have Lupus, which aids in me being tired a lot.

Happy St. Patrick's Day! My family is mostly Irish and we celebrate by making a traditional dinner. Boiled cabbage with potatoes and some polish kielbasa. Yum yum...

I watch entirely too many youtube videos. I enjoy the beauty gurus, geeks, and the SHAYTARDS!
