#OccupyTogether: The Best Among Us

#OccupyTogether: The Best Among Us

There are no excuses left. Either you join the revolt taking place on Wall Street and in the financial districts of other cities across the country or you stand on the wrong side of history. Either you obstruct, in the only form left to us, which is civil disobedience, the plundering by the criminal class on Wall Street and accelerated destruction of the ecosystem that sustains the human species, or become the passive enabler of a monstrous evil. Either you taste, feel and smell the intoxication of freedom and revolt or sink into the miasma of despair and apathy. Either you are a rebel or a slave. […]

Choose. But choose fast. The state and corporate forces are determined to crush this. They are not going to wait for you. They are terrified this will spread. They have their long phalanxes of police on motorcycles, their rows of white paddy wagons, their foot soldiers hunting for you on the streets with pepper spray and orange plastic nets. They have their metal barricades set up on every single street leading into the New York financial district, where the mandarins in Brooks Brothers suits use your money, money they stole from you, to gamble and speculate and gorge themselves while one in four children outside those barricades depend on food stamps to eat.

Speculation in the 17th century was a crime. Speculators were hanged. Today they run the state and the financial markets. They disseminate the lies that pollute our airwaves. They know, even better than you, how pervasive the corruption and theft have become, how gamed the system is against you, how corporations have cemented into place a thin oligarchic class and an obsequious cadre of politicians, judges and journalists who live in their little gated Versailles while 6 million Americans are thrown out of their homes, a number soon to rise to 10 million, where a million people a year go bankrupt because they cannot pay their medical bills and 45,000 die from lack of proper care, where real joblessness is spiraling to over 20 percent, where the citizens, including students, spend lives toiling in debt peonage, working dead-end jobs, when they have jobs, a world devoid of hope, a world of masters and serfs.

Everything is better when you add a little me ;)

So lately I have felt like I needed a bit of me time ( you know those days when you haven't changed outta your pjs and realize you need to get you act together). I decided that it was time for a little change in my world so I painted my toe nails (which I love to do) and I went to the market and grabbed a box of brown hair dye.
Well platinum blonde to brown normally goes over pretty easy, but nope! Not for me! I waited, rinsed and dried  and what did I get? MOLDY GREEN! Oh MY! So I sent hubby out to get another fabulous box for me and fell asleep on the couch.

The next morning I dyed to my hearts content and amazingly it all worked out! Chocolate (mmm that sounds good right now) brown hair with blondish streaks.

XOXO,

Balancing Act

The art to balancing a family, schooling and a home business is a hefty task. I still wonder how some women do it and with such feyness. Makes me wonder sometimes what the hell I could be doing wrong the makes my day so unproductive! Maybe if I started a day planner (which by the way I have tried in the past and it has always been forgotten after about three days!) or maybe a chore chart for the kids to help out around the house? But then the question is how to get them to complete said chores without a horrid fight. Oh how I wish I was rich and could hire a maid to help, but sadly I am not and life continues on in this un orderly fashion till the next time I need to vent!

New Hello kitty custom sunglasses!!! I had so much fun making these!!

I have Forgotten.....

How amazingly awesome 80's movies are! I watched Sixteen Candles last night and enjoyed every minute of it! From the cheesy acting to the super fantastic music and clothing. I wish we could travel back in time and relive the 80's all over again!

 Sixteen Candles!

And another classic Weird Science!
