The really odd couple: Depp, Burton reunite
‘Sweeney Todd’ marks the actor and director sixth collaboration
updated 5:30 p.m. CT, Wed., Dec. 12, 2007
NEW YORK - Dressed in drag and standing in front of a meat locker, Johnny Depp smiles into the camera and cheerfully declares, “Tim’s a swell guy.”
In its genuine warmth and weirdness, this moment, played out between scenes during the filming of 1994’s “Ed Wood,” encapsulates the ongoing collaboration between Depp and director Tim Burton.
Even amid the dark, surreal worlds the two have brought to life, they’re all smiles.

I recently found out that I have a Fear of having Fears.
Phobophobia. I think that is very funny. AND it explains why I go out of my way to conquer all my fears and to be fearless. I have always been a tomboy and a daredevil. Always trying to prove to myself that I am NOT afraid of anything. Even if I'm terrified.
Right now I am trying to conquer a new fear. Philophobia- Fear of falling in love or being in love. It seems that I have a few more fears than I'd like to admit. I'm hoping with a little self-analysis I can conquer this fear pretty quickly.
I wonder why I don't have a fear of psychopathic, narcissistic, sociopathic, crap-piles walking around disguised as people. That would make more sense to me. :D

This was written January 3, 2007 (a lot has changed and a lot has stayed the same...)
Current mood: apathetic
Happy 2007!
My parents were out late last night gambling and celebrating and when I stumbled downstairs at 7:00 am they were on their way out the door again. Guess Dad is on a hot streak and they are trying to get enough money together to buy a new Lexus. Mom wants a Lexus before she dies. And her thinking is that since she might not live too long they better get busy on it. Can't say as I find fault with that thinking and since she does have breast/lung cancer it's true that she might die soon. But, I have this feeling she'll live to be 90 if not longer. As my sister says, Evil never dies. Not that mom is evil incarnate exactly, she's just evil enough to live to be 90.
My sons spent the weekend in Atlanta with my sister and her kids. They have fun over there, lots of people and things to do. So it was just me at the house last night. I was too down and depressed to play EQ2 or even read. Which is pretty damn down. No particular reason for it. Just couldn't get enough energy up to open my eyes and face life I guess.
Right before Mom left the house this morning she started rambling about getting her poodles groomed. It seems she has this theory that nothing can be done because Pres. George W Bush has extended Pres. Ford's funeral and viewing for a couple days because of the holidays. In my Mom's mind this translates into the fact that dog groomers will have extra days off. I have NO idea how you get these 2 thoughts to reconcile to each other but she does. As I was standing there slugging back my coffee listening to her ramble on about it, it just seemed to prove that I really do live in the freaking twilight zone.
This morning I started reading a book so I must be feeling a bit better. Not that laying in bed reading a book is the epitomy of being energized and full of life. It's just that much better than laying in bed not reading a book. I even managed to feed the sea monkeys. Sea monkeys are just about the perfect pet. I highly recommend them. I like my birds and the fish are cool. Mom's poodles are a pain in the ass, even though the kids seem to enjoy them. But, for easy maintenance vs. entertainment value sea monkeys win hands down.
Well I'm going back to my book. Who knows I might even get up later and do something exciting, like the laundry, or clean the bathrooms, hell I might go really wild and shampoo the carpets! We'll just have to wait and see. Life is what you make it and well life in BFE Mississippi is not that much different than life anywhere else, really, just a whole lot less going on.
(after thinking about it I figured out what the hell my problem is... I'm homesick. I want to go home, not to the 'home' where my family is, but my real home. Just like Dorothy, except without the red shiny shoes.
I really really do not belong in Mississippi or anywhere near here. I'm trying and there are some good things about being here but I miss Washington, I miss Seattle, I miss Bellingham, I miss Sedro-Woolley, hell I even miss Mount Vernon. I miss knowing where things are, I miss the Sound, the mountains, the rain, the cold gray skies, I miss Jack-in-the-Box, I miss the Skagit River, Mount Baker, Hwy 20, Chuckanut Dr. I miss my friends most of all.
I've moved tons of times. I have lived all over the country but I lived in WA the longest and I guess it got in me. Even when I was a kid I didn't get homesick. Well that's not a surprise really. When I was shipped off to various people for months at a time, I was THANKFUL to not be at home. Most of the time I didn't even know where I was or the people that I was staying with. And that was just fine and dandy with me.
Oh well I keep telling myself, this too shall pass. And I know it will. I am determined that my boys will be happy, healthy and safe so it's worth it to be here for them. It's just sometimes, I really really want to go home.)

