Guys in ....

Los Angeles

The City of Angels
They are far and few in between.

If you live in LA you've probably heard a girl at one point or another say that there are no good men left here. That you would have to go to another state and find a decent guy. For all I know people are saying this all around the world.

I'm not agreeing or disagreeing I'm just sayin...

I think that there are a lot of factors that result in this. A big one is that there are a lot of actors looking for the next best thing. I don't mean to point out just actors. People in general are very indecisive but actors live in a very competitive world and we are surrounded by many here in Hollywood. People have been jaded and that results in trust issues.

Also we love to have fun and don't want to be tied down. This goes for guys and girls. Anyone can be a commitment phobe. They just aren't ready to take it to that next level with you or anyone for that matter.

Your always going to find someone who has a bad experience and then disses the opposite sex all together. This will pass when they have healed and they find someone of interest. Like day and night!

As you get older it gets harder and harder to break out of your comfort zone. This will keep you from allowing others in. Lets say you meet someone knew and you think they are cool. Unless you have the opportunity to run in to them on several occasions you will probably have that one encounter and then leave it at that. That's a lost opportunity and it happens to many. All because they couldn't take the initiative.

All I can say is that anything that is said by anyone is because of their own experience and perspective. That changes with time and then you will just have to be in the right place at the right time. 

Peace. Love. Happiness

Your a Gentleman IF...

You are courteous with out expectation!
Does that define you?

Some examples would be ...
Taking intiative
Take Responsibility
Show Respect
Opening the door and allow her to walk in ahead of you
Taking you hat off inside
Walking on the outside of the woman when walking on the street
  -In case poop flys out a car window
Offering your jacket to a chilly woman
Should you walk in on her naked by accident, look away immediately and apologize
Offer to pay if your able to
Claim and support your children
When at dinner, stand when a lady stands
Pull out her chair
Dress to impress

When sitting at a restaurant, the woman should be seated in such a way that she can look out into the restaurant and the man should sit so that his attention only lie on her.

DO NOT:  Spit, lose your temper, or interrupt
Everything has a time and a place.

If you are doing it correctly you should see gratitude from your encounters, even if it is just a smile.
Take Pride

Love Love Love

Are you in Love?
Why are you in Love?
Why aren't you in Love?

The reason I ask is because I saw this post today and it really made me think...



I wish I coulda made this smaller but I couldn't so too bad!
Are you lonely?
Are you desperate?
Are you happy?
Are you satisfied?
Are you bored?

There is a saying ... "You don't choose your family but you do chose your friends, so choose wisely "
I would say the same goes for who you love.

Whale Watching

So I bought a trip with my friend to go on a 4 hour boat ride in the channel islands. Once we were on the boat they mentioned that the best time to come was in December. WOW!

Did I see any whales on my trip you ask?
NO!


It shoulda been called Marine Bird Watching with Dolphin sitings. HA!

Seeing dolphins was cool. There was a pack of them swimming all around and the baby's swam right up against the mothers.
They took us to this island and we went all around it. It was nice to hear the history and all but we still didn't see any whales. There were some sea lions and again some birds.



                   

As you can see it was a cold and gloomy day out at sea. We had come from 90 degree weather and I did not dress for the ocassion.

I do tend to get motion sickness and in this case I got sea sick. The good news is I always feel better after I throw up. AWESOME! Then we got to eat lunch which was just half a sandwich and some pasta salad. They had watermelon which I hate so didn't get that.

Since I do get sick I don't think it will be worth doing it again. Maybe with time I will feel differently but Ive gotten sick on other excursions as well. Even just kayaking makes me sick. GOSHNESS

YOUR A CHEATER IF...

... YOU HAVE TO QUESTION IT! DUH

Seriously if your actions are questionable then there is no question as to if your cheating. This can be with anything in life.

Things you can cheat on:
Tests, License Exams, Diets, Best Friends, and the one you all thought I was talking about .... Significant Other.

Dun Dun Dun ... If you have ever felt guilty then you are. Plain and simple. Even if no one caught you, you are wrong. Fix it right now.

