Excuse me While I Unload

Posted on | November 20, 2009 | No Comments

The wine bottle,
green and wavy glass undulates
in stale light, empty
while the scent lingers,
falls to the floor and spins
as if some other force is playing with it,
looking for a kiss from anyone who wants to give it.
the wind is in competition
with a howling canine and neither seems
to be winning.
when did it become that my knees
creak when I stand? where was when I was
young?
thinking about tomorrow and writing invisible
words for the life I want to have and nothing
comes about.
excuse me while I piss again.
this obsession with age, ages me,
depresses me because I liked life
a lot better when Santa was real
sometimes those cackles from invisible witches that
stand naked in the cloaked trees
still frighten me and sometimes I still
cry when loneliness spits in my eyes.
twisters fall from the meteor shower
and another day goes by and I am none the
wiser maybe less wise
still the same old me.
The wind dies and the
wretched dog quits for awhile,
cigarette burns away
and when I wake up tomorrow

then what?

One Holiday Experience

Posted on | November 20, 2009 | No Comments

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Hiltons of Branson. All opinions are 100% mine.

Christmas is coming and instead of going crazy with expensive presents why not pool the money together and give the family a memory as opposed to stuff. There are many ways of doing this but if you are going to do it, then it will have to be a place where it snows. Because snow and Christmas go hand in hand. And what better place to visit is Branson, Missouri.

From now until December 23, 2009 both Hilton Promenade at Branson Landing and Hilton Branson Convention Center Hotel are offering incredible holiday getaways. At the Promenade for $329 a night enjoy food and entertainment, a treatment at a day spa, and a coupon book filled with discounts. If you have smaller kids then you should head on over to the Convention Center for story time with Mrs Claus. And for $189 a night you can have the Santa package where Santa delivers milk, cookies and of course presents.

Branson has a lot to offer for the whole family. Since it will be cold out you might want to check out some of the world class entertainment, catch a flick at the IMAX theater, Dino’s Christmas Extravaganza and much more. There is so much to do, you would want to come back to Branson for every season.

So why not check out Branson for a wholesome family vacation and be sure to stay at one of the Hilton Hotels.

Today

Posted on | November 18, 2009 | 1 Comment

Though the sky clung to the gray blanket and the sun never woke up this morning, it was a good day.  Once Sunshine went to school, I took a three hour nap. You would think I would be pretty perky except I am even more tired. My fingers don’t want to work because every other word is a misspelling and I have to go back and fix it.

Once I woke up from my nap, I made lasagne. And I am not talking the frozen lasagne either. Real home made lasgane. Okay I didn’t make the noodles or sauce but I did use regular boil noodles as opposed to the no cook noodles so that is saying something for me.  I used to hate being all domestic but today it was nice and relaxing to chop the onions and assmeble the lasagne. It was really good by the way, could have used more cheese.

The food was done when Sunshine came home from school. We ate then went out for a little bit then back home. I know this sounds like nothing exciting but it was just good to have a day of nothing and relaxing. Tomorrow, we plan on doing some Christmas shopping while  Sunshine is in school.

I don’t have to be at work until Friday night so I will have most of another day to relax and do the things I like. I am not promising anything but who knows I might feel like writing!

Posted on | November 18, 2009 | No Comments

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Hoover and Dirt Devil. All opinions are 100% mine.

People might think I am weird but if I were to get a Dirt Devil for Christmas, I would be one happy gal. Of course, this is coming from the same person who wanted a bread maker (don’t worry I got the toaster and the breadmaker). I know I am not the only who would get all happy with a new vacuum. Not only that this holiday season is predicted to be different because people will be buying practical gifts so a vacuum could be the perfect gift.

Blog_cover If this is where you find yourself you might want to check out the holiday deals dirtdevil.com is having. Here you can find the perfect gift for him, her, or the whole family. Not only that, why not check out the Dirt Devil Holiday Gift Guide. This is an in depth guide on how to save even more money by shopping online. This is a 12 page booklet in PDF format that you can find helpful tips and websites to get the best deals. I like the ease of the guide plus I learned about deal of the day websites, which I heard about but never visited. I think I might check them out to see if I can get something cheap for the boyfriend. Don’t forget to save the date for 12/17/09 for free shipping day!

Check it out today and make your holiday shopping easier and cheaper.

