Bike Rally Fun

Some people will look at me and say, "no way, she doesn't look like a bike rally type gal!" I am here to set the record straight. I really enjoy going to Bike Rally's. My favorite, and I have only been to a few, I will admit, is Hogrock. We have been going to this rally for about 11 years. I don't always go twice a year, June can get pretty hot and those that know me, know that the heat and I just don't get along that well. It totally saps my energy. Though I will rally and try and hang with the crew.

The Original Hogrock Crew

Ron, Emily, Terri and Eric

There are few things more fun than sitting at your camper, drinking your favorite drink, with shots of tequila in between, watching people who are just as drunk, riding their bikes!

Oh, the laughter we have had at Hogrock, at other peoples stupidity! A quick thanks to those nameless many! Thank You, Thank You!!

There is also the joy of being able to laugh at those in our own group!

Hanging with my Home Slice

I am not sure, but I think Ron is doing that wrong???

Two Chicks and a Harley
can't get much hotter than that!

I know that many people think that bike rally's are full of druggie, bike gang, nasty ass people. They think that all is done is rape, robbing and pillaging! lol Yes, I said pillaging.

But this isn't true. We haven't even seen a fight. I have seen some sexual activity.. which did not gross me out, I just kept going on my way. There is a lot of drinking and nudity. But the whole thing is just a bunch of fun! I really enjoy going and I am glad that friends we have, enjoy going too!

If you are wanting to go to a bike rally, but are scared because of the rumors, just go for the day, give it a shot, you might find that you really enjoy it, and that you have a little freak flag to fly of your own! Try and get your bestie to go with you, if you can. 

My bestie Emily!

If your lucky you will leave with having had a handful of righteous boob and NO hangover!

Ode to a "Lovin' Man"

~I'm Sexy And I Know It~

I can't begin to describe how much I feel for my "Lovin' Man". Saying I love him just doesn't quite seem to do it justice. How do you describe the feelings you have for someone, who has come into your life and just loved you. Loved you and your son, unconditionally. Has had no problems with your quirky ways and your "nuttier than a squirrel turd" family? I know he came from a quirky family himself, so that probably does have something to do with it. He has put up with so much and still loves me. 17 years in April and it doesn't seem like it. I just am amazed at how he just goes with the flow of the things that are going on. He has been there through my illness and surgeries.  Such unconditional love amazes me. I look at others in relationships and there are few that compare to what I have with "Lovin' Man".  Not that I don't realize how lucky I am, but it just reaffirms it. I have heard it said that "the grass is greener on the other side".. I think we are the other side. I love my life. I love my family and I am more thankful everyday, that I have a man such as him, in my life. Now, don't get me wrong, we have had squabbles and have been mad at each other, but out of the 16 years of our relationship, I can count the times we have had an actual fight on one hand.  I think that is pretty damn good. My favorite part is when he tells me he loves me and how beautiful I am, even when I look like something one of the cat's drug into the house, and he means it!
So I just want to say to my "Lovin' Man".. thank you, you will never know how much you mean to me, because I can never actually put it into words.

Wise Women

Wise Women

There is one thing that women have, I truly believe this. It is women's intuition. My mother had it in spades. I mean that woman, knew your number the first time she met you. You can ask my family on here, they can attest to it! (well the family that knew her) While I don't have it as well as she did, I did get some extra "umph" from her. Now there are some people on here, thinking coughbullshitcough. Well my friend, you should not doubt. I can get a good read on people the first time I meet them if it is for a significant period of time.. Some of you might want sock that away for future reference...

Oh the tangled web...

Well my little kitties, today's blog is about drama.

Now, who couldn't see a break up coming, raise your hand? I didn't even know anything about them and could see this coming a mile away. When a third party is involved, you know that something is going to blow up. Someone is going to get burned. You would have to be deaf and blind not to see or feel this coming.  I think it is kind of funny, the "oh so sad" kind, not the "funny haha" kind of funny, that an outside couple could see such a disaster coming and the three invovled couldn't.

Now, I know there is more to this than anyone knows, except those directly involved. I also believe that no one is innocent and all involved have at least one finger in that pie! I have theories on a situation like this.

First: If you are a third party in a relationship and you feel and smell tension between a couple.. back away slowly.. when you get to the door, RUN!

