News For Sunday

Happy Halloween !

Happy Halloween !!   Well it's the night for black cats, pumpkins, witches, ghosts and goblins. It's also a night for scary movies and ghost stories. I wonder if there will be a full moon on this All Hallows Eve. On this night I kind of wonder if there's any ghosts roaming through Salem or if "The Headless Horsemen"still rides in search of a head. Sleep well if you can tonight because you never know if a restless spirit may pop in for a visit.

It's My Saturday News

Happy Halloween !

For starters I'm a day early so forgive me. Second thing it's daylight savings time. I don't have much to say but I wanted to check in with you about my day. I am doing fine. I guess tomorrow will be the day for ghosts and goblins to roam and witches to cast their haunting spells. I'll have to be on the look out for any black cats. Sleep well on this All Hallows Eve good night.

Recent News

I haven't voted yet so I keep being reminded by people that there's only a few more days before election day. On a different note on the ABC NEWS a videotape was aired Thursday night in which a shrouded man who identified himself as "Azzam the American" claimed he was an American member of Al-Qaida. He made threats of future terrorist attacks in the U.S. He reported that "September 11th was but the opening salvo of the global war on America.

In my opinion we can't keep going the way we have been. A tape broadcast Thursday by ABC news also appeared to confirm suspicions reported earlier this month to the IAEA by Iraqi officials , who said that hundreds of tons of high-grade explosives, poweful enough to bring down buildings or detonate nuclear weapons, had vanished from the Al-Qaqaa site after the U.S. led invasion of Iraq. A U.S. intelligence official said the 377 tons of missing Iraqi high explosives are only a fraction of the weapons related material that has disappeared since the invasion. U.N. officials said they also are concerned about the disappearance of sensitive equipment and controlled materials that could be used to develop nuclear, biological or chemical weapons.

I'm worried about the state of our nation. I'm really not sure if we can overcome another terrorist attack. More than likely another terrorist attack would end up being an extreme act of violence. 

I can't say for sure what the outcome of all this will be. I just have to say that news such as this is far more morbid than anything Edgar Allen Poe could have ever written.

THOUGHTS OF AN UNDECIDED VOTER

I wonder what radio stations and television news stations will talk about after this Presidential election is done. This one Presidential election has gone on forever. Everywhere you turn you are bombarded with news of the candidates or the election itself. I am becoming numb to the news of this election. I really wish that this election was over and done with. I am ready to get back to life without any thoughts of this election. I wish that people would talk about something else instead. It would be nice to hear about something that didn't involve voting.

Maybe we could talk about something a little exciting for example the fast approaching holidays now there is something that I would like to hear about. I would really like to talk about the joy of the holidays. Thanksgiving is almost here and so is Christmas. I would like to hear something that doesn't make me want to turn off the television. It would just be nice to get back to a life where we didn't talk about politics 24 / 7. I am ready to get back to my life without having to hear the words George Bush / John Kerry is that normal ?

I JUST HAVE TO ASK WOULD IT BE SO BAD IF I DECIDED NOT TO VOTE ???

MY DAY

Well today was one of those days. I had an evening of too much perfection. I went to this place that I had never been before. I found a place called "THE BOOK NOOK" which to me says it all. This place had it all-books, movies and CD's. Being the book lover that I am this place had a room full. I could have spent all day there. I can't wait to go back. I was like a kid in a candy store I didn't want to leave the book nook I really didn't. It had every book you can imagine and some of them were quite old.

Then the next perfect thing was the weather. It's been nice here in the peach state. The sky has been blue and the wind has been warm in a very pleasant way. Days like this are for picnics and going for walks in the park and eating ice-cream.

Once in a while it's nice to veer from one's normal routine which is a must from time to time. Sometimes you have to veer from the day to day routine of life and find something fun. Sometimes it's going someplace different that can change one's whole outlook on life. Today my day started out a routine and then later on I veered. Change can be a good thing you just have to enjoy it.

Thoughts for Sunday

To begin I would like to start my notes off to you as if we are already in the middle of a conversation. Well recently I finished reading "Zlata's Diary".

The book was a diary of a young girl's life in Sarajevo. Zlata is a young girl who experienced the horror of war in Sarajevo. Zlata didn't suffer the same fate as Anne Frank did but they did experience the same extreme horrors of war.

