If I Had My Life To Live Over

-by Erma Bombeck-

(written after she found out she was dying from cancer).





I would have gone to bed when I was sick instead of pretending the earth would go into a holding pattern if I weren't there for the day.



I would have burned the pink candle sculpted like a rose before it melted in storage.



I would have talked less and listened more.



I would have invited friends over to dinner even if the carpet was stained, or the sofa faded.



I would have eaten the popcorn in the 'good' living room and worried much less about the dirt when someone wanted to light a fire in the fireplace.



I would have taken the time to listen to my grandfather ramble about his youth.



I would have shared more of the responsibility carried by my husband.



I would never have insisted the car windows be rolled up on a summer day because my hair had just been teased and sprayed.



I would have sat on the lawn with my grass stains.



I would have cried and laughed less while watching television and more while watching life.



I would never have bought anything just because it was practical, wouldn't show soil, or was guaranteed to last a lifetime.



Instead of wishing away nine months of pregnancy, I'd have cherished every moment and realized that the wonderment growing inside me was the only chance in life to assist God in a miracle.



When my kids kissed me impetuously, I would never have said, "Later. Now go get washed up for dinner." There would have been more "I love you's." More "I'm sorry's."



But mostly, given another shot at life, I would seize every minute...look at it and really see it .. live it and never give it back. Stop sweating the small stuff.



Don't worry about who doesn't like you, who has more, or who's doing what.



Instead, let's cherish the relationships we have with those who do love us.



Let's think about what we are blessed with. And what we are doing each day to promote ourselves mentally, physically, emotionally. I hope you all have a wonderful day.

Age 8: She looks at herself and sees Cinderella.

Age 20: She looks at herself and sees "too fat/too thin, too short/too tall, too straight/too curly"- but decides she's going out anyway.



Age 30: She looks at herself and sees "too fat/too thin, too short/too tall, too straight/too curly" - but decides she doesn't have time to fix it, so she's going out anyway.



Age 40: She looks at herself and sees "clean" and goes out anyway.



Age 50: She looks at herself and sees "I am" and goes wherever she wants to go.



Age 60: She looks at herself and reminds herself of all the people who can't even see themselves in the mirror anymore. Goes out and conquers the world.



Age 70: She looks at herself &sees wisdom, laughter and ability, goes out and enjoys life.



Age 80: Doesn't bother to look. Just puts on a purple hat and goes out to have fun with the world.

Dami's Rant ~ Hair ~

Well this is just a little rant, nothing too much, but here’s a bit of advice .. Never dye your hair permanent black, unless you intend to leave it in for a long time.



In, oh I think it was about December of 2003 I decided to dye my hair black, no biggie I do that every now and again. Usually I just let it grow and wear out. But for some reason, though I know not why, I got a bit impatient in the beginning of 2004 and in end of March I went to one of those vocational beauty schools, because I couldn’t afford the $200 an actual beauty salon wanted to charge me to re color my hair because of the length. I swear they charge a whole body part for every inch you have below your shoulder blades, being as mine went down to my ass, well you can imagine why they wanted to charge me $200; for 2 bleaching kits that costs them at the most $10 a piece, and 2 color kits which again at the most are about $10 a piece from their wholesaler. We’re talking $40 for the solution and I can see paying like $10 and hour for their time, IE. About 4 maybe five hours time, total being less then $100, and here they wanted to charge me $200. Yes I agree a person should be paid for their talents, but for cryin out loud, why must everyone charge such extreme amounts for everything??? Anyway’s, I went to the vo-tech school and paid $30 and 6 hours, to have them bleach out the black and re-place my original color. Because my hair is naturally red, when you bleach out a persons hair it tends to become VERY ORANGE, I am not about to walk around with Ronald McDonald colored hair .. The only problem with having your hair bleached, is that it tends to become very dry and split ended. Well by July I got tired of my hair being so dry and brittle and breaking, plus I was in the mood for a change, so I decided to cut it ALL off .. Don’t get me wrong, I loved it and kept it that way for all these months now. But now I have decided that I want to let it grow back out. It will take me a good 5 years for it to grow the length it once was, but that I can deal with. It’s just this next year that is going to drive me crazy, it will me to long to do anything with, and too short to really style decently.



