Jupiter

This is Jupiter! Though she has plenty of other names (jup, spaz, kitty, hop-scotch, and HEY YOU!) Her favorite things are shoe laces, small places, watching you in the shower, feathers, feet under the sheets, paper bags, licking you to death, and fighting with Kara :)

San Francisco Giants

Since we couldn't do much for July 4th we made up for a few days before and went to San Francisco for the Giants vs. Cubs!! The Giants lost 6-5 but it was a close game with much excitement! We were so close we had to keep our eyes locked on the ball just in case a fly-ball was headed our way! They hit it close to us a few times but never made a catch.
Regardless it was a great night!


That's Right! Second Row! Directly behind Third Base!

Melanoma up 50 percent since 1980

Get the Message?!

Are we really still on this topic?!

Are we (America) 'soaking up the sun' because we don't care or is it because we don't really think it's 'burning' years off our life? (yeah, i know the play on words needs to stop)! Whe are still trying to prove to people that smoking is bad after years of our grandparents dieing of emphysema and lung cancer so why wouldn't the Health Media beat a dead horse about skin cancer - it obviously is going to take another century of skin graphs and circle-shaped scares before the message hits home!


I can't express how angry i am when i hear about tanning beds or girls laying-out to reach their color for the summer - being uneducated is no longer an excuse. I have no patience for those who are careless about long-term effects and play the 'immortal' card.

I don't care if this makes me sound like an ol'hag who hates the outdoors and thinks everyone is going to die of skin cancer - i don't feel that way i simply believe that if you can prevent some danger to your body then at least make the effort to. Enjoy the outdoors and bring in the nature but don't let it poison your largest living organ.

Back to the Drawing Board . . .


After three days off i reflect on what the heck i did with my time. . .

I paid some bills - i don't know why i put that task off so much - i pay them online where it's as easy as pushing the left button the mouse . . . like i don't do that all day anyways!

I went to a new restaurant in town - i give it 3 stars - the decor was better than the food but i will go again for the good wine!

I blogged more in the last three days than i have in the last three weeks :)

I have been watching Wimbledon off and on for the last few days - i would give anything for a good tennis game right about now! As i write this S.Williams and A.Radwanska are playing their second match . . wait . . . Serena just won! Surprise Surprise!!! Federer is still my favorite ;)

Was able to get through a few tough conversations - those are never planned out but worth the work - especially when it comes to best friends! Speaking of overdue conversations - i had a conversation in one of my dreams last night with a person who i have not talked to for about a year. He has been increasingly invading my thoughts lately. Not so much in a negative manner but haunting my dreams like a ghost with unfinished business. I have been tempted to write an email just to say 'i thought of you' and 'hope all is well' but because i know him a little too well I'm not sure if he would actually take those words sincerely or not. Honestly, my biggest fear is not being ready for his reply and getting hurt all over again. I actually don't want to hear from him because I'm sure he is doing just fine, probably more 'fine' than he deserves. Anyways . . .

I can't wait til Wednesday night GIANTS GAME BABY!!! Seeing as i have to work on July 4th, my favorite holiday, i needed to make up for it!!! Can't wait!!!
Okay, if i must, I'm going to get ready for work! Is it STILL called work when you don't care anymore? or is it just the opposite? Is it called 'work' when you don't care?
