Site of the Day: MonthlyInfo.com

Years ago, a dear friend and I were blessed to be able to work together. Actually, we met at work and became friends. (Sorry. Am I *already* getting off-track?) Anyhow, organized person that I am, or used to be, I would keep track of a certain... ahem... cycle for her. Not that I'm a nosy freak or anything, but her cycle just happened to coincide with mine, and... anyway!! TMI? It's a female thing, so get over it...

Anyhow, she kindly let me know that I've been replaced. It only took her seven years or so. So at least I know that I'm not easily replaced. :) So, in the interest of promoting female empowerment and menstrual cycle organization (not that they can be easily organized, but at least you can keep track of them)... I present to you...


You'll be pleased to know that you can also make notations on whatever date you choose, as well. For example, if you wanted to remember that you ate at Razoo's on Saturday and then at Lupita's Taqueria on Wednesday. Very helpful if you're keeping a food diary. Or whatever. So there you go, ladies. Knock yourselves out!

Video of the Day: As If

I'm not a very outgoing person. I have a select few people in whom I confide, in whom I can trust. Not that I'm anti-social. I'm not. Well, not really... I love people. I always have. It's just difficult getting to know people again after so many years of enredandome in my marriage, my family. Now, I'm without the husband, without the family. On my own... yet not on my own.

I have amazing friends who have helped me in so many ways. My friends tell me that I'm strong. Am I really? I've got to be. It must stem from the many, many prayers and supplications that I've sent up to God for the past ten months. There's no way I was this strong before. God answers prayers. Not in the way we expect. Not on our own time. We're all on his time schedule, no?

So, how does this relate to the video of the day? Well, I've decided to rely on this strength and just let things take their course. I won't stress over little things. Won't stress about other people, what they think, what they do. That's all them. It has nothing to do with me. Now, enjoy a bit of Sara Evans and have a great day! :)



I love the way you wear those worn out blue jeans
walking all around in the big sunshine
Baby let me believe that you're perfect
at least for a little while

You don't have to tell me what you're thinking
You can keep all that to yourself
Baby we got such a good thing going
don't show me that you're someone else

Cause Im acting as if
this blue sky's never gonna rain down on me
I'm telling myself
This true love's never gonna leave me lonely
Unless there's something I've missed I'm acting as if

We don't have to have a conversation
Baby don't ya think it's going fine
We don't need to send out invitations
to tell the world that you're mine

Cause Im acting as if
this blue sky's never gonna rain down on me
I'm telling myself
This true love's never gonna leave me lonely
Unless there's something I've missed I'm acting as if

As if your sweet kiss is never gonna fade away
And the way you look at me will never change...

Video of the Day: All I Have

Sometimes there's a song that just hits you. It can represent however you're feeling that particular moment. Here's one that affected me this morning. I had to keep replaying it. Don't worry, feelings change. Songs as well. There will surely be a different song tomorrow! :)

So what song was on my radio this morning? All I Have. The video is just gorgeous, although it looks a bit too chilly for my taste. Remind me to never go to New York when it's cold! Maybe in the summer?


Stop playing, you gaming, I got to leave you alone

... Cuz I'm good
Holding down my spot
And I'm good
Reppin' the girls on the block
And I'm good
I got this thing on lock
So without me you'll be fine, right?

... Ain't nothin' you can say to me that can change my mind,
I gotta let you go now,
and nothin will ever be the same, so just be on your way,
Go ahead and do your thing now,
and there's no more to explain to me, ya know?
I know ya game
I'm not feelin' what you do
(and I'm good)
so I'm bouncing and I'm out, son
(I'm good)
I gotta leave you alone... yeah, yeah...

New Blog!!

Everyone (of which there is perhaps only one or two)... I've started up a new blog. I'm no longer the crafty (as in arts and crafts), cooking (as in the kitchen with food) person that I once was. This new blog will perhaps reflect some of new interests. Don't worry, though. I'm pretty sure this is all just a phase and I will still continue to pop up on Loca the Cat occasionally. Please come visit and see GG2GO to see if you like it. :) Have a great day!!

The Cutest Shoes in the World

Look at this! Isn't it adorable??

This is the Queen of Hearts Mary Jane, available on the Kohl's website. Please tell me why I'm even looking at shoes. This is not the thing one would wear to work everyday. Well, not normal people anyway. I'm saying this while I sit in my office wearing a Bowling for Soup rocker t-shirt, a torn pair of jeans with ragged hems and a homemade safety-pinned BFS patch, and a big ole pair of thick-heeled clubbish boots. In an office.

On second thought, these mary janes might be the perfect thing to wear to work. An improvement, maybe? Now, if I could only find them a bit cheaper than $51.99 plus $4.99 for shipping and who-knows-how-much for tax. I checked online and could only find a similar pair of flats for $20-ish. But no. I want the cute mjs instead. Sigh. Maybe after Halloween? Apparently these are costume shoes. I have no idea why. I'd wear them to work and.. Oh, hold on. I only go to work. Never mind!! I'd wear them to work. lol.

Video of the Day: Con los Ojos Cerrados

Ah, Youtube. How I love thee. And how thee dost distract me from my homework. I really shouldn't be on here at all. It all started with a Bowling for Soup song. Then it somehow ended up moving on to Twilight homages. Now it's on this, my video of the day by Los Aliados de la Sierra. Yeah, I'm easily distracted. Well, here's the vid. Enjoy.


Todos quieren que me aleje de élla
que es de lo peor y no me quiere bien
dicen que me envuelve el cerebro
con el fin de enredarse en mi cuerpo.
Debo confesar que cuando élla me besa
el mundo da vueltas dentro de mi cabeza
cierro los ojos y siento su aliento,
mi sangre quema cualquier pensamiento
y le creo, le creo, le creo,
le creo cuando dice te quiero,
le creo que es la mujer mazZ buena
le creo que la luna es de queso
y si el me diera otro beso
que mas da si me miente
yo...le creo

Con los ojos cerrados iré tras de ella
Con los ojos cerrados siempre lo amare
Con los ojos cerrados yo confío en ella
Con los ojos cerrados yo le quiero creer
(SE REPITE)
Le voy a creer!

y nunca te dejare chiquitita¡¡
no me importa lo que digan¡¡
y echele y echele mis aliados de la sierra...

Ellos dicen que yo no puedo ver
Que el amor me ciega cuando estoy con el...
No me fijo que el no tiene dinero
Dicen que el es malo y que yo soy su juego

Debo confesar que cuando élla me besa
el mundo da vueltas dentro de mi cabeza
cierro los ojos y siento su aliento
mi sangre quema cualquier pensamiento
y le creo, le creo, le creo,
le creo cuando dice te quiero
le creo que es la mujer mas buena
le creo que la luna es de queso
y si el me diera otro beso
que mas da si me miente
yo...le creo

Con los ojos cerrados iré tras de ella
Con los ojos cerrados siempre lo amare
Con los ojos cerrados yo confío en ella
Con los ojos cerrados yo le quiero creer
(SE REPITE)
Le voy a creer!

Aventura en Musica, Si No en Amor

Whatever happened to my wonderful plans for a fun, informative, interesting blog? Instead it seems that all I do is post videos. Well, not today. Nosirree. Today I'm posting a link to AOL Musica Zona Estreno. It's not a video. It's a wonderful link where you can listen to Aventura's latest CD. Ah... Aventura. Yeah. When he finds out. Sorry! Couldn't resist.

Anyhow, hope you enjoy the music. Until next time...
