Merry X-mas

Merry Christmas to everyone. I hope this X-mas brings lots of joy and lots of presents. HAPPY HOLIDAYS

BRRRRRR

Currently I am up in PA where it is BRRR cold. There is snow on the ground also. I havn't seen snow in a year so it took me by surprise. I am ready for warm Mississippi agian even though Danny and I are going to Europe in Feb. when its going to be butt ass cold....anywhoo..I got my grades today and I really am a college graduate...it feels surreal and weird. I'm not sure I really grabbed the concept yet. and I probley won't until school roles around next year and i don't have to go. All righty thats all for now...

HELL YA

FIVE WORDS:

I AM A COLLEGE GRADUATE!!!!!!!

Friday, Blue told me it was the Christmas season. He said he is going to apply for a new job at the Turtle Creek Mall. Once again I was forced to take him to the new Target and fetch him an outfit for his interview. Sadly he did not get the job because he couldn't figure out how to work the shoes. But he's practicing for future endevors. Be on the look out he might be ringing one of thoose bells outside the grocery store. But Whatever you do DON'T GIVE HIM MONEY. He is not giving it to the Salavation Army, hes starting a fund for more outfits. I wish this nonsense would just stop!

been awhile

so nothing that exciting has been happening latley...except it was my 23rd birthday last week! kept it low key just wasn't that into it this year. usually i have a birthday month but i decided to tone it down. did get some cool presents like a backpack for europe. can't wait to go. I'm gonna get plane tickets this week for the jaunt. anywhoo i'll post a longer post soon. oh I did get a red peacoat to from danny..its so awesome. we went to old navy and there was a black one there, but he didn't want to buy it for me so we got into a fight. then we went to the mall and while we were at sears he told me to go look for something for my birthday. I then informed him i wasn't a Sears shopper. not five minutes later he spotted that coat. I knew i had to have it. after making fun of my i'm not a sears shopper comment for 20 minutes he got it for me. He also bought me a choclate fountian. Its so freaking cool. anyways i'll post more later....

Posted by ro @ 9:17 pm in fame
its hard to be famousthat sounds so bad but it’s true
i was super famousfor a few years
in my 30’s
i am now 43

as i wasi have used the word famous
four times already

who went before u
into the big waves

we all got to see
their life trajectory
beautifully coloredmeteor showers
crooked and crazed
broken and brave

very pure inside him
his core is yellow
and always has been

there is only one code of honor
decency
--------------If anyone can make any sense of this let me know..cause i can't.

I'm sitting at work. 150% EXHAUSTED..ugg...so i went and saw Elizabeth town two nights ago. What a suckey movie. It was a big fat stink bomb. Though it was cool cause i went by myself and had the whole theatre to myself. It was like I was sitting in my own private screening..that is the only aspect to the movie that didn't blow monkey balls. anywho. also saw transporter 2. Its okay for an action movie even though their not my cup of tea. I like a movie with diaolog and plot, not just I'm gonna kick your ass and blow you and your mommas house up. On another note, I am now a yellow belt in karate. I think I am going to stick with Karate i'm really growing to like it. anyways, i must pay attention to customers agian and stop blogging.

Hey

Hey guys just wanted to post and say I just found out my cousin Aaron is going to be on the today show tomorrow. He lost his leg in Iraq and is apparently becoming something of a celebrity...Be sure to tune in :)

dogs

I have had a few comments about the pictures of the dog. No Blue doesn't really talk to me okay Jeffrey. I was just bored and having a little fun. :) I am not a crazy dog person!

Barbies

As a child I loved to play with Barbies. I loved to dress them up in all diffrent outfits. As an adult I have not grown out of this habit. Now instead of Barbies I have my Blue. He is like a dress up doll for adults. Its great. He can be a pirate.. but since we don't live next to the ocean he decided he needed to become something more realistic where he could become successful....

but since we don't live next to the ocean he decided he needed to become something more realistic where he could become successful....(As you can tell he is a big fan of playing dress-up can't you see the excitment on his face!!!)when Blue found out that Danny was working construction he decided that is what he wanted to do too. So he made me go to the store and get him an outfit. So I went out and got him his outfit and he went out looking for work..

Unfortunatly he was unsuccessful. Blue was so sad, he had his tools and everything. So he went back home and pondered what he would do next over a cup of coffee. (Yes Blue now drinks coffee, he is 21 years old after all! And even though I don't approve he still does it anyways.) He decided he was not going to be a pirate or a construction worker. Blue made the descision to become a great thinker. He asked me to take him to the library so he could think. But I informed him that he just couldn't go there naked. So he made me go out agian and I got him his thinking outfit. He tried to go to the Library but the wouldn't let him in for fear of someone stepping on him.
So in the end Blue quit and went back to his corner on the couch till the next time I find him another outfit to play dress up in.