Don't think he'll be calling anytime soon! :)
I love Seether's music and I just stumbled upon this picture. I just have to say... WAY to go Shaun!

Shaun Morgan
for The Dirty Side of Glamour
Crazy is all I can say
This was A crazy shoot this is Shaun Morgan from the band Seether if this photo doesnt make sense let me break it down for you…Everyone has heard the song “Call me When your sober” This song is about Amy Lee’s former boyfriend Shaun Morgan who you see below They broke up and she wrote the song about him check out seether on myspace www.myspace.com/seether
I have to say out of everyone I have shot for my new book Shaun was down to get the craziest so far thanks to Shaun for being such a madd man…
Seether Frontman Won't Respond To Amy Lee's Attack: 'I Just Refuse To Lower Myself To That Level'
You won't hear Shaun Morgan's side of the 'Call Me When You're Sober' story on October 23's Finding Beauty in Negative Spaces.
By: Chris Harris
Most of us would love to have a hit song written about us. Seether's Shaun Morgan isn't one of those people.
But that didn't stop his ex-girlfriend, Evanescence's Amy Lee, from penning "Call Me When You're Sober," a tune she later admitted was specifically written about her relationship with Morgan. And the timing couldn't have been worse for Lee's damning revelation, coming just weeks after Morgan checked himself into rehab for treatment of "a combination of substances." His rehab stint, coincidentally, began on the very same day the Evanescence track was delivered to the nation's rock radio stations.
As you might expect, Morgan wasn't thrilled with Lee's public airing of the pair's dirty laundry. For the last year, the song has "followed me around and haunted me," he said, and it chipped away at his reputation.
"People would say to me, 'Yeah, man, I know what you're going through,' and I was like, 'No, I don't think you do,' " Morgan explained. " 'Your ex-girlfriend didn't write a song about you, that millions of people have heard, saying you're a bad guy. As soon as that happens, buddy, come up and tell me you know what I'm going through.' "
Now, clean and sober, Morgan and his band are returning with their third studio outing, Finding Beauty in Negative Spaces, which is set for an October 23 release. But don't expect the LP to contain a response track.
"There isn't necessarily a response as there's a lament," the singer for the South African rockers said. "I was bummed out. I was really upset that she would say and do those things. In any relationship, I don't think it's right to say and do those things when people break up, and she obviously felt the need to go out there and make me sound like a complete a--hole. What can I do? I just refuse to lower myself to that level. But it was a painful thing and it got me down ? people coming up to me on the street and referring to that song. But I didn't feel the need to write back and be mean."
I am alive, Really!
Yes I'm alive. No I'm not online very much at all. At least not lately. Lots of GOOD & BAD, yes both in all caps, have been happening, someday I'll be back around :) Until then... LOVE & HUGS!

Reason #3,256 Dave Grohl is HOT!
Rockin' with the Foos! This video gets INTENSE at about 3:30, check it out!
Foo Fighters ~The Pretender
Keep you in the dark
You know they all pretend
Keep you in the dark
And so it all began
Send in your skeletons
Sing as their bones go marching in... again
The need you buried deep
The secrets that you keep are ever ready
Are you ready?
I'm finished making sense
Done pleading ignorance
That whole defense
Spinning infinity, boy
The wheel is spinning me
It's never-ending, never-ending
Same old story
What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one in your place
You're the pretender
What if I say I will never surrender?
x2
In time or so i'm told
I'm just another soul for sale... oh, well
The page is out of print
We are not permanent
We're temporary, temporary
Same old story
What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one in your place
You're the pretender
What if I say I will never surrender?
x2
I'm the voice inside your head
You refuse to hear
I'm the face that you have to face
Mirrored in your stare
I'm what's left, I'm what's right
I'm the enemy
I'm the hand that will take you down
Bring you to your knees
So who are you?
Yeah, who are you?
Yeah, who are you?
Yeah, who are you?
Keep you in the dark
You know they all pretend
What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one in your place
You're the pretender
What if I say I will never surrender?

What if I say I'm not like the others?

What if I say I'm not just another one in your place
(You know they all... pretend)
You're the pretender
What if I say I will never surrender?