My world is no different. At the moment the world in which I live is at war against terrorism in Iraq. We are also in the middle of a Presidential election. It's possible that this election won't change anything and its a shame that I'm not hopeful. In my opinion Anne, Zlata and Mattie are examples of great people.

On a different note the holidays are right around the corner. I really can't wait until the holidays. I just wonder what the holidays are like in other parts of the world. Good-night dear world.

Thoughts for Wednesday

A Longer Weekend... I think that would be a great idea. I think that a lot of people would get behind that. It would be nice to get ( 2 ) Fridays instead of one. It would be even better if we had ( 2 ) Saturdays instead of one. I think that tons of people all over the world would definitely go for a longer weekend especially those who have to work an entire week like me. It would be something if Friday was made into 2 days on the calendar. I think that the next President who ever he is should take into consideration. Wouldn't it just be something if Friday came twiceI look forward to Fridays because that means I will be sleeping in on Saturday. I think Saturday would be even better if it came twice a week. Weekends should be considered a national holiday, I'm just saying. 

P.S. There will be no more dear diary I am just going to turn my thoughts loose

Thoughts For Tuesday

Dear Diary,

Well here I am again as if anything is new. Well I am fine and so is everyone else here at home. Work is keeping be busy, busy, busy which is nothing new. Politically I am still undecided about who to vote for President. I don't know if I am going to vote for George Bush or John Kerry. I really don't know how I am ever going to decide on that one. I don't know if Bush or Kerry will really care if I vote or not. Voting for a President is a major thing especially to me. It's hard enough deciding what kind of coffee you want in the morning let alone who you want to choose for President of the United States. Dear diary I would hate to hear that the Presidential election came down to one vote and I was the only one who had not yet went to vote. I really don't want to think about if it came down to my 1 vote. Choosing the right President is huge how can anyone leave that decision up to me ?????

JUst A Little News

Dear Diary,

         Hello! Hello! Hello! Good evening dear diary here I am again. Well I watched 2 of the Presidential debates and only a few minutes of the last one which I'm NOT sorry about in the least. I have kept up with some of the Presidential election through newspapers and television so that's pretty good I have to say. I am now at the point where I am tired of the Presidential election. Right now I have to say that I can't wait until Nov. 2 when I will cast my vote and it will all be over. I am ready to get back to my life without having to hear about politics every 5 minutes of my day. It will be nice when Bush or Kerry steps into the oval office and my life will return to its normally scheduled programming. I am ready for all of the talk of politics and debates to be over and done with at least for me dear diary. I have to say that I have found that I'm pretty funny at least to me that is. That's all I have to say on that topic.

On a different note work has been keeping me busy, busy, busy as usual. I am also doing fine. I am ready to hear other kinds of news like Martha Stewart in prison or Michael Jackson's latest problem, just kidding. So I guess you can say that I haven't been doing much of anything but working or coming to you dear diary as usual time and time again and again of course.

Fall has certainly arrived and the weather has gotten quite brisk. I'm sure that Winter is just around the corner. It's a perfect time for a big cup of hot apple cider. Who else would feel this way but me dear diary ????  Good - night.

October Thoughts

Dear Diary, 

 

      Autumn has arrived. Autumn is full of wonderful things. Autumn arrives with its leaves changing and the air, crisp. There are a lot of things that I like about about Autumn. I am flooded with thoughts of candy corn, baked apples, brown paper bags,the aroma of cinnamon and vanilla, pumpkins and pumpkin pie, hot apple cider with a hint of nutmeg, Halloween decorations, hot chocolate with marshmallows, curling up with a warm blanket, watching old movies on t.v., chicken noodle soup, cotton candy and a whole lot more. As you can tell dear diary I love, love, love, love, love Autumn. I love this time of year with all of its colors. I like to see the earth bathed in Autumn colors- brown, red, yellow, orange and green. Everything is nice during this time of year and there's something magical in the air. How can anyone not like this time of year dear diary ?

