Such a big fan of...

Paranormal State

My family laughs at me. I will not watch scary movies. Friday the 13th....the house at the corner or whatever it's called...no way! I don't dig the whole blood and gore thing, but I love a good spook. =)

But this show I am totally digging it. Because honestly I do believe in ghost, but the good kind. In one way or another I have always felt something. In the house I grew up in I could always tell something was wrong with my parents when I would hear creaking around the house. I would hear footsteps in the hallway, it never scared me but I heard it. In a way I thought it was someone protecting my family and watching over my parents.

My first apartment strange things would happen, for example: Mark's brother was visiting one weekend and they had ordered Pizza. I always make a big stink about putting away the pizza. Well OK imagine this, the pizza box is sitting on the counter but all the pizza is turned over. They thought I did it, I was like I wasn't even here. Dorks.

Then I bought my first house. My bedroom faced the back yard but my back yard spooked me out so I would never open the curtins. You know how you just get that errie feeling. Then this one time I was home alone but you know how you could sense you weren't home alone. I told Mark about this and he didn't want to spook me out but he had said he saw a little girl in the hallway turned away, looked back again and she was gone. SPOOKY huh. Nothing harmful but she was always there. If it were just us that saw this little girl big deal, but my kids had seen her and so had other visiting relatives.

Now on to the current house I live in. I love my house. I hear footsteps, the wood cracks a bit, but I love my house. Is something there? I think so. I see shawdows all the time, does it spook me out. No not really. Sometimes whatever it is hangs out with me in my scraproom. Things fall for no reason. I just look over and say "Not now I am working." HAHAHA My son walked in on me once and asked who was I talking to, I looked at the chair and said my friend. LOL.. he looked at me and thought I was crazy.

So I ask this...is the whole San Fernando Valley haunted, or is it just me?

Yeah too much coffee this morning, but it's getting the brain working. I know I shouldn't drink coffee but I really need to stay awake for today's meetings.

sticking my tongue out at the world

Do you ever want to do that? Tell the world…OK take that! You aren’t going to bring me down. No you are not.

Saturday morning, another team run. LOl don’t laugh so get this, I logged in a total of 24 miles last weekend..yeah jaw dropper huh, you read that right 24 miles. This weekend we had our own version of a half marathon with the team, 13 mile fun run. And it was fun.

I had gone out on Friday and bought the most awesome pair of running shoes. I know I know running shoes? It’s a disease, this marathon training stuff. But them check these beauties.

Pretty aren’t they. I wore them on Saturday and oh my feet felt so comfy and cozy. =)

Came home and decided to relax a bit, I turned on the WE channel and started watching The Locator. Have you seen this show? I was in tears the whole time. The thought of reuniting families just brings me to tears. I know families have secrets for whatever reason but I am a firm believer that if you are looking for someone or wondering how they are doing..reach out to them. Think I will contact Troy Dunn, there is someone I have never met but I hear they exist and I would love to meet them. *sigh* now I am in tears just thinking about it.

So after all my afternoon crying I went out Saturday night. YIPPIE. My former co-worker Kevin made a life changing decision, he sold everything he had here in the states and is moving to Brazil. WOW is all I can say. I had a blast at his going away party. He had the most gorgeous Samba Dancers and I loved just hanging out with old friends and laughing the night away.

Sunday, Sunday, it’s supposed to be a lazy Sunday right? Not on your life. That never happens to me. From doing laundry to grocery shopping I decided I wanted to go to the movies! I’ve seen the commercials for Monsters vs. Aliens and it just looked adorable. I got my youngest to come watch it with me. It is as cute as everyone says, and for once I am happy to be named Susan. LOL.

And the best movie EEVVAAHHH "Spirit of the Marathon". Spirit of the Marathon is an amazing film that follows the lives of six runners preparing for the Chicago Marathon. Each runner had a different reason for running, this film goes from start to finish. It is an amazing documentary, while watching it I truly felt connected to each and every runner. There is a quote I will never forget "When you cross that finish line, no matter how fast or how slow, it will change your life forever." This is so true! Another one that I totally loved "I Know, I'm Slow, GET OVER IT." That is my quote, going to get some t-shirts done of this. LOL

I've gotten a few feel good emails this weekend. Really bringing back my confidence in myself. Snicker snicker will talk about it later.

So I thought I'd give it a shot

I'm now on Twitter. I mostly added my celebrity gossip sites and a few scrapbookers. In a way I don't get it, do people reply to your post? How do I update from my phone? Do you want to know when I am sitting on the toilet thinking? Do you want to know when I am laying on the sofa chopping on my gallon of strawberry ice cream? Or better yet do you want to know about my stink eye? I've been perfecting my stink eye..it's pretty scary if I should say so myself. LOL. Umm... Twitter..well see.

I'm off, I have the day off tomorrow..YIPPIE...going to enjoy my day of scrapbooking and oh yes must go running shoe shopping... oh maybe I should twitter about that. LOL.

You know what...I may even pull and all nighter..scrapbooking all night long. Can't remember when was the last time I did that. OH YUM.. I hear an alcoholic beverage calling my name..must relax..must drink..ooohh can't wait. =)