My trip to the coast

I went and visitied Danny yesterday and right when I got there her took me south of the railroad tracks and showed me the damage. As I was driving down there nothing looked to terrible but once you crossed over the tracks the devastation was emense. I could not belive it. Even though I have looked at hundereds of pictures on the internet nothing can prepare you for what you is really down there.

The piles are taller then me. Just piles of peoples houses on the side of the road.






















The house on the left is almost impossible to get to because you have to climb over the all the ruble just to get inside. I'll post more pics over the next few days. But man the picutres do no justice.

more pictures

In this picture you can see where the water line stops

Pictures

I've been asked to put up more pictures that I have. I will do it in bits as it is time consuming so there will be more to come and when I go down there on Tuesday I will take tons more. But here are some more for right now.
Ok no where this house which is across the street looks normal to the naked eye, it is not. If you look closley at it you can see it tilting to the side this is because the house floated five feet off of its foundation.
This was a catholic school three blocks away for Danny's house. Danny told me as he was digging through the debree in his yard he was finding lunch trays, meal tickets, stuffed animals and outher stuff from this school.

This is the depree surrounding someones house. It is so high that even though her house is still standing she can barley get into it. By her front door is the second story to someone else house. Not just the roof but the entire second story sitting in her doorstep.

Here is the drive way to someones house. It was on the right hand side where the grass was real green.
The picture above is the foundation to here a house once was. This is just in Long Beach, Mississippi alone right in Danny's neighbor hood. But somehow Danny's house made it through okay. Not sure other then pure luck.
Anyways, onto other subjects. My dog Blue is scared shitliss of rain and storms. If its raining outside he won't go outside to pee he'll just hold it in. During the hurricane, he was flying off the handle. I just couldn't get him to calm down. In this picture you can really see how stressed out blue was.

Who understands animals? Really makes no sense to me. While I was hiding in the hallway scared Blue obviously knew we would be okay. He didn't have a care other then getting in his daily nap.

Well I'll post some more pics tommorow hopefully. Then I am going to the coast Tuesday so I can take more pictures since Danny didn't understand what I said when I said take lots of pictures. He is down there right now ripping stuff up and cleaning up the area. He called me whinning today about how this labor shit sucks. Ha ha its good for him he hasn't worked in awhile and its about time he did something. Yesterday he had to rip wood flooring that had been glued to cement. Better him then me.

I've got karate tommorow. This was supposed to be an easy class. Well after the 50 push ups and 200 sit ups on Wensday I am starting to doubt how easy it will really be. After Wensday I couldn't lift my arms 2 inches. There was some major pain going on. All right till later.

If you look to the back of the picture you can see where the water line stops. The garage is danny's garage and his house is on the right hand side. The house in the back is his grandpa's house.
This is a street near danny's house in long beach. In between all thoose trees there were once houses.
I feel the need to rant and rave for a moment. I am finally gathering how big this hurricane really is. I mean I knew it but I could not grasp it since I was so disconnected from the world for so long. It is so agravating listening to the bitching all these celebirities and people are doing. They are not down here they do not know what life has been like. I am lucky to have been on the outskirts of all this but it has still had such a profound effect on me. But it saddens me that all people can do is bitch about what the government is not doing for them. I love New Orleans, and the Mississippi Gulf Coast was like a second home to me. My heart aches for everyone who is in this mess. I will never forget the night after the hurricane. I sat in the car with Danny and listened to Kicker 108. It was the only radio station that could actually get up and running. All the people calling looking for their loved ones and asking about there homes it was so sad because most of the peoples homes were gone.Danny was lucky his parents home only 3 blocks from the coast remained untouched. I don't know how but it did. The water ran up past his house yet it didn't go in. But he was one of the few that were lucky. Then there are these fucking celebirities using the moment to push their political agendas. It makes me so sick. I am a person who loves their celebirity gossip but now I can barley look at a magazine. While there in the designer studs in their multi-million dollar mansions they critize and yet they do so little. After all its not them, it didn't happen to them and their friends. So many of my friends and their families have lost everything. I can't even coprehend. I know I am ranting and babbling a little bit but I just can not help it.

Anyways, I have tons more pitures which I'll post when I get the energy. I am still trying to get back into the motions of normalcy again. I am going to the coast on Tues. to visit Danny who is working cleaning up the coast right now.

