Weekend Update

No, it's not Saturday Night Live.

I got my new cell phone yesterday, it makes me happy. I can take pictures with it. :-) Today I am going to a baby shower, and then a wedding, and then to Edinboro. I am going to be at my first Snow Water Grove Ritual on Sunday, which I am really looking forward to.

Life Is Good.

Respect

I have so much respect for Jennifer Aniston. I try not to get caught up in celebrity gossip, but the Brad/Angelina/Jenn thing had a weird fascination for me. I've hated how the tabloids have portrayed Jennifer Aniston since then. Either she's supposedly pining away for Brad Pitt, or her new relationships are being closely watched to see when they'll fail. She's a divorced woman who is trying to find someone again. If she wasn't famous, people would be rooting for her. And I'm sure the people that are important to her, her close friends and family are.

Quote from her Elle Interview:

On being labeled a "lonely girl": "I'm not going to ignore the pink elephant in the living room. It's fine. I can take it. If I'm the emblem for 'this is what it looks like to be the lonely girl getting on with her life,' so be it."

So be it.

Suz Can Cook

I made myself some yummy sausage for breakfast this morning. I also had a banana and some orange juice. Last night I fried up some pierogies and ate them with sour cream. I did some dishes this morning, and got the Wii hooked up. So I am feeling pretty confident and productive right now.

I am trying to start working through Truth Or Dare by Starhawk now. I am having a hard time getting going today. It's a really great book though on different types of power and how people interact.

I also received a new Amazon gift card the other day. I am trying to decide what to buy. There are movies I want, Wii Games I want (Animal Crossing: City Folk!), and as always, books I want.

I saw the mailman come and put something in my box, I should put on some pants and go down to check.

One Way Ticket (Because I Can)

Standing on the border
Looking out into the great unknown
I can feel my heart beating faster as I step out on my own
There's a new horizon and the promise of favorable wind
I'm heading out tonight, traveling light
I'm gonna start all over again

And buy a one way ticket on a west bound train
See how far I can go (because I can)
I'm gonna go out dancing in the pouring rain
And talk to someone I don't know (because I can)
I will face the world around me
Knowing that Im strong enough to let you go
And I will fall in love again
Because I can

Gonna climb the mountain
And look the eagle in the eye
I won't let fear clip my wings and tell me how high I can fly
How could I have ever believed
That love had to be so blind
When freedom was waiting, down at the station
All I had to do was make up my mind

And buy a one way ticket on a west bound train
See how far I can go (because I can)
I'm gonna go out dancing in the pouring rain
And talk to someone I don't know (because I can)
I will face the world around me
Knowing that I'm strong enough to let you go
And I will fall in love again
Because I can

Well, I have walked through the fire
And crawled on my knees through the valley of the shadow of doubt
Then the truth came shining like a light on me and now I can see my way out

I'm gonna buy a one way ticket on a west bound train
See how far I can go (because I can)
I'm gonna go out dancing in the pouring rain
And talk to someone I don't know
I'm gonna buy a one way ticket on a west bound train
Gonna have my breakfast with some pink champagne
I'm gonna sail the ocean, I'm gonna spread my wings
I'm gonna climb that mountain, gonna do everything

Merry Part and Blessed Be