Moral of the story here: Coloring your hair is fine, but if you get a hair up your ass (no pun intended) and think you want it short, you better make damn sure it’s what you want, and you’re not gonna change your mind a few months down the road, and to be ready to deal with having crappy hair for a while when you decided to let it grow back out

I've always believed in being myself, not trying to be what someone wanted me to be. Although along the years I know I've slipped into trying to fit into a mold of what someone else expected me to be, but it isn't long before I realize what is happening to me, and I begin the upward battle of being myself. When I heard this new song by Audioslave it just struck a strong nerve in me.





~ Be Yourself ~



Someone falls to pieces sleeping all alone someone kills the pain

Spinning in the silence who finally drifts away

Someone gets excited in a chapel yard and catches a bouquet

Another lays a dozen white roses on a grave

And to be yourself is all that you can do

to be yourself is all that you can do

Someone finds salvation in everyone, another only pain

Someone tries to hide themselves down inside himself he prays

Someone swears his true love to the end of time another runs away

Separate or untied healthy or insane

And to be yourself is all that you can do (all that you can do)

to be yourself is all that you can do (all that you can do)

And to be yourself is all that you can do (all that you can do)

to be yourself is all that you can do (all that you can do)

And to be yourself is all that you can do (all that you can do)

to be yourself is all that you can do (all that you can do)

To be yourself is all that you can dooooooo

Even when you’ve paid enough been put upon been held up

If every single memory of good or bad traces of love

Don’t loose any sleep tonight, I’m sure everything will end up alright

Even in love

But to be yourself is all that you can do

to be yourself is all that you can do

Females 'more genetically varied' = Women Rock!!! LOL
01:49 Mar 25 2005
Times Read: 844

Females are genetically more varied than males, an analysis of the X

chromosome by a large team of scientist has revealed in Nature

magazine. They found that female mammals, who possess two copies of

the X chromosome, express more genes than males, who only have one X

and a Y chromosome.



They also said that females were protected from many diseases because

of their double dose of the X chromosome. The X chromosome is one of

24 distinct chromosomes found in human cells and is much larger than

the relatively weak Y, containing 1,098 genes to the Y's 78.



This means that female mammals contain over 1,000 more genes than

males. To compensate for this, the female body switches off one X

chromosome randomly in each cell, thus evening up protein production

between the sexes. (GES/WNWCCB/TN)

A Little Navajo Wisdom

Sally was driving home from one of her business trips in Northern Arizona, when she saw an elderly Navajo woman walking on the side of the road. As the trip was a long and quiet one, she stopped the car and asked the Navajo woman if she would like a ride. With a silent nod of thanks, the woman got into the car. Resuming the journey, Sally tried in vain to make a bit of small talk with the Navajo woman. The old woman just sat silently, looking intently at everything she saw, studying every little detail, until she noticed a brown bag on the seat next to Sally. "What's in the bag?" asked the old woman. Sally looked down at the brown bag and said, "It's a bottle of wine. I got it for my husband." The Navajo woman was silent for another moment or two. Then speaking with the quiet wisdom of an elder, she said, "Good trade."

Why is the Chicago River green?

I often wondered what was the reason that here in Chicago, they dye the Chicago River green every St. Patrick's Day. So I went on a little fact finding jaunt ... here are soem St. Patrick's Day fact's/myth's as reported by The National Geographic website ...



St. Patrick's Day Fast Facts: Beyond the Blarney

Sean Markey

National Geographic News

March 15, 2005

On St. Patrick's Day this Thursday, some revelers will raise a pint of stout and wish their companions "Slainté!"—the Irish word, pronounced SLAN-cha, for "health."

The toast may brim with scientific truth. At a meeting of the American Heart Association in Orlando, Florida, two years ago, researchers reported that Guinness may be as effective as daily aspirin in reducing the blood clots that cause heart attacks. (The benefit derives from antioxidants, which the researchers said reduce cholesterol deposits on arterial walls. The compounds are found in dark Irish stouts but not their paler cousins.)

