Random Musings

I love music.  I spend hours looking up videos on YouTube.  I check out nearly unheard of bands, gush over my crush bands, turn up the volume on my laptop and sing outloud.  I’d rather have my ipod plugged into my stereo, than have the tv on.    I just can’t get enough.

Recently, a friend introduced me to Falling Up.  They are amazing!  So, in my quest to find more Falling Up, I’ve discovered that they are a Christian band!  *thud*  Now, I have a hard time admitting that I’m enjoying this Christian rock, but alas…I LOVE IT!   So, here’s some awesome Falling Up music!  Enjoy!

but I’ve moved on.  I’d like to thank you for the years of punk obsessed lust I’ve had for you.   You and your gorgeous wife have filled my dreams with the best, uhm, well…the best I can imagine.

However, due to your lack of touring and releasing new albums, I’ve had to move on to someone a little more active.  Don’t get me wrong.  I still absolutely adore you and Green Day, but I’ve been waiting for years for you to come to a city near me, and checking your website daily really leaves me disappointed.   Maybe someday, my love for you will again be rekindled, but until then, I have decided to stalk Matt Shadows of Avenged Sevenfold.   I’ve been actively stalking him (or at least A7X’s YouTube videos) online for 2 months now, and I still can’t get enough of him.  In fact, I’ve traded in my Green Day tee for an Avenged Sevenfold hoodie.  Please forgive me, Billy, but he is irresistable.

You can leave me comment after comment after comment.  I really enjoy the ads to make my penis bigger…even though I don’t have one.  And my sex life?  Thanks for trying to make it better, but that’s really none of your damn business either.  Oh, and if I win one more lottery, I’m gonna pass up Bill Gates’s bank account!

By the way…you’re comments aren’t going to get through. At all.  So give up. **kiss kiss**

Please forgive the crudeness of the title, but you have to admit…it did get your attention, right?

So, I’m gonna tell you a story or two, and I’m starting with the ‘ring’ story.

A few weeks ago, Banana came home from school and kept fiddling in her hoodie pocket.  Being curious, I made her empty out her pocket and out came every single ring I own.  And, I own quite a few.  So, I drilled her and found out that she took them out of my jewelry box and to school with her.  I look through the rings and notice that my Mother’s ring is missing.  It’s a beautiful ring with all the kids birthstones and names engraved in it.  So, I quiz her.  She gave the ring to a little girl with a broken arm.  Sigh.  My kids are so thoughtful.  So, the entire next week is spent conversing with the school receptionist, and almost a week after my ring goes missing…..I get it back.  Thank goodness.

Now, I’ve told my children repeatedly that I don’t want them to bring stuff to school, and I don’t want them to bring toys from friends HOME from school.  Why they won’t listen is beyond me.

About 2 weeks after the ring incident, Neener is sitting on the couch next to me playing weith something.  It’s purple and about 5 inches long, and squishy.  She tries to hide it from me, but I’ma cunning and tricky mom and get it away.  I examine it.  It’s cylindrical in shape, has a hole going through the middle and freaking LIPS on one end.  Yes, it’s a pocket pussy.  I immediately freak out and demand that my poor babies go and scrub and scrub and scrub thier hands, but what do you tell a 5 yr old?   They explained that they got it from their little friend V, and you put your fingers in and they get stuck.  **cry**.

So, it goes into a plastic baggy and I scrub and scrub and scrub my hands again.   And the following Monday, I take it to the receptionist.  I had to explain what it was to her.  Ugh.  Nice.

If my kids bring anything else home from school, I just may lock myself in a closet.

My phone is seriously ringing off the hook.   Most of the calls consist of “non-partisan committees” whom are asking me to vote for one or the other. **rolling eyes here**.  Why insist that you are ‘non-partisan’ and then ask me give my support to McCain?  I just don’t get it.

And by the way, don’t ask who I’m going to vote for because it’s my right to vote for whoever I damn well want to vote for.  And it certainly is NOT any of YOUR business, because dear non-partisan committee member on the other end of the phone, I don’t even know who you are.  Oh, and if I do decide to tell you that I’m voting for myself, don’t insist that I can’t do that.  Because well, it’s a free country, and that means I can vote for myself if I want to vote for myself.    Oh yeah, and when I tell you I’m voting, then hang up….DO NOT call back and ask who I’m voting for.  I hung up for a reason.

I seriously can NOT wait until tomorrow (Halloween).  The husband and I are dressing up as ‘punk rockers’ and I’ve been having so much fun getting our costumes together.

For my costume, I bought a denim mini skirt, cut the bottom off of it to make it shorter and frayed the bottom.  I also got myself a small, black, Miami Ink shirt with skulls on it, and fishnet stockings.  I’m also wearing ‘almost’ knee high black boots and spraying my hair red.   I tried the costume on and I seriously look HOT.   I LOVE the punk look and I would honestly dress like that on a daily basis, if I didn’t live in such a conservative community and was sure that my boss wouldnt’ have a fit.

For my hubby’s costume, I bought him a black Aerosmith tee, a black button down tee with red flames on it, took a pair of his old jeans, ripped them up and frayed them, and to top everything off, I went to a hardware store and bought chain link!  I made him 2 different necklaces out of it, and hung a chain from a front beltloop to a back one.    I’m going to eye liner him up and spike his hair.

Oh yeah…and to top off my costume, I got some new ink!  Something I’ve wanted for a long time, the flower off of Green Day’s Kerplunk album, with the word LOVE over it and HATE underneath it.  It’s perfect.  It’s me.

My friend over at Kiss Your Sassafrass has asked to see the new ‘me’.  So, to Lola Starr, here I am!

Yeah, I know.  Here I was all excited to start this blog, and now I haven’t blogged in weeks.   So, what’s new?  Not a whole helluva lot.  I was all ready to start college online, but that’s been moved back to December 1st.

I chopped my hair off, and dyed it purple/blue.  It’s cute.  It’s me, probably more ‘me’ than my hair has ever been.   And honestly, that’s really about it.  My life is pretty boring as of late, but I think I’ll count myself lucky for that
