"Love is a minefield. You take a step and get blown to pieces, put yourself back together again and stupidly take another step. I guess that's human nature. It hurts so much to be alone that we'd all rather blow up than be single". Kate Welles (Famke Janssen) in Love & Sex (2000)

13/10/2009 Well today is the first full day that the chickens have lived here. Delivered yesterday by a "Chicken Chauffer" in a large van bearing the logo "Omelet" , all four hens have settled in well. The first night was a little tricky though - they had to be shown how to climb the ladder and roost in the special "Egglu". I was knee deep in wood chippings gently showing them where they had to go - the hardest part of which being my effort to extract myself from the long wire run once this was done. So - eggs? Not yet...

Dad always said his grey hair came from me.  He'd point to his head and say things like, "ya see this?!?  this is what I get for having 2 girls.  This bunch here, this is from when the older one knocked her teeth out.  This patch? Ah, that's from when I lost her in a puddle.  And this?  This is from when she got expelled from high school."  He wore his greys proudly, showing them off occasionally, like an old football injury or war wound.  To him, they were almost like family photos, memories he carried with him everywhere he went.

So I was thinking...hmm...is that such a bad thing. I have 9 piercings and 4 tattoos now. I plan on getting at least 5 more tattoos and about 5 to 8 more piercings. She freaks everytime I get a new one. She doesn't know about a few of them...Thank goodness for clothes. I was just wondering what everyone thought about piercings and tattoos if they are done tastefully?

When someone calls your roommates boyfriend and informs them they have a puppy they need to get rid of...make sure before you agree to buy the dog you ask HOW OLD the puppy is. I was expecting a cute little ball of energy. I ended up with an adorable 9 month old dog. Who is technically still a puppy, but...not what I expected. Better in a few ways, she's 90% house broken. Still very puppy like in wanting to CHEW CHEW CHEW. They had named her Bugsy...which I am not too fond of. I changed it to Baby. Which I like better, but it still sounds close.

well, ive been up all day and all night. one of the bad parts about having a night time job is when you have days off you still stay up till 3 or 4 in the morning. bah. who needs sunlight anyway? i mean, if it weren't for the whole . . .we need oxygen, trees make oxygen, trees need sunlight for photosynthesis than i would be all for no at all. ok, not really. i tend to look VERY bad when i'm TOO pasty white, ha!

I've been told a few times in the last few weeks that I've become a not very nice person.  I've asked the people who have said this why they think that is. No one really has an answer.  So this has been on my mind for a few days. I wonder what makes them say I'm not nice. I realize it's because I don't cater to everyone anymore. My needs come first, and a lot of people who have been my friends for a long time aren't used to that.

i was so touched today i feel compelled to write about an awakening and unexpected experience that happened today. i was having lunch with my mother-in-law and before leaving i went to the restroom to change my sons diaper. while i was in there i was talking to my son and trying to get him to laugh instead of cry. a totally natural thing to do, so i thought. there was a young woman washing her hands next to the changing station and she commented on how beautiful he was. i thanked her and then she made a comment about his onesie and how cute it was. i thanked her again.

*swoons* How sexy is Andrei?! I mean... wow. This is one of his best acts. He was about 19-20 yrs old in this It's before he got famous, before he had is own theatre show (he was still with Theatre Kompot). He's a true talent!! Hope you all are as enchanted by him as I am!

Have you ever been really in love with someone, but felt like it was all falling apart? It sucks. I do not know what's going on with us, but I miss how it used to be... we barely talk anymore... I feel alone. :[ милая, я тебя люблю навсегда...
