Anniversary Destinations

So...my man are slowly appriaching our one year anniversary (nov) and it hasn't been an easy ride to say the least
Since we've decided to likely slag off somewhere and to the trip/us time thing we're starting to get into planning mode now...

So far the front runners are NYC, Savannah Georgia, Salem Mass.

I'd like to keep it to driving distance but he also has a friend in GA we could visit and he is dying for me to meet.
So thats another possibility...

What do y'all think and if you had something like this coming up where would you go?

Tricking Children

Now I'm not generally an advocate of giving into childrens unreasonable demands but sometimes we parents do take the path of least resistance.
Take today for example...I have a headache, the kids have been inside all day cause of the rain and my youngest hasn't eaten anything.
Now beyond being picky, he's also stubborn
So for dinner I made his favorite food of all time.................oatmeal

Not your general dinner fare...but I managed to get in all the food groups, thus tricking him

I took half a cup of oatmeal (old school rolled oats) two egg whites whipped up w/ a bit of milk and half a cup of water.
Nuked this for 2 min, stirred and nuked for another min
Then I added grated apple, a huge dollop of vanilla yogurt and like usual...brown sugar and milk

Now my son isn't the brightest bulb in the tanning bed...so because I used all white or tan-ish colored food he is happily eating it while I rest my weary head

What kind of ways have you found work well for "tricking" your kids into eating healthy or doing stuff they otherwise don't wanna do?

Musical Interlude

This song was featured on SYTYCD in what has been one of my favorite routines to date this season (tied with the Viennese Waltz )

Anyhoo....I looked up the song and it strikes SO close to home it's not even close to amusing. It is however a great song...

Bleeding Love

Closed off from love
I didn’t need the pain
Once or twice was enough
And it was all in vain
Time starts to pass
Before you know it you’re frozen

But something happened
For the very first time with you
My heart melted to the ground
Found something true
And everyone’s looking round
Thinking I’m going crazy

But I don’t care what they say
I’m in love with you
They try to pull me away
But they don’t know the truth
My heart’s crippled by the vein
That I keep on closing
You cut me open and I

Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open

Trying hard not to hear
But they talk so loud
Their piercing sounds fill my ears
Try to fill me with doubt
Yet I know that the goal
Is to keep me from falling

But nothing’s greater
Than the rush that comes with your embrace
And in this world of loneliness
I see your face
Yet everyone around me
Thinks that I’m going crazy, maybe, maybe

But I don’t care what they say
I’m in love with you
They try to pull me away
But they don’t know the truth
My heart’s crippled by the vein
That I keep on closing
You cut me open and I

Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep (keep) bleeding love (love)
You cut me open

And it’s draining all of me
Oh they find it hard to believe
I’ll be wearing these scars
For everyone to see

I don’t care what they say
I’m in love with you
They try to pull me away
But they don’t know the truth
My heart’s crippled by the vein
That I keep on closing (ooh)
You cut me open and I

Keep bleeding (ah ah)
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love (ooh ooh)
Keep bleeding (oh ooh ooh)
Keep, keep bleeding love (love)
(Oh) you cut me open and I

Keep bleeding (ah ah)
Keep, keep bleeding love (yeah ah yeah)
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love (oh, I keep bleeding love)
Keep bleeding (I keep)
Keep, keep bleeding love (oh)
You cut me open and I

Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love

Random Thoughts

You know when you see a really ugly couple...like both people are fucking UGLY...
I can't help but wonder if genetics and nature have hard wired their brains to genuinely find their partner attractive or if they both realize their aesthetic lot in life and know they can't really do better

Remember...I said random thoughts...not profound thoughts
