Sleep Talking Man

It's almost 4AM, but because I am cracking up so much right now, I need to share this with everyone.  This couple was featured on Yahoo news a few days ago and it was just so full of 'WIN' that I had to go check it out for myself online.  I found their blog and have been cracking up with every single entry.  No joke.

A British man, a voice activated recorder, & a plethora of dreams make for some great entertainment.  He talks in his sleep and oh man you simply can't make this stuff up.  The best part is that they put up some actual audio of him sleep talking.  It just adds so much more when you hear it.  I know I'll have to share it with peter in the morning.  

I don't know think I could ever sleep if Peter talked like this in his sleep.  I would be laughing so much, I just wouldn't be able to contain myself and relax enough to get some sleep.  So go check it out!  I've had many many laughs thus far.

Lastly, I read this article tonight and it's just so super cute I have to share it :)  I have a soft spot in my heart for dogs.

News For Today

I've been catching up on world news for the past couple of days.  It's been a while since I've read more than a handful of articles.  New's hasn't changed much though.  The stories are still disturbing, saddening, & heartbreaking.  So many people have been displaced.  So many are fighting wars as we sit here in the comfort of our own homes-- a luxury the masses would die to have. Hmm.. What can we do about it?  That's probably a good thing to ponder.  I truly applaud those who are out there actually making a difference in people's lives. Just a few stories I've read recently:

• Girl, 12, forced to marry dies giving birth
  
• Flour giveaway turns into deadly stampede
  
• WSOC: Pregnant teen shot, killed at bus stop
  
• Groom killed in wreck on wedding day
  
• Officers put on leave in Rihanna photo leak
  
• Kanye West grabs Swift's mic at MTV awards
  
• Body found in wall may be missing Yale student
  

Some of these stories are so backwards.  They simply make no sense.  A man who organizes a giveaway of flour at his compound to HELP the poor is ARRESTED because he didn't notify the authorities.  I guess good deeds come at a price these days?  A pregnant 15 year old get's shot in the head intentionally.  A good Christian man is killed on his way to his wedding.  A Yale graduate student, who was to be married YESTERDAY, was most likely murdered and stuffed into the walls at her University.

And yes, Kanye West, you are an ass.  You have officially won the Douchebag of the Year award!  In your own words, "How could you be so heartless?"  Poor Taylor.  It was HER moment.  She's completely undeserving of your lack of respect  & self-righteousness.  I hope you feel the backlash of your actions.

Perhaps I should just stop reading the news for a little bit.  I just get really upset at times.

Weatherman Was Right

Sunrise, 4 years ago.. one of my favorite photos.

Majority of my photos on flickr need to be found doing a manual search since my "Pro" account expired months ago. Thats pretty much when I stopped using flickr as well. Publicly, only 200 of my photos are displayed because of the restrictions on basic accounts. I do have hundreds of other photos on there though :)

Anyhow, for once the weatherman was right! I took the dogs out early this morning and it was raining. "Arbis Ti Gracia" (Ilocano) as I'd call it or Showers Of Blessings. I love the smell of rain, especially in the morning.

Tonight I'm having dinner with Layne guys at their new house in Loveland. It'll be nice to spend some time with friends. I'm going to make my cheesecake cookie cupcakes, but I didn't know I only had one box of cream cheese at home. Damnit. I knew I should've bought more. I cant afford to drive again since I have a stick shift. What shall I do in this little predicament? I have a few hours to figure it out. Haha.

Currently, Lexi is sitting at the top of the stairs trying to get my attention. She's telling me she needs to go to the bathroom. Sometimes, I despise how smart she is. A dog that tells you what she wants and is persistent at it until she gets it whether it be needing water, food, attention, or using bathroom. What she's come to understand in these past 2 years boggles my mind. Lol. The newest thing she's learned, "Lexi, where's daddy?" Haha! Its too cute. When I ask her, she'll immediately look towards the door to see if Peter's coming. If she thinks he's almost at the door she starts going up the stairs to look for him. Perhaps having 2 smart dogs is quite entertaining most of the time.

News I've read so far today, will read more later. Too many about death right now:

• Suspect in pregnant Marine's death not father of unborn child
  
• Boy found buried in NM park still unidentified