Also thank you to everyone for their prayers and support through this time. You'll never know how much it means to me.

lastest post

Sorry it has taken me so long but I have limited acess to the internet right now. Man you don't know how good it is to have constant internet till you don't have it anymore. I am okay and everything is starting to get back to normal in Hattiesburg. Danny's house is okay somehow were not sure since he lives only blocks from the oceans. I'll post Pictures as soon as I have better internet acess. Thank you to everyone who have helped me out during this storm. This whole experience has been surreal and it is definatly something I will never forget. I hope everyone is doing okay. I'll write a longer post later when I have my own computer with internet.

1:40 Am

It is 1:40 in the morning..still up..parinoid about the hurricane even though I know I will be all right. As of right now the wind is starting to pick up some but its not raining yet. I'll try and stay posted till I lose power which will happen eventually. The hurricane will be a cat 1 or 2 when it hits us. Hopefully there is not to much damage.

Hurricane

I am hoping that this storm is not going to be as devastating to New Orleans and the coast as it sounds like its going to be. It's 11:16 right now and in a few hours this area is going to be in a world of hurt and my heart is going out to all the people in danger of the storm. I just hope its turns out okay.

KATRINA

Every time a hurricane is supposed to hit here, i get frenetic nervous then I have my mom call me 80 times an hour to make sure I am surviving okay. And in the end all it is is just a little rain. So this time, I havn't gone to Wal-Mart to buy supplies, I am not nervous, and I don't think it'll be bad here. And I know in the pit of my stomach how WRONG i am. Its coming here no way around it. Maybe it'll change its path at the last minute and head to Mexico, that sure would be nice. But I doubt it. But this time I am going to rebel. I'm not buying supplies and I'm not going to get nervous. Mom you don't have to call me 80,000 times cause it'll be okay. I refuse to watch the news anymore because this afternoon I was watching CNN and he was talking about how the whole MS coast and New Orleans was going down and it is going to be so bad. He predicted that New Orleans would be under water for well over a year. Ha I think if it goes under no one really cares to bring it back out again. I'm not scared though it is not going to hit here. Screw it. What is there really to be scared of a little rain that would flood out my apartment thus ruining everything I own. A little wind tearing everything apart. How about the fact that since I decided not to go to WalMart and buy supplies I will probley starve to death too. Okay maybe I'm exaggerating a little bit but mom if you want to call me that's cool, Cause I'm scared.

School

Today was my last first day of school. Maybe one day agian I'll have another if i decide to get my master's but for now it was my last first day and it was kind of bittersweet. Though it will be nice to get out of school in December its kinda scary to be joining the real world.

trip home

One of the reasons that I have been lagging on my posts is cause I just recently went home for a little R and R. But we did get to spend one day in NYC, the best city in the world! My oh my how I love NYC! We had a good time their. We went to Central Park and relaxed then it was off to FAO which has tottally revamped itself since the last time i'd seen it. It looked pretty damn sweet! Danny got to play with the monkeys their, while I jumped around on the keyboard.
Then we got to do something I have been wanting to do every time I go to New York, go see a play we wanted to see this play........
But since you can't see it for the next 5 years we went and saw another play i have been wanting to see.

And Let me tell you.. it was awesome... I sang and laughed and bounced in my seat like a little kid. I love love love the theatre.

Well After that it was time to go home so we posed for one more pic.......

And said good night to NYC.

Progression of Hair

Sorry it's been awhile since I've written. Nothing has really been going on well that is until tonight.
It all started out of boredom, Danny's hair has become way to long... Definitely in desperate need of a cut. Well since he's graduated college and needs a real job, we decided to give it a good whacking, or should I say Danny decided I just couldn't bear the thought of his long long locks being gone. After all we've been dating and its all I have ever known!
So away he went cutting away his gorgeous thick and curly hair.









Well he cut and cut, then I wanted to take a turn so I started cutting. Man it was a lot of hair! Pretty Gross huh! Ya I thought so too. Well since I was cutting I decided I would have fun with it so I made Danny's head into a mullet. You know Business in the front and a party in the back! Whoo hoo and Danny sure can rock the mullet look! Well then we decided we would go over to his cousins Ragan's band pratice and show him Danny's new look. Well Danny threw his cap on and the first thing Ragan did was bitch about Danny's hair and how long it was. Well Danny relectultly took off his cap and wholly hell was Rage surprised! Well after that little Detour we decided to go back to the house and finish what we had started. So we filled the sink up with the rest of his hair
Then after two hours we were finally done, and here is the final product: And Whalla it is short. I think he likes it, I know I do it is a nice change. But after five years of having long hair I think he is going to miss it. Maybe we'll have a little funeral for his lost locks tomorrow.