So who are you?
Yeah, who are you?
Yeah, who are you?
Daughtry - it's not over
Chris Daughtry - It's Not Over lyrics
I was blown away
What could I say
It all seemed to make sense.
You've taken away everything
That I can't do without.
I try to see the good in life.
But good things in life are hard to find.
I'll blow it away, blow it away
Can we make this something good?
(well i'll try to do it right this time around)
let's start over,
I'll try to do it right this time around
It's not over
Cause a part of me is dead and in the ground.
This love is killing me
But you're the only one
It's not over.
I've taken all I can take
And I cannot wait
We've wasted too much time
Being strong and holding on
Can't let it bring us down
My life with you means everything
So I won't give up that easily
I'll blow it away, blow it away
Can we make this something good?
Cause it's all misunderstood
(Well I'll try to do it right this time around)
Let's start over,
I'll try to do it right this time around
It's not over
Cause a part of me is dead and in the ground.
This love is killing me
But you're the only one
It's not over.
We can't let this get away
Let it out, let it out
Don't get caught up in yourself
Let it out.
Let's start over
We'll try to do to it right this time around
Its not over
Cause a part of me is dead and in the ground.
This love is killing me
But you're the only one
It's not over.
Lets start over
Its not over
Yeah yeah
This love is killing me
But you're the only one
It's not over

Words of Wisdom
The Invitation
By Oriah Mountain Dreamer
(A Native American Elder)
It doesn't interest me what you do for a living. I want to know what you ache for, and if you dare to dream of meeting in your heart's longing.
It doesn't interest me how old you are. I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool for love, for your dreams, for the adventure of being alive.
It doesn't interest me what planets are squaring your moon. I want to know if you have touched the center of your own sorrow, if you have been opened by life's betrayals or have become shriveled and closed from fear of further pain.
I want to know if you can sit in pain, mine or your own, without moving to hide it or fade it or fix it.
I want to know if you can be with joy, mine or your own,if you can dance with wildness and let the ecstasy fill you to the tip of your fingers and toes without cautioning us to be careful, be realistic, or to remember the limitations of being human.
It doesn't interest me if the story you're telling me is true. I want to know if you can disappoint another to be true to yourself; if you can bear the accusation of betrayal and not betray your own soul.
I want to know if you can be faithful and therefore be trustworthy.
I want to know if you can see beauty even when it is not pretty every day, and if you can source your life from God's presence.
I want to know if you can live with failure, yours and mine, and still stand on the edge of a lake and shout to the silver of the full moon, "Yes!"
It doesn't interest me to know where you live or how much money you have.
I want to know if you can get up after the night of grief and despair, weary and bruised to the bone, and do what needs to be done for the children.
It doesn't interest me who you are, how you came to be here.
I want to know if you will stand in the center of the fire with me and not shrink back.
It doesn't interest me where or what or with whom you have studied.
I want to know what sustains you from the inside when all else falls away.
I want to know if you can be alone with yourself, and if you truly like the company you keep in the empty moments.

Aspie Quiz
My results:
Stable version, release 2.2 (2007-08-14)
Thank you for filling out this questionnaire.
Your Aspie AS score: 162 of 200
Your neurotypical NT (non-autistic) score: 33 of 200
You are very likely an Aspie
(note: I have tested as high as 189 out of 200 on similar tests)
"Cure Ignorance project from
To ensure that others will respect and value our diversity, instead of calling for our extermination by way of prenatal testing and eugenic abortion, we must refute these stereotypes. "
For additional links about Asperger's/Autism Spectrum check this page out:
Or these ones:
A quote from Jared of crazymeds.org that I like, " There isn't an NT inside of us waiting to get out, there's just a pretend NT painted on top of us so the child
abuse would just stop."

One of the most annoying webpages ever
Click the title and you will see for yourself! By annoying I don't mean the content, which is fine. I mean the graphics on the page itself. As you scroll down the page you can see:
2 Flying Flags
2 Reader boards with 2 moving stars ~Large & Small
3 Flashing borders
1 pop-up box suggesting proper viewing size for this page
3 Flying Birds
1 Dancing Spinning Nun
2 trees morphing through seasonal changes in color with attached reader board
and last but not least
A sparkling diamond rose
I am almost positive that most of these things, if not all of them have nothing to do with the content of the page itself, which is actually a Russian Steam Bath. I have no idea what a Russian Steam Bath is though because I never made it past the awful graphics.
