Remember that childhood sing-along rhyme? 

“Who stole the cookie from the cookie jar? (insert name) stole the cookie from the cookie jar! Who me? Yes, you! Couldn’t be! Then who?” 

Yea, my hand has been in the cookie jar. So sue me.

I can’t have just one cookie. I think that’s why I like PopTarts so much. They come in packages of 2. Madelines from Starbucks are good too. Those come in packages of 3. But lately, I’ve been noticing the floatation device around my middle has been bloated for awhile so I think I should just limit myself to 1 cookie after dinner. I must choose which 1 cookie might be best for me. Oatmeal raisin? Chocolate chip? White chocolate macadamia nut? Why can’t there be a mixture of all the delicious cookies out there. Oatmeal, chocolate chip w/macadamia nuts? Perfection. 

:decisions, decisions, and then we all fall down:

ps, i didn’t just write an entry about cookies, or did i?

...(story as told to me by anonymous)...

So I had been dating this guy for a little bit. Things were great, we got along, connected on many different levels, and then *poof* he disappears without a trace.  

When a guy loses his balls somewhere up his ass and doesn’t have half a brain to realize they were missing to begin with, he is bound to ‘forget’ about his girl.

Unreturned phone calls, 10 bitten off nails and a week later, an apology that starts like, “Sorry we’ve been having communication issues lately…” is just unacceptable. 

WTF?

Let’s translate that for a minute…

WE haven’t been having any communication issues, the issue is the fact that there was no communication. That issue is YOURS and YOURS ONLY. Take responsibility. Be honest. You just weren’t that into ME. 

It’s a big pill to swallow, since I’m so wonderfully beautiful and charming, but I had to keep my cool on this one. The lame-o email promised a phone call later on during the week, and I can’t wait to hear from him, only so I can chew him out. But honestly, I’m done. He doesn’t even deserve to hear my voice again. As hard as it is to not get closure, I’ve already made peace with it. He’s a weenie, not worth my time, bigger fish in the sea…. enough said.  

It’s hard to get rejected, but it takes more courage to reject someone. Honesty is the best policy, especially with your own self. My friend Bill got it right when he said: 

... This above all: to thine own self be true,
And it must follow, as the night the day,
Thou canst not then be false to any man.
Farewell; my blessing season this in thee!

	-- William Shakespeare

.

this life, my world, the galaxy, universe and cosmos.
we are all stars, sneezed out from God’s nostrils. 

some shine brightly, leading the lost through the darkest of times. 
others remain to complete constellations, or to freckle the night filled sky.

as the earth rotates, it is impossible to stand still & we all change.
but the stars in my life will always remain…
