47

HOLY RELAMPAGOS I woke up this morning and all of a sudden I'm 47!! HOW did that happen??!! Here are last year's lessons: Miracles DO happen, Mexico CAN beat Brazil in soccer. Always, always be kind, with every word and every action BE KIND! Do not expect loyalty where there is no loyalty to expect. Sometimes, it is better to just walk away. 14 year olds (not unlike 13 year olds) HATE public di...splays of affection. I gave birth to really witty children. Apparently I nag just a little too much. I suspect in a previous life I was British given my affliction for period pieces and Downton Abbey. I eat out of a doggie bowl. It's a very GOOD thing I listened to the warnings against buying into the Facebook IPO. If you are not having a good day borrow a baby to hold. I am weird and logical. I can't bake. Turns out it's all about impact not intent. Take time to remember loved ones. There are very few choices when it comes to grief. Sun euphoria leads to painful injuries and black eyes. I gotta relax and let life just ... happen. Remember to CREATE and explore new knowledge every day. Im SOLAR POWERED! Apologize for your mistakes. Giving bad news STILL and I suspect will ALWAYS SUCK. Blue eyes make me feel sexy. Rape IS rape. Oldies are still goodies. The new song to cross triumphant finish lines in races - Hall of Fame by The Script. Keep eating chocolate, it may win you a Nobel. If you eat too much chocolate you gain weight - duh!!!! I LOVE bluegrass music and Chris Thile rocks! Running is THE best therapy. To quote my brother: "nobody is really paying that much attention to what you do so allow yourself to dance". Always be kindly blunt, straightforward and upfront. Say it and do it IN LIFE! The people I work with are pretty awesome and darn tooting respectful. For the record I voted FOR hugs (see below). Cuddle and read sessions should be held as often as possible. Pricey sneakers and good bras are well worth their price. There is ABSOLUTELY no trading IQ points especially NOT for bigger breast! SQUAT do not sit! Ann Coulter is an insensitive bitch. Never underestimate the power of a good hair day. Sometimes in life there is just no winning so settle for the lesson. Time puts color in everything. I am not condescending I'm often thinking of important stuff that other people would never understand . I look good in blue. Its ok, and I don't have to feel guilty if I want to stay indoors and nap every weekend from November to May - bears do it, no big deal. And last but not least I'm NOT loud I'm just Mexican. Oh! hang on, one more, being closer to 50 does not get you any closer to understanding the "meaning" of life -so keep searching or maybe just LIVING! By the way: WIDE OPEN FOR HUGS TODAY (particularly non -respectful ones) :))))))
