I think I want to be a Hot Head Rock Chick....I wish I could pull it off....

middle school wall inspiration...

I am just trying to wrap my head around it...

What if you were really good yesterday...will it be a hard day today...because you have to be super good today?

or if you were really bad will it be easier day because you just have to be not as bad.

If you were not so bad do you just have to strive for not so good? or is not so bad the same as... not so good? Or is not so bad better than not so good?

is better that same as good? Would it be better if the sign said "Be gooder than you were yesterday"...So you start with being good?

Vivian: "Man, this baby must corner like it's on rails."

Edward: "Beg your pardon."

Vivian: "Doesn't blow your mind this is only, 4 cylinders!"

Edward: "You know about cars, where did that come from?"

Vivian: "Road and Track. The boys back home I grew up with they were really into American Heavy Metal, Mustangs, Corvettes. They bought them cheap and fixed them up, I paid attention. So how is it that you know so little about cars."

Edward:"My first car was a Limosine."

The Dark Knight Wayne Tech Mega Cape:


Wayne Tech Mega Cape ($39.99, for ages 5 years and older) - The premiere role-playing piece from this year's Dark Knight collection is a cape that, with the pull of a string, opens into a 5-foot pair of wings. Pulling a pair of strings then ratchets the cape back into its original form. Owners also get a mask to help feel more like Batman. Parents should know the average 5-year-old will have difficulty keeping the heavy cape harness on. Junior becomes a hunched-over, old-man Batman after about five minutes.

Portland 2008 Zombie Walk.....last weekend? Dang it!!!! Shoot!!!


DO you see her? The cutest Zombie? I want that haircut....

Dude......
There were some rules:

Zombie Walk Rules

1. Use the "haunted house" rule in that you are not to touch anyone.

2. Do not attempt to scare anyone who is not a willing participant. If anyone is freaking out, turn and shamble in the opposite direction. Avoid confrontations!

3. Stay on the sidewalk unless crossing the street. When crossing, it's OK to "break character" and cross quickly. Think fast "New Dawn of the Dead" zombies verses the slower "Old Dawn of the Dead" zombies when crossing the street. Blocking traffic is a crime and anyone doing so could be arrested.

4. No drugs. None. Forget it.

5. No alcohol outside the bars. This will get you a nice fine.

6. No littering, destruction of property, or any other illegal activity. Pretend downtown is your own neighborhood and show the utmost respect. This is something we would like to do every year and we don't want to ruin it. Remember, the media will be watching us (along with the Portland Police) and this event could get world wide news coverage. Let's put on a good show.

On my list before I die: I want to be an extra in a zombie movie.....

I found this really pretty picture by google-ing "Freebird." I got it for my daughter to remind her to be a "Freebird." She is experiencing a bad clique...where there shouldn't be one. We discussed being a "Freebird" and being independent. Being outside the clique is best (because you don't want to be like them) and making good friends with nice people is important...thought still developing

I wanted to get it tattooed on my back (minus the orange background)...because I want to be reminded to be a "Freebird" too.. (there are even cliques when you're 40!)...but my husband reminded me that it wouldn't be a good idea.....So I won't be doing that....So I bought the picture instead and will be framing it...
