Increasingly More Awake and Aware Every Day
It really freaks me out, how badly we are conditioned to treat our bodies. How badly we’ve been mislead when it comes to our very lives. I’ve been increasingly pursuing more knowledge in terms of the FDA and my health. Resisting my rising panic and not becoming overwhelmed becomes more and more of a challenge, especially since I still have at least 12 days to even begin making a true effort, but I’ve been trying to distract myself from this through positive thinking as well as planning.
-What am I going to eliminate entirely?
-Where am I going to shop?
-How much am I going to rely on market, and how much am I going to rely on home grown goods?
-What’s safe and what isn’t?
-Am I going to give up what I’m used to entirely, or replace it with similar but healthy and home made alternatives? AKA What’s worth making myself and what’s better left behind?
All of this are thoughts I am entertaining, until it comes time to act on them and then, I am just going to start. I’ve learned that the more I plan, the more I become discouraged when I either don’t follow through with a part of the plan or if I find a hole in the plan. But I know ways to jump start this radical body and mind makeover I so desperately need.
-Compile a list of Farmers Markets, along with the goods they offer (including raw milk)
-Research growing seasons, as well as companion crop
-Network, spread the word, and start a movement.
I love that both my boyfriend and I are passionate and motivated to do this, because it will keep both of us from getting discouraged (especially since we’re usually on the opposite foot 90 percent of the time) and, thus, increase the chances of success.
However, I feel like it would be even more awesome if our friends, neighbors, and family got involved too. I mean, his mom has a garden and her husband makes his own wine, so they already have their foot in the water! Plus, that opens up the opportunity for trade. Let’s face it, as much as my boyfriend would love to turn every square inch of our yard into a garden, that’s unlikely and I’m pretty sure our landlord would not be game for it. There will be things we will not be able to grow. That’s where fellow growers come in to play.
I have a feeling I’m just plain too excited about feeling good and healthy to get discouraged, or preoccupied. Wish me luck!! Any advice would be great, and I’m sure I’ll post of our journey :)

Your… Arms.
I’m so happy… Happy in your arms. And I’m so heavy… Heavy in your arms.
The Hum of The Highway
From the passenger side of my jeep, the lull of oncoming headlights and outgoing brakelights is rocking my eye lids to sleep.

I Don’t Get It
Lemme just say some things right quick, mmm-kay? I will start off by saying that I recognize the issue behind the way sites like Google, Facebook, etc. go about the user’s privacy. I, however, do not understand why people who have nothing to worry about are outraged.
In reality, these sites are impressively advanced in their adaptation to their users and said users preferences. Isn’t that exactly what we want? A site that knows us? Can change with us? Adapts to us?
The magic of humans is how adaptable they are. If you follow the Psychology of trauma enough, as well as the trends in happiness, then you will know that very few things effect a person for long. We adapt. Why are normal people pissed that these sites are doing this?
Photo Idea
Gather people of all ages to dress in time-influenced outfits of a wide variation to gather at a cemetery and then arrange with tombstones. Living dead.
Wedding Idea
Choose an area that makes for a good backdrop for group photos, maybe even two, when you scope the place of the wedding. Then have one photographer gather people for group photos. A good spot would be near a high traffic area, where people may flock together.
“I wish you were here.” “Oh yeah? I don’t.”
To Charlie
My muse. Every picture I take, of anything, is secretly just for you. :)
On Track.
I know what I want and need right now. It may not be what I want and need forever, or it may become that. But I’m on track.
Twilight Blues
You are the rainfall and you are the thunder.
You are the stream and the rocks the water flows over.
You are my moon.
The light within my doom.
The comfort of my apartment’s rooms.
My tomb.
The creature of the black lagoon.
The thrill of a deadly swoon.
My Muse.
And I can’t stop thinking of you.
Natural Disasters Bring Writers To Life
Just curled up among the warm, soft glow of candle light diffused by the release of demons. Peacefully flowing into the dark as the world that surrounds falls apart- in sync with the shattering of my heart.
Tragic Art.
At home inside my leather bound love, accompanied by the delicate, relentless destruction above.
I may laugh when other couples argue and scrabble over pointless, easily avoidable things but that does not mean I want to be them. I laugh because I’m above them. I know how to explain myself well and I’m understanding as hell, and there’s no reason for me to subject myself to stress because someone doesn’t explain themselves well due to a complete lack of understanding. And a disregard to its importance.
And once the anger and hurt fade, only guilt lies in place.
Guilt and “whys”?
Only those who understand complexity can communicate simplistically.
