Holy Cannoli

As in

"leave the gun, take the cannoli".

If you can name that movie – leave me a comment! and HOLLA!!!

Anyways – cannot believe I haven’t blogged in forever. What, almost a month? so much for new years resolutions to be a better blogger!

Today I woke up at 4 am because I could smell the tart i left burning all nite starting to scorch. Sometimes I am glad Ben isn’t here…that would be one of those times! WOW would I have been in trouble for that one! but its a good thing he loves me so that now he can just laugh about it from the comfort of his own hotel room far far away! So then I got up, turned it off, and laid in bed for the next two hours just thinking of the gojillion and one things I have to/want to/ am excited to do. I have been told I am "too busy", but really, its times like this that i feel MOST energized, ready to grab life by the horns and go for a little ride! I just am not ORGANIZED enough to make it all happen gracefully. I am best summed up by a kickin’ ballad from the 80’s by a talented group of young men who call themselves "The Scorpions":

Here I am {insert air guitar riff}

ROCK YOU LIKE A HURRICANE!!! {insert guitar riff and mumbo jumbo soprano range na na na na na na}

I kind of just explode into my own life. Its like one day I just get this burst of energy and decide to do 79 things and they all must be done RIGHT THEN AND THERE. But I haven’t planned for those 79 things, nor have I ensured that the 12 things I was doing the day before  are completed. Lack of organization – gets ya every time. So I sabotage myself. And since I am classically passive aggressive, instead of facing the things that aren’t done, I just start a new project so I don’t have to finish the old one. So I constantly have all these things just sitting there on my to -do list, like a chinese plate spinner (I just know that phrase is going to get  me a google search hit!)

But they’re all GOOD things! That’s what i tell myself. They’re all great things and I have the best of intentions, I just have no foundation (called organization) upon which to build my intentions. There IS a solution somewhere though that will work for me and this crazy life I lead. The key is just finding it.

I am sure I will be back for more later today. i have to blog about the newest addition to our family. The Eel.

Which I must HAND FEED a small fish to.

with a device ben invented known as the "Fish" "Feeder". {Picture me doing my Dr. Evil finger quote thingy here". Or Chris Farley the "motivational speaker". Whichever floats your boat.}

More fun times from the eye of the hurricane coming soon.

  1. Plus Chinese Plate Spinner’s are cool. Did you ever see the special features of “The Royal Tenenbaums” where Pagoda is doing his magic show and spinning a ton of plates? It’s awesome!

  2. Hey! Isn’t the Cannoli thing from the Godfather? I only know this because they quoted the line in You’ve Got Mail! Glad to see you’re back. This is the only way I know what’s going on with you since you say you’re going to call me…then, nothing. 🙁 Love ya, Faith 🙂