In the spirit of the holiday, National Geographic News rustled up other facts related to St. Patrick's Day festivities. Take heart—we skipped the blarney.

• St. Patrick's Day marks the Roman Catholic feast day for Ireland's patron saint, who died in the 5th century. St. Patrick (Patricius in Latin) was not born in Ireland, but in Britain.

• Irish brigands kidnapped St. Patrick at 16 and brought him to Ireland. He was sold as a slave in the county of Antrim and served in bondage for six years until he escaped to Gaul, in present-day France. He later returned to his parents' home in Britain, where he had a vision that he would preach to the Irish. After 14 years of study, Patrick returned to Ireland, where he built churches and spread the Christian faith for some 30 years.

• Many myths surround St. Patrick. One of the best known—and most inaccurate—is that Patrick drove all the snakes from Ireland into the Irish Sea, where the serpents drowned. (Some still say that is why the sea is so rough.)

But snakes have never been native to the Emerald Isle. The serpents were likely a metaphor for druidic religions, which steadily disappeared from Ireland in the centuries after St. Patrick planted the seeds of Christianity on the island.

• In the United States, it's customary to wear green on St. Patrick's Day. But in Ireland the color was long considered to be unlucky, says Bridget Haggerty, author of The Traditional Irish Wedding and the Irish Culture and Customs Web site.

As Haggerty explains, Irish folklore holds that green is the favorite color of the Good People (the proper name for faeries). They are likely to steal people, especially children, who wear too much of the color.

• Today New York's St. Patrick's Day parade is the longest running civilian parade in the world. This year nearly three million spectators are expected to watch the spectacle and some 150,000 participants plan to march.

• Dublin's St. Patrick's Day parade is little more than 75 years old. This year festival organizers will launch 15,000 pounds (7 metric tons) of fireworks to cap their celebration, which is expected to draw 400,000 spectators.

• By law, pubs in Ireland were closed on St. Patrick's Day, a national religious holiday, as recently as the 1970s.

• According to the U.S. Census Bureau, 34 million United States residents claim Irish ancestry, or nearly ten times the entire population of Ireland today, which stands at 3.9 million. Among U.S. ethnic groups, the number of Irish-Americans in the U.S. is second only to the number of German-Americans.

• Since 1820, 4.8 million Irish have legally immigrated to the United States, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. The agency reports that only four countries—Germany, Italy, Mexico, and the United Kingdom—have sent more native-born residents to become naturalized U.S. citizens.

• Chicago is famous for dyeing the Chicago River green on St. Patrick's Day. The tradition began in 1962, when a pipe fitters union—with the permission of the mayor—poured a hundred pounds (45 kilograms) of green vegetable dye into the river. (On the job, the workers often use colored dyes to track illegal sewage dumping.) Today only 40 pounds (18 kilograms) of dye are used, enough to turn the river green for several hours.

According to the Friends of the Chicago River, a local environmental group, more people are likely to view the Chicago River on St. Patrick's Day than on any other day.

• Guinness stout, first brewed by Arthur Guinness in Dublin, Ireland, in 1759, has become synonymous with Ireland and Irish bars. According to the company's Web site, 1,883,200,000 (that's 1.9 billion) pints of Guinness are consumed around the world every year.

• Robert Louis Stevenson, the 19th-century Scottish author of Kidnapped, Treasure Island, and other novels, brought a store of Guinness with him during a trip to Samoa in the South Pacific, according to the Guinness Web site.

• Ireland is about 300 miles (480 kilometers) long and 200 miles (320 kilometers) wide. Those facts, along with other features, led Swedish geographer Ulf Erlingsson to recently conclude that the Atlantic Ocean island is the same one identified by ancient Greek philosopher Plato as Atlantis in his famous dialogues Timaeus and Critias.

Dami's Rant - No Holds Barred
23:58 Mar 11 2005
Times Read: 949

If you are here, then that means one thing:



My journal is on your list and you just checked to see what I am ranting about or what I have to talk about today ...



Well, quite simply put, I am truly sick and tired of listening to people say ..



So and so bombed my profile .. I'm gonna go bomb them ..



Ok ya know what ... GROW THE FUCK UP!!!



