We will have to repent in this generation not merely for the hateful words and actions of the bad people but for the appalling silence of the good people. — “Letter from Birmingham Jail,” April 16, 1963

Respect your haters. They are the ones who think you are better than them. -Unknown

You don’t understand, no-one does. When a woman makes the choice to marry, to have children; in one way her life begins but in another way it stops. You build a life of details. You become a mother, a wife and you stop and stay steady so that your children can move. And when they leave they take your life of details with them. And then you’re expected move again only you don’t remember what moves you because no-one has asked in so long. Not even yourself. You never in your life think that love like this can happen to you. -Francesca, Bridges of Madison County

the one where i bore you all to death

30 September, 2008 /

I’m waiting for something so totally exciting to write before I hit, “Write Post”.
So far, i’ve got nothing.

My car got broken into when I went to the beach last weekend. I was just starting to feel better and I couldn’t be more excited about getting the hell out of the house. When the dumb-asses stole my wallet, they took other stupid things, like my ex-husband’s car keys.
You’re asking yourself, “Why does she have her ex-husband’s car keys?” I’ve been driving his truck for about 2 months since we got rid of our car that was about to fall asleep and go where all cars go when they go to la-la land.

The thing is, neither one of us have an extra set of keys. So now, I’m making his truck payment on a truck I can’t drive because it’s going to cost me 400 bucks to have it re-keyed. (Some lame chip in it that starts the car that is in the key…how lame is that?)

Also, I have no keys to my house or my mailbox.

Exciting things are not afoot in the Random and Odd house.

Other than that, I think I’m losing my mind. *shrug*
