If you call me a crybaby... I'm going to cry.

I remember losing my first tooth when I was 5, and my mother started crying.  I remember being confused and asking her if she was sad, and she told me no, that she was happy.  At the time that made no sense to me.

I've always been an emotional person.  In the third grade I would cry if my name got written on the chalk board.  In the sixth grade I cried out of embarrassment that I wore a skirt with hairy legs (that is a whole other post!!!).  I could go on and on and on, because I've cried my share of tears plus some.

I like to think I get my emotional side from my mother.

Many people show different emotions in different ways.  I wish I was one of them.  When I'm sad I cry, when I'm happy I cry, when I'm scared I cry, when my feelings are hurt I cry, when I'm pissed the %*#$ off I cry, shoot if I allowed you to tickle me I would pee my pants... and cry.

So the next time you see me crying, I might be happy to see you or I could just be pissed off at you, you'll never know!!!

Please, feel free to abuse your tomatoes!!

Since I started my blog, the most popular question I've been getting is "How does Taco Bell treat their tomatoes badly?"  Well the truth is, I don't REALLY believe they maliciously harm their produce.  My issues with them and just about every other fast food facility is much more financial then anything.

I'm going to tell you a little story...

Monday after noon, Lori decided to go to Taco Bell for lunch, when she gets there she orders a soft taco supreme.  "That will be $1.59" says the cashier.  Lori pays, gets her soft taco, and goes home.  Then Pam walks into Taco Bell and orders a soft taco supreme without tomatoes.  "That will be $1.59" says the cashier.  Pam pays, gets her soft taco, and goes home. Then Jennifer walks into Taco Bell and orders a soft taco supreme with extra tomatoes.  "That will be $1.79" says the cashier.  Jennifer pays, gets her soft taco, and goes home.

Do you see what happened there?  Jennifer had to pay for extra tomatoes, 20 cents more, but did Pam save 20 cent for not getting tomatoes?   Noooooo, she did not!!!

And this my friends is what keeps me awake at night!!!!

I have spiders living in my ear!

Do you know that feeling when you wake up and your ear is a little sore?  How about when you wake up and it feels like someone is stabbing you with a freshly sharpen pencil?

I can only image that a sane person thinks "Hmmmmm I'm getting an ear infection".  Unfortunately, I am not that person.  I'm the person who wakes up and thinks "OH MY GOD a spider must have crawled into my ear cannel and is now setting up camp, getting ready to start her family IN MY HEAD!!!!!

These are the kind of thoughts I have all the time...  Ok they aren't always about spiders, sometimes I think about the ethical treatment of tomatoes at Taco Bell, and SOOOOO many other things.
