Ban “Wolf-like” dogs??

retrohippie — Thu, 24 Sep 2009 19:06:10 +0000

Ca residents please sign this petition to keep California from Banning wolf-hybrids! The law is too vague and any dog that is picked up and deemed to be “part wolf” could be put down. I have three purebred Siberian Huskies that are often mistaken for wolves, it would make me sick to have this law and thikning if they got out they could be put downupon being caught.

Please sign!

I have a new favorite site, HouseParty.com! The concept is word of mouth advertising, and they do this by having companie interested in sharing their products send “party Packs” to party hosts! There are probably 8 to ten parties running at any given time, you apply for the ones you would be interested in hosting! I loved the site so much I called my mom right away and she signed up to! We are now each hosting a party in the next month, I was selected to host a party for avocados from mexico, and they will be providing avocados and some other goodies, I cant wait as I LOVE avocados, Ill post more about my party when I know more.

A few days later my mom was selected to host a Ford Taurus party, one host will even win a ford Taurus and all her guests will get to test drive the car. More on her party too when we know more, for now just go check out www.houseparty.com and sign up to host your own party with fun free goodies!

Nescafe Tasters Choice Decaf

My first experience with instant coffee….and its decaf….. and I cant believe it its absolutely yummy!

I rember my grandparents using the nestle instant coffee of twenty years ago, though I was a child at the time and didnt begin to drink cofee until college. By this time my mother had convinced me that instant coffee is awful so I never bothered to try it. I guess I was a bit of a coffee snob. But Nescafe sent me samples of all six of their flavors of instant coffee this week, and after two cups of my regular cofee needed something decaf. This was the only option in the house, but I tried it and am so pleasantly surprised. It is great, Im enjoying every sip as I type this, and cant wait to try the remaining five (cafinated) versions. So it passed the taste test, I checked out the price at Sams club and its $9 for a pack of seven of the prepackaged portions! Thats more than it would cost me per cup to get it at 7-11 down the street with all the flavored creamers. Not going to become a part of my routine any time soon, though I will enjoy the samples they sent.

Here go get your own try it for yourself!

New Fancy Feast Appetizers

retrohippie — Thu, 24 Sep 2009 17:15:15 +0000

I got a free sample in the mail from Fancy Feast for my kitty to try their new appetizers. They sent a white meat chicken flavored package. This morning instead of their normal canned fancy feast i gave them the appetizer. They LOVED it! In fact they were both meowing before I even got the package open. No leftovers this morning!

Being a caring pet mom, I go to the website to check out nutritional information. I do find that they say it has no fillers, other than that I had a hard time finding any actual information. My guess is its probably not the best food for them, but I only give it as a treat in the morning, its not their main diet so it doesnt count right….. ? While on the website I did find that you can order a beautiful glass cat dish like the one in the commercials with 12 UPCs and just 2.99 shipping and handling. Hmm I might order one for fun.

So thats love it, nutrition may not be the very best, but its certainly not the worst and its just a snack, so all that was left is to check the price. $1.29 each. Compared to what I normally pay $.55 for their normal canned fancy feast, seemed a bit steep. My normal can though appears smaller on first glance is actually 3 oz while the cleverly packaged appetizer looks larger but is in fact only 2 oz. Well the price was the final decision maker here, though my cats loved it i will not be switching them to the fancy feast appetizers the price does not do justice to the product. However, on sale with a good coupon and I will score a couple for the kitties as a treat.

magics in the makeup

Can you tell I’m faking it?
But I want to be myself
A counterfeit disposition
Can’t be good for my health

So many different faces
Depending on the different phases
My personality changes
I’m a chameleon

There’s more then one dimension
I can fool you and attract attention
Camouflage my nature
Let me demonstrate

Makeup’s all off
Who am I?
Magic’s in the makeup
Who am I?

If you bore me then I’m comfortable
If you interest me I’m scared
My attraction paralyses me
No courage to show my true colors that exist

But I want to be the real thing
But if you catch my eye can’t be authentic
The ones I loath are the one’s
That know me the best

My makeup’s all off
Who am I?
The magic’s in the makeup
Who am I?

The makeup’s all off
Who am I?
If the magic’s in the make up
Then who am I?

Magic’s in the makeup
But I want to be the real thing
But the magic’s in the makeup
And I want to be the real thing

My makeup’s all off
Who am I?

Gretchen looks so peaceful sleeping on the carpet, sunlight filters through the blinds landing in stripes over her body. She pays not attention to the tapping of the computer keys, as I go about my day. Talking to people who dont really know me, and for all I know dont even exists. Or at least, dont exist in the form I believe them to. How much truer a friend is my cat, waiting until Im done with this silly pretend life on the computer, and can return to my real life with her. Cuddling together while watching tv, the way she excitedly meows when I return home, the “feed me NOW! meow” The cats may be the ones who know me best, so how much more authentic is the life I share with them?

Monet Quote

Claude Monet: The richness I achieve comes from Nature, the source of my inspiration.

to see the waterlilly garden monet painted is to understand, in fact, nature was his inspiration, and as beautiful as each of his paintings are, they could never compare with what nature herself designed.
