Change *clink clink*
So I've been looking around and trying to find a place that might carry Euros with pre-punched holes through the middle for a few ideas/projects that I've had on the back burner for a little bit.
Hmmmmm not so lucky in that department lol. I know a local story that I *should* be able to get the coins at or if not could order them in but I'll have to check with them to be 100% sure. I also have an idea for where I might be able to get holes punched in the coins... less sure about that but it is a real possibility.
Anyway should be fun if I can get all the things I need to get started on them.
cheers my ducky dears

It is called 8 Apparel!
LOL I know what I'm getting Paul for Christmas! Oh snap have I not come across something this funny since I got Paul This t-shirt as part of his Christmas as a jab and tongue-in-check lol at LDS male culture a Christmas or two ago. And guess what his P-day tees from me will be *insert EVIL older sister Grinch like grin here* MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Some of my favorite tees:
*Must plaster kid brother with funny t-shirt that make other wonder about his sanity (all the while knowing they should be questioning mine instead)*
MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!111

If your not reading "What Mormons Like"
...then you are taking yourself to serious.
From their mission statement: "Helping Mormons Laugh at Themselves Because They Feel Guilty Mocking Others."
You have to be able to laugh at yourself lol plus it is good clean fun to start each morning. Give it a go and get laughing.
*goes off chortling to self*

Just musing and wondering.
So these are my random thoughts for the day and your $0.02 are all welcome.
So I was reading through Sunday's PostSecrets and there was one about a person that went through chemo and was not able to have kids and how they felt unimportant to the human race now. So It made me wonder would I (or any of you) marry a person that you knew could not have kids if you loved them? Would you stayed married to a person that could not have kids after you just got married (like you found out less then 6 months to a year after you got married)? If you had been trying for a long time like years and found out that they could not? Is it that important to have kids for you?
And to the people that say they would just adopt... well what if you where to poor to adopt? Then would you still stay married to the person?
Ok what if you where the person that was the infertile one? How would you feel? What would you say and do?
I don't know how I would feel personally. I think I would feel like I let them down but I would love my husband first and kids are a secondary thing in a marriage (albeit important in many ways). I still don't know how I feel about adoption. I know I sound like a bigot but I want kids that look like kids I would have. I guess that would also change if I married outside of my heritage and background. There are also other factors like how my husband's family would feel that I 'cheated' them out of grand kids and the family name being passed down. If he was the only male child or the only one that was going to have kids in his family or such. Then there are cultural and religious pressures to deal with as well.
So much to think about. What do you think about it?
On a similar note it always make me wonder when I see those young LDS couples (and others I'm not picking on anyone here ^_^) that have not been married even nine - ten months to a couple years and they already have a kid/s. Do they even really know each other? I want a year or more to know my new husband before I even think about kids. A new husband, a new life, a new living situation, a new house/apt and so very much more and now they already have another new little life to deal with and fit into this new life of theirs. (not that kids are bad so don't think that I'm saying that people just musing out load here) I just think "...first comes love then comes marriage...." and when the times is right and you both know each other as husband/wife, friend, lover and even gotten in whoppers of fight and know how to work through pain and anger and still know that you will always care for the other... and have the time and money and stable environment and only then "....then comes the baby in the baby carriage".
So yeah that is my brain leak for the morning.

Happy Joy Joy
So I dunno why but I just feel at peace and happy for no reason at all.
I was just going along and checking my blog/ fav sites online when the thought just came out of left field and hit me that I really am happy.
My life is not perfect or any of that kind of mish-mash but I really am just happy with how things are going and what is happening right now.
Sometimes we find joy and peace in the hecktive-ness of our lives and I've just had a taste of that lol. Odd but a nice feeling.
I hope all you my friends both far and near are feeling some kinda of joy and bliss this week.
*bops to the beat*
EDIT:
Oh more bliss I found another mix that is close to the one I was looking for lol! Talk about joy ^____^
Fragma - Embrace Me (Duderstadt Remix)

mp3 I can't find thee
I can't find the mp3 (to buy or free) for this certain mix of this song...
The mix is this one:
Fragma - Embrace Me (Doboy Ibiza Vocal Mix)
It is a DIFFERENT mix of the song in this youtube vid.
The mix in the youtube video is "Fragma - Embrace Me (Wippenberg Remix)" of the song "Embrace Me" by the Fragma Project (a German dance project) made up of four people.
It drives me nut when I can't find something so I lay down and grovel for a helping hand lol.
Tomorrow's I want to touch on Geocaching variation but I'm to dead for that right now.

So I told some of you about how I slipped on the wet leaves going down the front porch steps the other day and fell off the last couple steps and did the splits XD and then landed on my left knee and left foot.
Only thing hurt other then my pride lol was my left knee that is all better and my left foot... still ouchie.

