Renee, I'll agree that the Linkin Park song is a little annoying when he keeps repeating "I bleed it out...." So, here is a more mellow song that I'm obsessed with. Marie HATES when I play music over and over again but yesterday, when she was not home, I put it on repeat for over an hour.
I'll be honest, I'm kinda mad that I even like this song after finding out that Billy Corgan sings it. I used to HATE smashing pumpkins when Marie loved them! But it's like eating bruschetta and loving it then saying "gross! it's made out of tomatoes? i HATE it!" You can't really take it back once you've liked it. So anyways, I love that song...

Arizona
Oh how I miss Arizona! I love it there. I've never actually liked pools or the heat but I think that is slowly changing. Actually, it's probably just that I don't like the humidity that comes along with MI or FL heat. It was 90 degrees and absolutely PERFECT in AZ! I don't have pictures yet cause my friends are slacking on uploading them but here are a few I took from my phone:
The backyard of the beautiful house I'm obsessed with!...

The "dusty" bottles =)

What our days consisted of...

The song of the trip...
So my question to you all is....WHO CHOSE MI?

We all know that cigarettes are bad for us. But have you ever really looked into what cigarettes and cigarette smoke contain? I went to thetruth.com to show Renee some of their very clever commercials but found so much more!!! How do you feel after reading the following?:
* Hydrogen Cyanide is found in cigarette smoke. Hydrogen Cyanide is also used in prison executions.
* Acetic Acid is found in cigarettes. Acetic Acid is also found in floor wipes.
* Insects have been found in cigarettes. Insects are also found in dirt.
* Sodium Hydroxide is found in cigarettes. Sodium Hydroxide is also found in hair remover.
* Acetanisole is found in cigarettes. Acetanisole is also an ingredient in some perfumes.
* Toluene is found in cigarette smoke. Toluene is also found in dynamite.
* Hydrogen cyanide is found in cigarette smoke. Hydrogen cyanide is also in rat poison.
* Formaldehyde is found in cigarette smoke. Formaldehyde preserves the dead.
* Geraniol is found in cigarettes. Geraniol is also found in pesticides.

OH MY FUCK!!!!!
I'm ready to cancel my trip to AZ....I am NOT kidding, if i see one of these anywhere near me....omg I don't even know what I'd do. What am I supposed to do? I am being 100% serious, what do you do if a snake is near you? Run in zigzags? Oh wait no, that's an alligator. Do you just run from a snake? Can they outrun/outslither a human? I'm gonna navigate a hospital on my phone from now. =(
The heading for this video was "Rattlesnake on the patio in Cave Creek"
p.s. if you're wondering how I found this, I youtubed "Cave Creek", the city where the house we're staying at is, and this shit came up.

Nanny or chef? Nanny or Chef?
What'd you guys think? Since I can do snappy from anywhere, why not make extra money. Why didn't I think of this before?? So I thought I'd find a prt-time nanny/babysitting job. A couple days a week. I was telling Brian my idea and he thinks I should be a personal chef instead. So the Poll of the day is: Personal Chef or Nanny? (or cooking classes)

Who wants to move?
It's been SO long since I've posted a real blog. Sorry to my daily readers (foof). There just is nothing to blog about!! My life is EXTREMELY boring. I'm really just sick of everything in MI. I feel like my life is at a stand still. I wanna move! But I can't do it alone, I'm too big of a chicken to live alone =( Chicago, Vegas, or Scottsdale anyone?? (I'm open to other cities too!)
So I thought more people would have donated to the Relay for Life by now! What is everyone waiting for?? For everyone reading this, PLEASE forward the email I sent to EVERYONE you know, or even ask your employers for a corporate (tax-deductible) donation! If you don't have the email let me know, I'll resend it to you. Thank you in advance! We have a couple events coming up. I'll write more about them when I have all the details.
You know how Marie has picture of the day? Well, I'm gonna start song lyric of the post (whenever I post)
"I don't care what other people say,
I don't wanna give it up easy.
I can't keep on holding on your love.
Nobody knows what I feel,
Nobody feels what I say.
I can't keep on holding on your love"
