I find the ordinary about some people to be extraordinary. Average can be amazing when handled properly. Imperfection sexy when embraced.

hi
- i hate double standards…
- guys don’t want a girl who does the same stuff they do, living by their rules…
- yet and still, guys also don’t want to do the old fashioned things that men should do…
- so i am confused. and it is a wonder that men complain about the chickenheads they end up with because i don’t know a single real woman who is going to put up with that.
- how do you want a girl who can be freaky in bed but don’t want a girl who has done freaky stuff with other guys?
- how is it that you want a girl who needs you but what an independent woman who doesn’t ask you for a thing?
- this is not to say that woman don’t do the exact same thing.
- one of my friends likes to say that if you want a person to behave a certain way you have to do the same for them… so if you want an aggressive person you need to be aggressive.
- but what if i want someone who is just aggressive enough to compliment my passiveness? someone who is decisive enough to make up for my indecision?
- What is wrong with wanting someone to fill in the gaps?

untitiled
i raise my glass to the pain of not knowing
and gulp to fight the fear i have to ask
i clean the mirror in hopes of seeing myself clean
when i need to windex my eyes… bleach my mind
my soul trapped inside a cell
inside this shell worn by my heart
battle…

I don’t have to be your every thought but I need to be your first thought as opposed to an afterthought.

Dear Happiness,
We seem to be having the typical turtleberry romance… where we dance around the subject and sometimes ignore the feelings until we can’t anymore and fall head first… only for it to be too much too soon or not enough or just not what we thought it was.
I…

A letter to my ex…
Dear past love…
And I would like the record to reflect that I was in love with you. Any comment you thought was a joke when I talked about us getting married was not. I could see it. Some days I could reach out and touch it because it was that real in…

A letter to my future husband…
my love,
This morning I wished so hard that I was waking up in your arms… or at least next to you. If we are married then I know that you are indeed truly something special. I want to thank you for taking the time to try and understand me. I don’t for a…

Day 272 ~ Why don’t guys like to date anymore???
- Why don’t guys like to date anymore? I mean seriously.
- So I found my younger alter-ego. It is amazing… I would be her if I had gone that route.
- I need to work on my bigger blog… randomness & pictures… (www.turtleberrypress.com if you are curious at all…)
- My kid is now playing soccer. I am excited. Well except about all the shit I now have to buy.
- And why is PUBLIC SCHOOL so damn expensive?
- I had french fries and gravy for lunch twice this week. Fuck you all and your judgment.
- Back to the dating thing… I am meeting guys that I really kinda like and want to get to know better… that involves dating… not coming over to each other’s houses late at night just for sex and as little conversation as possible.
- My co-worker is making me go up to the work out room with her. Pray for my lazy ass yall!

Depression is…
Depression is:
- the ability to find fault in your reflection… no matter what anyone else says
- the soundtrack of your mind being all your mistakes and harsh words from others on repeat
- never allowing yourself to climb to the peak of happiness because you are afraid of the fall back down to the darkest place you have ever been
- not being able to come up with anything to live for
- being able to come up with something to live for but being able to come up with a reason why he/she/it would be better off without you
- being angry with no one but yourself
- feeling lonely in a crowded room
- playing & replaying scenarios in your mind
- being so afraid of loss that you can’t bring yourself to love
- being exhausted from pretending to be normal all day
- second guessing every decision you have ever made
- trying to teach your child to be happy when you have no clue how… and feeling like a failure
- not wanting to burden anyone with your problems… no matter if they can help you or not
- pain
- darkness
- carrying your demons in your backpack… on you… at all times… no matter the weight of them…