So someone decides that for some reason or another they don't like you're profile, or maybe they don't like you. By going through and bombing their profile, do you think that's gonna make them like you any better??? No they are gonna put some ass kissy message and give you the 10 you WANT versus what ever it is they feel you deserve. The ratings are a persons OPINNION not some live or die breath of life.



I'm truly sorry and I know that I have probably just pissed off many people and more then likely lost a few friends. Well if that's the case, then I guess they weren't friends really, which that breaks my heart.



I know they/you have worked long hard hours on your profiles. Trying to convey to people who you are, and what you enjoy. As I have done the same. It is who I AM not who or what people THINK of me. Honestly, and I don't mean to offend anyone, but I truly do not care if someone doesn't like it or me, that is their business. If they don't care to take the time to get to know me, then it is their loss not mine.



But to run around and bomb someone’s profile just because you are mad at them, or you don't like them ... it's childish and petty. I never once bombed anyone's profile in words or rating. I gave what I FELT (me me me me) it deserved, not because this one didn't like them, and not because someone gave me a 1 or 2 or 3 or anything .. I may feel that my profile deserved more then a 5, but it is a persons purgative to give me a 1 so be it.



But for crying out loud, stop whining because some one rated you low. Ya know, people see the messages left and not only does it make the site look like it has a bunch of adults acting like children. But it also makes others want to bomb you, just because.



This is not directed at anyone in particular, so don't bother asking, it's for everyone ...



I had removed my profile, I did return it eventually, but it was to make a point, why the hell should it matter what you have in your profile? If you can't accept critisim for the work you do, why bother. It's become a popularity contest to too many people .. I dont' want to have the best profile, but there are others out there DEMANDING 10's from people and all they can do is whine about it. So go ahead change your rating, give me a 1 it's not going to hurt me, it's not going to make me hate you, it's not going to make me bomb you. If you really want to get to know me, then send me a message.

But I don't care if you don't like me or you're mad at me. There are more important things in life then someone giving me a 1 !!!!

How many people think that all these friggin ring tones are getting so out of hand????



Ok I sit at a job where i have to call people back on the phones. About 90% of the time I get answering machine's or stupid ass ring tones from cell phones. That when the begin to play the blast a hole in your friggin eardrum. Not to mention, that they sound like a triangle chime being played in a 55 gallon metal barrel drum. Then, what's worse is after you sit there for like 5 friggin minutes while the damn song plays all the way through; you get some idiot on the voice message trying to sound all ghetto coolieo like...



For example ... I've just listened to a ring tone that sounded like Styx, Mr. Roboto -- but in reallity was Madonna's, Like a Virgin.



Oh and then I'd have to say one of the most stupidest, ascenine, and utterly retarded ring tone by far would have to be Ludacris', SOOTHE!!!



If I'm forced to sit there and listen some jack ass with a deep voice trying to sweet talk me .....



I'd rather hear the late great Barry White charm me out of my pants.

Legalizing Hoe-ism

Well I just heard something pretty interesting when I came into the office this evening...



It seems that this morning on one of the local Chicago radio stations it was announced that our wonderful law makers either within the city limit's, or possibly through out the state; have decide to pass a law making it LEGAL for a hoe / hooker / prostitute to SUE her/ his Pimp for forcing her / him if the Pimp tries to prevent them from leaving the "Profession".



Ok, so now I ask you this .. if it is NOT legal to even BE a prostitute, then how is it that they will be allowed to sue their pimp?



Now if you ask me .. which I don't care if you are or you're not .. I personally DO NOT want the fuzzy purple leopard print fur coat and the matching velvet wide brimmed Fedora hat. Of course the gold plated teeth might fetch a pretty penny ...



Oh, and just so you all know, believe it or not I am trying to verify if this is true or not, the bill for a new law that is. I have no doubt about it being on the 'Loop' though ...

Some would say too many. Some would say I have no life, some would say I'm fu***n NUTs! Well let's see shall I answer those questions for you, so there is no longer any speculation????