Colorado Theater Shooting

Can you imagine being in a movie theatre and having someone randomly start shooting?
OMG NO!
Well it happened at the Friday midnight showing of the new Batman. Do you think that movie is cursed now? I'm just saying from what happened to Heath Ledger in 2008.
Who in their right mind thinks about that? Well I'm sure were thinking about it now...
I know everyone is wondering where the heck this guy got his motive to do such a thing. To my knowledge we don't know yet.  I read something that made it seem like his mother automatically knew it was him.
What is wrong with parents who see something wrong with their children and don't do anything?

Its those smart quiet people you have to worry about. Do they just feel like out casts so they have to ruin other peoples lives? Do you think he was bored and just came up with this idea just to see if he could get away with it? Well if it is the guy they caught in the parking lot, he didn't get away. He did however manage to kill 12 people and injure many more. What does he get out of that? Gross!

My friend thought maybe they would begin putting detectors in the theatres now, if they do, they need to do it at the exits because that's how he got in! Mortifying!

I like how something bad happens then we take extra precaution, after the fact. If someone wants to do something, they are going to do it and they will figure out a way. How about they just ban movies and video games that have been proven to influence these disasters. Kids wont know the difference if they never knew it was there in the first place.

MONEY! Geee Wiizz

Breakfast

Have you ever gotten sick of eating the same thing every morning?
For a while I was eating oatmeal then I got so sick of it, I wont eat it anymore.
Now I eat plain fat free yogurt and add gluten free granola, flax seed and whey protein to it. I like the combination and have yet to not want to eat it.

I read in a book for metabolism that you should jump start your day with protein. I dont know how much I get in this combination but I feel just fine. Its not a very big portion so if I get hungry before lunch then I will eat fruit and the almonds. These almonds are plain, when I had the salted ones they went really fast. Salt makes things taste so good, I keep control over it because it cant be good for you in excess. I wonder if you can have an addiction to salt?

Soda Review

Let me just say I try not to drink soda. Sometimes you just cant help it though!
Today I was given the new Pepsi Paradise Mango.
In my personal opinion they should not have made that combination. I realize everyone has different taste buds but 3 other people did not like it either. My friend Coleen said it tasted similar to the Green Skittle. I'm not sure what that one tastes like but it must not be the best one!

I took one sip and was done with it. I feel that it had a very artificial taste to it. It says on the can that it has less sugar. Most of the time I don't like things that say diet because I can taste the fake sugar and its not a satisfying taste. Yuck!

I find it funny that they will still make money because people will buy it just to try it weather they like it or not. Oh the way the world turns ...

What I Saw Today

What did I see you ask?
Not a whole heck of a lot.

I went to breakfast with a friend and had a shrimp omelet. Boy was it good. Later I took a walk and browsed through Barns and Noble. There was a kid telling his mom that part of the schedule was to hit Pink Berry. I found that amusing, it also made me want some as well. I intentionally left my money so that I wouldn't buy on impulse when I had no desire to spend money.

While I was browsing books I had no intention of buying I ran in to Biography's. I thought it would be interesting to read about someone I am familiar with. That person happened to be Andy Cohen from Bravo TV. I read a few pages and actually was intrigued. It was time to go so I put the book down and left.

Walking through all the people at the mall I began to really focus on what people were wearing. I know for sure I don't put a lot of effort into my appearance on a daily basis. I don't know why but some people really stand out while others don't and it causes you to judge. I don't see myself as a judgmental person but it made me wonder about the choices people make.

As you can see the highlight of my day was breakfast. I don't know what tonight holds for me but breakfast will still be the best part.

Peace. Love. Joy.

BOSS Problems

Have you ever worked for someone you cant respect?

Let me tell you it doesn't last long. Most of us want to keep our dignity and the light will shine through!
Not only is it hard to work for someone you don't respect you also cant work with someone that way either.
Take a look at your friends. Can you be true friends with someone you don't respect? NO! You dump them for better ones.

The problem is its harder to dump your boss or coworker than it is to dump a friend. Respect is necessary in our society. People gain respect and people give it. If its not there then you wont be taken seriously and no one will listen to you. Can you imagine a boss that no one wants to listen to? How can they perform their job?

The biggest turn of in a work place are people who gain power and then try to get away with murder! Power hungry people in general are not to be trusted.




If your not the only one who feels this way at your job,  people need to start pulling together and make something happen. Unhappiness is so unnecessary in our day to day lives. A job is not worth it.
You may think that one little issue is insignificant but add all those instances together and you have one huge problem. Keep track of dates, times and instances. One day this will come in handy even if your not prepared to present it that day. If nothing else its some kind of release for you to write down your frustrations.