Posted on | November 17, 2009 | No Comments

Hey I am posting this on time tonight, I think something dropped on my head. Anyway I am happy to report that I made it to the top spot this week after a long dry spell of not making it all in the top selections. Maybe anger is a good thing in one respect and in another it is plain killing, figuratively speaking anyway.

For some of you who know me, this poem was all about the crappy time I have been having at work. I hate it when work encroaches in on every aspect of my life. It blows the big kitten. Anyway please enjoy the current winners as they all are great writers.

Jennifer M Scott – “Misery and her Sister” – A bad couple of days at work channeled into words.
dragon blogger – “Curious Storefront” – Poem about a merchant dealer of souls.
Zorlone – “Meteor Shower of Tears” – A lonesome man remembering the love he professed to a woman.

Have You Tried Sponsored Tweets?

Posted on | November 17, 2009 | 1 Comment

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Sponsored Tweets. All opinions are 100% mine.

Picture-26-468x306

Izea, the company that brought you PayperPost, V4 Payperpost and Social Spark figured out another way to make a quick buck using your twitter account. This new money making platform is Sponsored Tweets. I am a user of Sponsored Tweets and I really like it. I haven’t made enough money to cash out yet, which is $50, but I make a couple of dollars here and there. I make $1.42 per sponsored tweet. I know some of you are thinking that this sounds spammy but the difference is you don’t have to tweet every single offer that comes your way. Accept only the advertisements you like and would be to happy to endorse. This is the largest feature of Sponsored Tweets, you can select the tweets you want.

Since it is a tweet the descriptions are short (140 characters) and all sponsored tweets are disclosed (you can choose which style of disclosure you like the best). Sometimes, the advertiser will already write the tweet and other times you can write the tweet. You set you rate for each tweet. Sponsored Tweets will suggest a price based on your twitter account such as followers, following, and how many tweets. If you are looking for an incredibly easy way to make some money then why not sign up for sponsored tweets today and see how it works for you.

My Life 11/16/09

Posted on | November 16, 2009 | 1 Comment

Only two more days and then I am off. Thank the freaking the god. These six day stretches are for the god damn birds, for some one who is only part time, it sure feels like I live there. Enough bitching about work, who the hell cares anyway.

So you wouldn’t believe what happened to last night. I did something pretty dumb. I opened a pack of trick or treat mini m&m’s. Have you ever noticed that that minis taste a lot different than the regular M&M’s. Anyway I pour the bag out in my hand and go to toss them in my mouth. Some how one of those little M&M’s get in my nose. Lucky for me it didn’t go in that far. I panicked a little though.

I can imagine the headlines woman dies from M&M stuffed up her nose next on your local news.  This was an easy fix as I bent over and blew the M&M out of my nose.  I am still trying to figure out how the damn thing got up there in the first place. Maybe that is a sign, I should be eating M&M’s or at least stick with the peanut ones because they won’t get stuck in my nose. If it did either I have a huge snozz or something.

I just had to share that with you all. Now aren’t you feeling much better since I did.

Good Bye Seniors

Posted on | November 16, 2009 | No Comments

This past Saturday was the last time the Senior lions stepped into Beaver Stadium and I wish them all sorts of luck after Penn State.

Okay now down to business. What the hell happened Saturday? Mistake after mistake, however the Lions redeemed themselves and eeked by with a win. I believed they would clobber the Hoosiers for the simple fact the Hoosiers just didn’t have a very good season. That would tickled Indiana if they would have beat Penn State at home. Final score 31-20, Penn State. Penn State is now 9-2 for the season, 5-2 Big Ten and ranked 12. Next week the Lions travel to Michigan State for their last game.

I would like to say this game would be a walk in the park but it won’t. In fact, it will be rather tough but provide a lot of nail biting for the fans. Michigan State is 6-5 for the season and 4-3 for Big Ten. They win just as much as they lose which makes them unpredictable. They won against Montana, Michigan, Illinois, Purdue and Northwestern. Some reason they didn’t play Ohio. Either winning or losing it is not by a large margin.

Penn State will finish the season with a win but it won’t be easy to get it either. My prediction… 21-18 Penn State. After this game we can see what kind of post season games Penn State will play and thus another year of the Lion Lowdown will be gone until next August.

WE ARE

PENN STATE
