I was watching ABC NEWS and good ole Charlie Gibson was doing his good feel story at the end of the news and he told of this thing going around called Guerrilla Gardening. Groups of people gather at blighted city spots clean it up and plant flowers and shrubs. They do it at night because they are cleaning and planting on city property and it is "illegal" but it is not the typical crime they go after, I know you all are a bunch a rebels and are just looking for trouble. So go plant people

Book Club
My Book Club is small and eclectic. We are also nuts. My friend Shamus and I started it about 2 years ago and have been through several phases. We went from Book Club to Game Group to Dinner Club to Nothing.
Now we are back again at book club. I have put an add up on Craigs List and I am thinking about Facebook/Myspace. But not sure. We are reading Junot Diaz's Pulitzer Prize winning 'The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao'. You may ask how did you find this book? NPR I do on occasion listen to NPR and though the interview I heard was some time ago I was fascinated. So I picked it. Don't ask me what about the interview fascinated me I have slept many moons since then.
If you are a local yocal come and join us 2nd and 4th Tuesday of the month. If you are not local but come into town when we meet then come by. Or if you have read a good book please tell me so I can ask my group to read it.
What good book have you read?
Is there something you would like to read?

I think you are a pig
I really do. I thought that we had settled this whole we are nothing more than friends thing. Me + you = friends, not friends with benefits JUST FRIENDS.
But, you seem to take some huge great offense that have slept with other guys and not you. I was trying to be polite when I said "I just don't see you that way. I just see you as a friend." If you don't know that means I will NEVER sleep with you. I can't see myself kissing you much less having sex with you. And after you flat out ignoring my whole "We're friends" Thing and you kept asking for me to give it a try let me try and get you hot. I don't think I even see you as a friend any more. You are fucking 4 freaking 5 years old. Grow the fuck up. I have delt with 20 year olds who understand this were just friends thing better than you do.

What is Parnormal?
I have been asked that question quite a bit lately. The first few times it threw me off. Not like when someone ask you with all seriousness who is George Clooney? More like when the ask you who is C. Thomas Howell?
So what is paranormal?
According to Wikipedia Paranormal is a general term that describes unusual experiences that lack a scientific explanation,[1] or phenomena alleged to be outside of science's current ability to explain or measure.[2] In parapsychology, it is used to describe the potentially psychic phenomena of telepathy, extra-sensory perception, psychokinesis, ghosts, and hauntings. The term is also applied to UFOs, some creatures that fall under the scope of cryptozoology, purported phenomena surrounding the Bermuda Triangle, and other non-psychic subjects.[3] Stories relating to paranormal phenomena are found in popular culture and folklore, but the scientific community, as referenced in statements made by organization such as the United States National Science Foundation, contends that scientific evidence does not support paranormal beliefs.[4]
The group I am part of basically Ghost Hunts. We don't like to be called Ghost Busters it is a big No no. We will not come in and take your ghost home with us and put him in our storage locker. if you call or e-mail us we will come and bring in all out toys and tell you if we think you might have a ghost or if you have old pipes. The Group I am part of will come into your home with an open mind. But we are also looking at what else could cause that.
Like:
Does the wind cause the door to swing shut?Or do you step on the floor boards and it causes the door to shut?
Is that sound the pipes?
Is someone off their medication? Or taking more than they should?
In that picture is someone smoking? Is it their hair? Did you know that like 90% of the time that orb is a bug or dust.
And there are the things that we stop and say WTF was that? There are just some things we see and hear that make us wonder.
So yes I Ghost Hunt that is what for me being into paranormal investigation is all about. That is the boiled down version. I have a digital voice recorder and a point and shoot camera. Next on my to buy list is an EMF detector But if any of you out would like to gift to me an inferred camera I will gladly forward you my mailing address. I will also answer your questions.

Trepidation
Today when my Boos took me and my co-worker to lunch at Wendy's. He told me, I need to be finished with Domino's by May 1st. I did not have this euphoric "THANK YOU JESUS!!!!" feeling I expected. I am terrified.
I called the worlds best baby sister and told her how I was feeling. She told me " He's your Boss and maybe he needs your focus totally on this PA (Personal Assistant) thing."
I am getting my raise apparently May 1st I don't know how much and I am scared. Scare to do this on one job. I know I have been wanting one job for 2 years now. But the thought of doing it on one scares the shit out of me. The economy is in the toilet in case you missed the news lately. So its not like I can just go back out and find a second job that bends to my crazy life style or hell a second job at all.
So this great elation, the joy , the thrill I wanted to have. The feelings I was sure I would have. I don't. I re dated my resignation letter today and it brought me no joy. I have had plans for my resignation blog for over a year this was not how I was going to tell you all I had one job this was not in my plan this must be where God Laughs do you hear him?
Top Mom the answer to your question is coming.

Do you have a Pass Port
"Did you know that on June 1, 2009, U.S. citizens must present a passport book, passport card, or other travel documents approved by the U.S. government to leave or enter the United States from Canada, Mexico, the Caribbean and Bermuda at all points of entry? If unaware of this policy change you are probably like many American citizens that may get caught off guard while preparing to board an airplane or ship for vacation this year."
From personal experience it can take up to six weeks to get a passport - -and that is if you already have a certified birth certificate. Those (with the raised seal - not a photocopy) can take a month or more to obtain. If you are planning on leaving the country at all, go ahead and get the ball rolling on getting your passport.