You should not be taking work stress home with you!

In the end its all about YOU! Are YOU happy? Is it worth it in YOUR life? Is it affecting YOUR mood?

Think About IT!

Variety


Options
Have you ever noticed how many types of things there are to choose from? When you go to the grocery store each isle may contain 10 versions of the same things. WHY!? This causes major indecision. You see people standing around trying to figure out the best things that will work for them. Weather it be based on ingredients, the company selling it or the price. Someone should seriously come out with one elite product that is reasonably priced so we can all get on with our day.


Noodles
Have you ever noticed how many pasta shapes there are? They each have a name and one you eat with cheese and one you eat with sauce. There's red, white and green sauce. There's lasagna and cannelloni, their basic ingredients are sauce, cheese and meat. So why so many options? No matter what it looks like they basically taste the same. Its like they're trying to trick us or something.





Toilet Paper
I have the biggest beef with toilet paper because you buy it to basically flush it down the toilet. There's the generic brand and then the one that's supposed to feel like pillows against your bum. I know some people who are pretty spoiled about their toilet paper, but why spend so much on something you use for a few seconds and throw away? Makes no sense to me! I'm just sayin...

I believe there is more to be disturbed about but you get my point.

HOT Heat

Growing up in Santa Monica you don't really experience extreme heat. If it does get hotter than usual you just stop at the beach, no big deal. When I moved to Pasadena I really got to experience heat. Good thing most apartments come with AC units, in Santa Monica most don't. Now a days you can pretty much avoid the heat. You can take a car ride with the AC on. You can have an Iced coffee at Starbucks and chill out. You can close off your living room and crank up the AC till your frozen, then go outside and appreciate the heat.




When I moved to Sherman Oaks, I think the highest it got there one summer was 113. WOW that was some heat. Its true that you get used to your climate. I don't remember thinking I was cold all the time in Santa Monica. After spending time in the warmer zone and then going back, there is definitely a change in me.



Here are some tips from the Arizonians http://www.huffingtonpost.com/, one being to do things before the sun comes ups. I knew an artist once that lived in the desert and did most of his work before the sun came up. He really adapted to his environment. I guess it works if you can sleep during the day. I know some people don't need a lot of sleep but I need tons to feel satisfied.



I would sleep in the hammock while getting a tan if I could. I'm just sayin... Doesn't that look amazing!

STOP Identity Theft


Shop The Magenta Shop

It seems some people are still in the dark about identity theft. There are now so many precautions it seems we have to make yet people are still exposing their information on the WWW (World Wide Web) DUh! According to this Article http://www.latimes.com people are taking pictures of their debit card and tweeting it with their information exposed. How dumb is that?! It goes on to say "8.6 million American households experienced identity theft in 2010, with unauthorized credit card use accounting for much of the increase from the 6.4 million households victimized in 2005. Families lost a total of $13.3 billion, with an average of $2,200 lost per household affected."

I’m sure by know if you haven’t had your card numbers stolen, you know someone who has. I have yet to experience any issues, however I know about 5 people who have.

This article http://www.givemebackmycredit.com shares that it may be better to use a credit card rather than your debit card, should something happen the credit card company will get your money back sooner than the bank. Just don’t go all willy nilly and get yourself into debt.

It highlights some places to think twice before using your debit card
 Outdoor ATMs
"Skimming is the practice of capturing card information by running it through a device that reads the card's magnetic strip. Skimming machines are frequently placed over the actual card slots at ATMs or other outdoor card reading terminals like vending machines or parking lot payment kiosks."
 Gas Stations
"Thieves employ small video cameras at gas pumps to capture footage of unsuspecting card users typing in their PINs, saving it for later and going on a spending spree.
All the same, even if the thief does not get your PIN, he is still able to reproduce your card's magnetized strip and use it for most transactions."
The Web
"Malware or spyware downloaded to a computer provides an entry point for a hacker to store and lift information whenever they please. "
Restaurants
"Some waiters will keep debit card numbers and expiration dates with the intention of using them later on"

Should you think your untouchable, think again! Wise up and watch what you do. Although you may eventually get your money back, think of all the time you will have to put in sorting it out.

Message to the thieves: There are bigger fish to fry, stop messing with us little people. Thanks!
