Forbidden Surrender (Surrender, #1) by Priscilla West
Book 1 on the year.
I have become a real fan on the erotic romance novels. They are funny. They are ridiculous. They are short.

New Years Resolution
I have made a resolution that is quite familiar to me.
Don't sabotage yourself?
I normally make smaller new years goals but I didn't bother this year.
I hope to do more things that makes me happy this year.
I will not lie to myself and say I will blog because I wont but I am going to attempt to use this location as a place to keep track on the books that have read and maybe a little bit of a review.

I give up
I will stop lying to myself. I will not blog. Seriously no one doesn't it anymore.
Its still useful to find things I wrote about a long time ago.

Reasons why people must have boyfriends
My number one reason (tonight) for having a boyfriend is that they make sure you eat something other than wine for dinner (unless thats what they are also having for dinner).
Applications are being accepted.

January Roundup
I have to confess that none of my new years goals have succeeded in January but there is still hope for February.
I started reading A Casual Vacancy by JK Rowling - It didn't capture me like I thought it would. I will finish it but now I have to pick a new book for February. I just hope that at the end of the month I don't have 12 books that I need to finish.
I haven't been writing wither. On the goals front I am a mess but I did have a lot of fun in the month of January.
Highlights
Can you ask for recommendations on a masturbation white (wine)??
I got to see friends that I don;'t see very often.
Plus much more?

this is harder than I though
For the last few days I have been struggling with what to write about. Typing a paragraph or two then deleting it.
Its all too personal or not personal enough. It's all too serious or to frivolous.
I have been trying desperately to sit and write some things about balance. I can't seem to get my grasp on it. I think I need some of it but don't know where to get it.
If you know a place let me know.
Well anyway I need some inspiration and for now I will leave this very sad post.

What a glass of wine can do.
the answers is wonders. I'll sit back drink my 3rd or 4th glasses of Conquista Malbec and share some thoughts.
First thought, I am the worst typist so a few glasses of wine in sure won't help.
Second thought, I have awesome wine glasses.
I can't count continue to count so let's get to it. I have to think about what I will spend this blog time writing about, I am sure it will be wine and tv shows because those are the things I find relaxing and as much as I would like to write about wine I have something else I would like to share.
It has to do with one of my New Year's goals: writing more.
So I use writing as a outlet for the stuff in my life. I write stuff that is not for other's consumption and things that one day I could share. I have a few problems that will hinder me getting me to the "I wrote a pop culture phenomenon book" status. The stage fright that held me back from being an awesome actress I have for letting people read my work. I have doubts that it will never be good enough (boo to tat lack of confidence). the other thing is that I would actually have to write. To get to the other things I would actually have to write, in a creative manner.
Over the last few days I have been thinking "what would I write about", I read, I have ideas but how do you get from 5 pages to 200 pages. How do you let it go? I have enough trouble with web pages.
So I guess I have a little confidence building to do (or wine drinking) and writing to do.
The first story, there is a jock, that was abducted by aliens.
See.

So now what?
I think since this mornings post, I would like to put more of an effort to post more than once a year. So far I made it this year.
Tonight I saw Les Miserables, it was so good. I would see it again and will recommend it to all the people I know who don't DO musicals. Its when you see a movie that brings forward emotion that you think about all the outlets you have or had for those emotions or emotions in general.
I don't know if it the new year (because last year I don't think I cared) or seeing Les Mis that makes me want to get back to the things that I once used to process emotions. I found myself thinking back to high school - a time that can stay where it is - and the drama and theatre classes and how much fun they were. hey inspired me to write and to really enjoy the arts.
Well see where this renewed passion takes me this year.
Maybe even a post tomorrow.