Second: If you didnt do anything wrong and it just looks bad, back away slowly, when you get to the door, RUN ~ because no matter how the situation is spun, you are going to be the big fat stinky turd in the middle. The cause of all the strife. The scapegoat. The patsy!

Three: When you become the big fat stinky turd in this totally fucked up situation, you will not just lose the friendship of the couple. You will lose the friendship of all those that you hung around with. If nothing else, all the trust. Tearing apart more friendships, therefore, causing even more drama. Whew... that was alot to say!

Four: If your intention was to break them up, own up to it. You wanted someone and by god, you didn't care who you stepped on to get it. Stand up, be proud, you just might end up with that trophy. Remember though, the grass is always greener on the otherside of the fence, until you realize it is fertilized with bullshit.


Five: The couple in the relationship should try the best to make sure that innocent parties are not blamed, if friendship is all that was involved. Don't ya just hate being a patsy, if you were really only a peggy?

Oh the tangled web you weave when you stick your dick in someone else's wife, or you put your puss on some other woman's husbands dick... or something like that!

You get my drift.. all actions have consequences, make sure they are worth it, in all decisions you make, and that you can live with those decisions with a clean conscious. If you have done nothing wrong, smile and walk on~

My Beautiful Mother

Thanks to my mother:

I want to say thanks to my Mother, even though she is no longer with me.

Thanks for teaching me to be the woman I am today. The mother that I became and the daughter that I hope you were proud of.

Thank you for teaching me to say what is on my mind, brutally honest if need be, but honest still the same.

Thank you for teaching me to love my son the way that you loved Tim and I, with hugs and kisses all of the time and telling us that we did good or looked nice, to build up our self esteem.

Thank you for standing up for me when you thought I needed it, and taking me down a peg when I needed that also.

Teaching me right from wrong and the all about the grey area in between, that life isn't always rosy and that you just have to roll with the punches and or roll up your sleeves and get shit done!

Thanks for teaching me that I have self worth, that no man is worth taking shit from, and that I will be loved for being me and there isn't a man worth it, who treats me like I am less than.

All of these Thank You's, can't even begin to show the love that I feel for you. The appreciation I have for all you have taught me and the loneliness I feel without you.

The beautiful mother I will always remember

Happy Mother's Day~

Like you need a reason...

"Owners of dogs will have noticed that, if you provide them with food and water and shelter and affection, they will think you are god. Whereas owners of cats are compelled to realize that, if you provide them with food and water and shelter and affection, they draw the conclusion that they are gods."

~Christopher Hitchens

Seriously cool!!

~Gotta Have Catitude~

And that says it all!!

The Crazy Cat Lady

The crazy cat lady ~ that is what my "Lovin' Man" said I am going to turn in to. I have been pondering this statement, and decided that I don't know if that is a bad thing! I love my sweet girls. They are so onery and lovable at the same time. The make me smile all day long and it doesn't matter whether they are being good or a bad.

I think that one thing a pet owner/lover knows, that those without pets, don't is that unconditional love that they give. Pets don't even realize how much they do for us, spiritually and emotionally and some of us physically. When you feel down, they seem to know and want to make you feel better, either by snuggling up to you or by trying to make you laugh. Somehow they just know. I wish that more humans had the compassion and empathy that animals have. I wish more humans had the capacity of love that animals have, and that those same humans would share it with others. I think the human race could really take some pointers how from animals.

Now, I also have one cat that is real tempermental. She has CATITUDE! The kind of cat that you buy three different cat foods for and she would be like "I would rather have the kind you didn't buy".. even if she did like the other three! She is Ms Kitty Fu ~ Queen of the House. GlidaBelle is just a mellow cat, who goes with the flow. She is the "Whatever" cat.. whatever makes everyone happy. Then there is Ffiona who is the youngster of the group. I think though that she might try and swipe the title of Queen. We will have to see...

UPDATE: Two more kitties at the corral! I have a Hazel Mae or as we call her Crazy Hazey and when have Lux. I am trying to get another baby.. but hubby isn't really wanting it and I need to take his feelings into consideration. He is such a wonderful hubby, he deserves consideration.

These different characteristic are what make my life so filled with smiles. Pain, sadness, whatever it is.. those little characters make me smile. I am thankful every day for those little meows and growls and sniper attacks.
