48. and counting.

so. i've decided to do a wicked, {sweet} deal for you all.

if i get 50 followers (not 50 readers, 50 followers),

i'll do a totally {tubular} give away.

like one you've never experienced.

i'll send one {lucky} winner a few of my favorite things!

so, tell your friends, your neighbors, your class mates {whatev}... to follow me

and you'll all have the opportunity to win win win!

(what you could win, will be announced soon.)

i have 2 followers now (hooray to my 2 followers!!!), so i have 48 to go.

hearts, and flowerd, and stars,

the dog. the camera. the vrooming car.

today {sisssykins} and i saw this

adorable

dog. we took lots of {pictures} of him,

and then he stood up and "woof"ed at us

and we got {scared} and drove away really fast.

i want a dog, but i don't want him to "woof" at me.

like this {one} did.

but if i did have this dog, i'd name him {timothy}.

and i'd call him {tiny tim}.

cause its cute. like him.

pockets full of posies,

{i daringly snapped the picture of this scarily adorable dog.}

today we...

... went out {looking} for jobs.

and we ended up eating at johnny carinos, because its so {delicious},

 and {sissykins} had never eaten there.

it was great. and mom was there too, which was {delightful}.

i do {love} johnny carinos.

turtles in a 1/2 shell,

{sissykins took the first picture you see above, i took the other two.}

lapsana apogonoides.

i love this picture! its called {lapsana apogonoides}.

doesn't {everyone} feel like this sometimes?

that's how i feel right. this. second.

pondering,

{i found this picture on flickr. it is by jam343. what a great person.}

mmmm. peanut butter.

peanutbutter and honey sandwich.

chips and salsa (in this case mango).

{childhood favorite.}

i wish i were a little bar of soap,


{can you guess who took that picture? oh yeah. it was me.}

that no longer empty bed.

here are the "after"s as promised.

{sissykins} is all moved in now, and so her bed stayed {warm} last night.

but she {peaced} out on me so early!

no sister bonding, no watching a sappy chick flick.

nope.

just snoozing on {her} side and watchin i love lucy on {mine}.

i will keep her up tonight.

{i will.}

gotta go eat,


{i did the picturrrrrrre.}

all hail.

today it hailed. and hailed. and hailed.

it was {cold} and the hail looked like little styrofoam balls.

but i had to take a picture! because {weather} is beautiful.

tomorrow it is supposed to snow. :p

cucakes with sprinkles,

{picture by me. like i said up there. already.}

whiskers on kittens.

cat.

smiles,

{picture by me. and cat was very cooperative. nice cat.}

flowers in the trash.

i found these {flowers} in the trash yesterday. they didn't look like they were ready to be thrown away. yes, they were dried and crinckley but still so colorful and beautiful! it was like they were {hanging} on for dear life...

...too late. they're in the dumpster now.

good bye beautiful {flowers}!

(and symbolically it hailed today.)

a rose by any other name, would smell as sweet,

up,up, and away,

key.

yes i do write about my {life}, but i wont use names. protection factor.

so here is a key for future referances on who's {who} and what's {what}.

mom = you'll know when i'm talkin' bout her.

dad = you'll know when i'm talkin' bout him.

younger sister #1 = sissykins

younger brother #1 = brothey

younger sister #2 = sister

younger brother #3 = boo

younger brother #4 = little m

cat = cat

(i'm the oldest of 6.)

as i write about more people i will {clue} you in.

my toes are cold,

that empty bed.

today my {sissykins} is moving in. we've lived apart for 1 1/2 years now,

so its about time she got her booty up here!

soon, that empty bed will be empty no more and i wont be so {lonely} in my room.

after pics to follow when she's moved in. i might even post pics of our {amazing} bulliten board because, truly, it is {amazing}!

spoonfulls of sugar,

{picture take by me. again.}

gene.

this is my turtle night light named {gene}.

since my room is dark and spooky at night, {gene} keeps me company.

that's so nice of him. - his name is {gene} after {gene kelly} the dancer/actor/singer.

do you have a night light?

sunshiney thoughts,


{picture taken by me. yes that's right.}

huzzah and hurrah.

hi folks.

the truth is, i'm not new to blogging. not one bit. however, i started this particular blog because my last blog was {dreadfully} boring and made me want to cry everytime i got on it because of how {dreadfully} boring it actually was. therefore, i'm leaving that ole' pile of rust in the dust and starting with a fresh page.

hmmmmm. about me. - yes i really am {Italian}, so my blog title is completely relevant. and yes i am a {hippie} of sorts, so that's ligit too (just to get that out of the way.) uuuuummmmm i'm addicted to Twitter (and if you are too, you can follow me by clicking here. i'll follow you and it'll be a grand ole time.) -- lets see. i love music like regina spektor, jack johnson, michael buble, norah jones, rilo kiley, she and him etc. i especially love listening to these people on pandora because its {free} and offers other good suggestions.

i do have a {semi-dull} life, but i don't mind. the more chill the better. {i'm down}.

don't judge this first post. its 2:30 in the morning and i'm a tired fool. but for now, i'm peacing out. like really. out.

lots of love and stuff,

{picture courtesy of jessica.paige via flickr - in other words, i didn't snap the pic myself and i don't own it. but muchos gracias to jessica.paige who did!}
