30 Days of Self-Acceptance: "Day 3"

LDs, I've never been one to follow the crowd, and if I do, I've still got to do something different with it.


Like with this 30-Days of Self-Acceptance. I hate doing things in order.


Yesterday was days 1, 5 & 10; today is day 3.


Day 3 -- Eat. Whatever you feel like eating.

HA! What this lil' ol' meme doesn't realise is that I eat whatever I feel like eating anyway! (that would explain the weight issue...).


Take, for example, right now. I'm having leftover pork fried rice for brunch.


Most of you may say "Eww! That's gross!" but let me tell you something: right now, it's the best thing in the world because it's what I was craving.

Probably going to have Wendy's for lunch. Or TacoSmell. Or Arby's. Or corndogs. Whatever I feel like eating, I'll probably eat.

What's nice is that it's my town's "homecoming" - Old Settlers'. There's going to be more crap than I could ever eat, but right about now, I might try one of everything!!

What are you craving?

30 Days of Self Acceptance

I'm talking about accepting yourself for all your faults, idiosyncracies, problems, weirdness, etc.


With the exception of my weight, I do accept myself.
I get told I'm weird - I accept that.
I'm crazy - I accept that as well.
Odd? Yeah, I know.
Loony? Guilty as charged.


So I'm trying this 30-Day Self-Acceptance bit. I'll probably lump some of them together so that I do them all.


Like the movie/TV/music ones.


For today.

1. Declare your love for an uncool television show.
5. Declare your love for an uncool movie.
10. Declare your love for an uncool band.


Let's see...


TV?
Would have to be Due South. Hot hot hot Paul Gross. Deaf white wolf (whom my aunt's dog is named after). Canadian Mountie (how about Canadian mountme...) with the Stetson of Imperviousness. In Chicago. Did I mention that Paul Gross is hot? RCMP tracks father's killers to Chicago. It only aired for four seasons, and no one that I know has heard of it. I really need to get it on Netflix and watch it again. Cause the only thing I remember is the hot Canadian Mountme Mountie.


Movie?
Stardust. Claire Danes. Some cute boy. Robert DeNiro (in a dress, at one point!). Sienna Miller. Michelle Pfieffer. Stars have feelings, did you know that? They learn what love is from us here on earth. Check it out if you want a hokey love story!

Band?
There are a few, actually: O-Zone. Eiffel 65. RuPaul. Chumbawamba. Aqua.

They all have peppy, poppy, fun to dance to songs...even though most of them either make no damn sense, or they're in a different language (and therefore, make no damned sense). I like music with a good beat.


What are your loves that are unpopular? Own them - they are part of you.

I Fail

Not at life.
At blogging.
Like, OBVIOUSLY (thanks, Bex).

Ya know, I think that there are loads of things that I'd like to say, but I'm never sure of myself or how others are going to take what I say. Most of the time, it should be with a grain of salt (and some tequila and some lime, of course).

So I saw on Chibi Jeebs' page that she's doing a 30 Days of Shamelessness.

And since I'm such a follower (just call me a lemming), I feel that I want to do this as well. It most likely won't be 30 days long (because I fail that way), but I could combine days...

Anyway, I'm going to try to do this. I have been carrying around a student planner (Dollar General, $2, lime green) that I'm jotting things down in I need to do. I'll print the list, and decide when I'm doing what. Of course, me being me, I won't do them in any semblance of order.

Something else I've been thinking about: attending a blogging conference next year. I so want to go, just so I can meet some of the people who live in my computer. I really think Kisha should go as well (right, love?). I want to learn new things! I want to meet new people! I want SWAG! (Yeah, I'm a bit greedy as well).

So, how have you been doing lately?

Love you all,
Ms D

Wednesday Recap...since I'm lame.

Hey y'all. How's it going? I didn't get a chance to do Sunday recap here in the tinyhouse. So we'll do it today.

~~Had a mini reunion with four classmates from eighth Friday night (1992). Good GOD we've got some good memories!

~~Had my 15 year high school Saturday eve. Definitely had a much better time this year than at the 10th.

~~Got my dumb ass sunburnt on Sunday...even with SPF 50 and sweating. My chest and upper shoulders are incredibly pink and hurty. If a redhead with freckles and pale skin is a Ginger, and if you're just freckled and pale, you're a Daywalker, what if you're just a redhead? Fuck. That makes me a Daywalker. :)

~~Really missing southern Illinois after being there all weekend. Anyone know how to cure them blues?

~~Nothing much else happened...

How was your week?

Sunday Recap

LDs, I'd like to try blogging once a week. I do feel like I'm neglecting you (and myself) by not trying hard enough.

So here are snippets:

~~ Mum's 52nd birthday was today. Oma made dinner and we all had a good time. Happy birthday, Mum!

~~ Oma's dog Biscuit died Friday morning. She misses her something fierce. She was older than 10, but they really don't know because my aunt basically stole her from a home that was neglecting her - middle of winter with no food and water or shelter kind of abuse. That dog was spoiled rotten, and we'll all miss her, but Oma's hurting pretty badly. :( Send her love, if you would. Mr and I bought her a husky figurine, and it made her cry, but it's now on the table next to her spot on the couch.

~~ I'm almost finished with the jewelry for the Mr's sister's wedding at the end of August. However, I do still have to make the flowers, order candles, and make a tutu for the flower girl. Send me some energy, yos!

~~ I'm completely addicted to Pinterest. Facking shit...stupid iPhone app doesn't work all the time. :P

~~ I'm taking the advice of something I read: if you're cleaning out your house, and you need to get rid of something, but you don't want to because of sentimental reasons, take photographs (or pics, whatever you prefer *wink*) and write something about it. Even ten discs of pictures is going to take up WAY less space than the crap itself. I have to take my numbers off my letter jacket from high school, and then that wool coat is going in the yard sale for $10; t-shirts are getting cut up to be used in a light quilt; other stuff's getting sold or donated. My niece had never seen paper dolls, so I gave her the set that I had. How cool of an auntie am I?

~~ The Mr and I want to start a creative business, so if you want to check it out on the Book of Face, it's Two Hearts Creations. I run it, and imma start posting pictures of the stuff I make on it; see if anyone will bite. :)

~~ Had a fab time last week in Texas with one of my besties Lynsey. I love jewelry!

So, how was your week, all?

PS - if you wanna be on the Stalked Minions list, let me know! I'm working on getting my own header and some buttons to follow me on email, twitter, facebook, etc. :)