Just exactly how much is to much? What is too much for one person may not be enough for another, but could be just right for the last. Gee kinda sounds reminiscent of Goldielock's and the Three Bear’s now doesn't it. ;^}



Hmm let's see *checking calendar* ... no life, no life, no life, no life, no life, no life, ... Wait, what's that? ... damn just a smudge of the ink, nope, no life.



Actually contrary to popular belief, I do have a life, I have a daughter. A father I am living with, who's house I clean and take care of, I do the cooking some of the time. I even have a job, although it is part time at the moment. But with everything I do, except for the drive time in-between, I can do and still chat with people. Yes even at work, like many others who do the same. But one must realize, I have moved back to my home town and 10 years have gone by. What few friends I did have are long gone. And my town has changed tremendously. What once was a safe place to walk around all hours of the night, well lets just say I'd rather face 10 vampires any day. It's just not safe. So I was invited to this site, and have made many, many new friends, some I wasn't even aware of. But my point is, I have a life, I just chose to live it here amongst the good people here.



Now as for the last, one need only read my posts, my messages, my profile, my portfolio and my journal to see the kind of person I am. I'll let you all figure that one out on your own. >;^}

I am a pretty nice person and I don't mean to piss off those of my "friends" who are gamers, everyone has their own thing. You all at least have intelligent conversation with me. Normally I will tolerate A LOT but damn ...



GGGGRRRRRRRRRRRRR



Oh and the next person that pisses in my Cheerio’s or oatmeal better have a damn good explanation. Or may have to take my double handed sword with a damage ratio of +8 and swing it in your direction with a hit/miss ratio of a -1 , and thrusting it deep into your heart doing 100+% of damage!!!!





GGGGRRRRRRRRRRRRR

"Not only is your profile awesome, you are one of the nicest most kind people I have ever met in my entire life. Your heart is so big and so deep. You are truley a incredible and I wish that you never change, for the world needs you, just as you are." Mr. Laven



I must say I was pretty blown away when I read this in my profile. I've often sat and tried to figure out "What is my purpose in this life?" With the crap I have been through, why were the doctor's allowed to revive me? I believe that there is a higher being that controls wither we live or die, so why was I allowed to live? I don't have a formal education past high school. I've never "self studied" anything really. I guess I'm one of those types of people that know a little bit about a lot of things. I've researched some things to learn more about it, but in no way do I consider myself a "professional" in anything. But I have noticed that in my life many, many people have sought out my advice, or have just felt a need to talk to me about their problems. Which I truly do not mind, I love talking to people. I just have this ability to feel or sense peoples feelings, so talking to people about what they are facing, or what their problems has never bothered me. Some find it taxing and get tired of it. I don’t claim to know anything other then what I have experienced in life, and from that I have only given advice based on that. I don’t claim to be right or wrong about anything. I’m a people watcher an observer of everything around me. So I guess if my only purpose in life is to talk to people and help them to see a different perspective of whatever they face, then I am more then happy to fulfill my duty, and do so without complaint. I want to thank anyone who I have spoken with in this life. Not only have I tried to share with you a different perspective, but from each of you I have found a purpose and meaning of my life to go on fighting the demons within my own mind and heart. I love you all :^*

Don't get me wrong, I love my dad to death, well most of the time. And I am eternally grateful that at my age he still lets me "come home" when shit happens and I have no where else to turn. But forgive me here and cover your ears ... I WISH HE WOULD BUTT THE FUCK OUT OF MY LIFE AND FINANCIAL AFFAIRS!!!!! >;^{



Financial reasons are not the reasons I had to move back home here from Georgia. He is the kind of man who thinks he knows everything and that his way is ALWAYS the only way to handle things. He's all the time nagging about "I have to do this, I have to do that, I need this, I need that...". He tells me I need to build my credit, I have to have a regular cell phone, I need to have a checking account, I have to pay this or that off. SO he insists and when I say this I mean it's too the point of him YELLING that I have to do these things so rather then listen to him yell and turn read an chance him having a heart attack, the man's on the verge of one at any point; I just say whatever and let him do it. He's always been a controlling person. My credit's shot to shit I know this already. Think too many people over emphasize credit anyways.