Its a new year
Well it's 2013 and I would like to share my new year's resolution and goals.
Resolution: Don't sabotage myself. - I'm good at it so I will resolve to not do it again this year. If I don't accomplish everything I want this year we will know.
Goal #1: Exercise more - I would say lose weight but that's stressful. So if I can just get my ass in a gym the eating better and weight loss will fall into place.
Goal #2: Read at least one book a month. I'm a smart girl and can read - I also love reading. I just have to figure out how to read obsessively and still get sleep.
Goal #3: Write more. I was say I am going to write a book - but that's stressful. I am just going to write more. I used to write all the time and some where in time I slowed down to an almost stop. So the goal is to write, stories, blog posts, the elusive book or something (maybe letters to my friends and family).
That's it those are simple enough. Last year was good, this year will be better.
This year will be all ice cream, pizza, partying and making out with boys. (You know the fun things in life.)
One other thing: Not losing faith in the fact that this world is not as awful of a place as last year showed us it could be.

Why...
So I have to think to myself. Why not just delete this blog? I guess the answer is it holds the thoughts for a couple years of my life.
So if I am going to do this today I think I will talk abouth the last thing I posted about. Friday Night Lights. I am very excited for it to come on tv. I hear this season is really good.
Not going to be doing much today because today the Oscars are on tonight.

I think I should pick up some holiday/end of the year blogging
Well I'll put it out there I haven't done any Christmas shopping.
I am going to try to get my best of music list together. I may have to do two lists, one best of 2009 and what I listened to in 2009.
I must admit I didn't do a great job of keeping up with new music in the latter part of 2009.
It is also time to reflect upon the tv, food, books and fun I had this year.

Hmmm
This question has been going around so I thought I would post.
Question is: If you saw ME in a police car what would you think I got arrested for?

Chicken Tortilla Soup
SO I was a part of a food blog for a while and because I know the people involved still eat it mustbe the whoe blog thing.
I recently made chicken tortilla soup for mexican night.
Here is the recipe:
1 1/2 - 2 lbs. of bone-in chicken thighs (I use thighs because they tend not to dry out like breasts and they are way more afforadble.)
6 cups of chicken broth
1 can of diced tomatoes
1/2 can of diced tomatoes w/ green chiles
i large white onion chopped
3 cloves of garlic minced
1 jalapeno (I didn't use jalapeno the last time because the store didn't have it I used poblano-not spicy enough for me)
2-3 tsps chili powder
2 tsps cumin
salt to taste
a palmful of chopped cilantro
1 lime (juice half for cooking and half during serving)
soft corn tortillas - fry to garnishing bowls
chihuahua cheese or monteray jack - to sprinkle on top of bowls (i would of loved some queso blanco but it was so expensive)
bake chicken thighs @ 350 degress for about 40 mins - remove skin and debone - shred chicken
in a skillet cook onions and garlic (in a little vegetable oil)
I used the crockpot cooked on low for about 8 hours
combine the rest of the ingredients in crockpot

Why did I ever believe I could do this?
Yes I mean blogging on a regular basis. This could mean a few things. I have more of a social life that before. or. I go out too much. I have nothing to write about. Its not important. Nobody reads this thing anyway. All sorts of thing.
I have a weird dream last night. It involved old friends, family, a MCTS bus and a Applebee's style restaurant. There were a lot of people I didn't know also. I have no clue what that was about but my subconscious created it so I guess.
Well maybe I will make a better attempt at blogging.
I turned on my ipod this morning which I desperately need new earbuds for and then browsed to a song, I've got to have you by Carly Simon. This made me think that a person music collection must say something about them. I am sure mine would say she is just a few steps away from being absolutely nuts. I like whole albums not just one sone from here and there. Of course I don't have some single songs. For instance the Carly Simon song.
Well who knows.

Today's word: boundaries
I know I am slightly weird about my whole strangers being touchy but if you have been in the situations that I have been in, you would more like see my point. Today I had a close encounter, a stranger appeared from what seemed like nowhere and stood like 2 inches away from me while I was trying to pay for coffee.
I pay and had to side step my way out of the situation. I really do wonder why people stand so close. This does not improve my mood which is already on shaky ground. Anyway I went over to the coffee stand and hear that he is buying coffee. This is an 'oh shit' moment for me because now I have to speed through coffee pouring so we don't have a repeat occurrence. I did not make it. There he was again all over me.
I quickly gathered cream and sugar and high tailed it out of there.
What should I even make of today??
