Pretty In Pink... Perfect In Paisley!

My days have all run together... Whats the day? Whats the date?  I am starved... famished! What day is it? Oh that's right its Sunday, February 19... roughly 8:45 A.M. Guess its kind of early for meat and potatoes isn't it? Meat and potatoes the substance that nourishes the soul, soothes the average man and puts fuel in a persons body. Its what warms the inners. Right? Funny how a person will deprive them self for what is needed to feed the mind, the body and the spirit. The meat and potatoes, the meaning probably has more to do with what actually makes a person feel fulfilled then the overall product of such. You know that satisfying feeling of contentment. I find it ironic how a person will deplete oneself and starve them self for what is needed... in life, in a job, in their relationship with self and or with another not feeding them self what they truly need to survive...happily and healthy! Ever After!!! Crumbs... a trail, a morsel, a nibble of something that never fil...

It is always this first sentence I get stuck with… The let’s grip you from the very beginning, sink your teeth in opening and saddle on up statement because I have something to say!

I am a firm believer we are products of our environment and although we get to pick and choose the better parts of our growing up and learning years, as adults, we still become what we have seen and what we have not seen, we over compensate and make up for! (Sometimes in the oddest sense) They say every girl looks for a man like their father, as to every man looks for a woman like their mother. (Respectable and hopefully one that cooks.) I wish… I could say this wasn’t true.  (This is where...

You know how a song can get stuck in your brain? No matter how many times you sing it or listen to it... it just seems to linger? Well you got it! I have Laura Branigan ringing loud and clear in mine this morning! " I need a hero   I'm holding out for a hero till the end of the night he's gotta be strong and he's gotta be fast and gotta be fresh from the fight I need a hero I'm holding out for a hero till the morning light He's gotta be sure and he's gotta be soon  And he's gotta be larger than life" I guess it is not a bad song to have stuck in your head...it's better than Yellow Submarine! Right?  I am not surprised at how this song has lingered... I randomly made a joke the other day stating "I need a Hero" and apparently the music God's decided to have some fun with my sense of sarcasm. It has though made me stop and think. Do I really need a hero? Is that what I am looking for? Holding out f...