But anyway's, he doesn't stop to think that just maybe I don't feel I HAVE to have the same things in life that he or my sister or brothers HAVE to have. I never have, my thoughts are, if I want it badly enough, then I'll work for it, if I need it (but what do we really need in life but to eat, drink, and sleep under cover of a roof, and clothing) anything else to me are luxuries.



I had a perfectly good pre-pay cell phone, I always made sure there were minutes on it so my family could reach me, and it was there for emergencies. That's basically all I need one for. But no, that wasn't good enough, he insisted that I had to have a regular cell phone, so he has a phone added (when I'm not working) to his plan and expects me to pay the difference. Ok fine I'm willing to do that. But now I have yet another expense. Then he insists that I HAVE to pay everything off from when I lived in GA. Not month end disconnection bills, I'm talking about loans to which I WAS using to BUILD my credit. So he gets money orders and sends them to the places, then he complins that I have no credit *smack forehead* DUH!!! any hoo, this is something that he and I seem to go round and round about. There's not much in life that I feel I HAVE to HAVE. And it really pisses me off when he tries to take over my life and finances and throws up that my siblings and have this or that. Well good for them, they are status quote people, I am not. I'm content to have only what I need. I don't have to have the shiny new car, or all these extra things to show the kind of person I am. I'm me, plain and simple in my needs, but more complex in my thoughts, and only seek those that are the same. My sisters a yuppie, both of my brothers wives are into having to have certain things to show that they are in a certain finical "bracket". Why are people like that, I'll never understand it, why money and material things are so important to people .. I say this while thinking, if I didn't have my computer and internet, I'd go insane .. geesh that's stupid..... Ok, done ranting, go about your regularly scheduled business >;^**

The Wodden Bowl

You how you get the mass forward e-mails? Some are dumb, but some will really make you stop to think. Well I just received this one today, and it's one of the few that really did make me stop and think. Hopefully you will remember the tale of the Wooden Bowl.



A frail old man went to live with his son, daughter-in-law, and four-year old grandson. The old man's hands trembled, his eyesight was blurred, and his step faltered. The family ate together at the table. But the elderly grandfather's shaky hands and failing sight made eating difficult. Peas rolled off his spoon onto the floor. When he grasped the glass, milk spilled on the tablecloth.

The son and daughter-in-law became irritated with the mess. "We must do something about Grandfather," said the son. I've had enough of his spilled milk, noisy eating, and food on the floor. So the husband and wife set a small table in the corner. There, Grandfather ate alone while the rest of the family enjoyed dinner. Since Grandfather had broken a dish or two, his food was served in a wooden bowl. When the family glanced in Grandfather's direction, sometimes he had a tear in his eye as he sat alone. Still, the only words the couple had for him were sharp admonitions when he dropped a fork or spilled food. The four-year-old watched it all in silence. One evening before supper, the father noticed his son playing with wood scraps on the floor. He asked the child sweetly, "What are you making?" Just as sweetly, the boy responded, "Oh, I am making a little bowl for you and Mama to eat your food in when I grow up." The four-year-old smiled and went back to work. The words so struck the parents that they were speechless. Then tears started to stream down their cheeks. Though no word was spoken, both knew what must be done. That evening the husband took Grandfather's hand and gently led him back to the family table. For the remainder of his days he ate every meal with the family. And for some reason, neither husband nor wife seemed to care any longer when a fork was dropped, milk spilled, or the tablecloth soiled.



On a positive note, I've learned that, no matter what happens nor how bad it seems today, life does go on, and it will be better tomorrow.



I've learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way he/she handles three things: a rainy day, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights.



I've learned that, regardless of your relationship with your parents, you'll

miss them when they're gone from your life.



I've learned that making a "living" is not the same thing as making a "life."



I've learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance.



I've learned that you shouldn't go through life with a catcher's mitt on both hands. You need to be able to throw something back.



I've learned that if you pursue happiness, it will elude you. But, if you focus on your family, your friends, the needs of others, your work and doing the very best you can, happiness will find you.



I've learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I usually make the right decision.



I've learned that even when I have pains, I don't have to be one.



I've learned that every day, you should reach out and touch someone.



People love that human touch-holding hands, a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back.



I've learned that I still have a lot to learn.
