"I have not failed.  I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work"

Thomas Edison

I'm on a Highway to...

Hey Everyone!

I was thinking about taking a road trip.  It's been a year (give or take) since I've been able to go anywhere.  Last February was the last time I went anywhere road trip wise.  That was when my other half got sick and I was grounded to taxi duty.

Not that it's a bad thing, I am just more of a free spirit.  I don't like to be grounded.  So instead of taking an actual road trip.  How about I give you a tour of a different road trip.  One that's a trip of my mind and memories.

I am like that girl on the bridge:  Alone with her cluttered memories.  Memories that no one else cares about. It's only me and my weird ways.

So, I will find myself a chimney sweeper and maybe, just maybe, he will sweep all these unwanted memories away.

First memory I want erased:  My obsession with trying to find a friend to hang out with.

All my life I've never had a sister and I always wanted a friend...A best friend. One I can hang with and tell and share secrets with.  We would be like sisters.  35 years have come and gone and I still don't have someone like that.

I've learned to live in solitude.  At first it was lonely but I am becoming okay with it.  I thought writing this wouldn't bother me but it does.  So Chimney Sweeper!  Do your job!!!  Erase my feelings of loneliness and this crazy need for wanting the perfect best friend.  The only way I'll have one is to clone myself.

Which is what brings me to write down my New Years resolution that is number 9 on my list.  I wish to learn how to detach.

I post something and I become all OCD over it.  This is how I am though. Whether a simple post or hanging with someone.  The OCD kicks in and I have to attach myself like a barnacle to a ship.  Yeah, that's going to stop. I will learn to detach.  Everything and everyone learns how to let go. I keep holding on to hope or something that's never going to happen.

I never thought I'd find a nice quote coming from that man LOL.

When I discover more on my road trip inside my mind, I will keep you informed.  I try not to make my blogs  very long as I do not wish to bore anyone.

Until Next Time...

Trying

I've always heard in the movies: If you build it, they will come.  Well, I've been building and building and building. All I got in the end is nothing.  I can't figure it out!  Am I holding on too tight?  What's going on?  How is it others can be as persistent as I am and I'm the one that fails?

I know I'm ready to reach my goal.  But I just don't know when it will happen for me.  Sounds weird, huh?  Oh well.  That's all I've got to say.

Just know I write this because maybe somewhere down the line it could benefit someone who is where I can say I was there before.

No Holiday is a Good Day

Hey All,

Yes, like the title?  Call me a Scrooge on all occasions.  I don't like holidays, period.  Every time you start to like something, it becomes commercialized.  Like Your Song.




Although, I do wish they would commercialize Earth Day more.  Fat chance of that happening I bet.

Instead of lighting candles as a ritual, we could be using our new ritual implements:  A stick, gloves, and a garbage bag.  But hey, I am a dreamer.

I hope you enjoy this little blog.  It's not much as I've been truly busy.  I'm hoping to be able to write some more later on.

Hey, did you know you can tag others in a blog???  Interesting.

Anyway...I'm going.  But before I do....A friend of mine sent me this pic.  She knows how I like these creepy kinds of things.  What do you think?

Until next time...

See You On The Dark Side

As I think of Dark Side of the Moon
All I can do is sit around and swoon

Thoughts of grandeur when I look
The album cover, hearing the hook

Light glaring on crystal, colors within
A rainbow-like world for me to fit in

A visible spectrum shining bright
Taking it all in with just my sight

All hyperbole; nothing of norm
As I head in the eye of the storm

The ride is over and there I sit
The concert's over, I must exit
