Pictures, pictures, pictures!

Ah, Blogger is letting me put pictures back in!!! This makes me so happy! The wonderful picture on the left is my Pussy magnet, from Violet and Uganda, picked out by Uganda, from the Hustler store in LA. It's just wonderful!!! And I think it was so sweet that Uganda remembered how much I loved cats and picked this out based on that.

And the other thing they bought me was a pack of condoms, which I don't think I'll want to open unless it's an emergency, just because it looks so cool! Well, I am curious about the triple-ribbed, so I will open it, but since there's no one who I even want to fuck me, it may be a while. I really like having the word "Hustler" on my condoms - I am the coolest!!! Thanks to Violet, of course!!!!

And now, a picture from the Son Volt concert, which I mistakenly called Sun Volt in my last post - and I KNOW Asparagus caught that and didn't approve! All my pictures were pretty blurry, but I think this is the best one.

And now, Simon and Millie, who are Florida and Asparagus's cats, are going to make their debut onto this blog!! Because this picture of Simon (the part Siamese) cracks me up! The pretty green sweater was bought for Millie (the orange one), to keep her warm in the winter. Seeing it barely fit on Simon is hilarious - he looks like he's wearing a muscle t-shirt!!! And little Millie, to the right, was very happy in her box. Simon had come around to investigate once he saw her sitting in the box, and after some tense seconds of ears back, Millie struck and hit him, and he walked away. So she was enjoying her win! And this picture doesn't do justice to how tiny this box was! Cats can fit, and semi-comfortably, into the tiniest of spots, it's just amazing!!! ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

No one can love us as we love ourselves. No one can take away our beauty and our dignity when we own those things. To me confident=beautiful. :: CeeCi ♥ I'd been feeling a little blue (for no particular reason) when I began thinking about things like attention, age and body image. Suddenly, it washed over me. I see people looking at me and I see them reacting. I began thinking about the times I notice the attention and realized its the days I'm strutting, the days I'm open and holding my head up. This got me to thinking further. How I perceive myself is what I show to others...People don't realize it, but they show the world everything about themselves in the way they move and act, in the words they say and the way they say them. A little confidence can lead to a lot of confidence. :: CeeCi ♥ When we believe in ourselves the world is an entirely different place and our place in it feels right and happy and healthy. :: CeeCi ♥ Remember that something incredibly wonderful is always possible! ♥ There are moments that are wonderful, if you let them be. ♥ Being distrustful put me in a very lonely place, a place filled with doubt and hypervigilance. I'm grateful I've learned to trust again, because in learning to do it, I learned to trust myself. :: CeeCi ♥ We're all a work in progress. I believe we will be until the day our lives end. Why fight it? I love the changes I experience. Some are certainly easier and more enjoyable than others, yet I wouldn't stop the process for any thing in the world. :: CeeCi ♥ We may run, walk, stumble, drive, or fly, but let us never lose sight of the reason for the journey, or miss the chance to see a rainbow on the way :: Gloria Gaither ♥ Happiness comes of the capacity to feel deeply, to enjoy simply, to think freely, to risk life, to be needed :: Storm Jameson ♥ Love is everything. It is the reason we are here, and the wonder we take with us wherever we go. ♥ Courage doesn't always roar. Sometimes courage is the little voice at the end of the day that says I'll try again tomorrow :: Mary Anne Radmacher ♥ Just live in the moment, the moment you're in. Don't live two days from now. Don't live two hours in advance. Live now. And appreciate what you have now. Don't go any further. You have this moment. This second. Breathe it. Enjoy it. Live in it. :: Open Eyes ♥ Leap, and the net will appear. ♥ I've learnt that when we express our deepest feelings, even though we may stammer or be unable to find the right words, it always pays. It pays to be authentic. ♥ There are as many nights as days, and the one is just as long as the other in the year's course. Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and the word 'happy' would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness :: Carl Jung ♥ I believe that imagination is stronger than knowledge, myth is more potent than history, dreams are more powerful than facts, hope always triumphs over experience, laughter is the cure for grief, love is stronger than death :: Robert Fulghum ♥ You must learn day by day, year by year, to broaden your horizon. The more things you love, the more you are interested in, the more you enjoy, the more you are indignant about, the more you have left when anything happens. :: Ethel Barrymore ♥ Your vision will become clear only when you look into your heart. Who looks outside, dreams. Who looks inside, awakens. :: Carl Jung ♥ I will try to be as honest as I can with myself. That is all that is required of me. I'll keep admitting and opening my hidden box of fears, hurts and insecurities, again and again, until I know each one of them by their first name. :: Anu ♥ It struck me that there is amazing beauty everywhere. Does it matter where you are or who we're encountering? There is magic all around us. The fact that we're alive, the fact that we're living in this place and time. The fact that we've met the people we've met, all of it, every bit of it, only contributes to the wonder that is life. :: CeeCi ♥ No pessimist ever discovered the secrets of the starts, or sailed to an uncharted land, or opened a new heaven to the human spirit. :: Helen Keller ♥ Half of doing anything is believing that you can. ♥ Often God has to shut a door in our face, so that he can subsequently open the door through which he wants us to go. :: Catherine Marshall ♥ Even if it burns a little low at times, the secret of life is to always keep the flame of hope alive. ♥ The three grand essentials of happiness are something to do, someone to love, and something to hope for. ♥ Some people will say that you are going the wrong way, when it is simply a way of your own. ♥ Nobody cares if you can't dance well. Just get up and dance. Great dancers are not great because of their technique, they are great because of their passion. :: Martha Graham ♥ Life is a series of new beginnings, and in every ordinary moment there are a thousand miracles to behold. ♥ Don't let the approval of others determine your belief in yourself. ♥ When it's all said and done, when all the opinions have been uttered, preached, shouted, and shared, there is only one thing we can do: From this moment on...love. ♥ When you're stuck in a spiral, to change all aspects of the spin you need only to change one thing. :: Christina Baldwin ♥ You have to look for the joy. Look for the light of God that is hitting your life, and you will find sparkles you didn't know were there. ♥ Be the change you wish to see in the world... :: Gandhi ♥ Life is not about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself. ♥ We each have only a limited amount of time here. We have to do more with it - pay attention, explore, be open to all of life. Because we have only one chance, we have to make life seem longer than it really is. :: Viggo Mortensen ♥ Risk more than others think is safe. Care more than others think is wise. Dream more than others think is practical. Expect more than others think is possible. :: Cadet Maxim ♥ Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore! Dream! Discover! ♥ What would you attempt to do if you knew you could not fail? :: Unknown ♥ To love and be loved is to feel the sun from both sides. :: David Viscott, M.D ♥ Right now it feels like:...no dream will ever remain unfulfilled...no desire will ever remain unanswered...no tear goes unnoticed and no effort wasted...the hills are alive and so are we...each moment is fresh and waiting to happen...and there will be garbage like situations all around...but it is upto us to light mud lamps in it...and glow in our own acceptance and appreciations... :: Anu ♥ I struggle with not feeling like I'm good enough at times. Usually, its because I'm pushing it too hard and have depleted my reserve. Yet, I know without a shadow of a doubt that no matter how heavy or thin, how young or old I appear to others it's what I feel on the inside that glows through. If I could give every person on this planet just one gift it would be the unwavering knowledge that they are beautiful and worthy of every good thing the universe holds. :: CeeCi ♥ It's easier to buy into the negative things we conjure about ourselves than the positive things. Knowing that is the first step towards changing the thoughts that keep us unhappy. With time moving forward, why stay trapped in the past? All we have is right here and right now, I intend to make the most of it! :: CeeCi
