When did we forget our dreams?

Accept and Grow

"I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you can appreciate them when they’re right, you believe less so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.” ~ Marilyn Monroe“

Patch worn on the right sleeve of Mariners uniforms 2011 season. I want this patch…or just a new jersey with it will do.

Random Facts

~ I prefer 1ltr bottles of Pepsi to cans, 20oz, and 2ltr, and can make one last for 2 days. Fountain is my favorite but only when it’s mixed perfectly.

~ I hate anything touching my throat…therefore, zip hoodies > pullovers. Otherwise I yank at the neck and stretch them out.

~ I have higher self esteem than people think I do. I tend to point out any flaws I think others may see in me before they can. It hurts less when I say it, especially if I don’t necessarily believe it. Recently I’ve realized that this defense mechanism has also made made me seem to have no confidence, and that’s just not sexy - so I’m working on it.

~ I have hypochondriac tendencies.

~ Sweets are a security blanket. I buy large quantities so I won’t run out, eat them slowly, and stash them. I often forget I have anything and don’t find it until months later and have to throw it out.

~ If something isn’t done on a whim, I often back out.

~ I’m not diggin’ the Grey’s Anatomy musical episode.

Your turn…

If a dream is a wish my heart makes, then why the hell are mine so twisted and scary?

I'm not sayin', I'm just sayin....

It seems the subject of coffee (and therefore Starbucks) has been coming up a lot today. First with one gentleman accusing me of holding out (bullspit, I wasn’t holding out squat - Seattle’s Best is nasty compared to Starbucks and everyone knows I’m a loyal Starbucks freak)….Then someone with a coffee group asks what type of coffee we drink, how often, how we drink it, etc. Well, I’m pretty sure that’s what they were asking. Twitter has been all abuzz with coffee today as well.

Here’s my thing. I’m Starbucks faithful. I totally understand that there are some of you out there who love Dunkin’ Donuts, or Caribou Coffee, or Coffee Bean, or Jumpin’ Java down the street, or the little stand that your brother owns, or you canucks with your Tim Horton’s or whatever the dude’s name is. I understand that you could no sooner drink Starbucks in buckets than I could drink the coffee you prefer in buckets. And I respect that.

However, if you’re a gas station coffee drinker, don’t talk to me about coffee. I’m not saying you can’t talk to me at all…if that was the case, I’d never talk to one of my favorite people. But, please don’t tell me how you go to the local Shell station and get a $1.50 latte out of the machine and it’s just as good as Starbucks. Effin’ GROSS. That is not just as good as Starbucks. That’s not even as good as something you could concoct at home with a cheap cappuccino machine. Hell, that’s not even as good as some weirdo’s coffee and root beer mixed drink (gag). Claiming that a latte out of a vending machine is “just as good as….” ANY coffee shop coffee is insulting to coffee drinkers across the world. Puh-lease. That’s like saying septic tank water is refreshing.
