Sayings
I love mom's sayings.
I heard a new one....
"Yolandita pisas el sapo"
I responded with a "que??"
and looked around me to see if I was stepping on something
....no sapo near me.....
She had me really confused.
Even my dad didn't know what she meant. He said that it must be a Guanajuato thing. Guanajuato is tierra de los sapos.
Apparently, it's a saying my abuelito used.
so on another day I told her
"hoy no pise el sapo....
......lo aplaste!"
haha

Justice for the Uninsured
I must admit that the medical field has disappointed me on several occasions.
"On average in Illinois, hospitals are charging the uninsured 200 percent above costs," said Paul Gaynor, chief of the state Attorney General's public interest division. "What this legislation does is it brings the actual charges more in line with the insured."
But I'm happy to report this new law will take effect April 1, 2009
Thank God!!

Electricity
Although the posts have been less frequent,
I've been writing
feverishly
all
this
time.
The electrical storm is eternal,
It's given birth to a song
to kiss 2006
goodbye
It's now generating creative pulses on FM airwaves
The electrical storm is eternal
...giving pleasant electrical shocks to
systems saturated with stagnation.....
stay tuned.....
stay tuned for the next burst
from the electrical storm....

Goodness
I was trying to describe "biscotti" to someone ( I couldn't believe he didn't know what a biscotti was?! and he's European!!)
so I came up with this:
a stick of goodness...yummy goodness ;)
Makes for an excellent dessert
when you don't want anything too sweet or heavy
and usually around 100 calories per stick/biscotti

Hole in my tummy the size of a ...donut hole
When the Universe and P conspire
and don't let me have
a chocolate donut
on a frosty night....
The Universe
snatched it out of my hands,
I shrieked
as it bounced ...
rolled on the floor,
and P
gave me a good scolding.

Soul Dancing
I was listening to
my beloved Jeff
a couple of nights ago.
It's been such a long time since I've listened to him.
Listening to him
is a spiritual experience....truly.
That voice
manages to awake your soul
in wonderful ways.
Transporting you to other worlds.
Merging you with the Universe.
It was fitting that I was listening to
"new year's prayer"
that evening
since it was the Chinese new year.
Gorgeous song.
"feel no shame for what you are
feel no shame for what you are
feel no shame for what you are
fall in light ...fall in light"
It almost cleanses your soul
to begin anew
(Limpia in a song?)
perhaps that's why he called it "new year's prayer"?
When I hear such brilliant work.....I miss him.....miss the new songs he could be creating.
I felt him guiding me to the Tibetan mountains
my soul was dancing ....in the air ....in the light
thank you Jeff Buckley ....wherever you are......wherever your light has traveled.

Negotiation
So he asks me, casually, like he was asking me for the time
"Can you give me some vicodin?"
"NOooooo!" I think to myself ......but I actually say "What? huh?"
"Can I have some vicodin? I get these aches." He proceeds to tell me how he had some old vicodin at home or was it that a neighbor gave him some old vicodin? Or did his neighbor steal his vicodin? Either way, he tried the stuff and wow....... "It really relaxed me."
"No shit it relaxed you" I think to myself.
"So can I have some?" he inquired again
"Wait a minute. What kind of pain are you having? Where is the pain?"
I find out it's more musculoskeletal strain/aches. That kind of pain I rather not treat with vicodin. Sorry Sir. I can give you some high dose Ibuprofen and some Flexeril which will help those aches AND not make you addicted to some narcotic.
I am not a narcotic pez dispenser!!

Slips
I was trying to order an ultrasound

a Lover ultrasound......

correction:
Liver ultrasound
The "i" and "o" are sooo close

Off My Chest
I need to get something
off my chest
....................FOOD!
I keep dropping pieces of food
down my blouse...
an olive,
a piece of lettuce,
most recently
a piece of tortilla
Soon I could have a whole meal
down my blouse !
(but some might say ...ahem ...
that I'm already a "meal" sans the food )
At least it hasn't happen
when dining out at a fancy restaurant.
I try to be careful
but maybe I need a bid ...
(or blouses that have higher necklines)
There....I feel better that's off my chest ;)

Love ...take 2
As the petals gently fell,
I was showered
with love.
Romance blooms
even when we can't
grasp it in our arms.
He had not
forgotten me.....

what do we become
when we can't
get what we want
who we want
do we become
whores?
(where anything is better than nothing)
or do we become
"nuns"?
(where nothing is better than any old thing)