 

On a different note Tiger Woods got married and it wasn't to me. He broke a lot of hearts today but it didn't break mine not in the least. I wish Tiger all the best and nothing but happiness but he wasn't my type which I'm sure is obvious by now. Who my type is I'm not quite certain but if Benecio Del Toro decided to give me a call I would be more than certain. Of course if Michael Madsen came to see me I would be more than certain to show him he was my type what woman wouldn't. There are a lot of different guys in the world but Michael Madsen is a totally perfect male specimen and the perfect example of gorgeous in every sense of the word, I'm saying. So what else is there dear diary ? Need I say more ??? I think not. Good-night dear diary and good-night dear void.

More and more and more of who else ? me

Dear Diary,

        I'm not going to say hello , hi or even good evening because frankly I'm not in the mood to be cute nor funny. I could make an attempt to not come to you dear diary to complain about this, that and the other but I would rather not. I would just prefer to say what's on my mind and be done with it. I am surrounded by different guys at work which is never horrible. The horrible part is that none of the guys has yet to ask me out not one. None of the guys come to me just to make conversation which would be a welcome change for me in my daily rounds at work. All though I have to say that I might not be some cover of a magazine or some glamorous celebrity who wakes up in the morning looking like some walking Revlon commercial but I think I'm a pretty average looking female with a sense of humor as well. On the other hand I  feel like a dork coming to you dear diary but that's what I feel half the time. I either come to you complaining or I come to you with some very silly thought but I don't think that you mind dear diary. Of course I'm going to tell you what's on my mind whether you like it or not which I've done anyway. Who else could I tell these thoughts to but you dear diary ? Though it's  better than going to a psychiatrist and paying them plenty of money which I'm sure would end up paying for some million dollar home only to find that I'm perfectly normal. I would rather come to you dear diary and save the money in my pocket for something that I want instead. I'm sure that you understand me dear diary, at least I hope so.......

Sunday's Thoughts

Dear Diary,

       Greetings from Atlanta, Georgia and good evening . I have a few thoughts today as usual . The famous poet Robert Frost once wrote I like to find the folks getting out in spring, Raking the dooryard, working near the house. Later they get out further in the fields.... The fields are stripped to lawn, the garden patches stripped to bare ground, the maple trees to whips and poles. Well today I did a little bit of yard work a plethora of yard activities . I raked up a little bit of pine straw, picked up a few pine cones and watered the front lawn . Robert Frost would have said that a little bit of yard work is good for the soul .

         You can tell that Autumn has arrived because the air is crisp and the leaves are changing little by little. It's getting time for hot apple cider, candy corn, pumpkins and Halloween decorations. Around this time of year it's nice to curl up in a warm blanket with a hand full of candy corn and read a good book or watch an old movie on t.v. with popcorn. I like when Autumn arrives because there's something magical about the month of October. Nothing is better dear diary than turning out the lights, reading a good scary story with a flashlight that's my most favorite part of Autumn dear diary. I wonder if anyone else feels the same way.

          Though it might seem weird that I run to you to tell you these things but you are the only one who understands me dear diary. Other people might think that the thoughts in my head are quite strange to say the least. I don't know if it's weird that I always come back to you or if the thoughts in my head are weird. Today was one of those days that I felt pretty good. Maybe it's the seasons changing or the weather but I actually feel like I'm coming to life in a whole different way I just can't explain it. I think that Robert Frost would have enjoyed this time of year as much as I do.

          What do you think dear diary ???? I wonderwhat it's like in Salem, Massachusetts during this time of year ? I imagine that in this time of year around Salem spirits are walking the earth, witches are riding around on their broom sticks and the Headless Horseman is still searching for the one who stole his head or maybe that's just me.

More of me

Dear Diary,

       Good evening dear diary here I am again. Well as usual work kept me busy. I have to say that John Kerry did pretty good in last night's debate. I feel that John Kerry should keep up with what he did in debate as he continues in this presidential election. In my opinion he has my vote and that's all I have to say politically.

      What I'm about to say is on a more personal note. My co workers complain about their husbands getting on their nerves but I feel differently. I have to say that I would like to meet someone, fall in love and get married. I would like for someone to know me someone other than you dear diary. I would like to think that eventually I will meet someone and I will be with that person for the rest of my life. I'm sure no one could put up with me forever but you never know. I'm not sure right now but things can change. Is this normal dear diary ??????? Good night dear diary it's getting late.
