Ahhhhh, why is it when I PMS, it always seem like my body is screaming, “Come hither, Misfortune! Ravage me until I can take it no more!!!”. So to keep me feeling positive, I’m posting this month’s Zen. About frakking time too because I was beginning to feel only the sight of Sawyer’s disheveled hair and bedimpled visage is the sole reason why I still wish to breathe.
Missing Our Old Habits Whenever we make the effort to free ourselves of an addiction or a habit we no longer need, we are often surprised to find ourselves missing the old pattern as we would a familiar friend. This sounds counterintuitive, because we think we should instinctively gravitate toward what is good for us. Yet, it makes a lot of sense when you consider that we humans are creatures of habit. This is why we gravitate to people and places—and patterns of behavior—that make us feel comfortable. Therefore, many of the habits we form are not conscious and are based instead on learned behavior from role models who were not always making the healthiest decisions.
Most addictions begin as a way of avoiding feelings that are extremely uncomfortable, so it makes sense that stopping the addiction means a fair amount of discomfort for a time. The same is also true of habits that we have developed over time that we are ready to release. Just knowing that this is hard, and having compassion for ourselves as we work through this process, can help us to stay the course when we feel the urge to backtrack. It’s also helpful to remember that in time we will establish new, healthier patterns, and the yearning for the old ones will disappear. Eventually, we will instinctively reach for things that are good for us, and the longing for positive change may form the basis of a new habit.
The only way to get to this new place is to endure a time of difficulty, which is a challenge we can confidently handle, if we remember that it will lead to the change we seek in our lives. Our bodies, hearts, and minds always need time to adjust to a new way of doing things, but they will adapt, and even become our allies, if we remain true to our vision of a new way.

Anyone who has seen Sarah Silverman’s video with Matt Damon would appreciate this…especially because it includes a ridiculous cast of celebrities (ZOMG Brad Pitt pitched in on this one too ?? !!). It must be the most HI-LARIOUS video I have yet seen this year.
I LOLed so hard watching this, water came out of my nose !
+ I just saw an online post featuring Lindsay Lohan’s recent photoshoot. Damn that woman and her sandy ass skin. She’s got freckles like you wouldn’t believe! I even mistook her nipples for freckles; she’s all fuckin’ dotty! I bet she’’s gonna look 80 when she turns 25.
+ How can you not love this ? Benry Bitch is made of win, I tell ya !
+ Just procured Ian Spektor’s “The Truth About Chuck Norris”…among the many I love (and it’s so unfair that I can’t type all 400 entries in here) include: - “Freddy Krueger has nightmares about Chuck Norris”
- “Chuck Norris frequently donates blood to the Red Cross. Just not his own.”
- “As well as being an actor, martial artist, and poet. Chuck Norris is also a world-renowned physicist.
It was this capacity that he once had a disageement about steady-state theory
with Stephen Hawking. Hence the wheelchair.”
- “Chuck Norris can speak Braille”.
+ Anyone glad Mulder and Scully are back together for movie flick numbah 2? Since I ain’t getting much love from the Hameron; I might as well squee my head off for my OG OTP. Booyah!
+ I’m in my fat mood right now. I cooked Lechon Kawali twice this week. I feel my cholesterol level cackling in evil glee.
+ I think Chuck Norris should be sent out to set Britney Spears straight…however a roundhouse kick to the face is hardly what one calls, “setting someone straight”.
+ One of my supervisors does this weird snort-sniff thing. He makes me want to reach out and give him vicks and a tissue.
+ On Valentines day, I asked the server of Ruth Chris to give back my lobster bisque to the chef. Seems like someone in there emptied an entire bottle of sherry in it thinking I’d call him a champ. Chump, more like.
+ It it Thursday yet? SKaters are going to celebrate CAPSLOCKING day on the 21st. That and gratitous “oohs” and “aaahs” and the occational, “WTF brain seepeage! ! !”
So as you can see, I’m scatterbrained as usual. Am hoping someday soon I’ll be able to post the inspirational OM for the day. Me thinks I need to stay away from this Lost madness…and the lechon kawali.
+ Belated Happy Hearts Day everyone. All I wanted to do was watch Lost but noooooooooo, my hubby had to take me out to dinner. **smirk** So I ended up reveling in SKate angst a few hours later. I love Sawyer !
+ Sayid looks like he could feel hot. Too bad he never gets to use his real accent. Hubba hubba hubba.
+ Why must Desmond tease me with his gorgeous pecs peeking through that sexy ass shirt of his. Hot damn he was smoldering.
+ Sawyer practically proposing to Kate (well sort of)…NGUHHHHHHH
+ ZOMG I’m so excited for the SKate to snog again…at least this time it’s not in a cage; nor will they get sand in their funky areas. This time; it’ll be on **gasp** a BED. Squee! ! !
+ Fucking Benry Gale is unbelievably evil. God I love that bug-eyed twerp!
+ Hurley afraid of Sayid’s breakdancy legs…bwa-ha-ha…Sayid’s milkshake brings all the girls in the yard…yes it does…and girls drink it all up!
+ and holy shit at that ending, eh? Made my brain leak through my nose and ears! Oh Lost how you pwn me every fucking week!
ZOMG; Sawyer wants to protect Kate. SQUEEEE! ! ! **diez and is ded**
First of all, I am so bummed to have missed CAPSLOCKING day at Ack Attack’s journal yesterday. It was a quite the internet sorority party I heard. Damn you TPTB-of-the-retail-chain-store-I-won’t-mention-for-fear-someone-would-actually-google-and-find-my-raving-maniacal-post here!!!
I always don’t understand what it is about Lost’s uncanny ability to make me crave for mind fuckage that I can not simply shake off??…episode after fucking episode. I mean there are no words! Except maybe to say, “CHARLIEEEEEEEEEE!!!” ;___:
Ok so I lie…there are a few words. I can’t write them all down because by the time I’m done writing a third of what I want to say, my brain would have imploded and thus leaving me with a cavity inside my skull.
So here goes:
1. ZOMG! Gratuitous pectoral muscle shots everywhere! Hello Mr. Cusack and your wonderful blue shirt! Let’s not forget Sawyer who still pwns whiny ass Jack Shepard any day!
2. Man angst over Charlie Warlie…made me cry! Oh Sawyer let me hold you!
3. Mr. Hugo Reyes growing a pair. Like Duuuude.
4. Will there be a single episode where JEARS (jack + tears) are not part of the scene? C’mon seriously…
5. Kate is a damn fool.
6. I’m starting to like what I see when Desmond’s bare chest face is on camera.
7. Charlie is Boss. Charlie wins at life. Uh, even when he’s uh…dead.
That’s all I can afford right now. A few meager musings…besides I think my brain is hurting. Yup, it’s definitely hurting…