ManDingo For the WIN!
(And if you don't like the title well all I have to say is you are on my Journal and it is morning so what do you expect XD)
To the rest of those right winged people better luck with a McBush in four years *sob* lol
So I find it funny that Utah pretends to be red but if you cut them they bleed blue (in other words they voted McCain *red* but they voted mostly Democratic *blue* for the local state politics).
Anyway in other news our local props 1 and 2 passed so that will really help the Zoo and the aviary. As far as California's news prop 8 passed as well.
I'm rather happy and or not surprised with the out come of most of the election results. Both local and nationally.

*NOM NOM NOM*
Oh man after checking the lines at the polls me and John hit up a new little Czech cafe on 9th South called "Johnny Kolache's".
Oh man and do they have good Kolaches! I like the ham and cheese one, very nummy! To bad they did not have any pastry ones for sale yet (we hit them up a little after 7am).
It was already pouring when we got down there. So the storm is well on its way and it is still raining right now.

New beats for the day
Everything Is Borrowed - The Streets
That's Not My Name - The Ting Tings
1,2,3,4 - Plain White T's
That's Not My Name - The Ting Tings
1,2,3,4 - Plain White T's
Do your part - VOTE!
So just reiterating that we all need to come out and vote! Even more so if you are young. Lets hear your voice this election!
Anyway I thought that I would toss up my favorite US propaganda piece since we have been bombarded for so many months leading up to today for the elections.
First off the most iconic and recognizable one:
This image was in all reality a miss labeling of the character of Rosie. It was one of the many images that was around during the labor crises during WWII to entice women to help during the labor shortage from the lack of factory workers during the war.
And now the Original piece that was first called "Rosie the Riveter":
I love how she has her feet crushing a copy of Mein Kampf! And her look is great! I just love this version of Rosie!
And a Time Magazine cover that is a modern take on this image to run along with their article about teens volunteering:
Anyway like these images are try to say in their timelessness get out there and do your part today!

T-minus 1 day
So do you know where your polling place is?
I've heard that lines are going to be upwards of 3 hours long in waits..... >.> gee fun. I think I'll go before it opens and see how long the lines are and hope for the best.
So I think I'll only be voting for two GOPs this go around. Which ones I'll just let you puzzle over that.
Anyway I'm interested to see what way the state swings this time. I bet they will die if it goes blue. I mean what is the last time if there ever was a time that the state was a blue state?
Oh well. In any case get off your butt into the falling snow (coming just for you to make your voting day oh so much better ya know) and cast your vote. Cause you know someone has to negate my vote ya know... right? lol

Are we human or are we dancer?
Just thought that I would throw up this youtube video to this great little song from my last post!
Human - The Killers
You know you want to click me ^_^
By the way the video was shot in Utah. Kinda interesting.
Been hearing it on x96 and just love the chorus (a dancer is a puppet... are you a puppet? Taken from the disparaging comment made by Hunter S. Thompson about how America was raising a generation of dancers.)
Lyrics:
I did my best to notice
When the call came down the line
Up to the platform of surrender
I was brought but I was kind
And sometimes get nervous
When I see an open door
Close your eyes
Clear your heart
Cut the cord
Are we Human?
Or are we Dancer?
My sign is vital
My hands are cold
And I'm on my knees
Looking for the answer
Are we Human?
Or are we Dancer?
Pay my respects to grace and virtue
Send my condolences to good
Give my regards to soul and romance
They always did the best they could
And so long to devotion
You taught me everything I know
Wave goodbye
Wish me well
You got to let me go
Are we Human?
Or are we Dancer?
My sign is vital
My hands are cold
And I'm on my knees
Looking for the answers
Are we Human?
Or are we Dancer?
Will your system be alright
When you dream of home tonight?
There is no message we're receiving
Let me know is your heart still beating?
Are we Human?
Or are we Dancer?
My sign is vital
My hands are cold
And I'm on my knees
Looking for the answer
You got to let me know
Are we Human?
Or are we Dancer?
My sign is vital
My hands are cold
And I'm on my knees
Looking for the answer
Are we Human
Or are we Dancer?
Are we Human?
Or are we Dancer?
Are we Human
Or are we Dancer?

Another book for the list (and a another show to miss...)
So I just saw another ad for what looks like a neat show that alas I will not be able to see right now. It is on Sci-fi channel and I lack the illegal hooks-ups for cable lol.
Anyway the Show is called "Legend of the Seeker" and from the fallowing two youtube vids I think that if you like fantasy (LotRs, HP, Golden Compass etc.) then you might just like this as well.
Trailer:
And 10 min. show preview: Well worth the 10 mins in my POV...
Wow now that I'm hyped and depressed that I can't watch the two hour season premier tomorrow I should let you know that they have the first 30 mins to download off iTunes free lol!
But I guess that I can take salice in the fact that this awesome looking show is based off of books in the "The Sword of Truth" series by Terry Goodkind (11 books in the series ^_^).
*sigh* reminds me that I need to add the cable series of "EarthSea" to netflix (also based on a book XD). From the trailer on Netflix it looks kinda like HP set in the time of Arthur.
Anyone want to get me something for my b-day or Christmas has a few ideas now what I want lol. My free time reading list just keeps on growing and growing ^_^
