Here's a life lesson: My critics (cyber-bullies) are a shining example of why tabloids written of you should only be laughed at, and not taken seriously. I'm always subject to harsh criticism, but it takes a special level of narrow-minded idiocy to accuse someone of being a heritical catholic witch, a homophobe, and cheating on my husband with my gay, male best friend, all in the same paragraph. I got irritated a few days ago, when they reared their ugly heads. And, then my aforementioned gay friend pointed out how utterly hilarious it was that the cyber-bullies accused an alleged anti-gay homophobe of cheating on her husband with a gay guy in heels and a leather mini skirt. Put that way, I almost suffocated laughing. The lesson: especially relevant to all of us seeking the pubic spotlight; there will always be an uneducated critic to spew false, hateful words. Save some sanity by learning to laugh. Laughter is the secret to health, happiness, and success. And, it generally baffles someone who came seeking to break you down. Love and laughter coming your way on this Tuesday! Voted!

Lack of forethought: This past Tuesday, I spent about thirty minutes in conversation with a car mechanic, at a Goodwill, who started the conversation after seeing my POS car, due to spontaneously explode any day. He finally asked what I did for a living, and I told him I was a psychic. The next words out of his mouth were: "Oh cool! Can you predict the lotto numbers?" I politely told him that's not how it works. In my head, I was laughing, thinking, "Yes, I drive a POS car all over CO because I like the thrill of wondering if this will be the day the car spontaneously combusts." Have a great Saturday! Voted!
I am sending you an Irish wish for your Sat.: As you slide down the banister of life, may the splinters never point in the wrong direction. Vote is in!
Auto-correct, T9, and predictive text is an evil invention. And, I think my auto-correct is learning to hate me. It chooses the most abstract words imaginable to replace normal words with. Sunstone = someone. Haiku = family. Rasputin = redemption. I'm apparently Jesus. And, every "d" word I type becomes, "dedtoys." I wasn't aware that was even a word. But, I didn't put it in, and I can't delete it. What is that, phone?! Technology, still as helpful as ever. I can handle my internet affairs on my smrt phone until I replace my computer. But I have to proofread everything, or the message I sent that was supposed to say, "Please accept my sympathies," is liable to become (and HAS), "Please accept my dinosaurs." Ugh. Can I just have an owl to deliver my messages? Haha! Have a great day! Voted.
On this Friday I will tell you something I have learned through experience: There are basically two types of people. People who accomplish things, and people who claim to have accomplished things. The first group is less crowded. Be in group one! Vote is in.
