Love Poems

As we step form across the room
Starting to ponder what we've been going through
What does my kiss mean to you?
Are we just friends, or is this more to you
But if we label this, just picture what we might lose, that unexpected kiss the whole feeling
that brought me to you

Meanwhile my feelings grow

Groooowwww
But if we label this just picture what we might lose
That unexpected kiss that whole feeling that brought me to you

Why rush, why choose, why risk this thing, and ruin me and you

I want to love him and keep the friend, I want to be near you and not pretend
But if we label this just picture what we might lose
That unexpected kiss the whole feeling that brought me to you

The whole thing has got me searchin....

Check out my new blog

I decided to develop a new blog in which to showcase my fetish for taking pictures of food. I am a self-professed foodie and I like taking pictures of my food. So?

Pep got a tattoo...

I am soon to be 47 uh...don't tell anyone...everyone thinks that I'm just pushing 40. So what do women pushing 40 do? They go out and get tatted! Getting tattoos, buying expensive red sports cars can be signs of a midlife crisis. I won't deny that it is probably why I decided to go out to get one. It was on the very day that I dropped my daughter off to college. I remember driving home and thinking; now what will you do with the rest of your life? You have raised your children...HEY! Let's get a tattoo!!!

It wasn't that spur of the moment. I had done research on it weeks before. I knew the shop I wanted to go to, and I knew that I just wanted a cute little ying yang symbol on my inner wrist. No biggie...so how did I end up with this???

I love it! But I wasn't really thinking of doing anything quite that big. Plus it f***ing hurt! AND people are lying if they tell you it doesn't. Anyways, the tattoo parlor didn't have any simple ying yang symbols--they had wings or skulls. I would have had to pull one off the internet so I decided that if I was going to do that, I might as well go for the kokopelli or a gecko (I'm happy I chose the kokopelli).

Yep...got a mid-life crisis tat.





Where is the next chapter of Adaptation?

Due to life interfering with art, I have had to push the posts of Adaptation to just once a week. Mondays will be the only posting--but I am shooting for more MEATIER chapters. Thanks guys.

Stephen King to release pt 2 to The Shining

Re-blogged from Shortlist.com (click to link)

Release date set for King's Shining sequel

It's been a long time coming but Stephen King's highly anticipated sequel to The Shining is set to hit bookstores on September 24th 2013.
Titled Doctor Sleep, it follows Danny Torrance who survived the wrath of both his father and the malevolent Overlook hotel. He'll now be a middle-aged man but will still possess his special powers.
In the new book, he meets a young girl who he must save from a group of murderous paranormals, who live off the "shining" that special children produce as they are slowly tortured to death. He'll be aided by a prescient cat.
It's billed as "an epic war between good and evil" and "a gory, glorious story that will thrill the millions of hyper-devoted readers of The Shining". Sounds pretty good to us.

Happy 18th Birthday to my daughter

My Baby girl turned 18 on September 17th. But even before that I, saw her off to college. It was bittersweet. I certainly looked forward to a time when I would only have myself to consider on a day to day basis; no dinner to purchase, or to cook for anyone but myself. House stays neat (theoretically) and no teenage attitudes.

Oh sure, people said I'd be lonely but that wasn't the problem. I don't miss her because of loneliness (which I have yet to encounter), but because she and I are so much alike that being around her is good company. I made this mini movie to share my feelings about it. The music is John Mayer's Stop This Train. 

Funny is that as my daughter's father and I took her to college, that song played on my headset and even though I promised myself that I would not get emotional I started crying. I knew this song had to be the backdrop to the movie. Then, just this weekend her grandpa drove her home to spend the weekend here for her birthday and that song began playing as she walked through the door! I am positive that the music is just right. :)

And yeah...I watched this and cried again.
