Orange Lillies & Carbs


I present to you the random ramblings of my life.

Ask me anything

Day 73: how would you describe your style of clothing

I have a style I would love to have however it appears trough my shopping I’ve somewhat failed to reach it. I suck at shopping for myself so my wardrobe is very mix-n-match. I have a couple super cute outfits but overall I suck at dressing myself!

Day 73: a movie that made you cry

The first that comes to mind is Marley & Me. This was a wonderful movie and I balled my eyes out. It made me think of my boxer Teagen who was taken from us far too soon.

Day 71: differences between you & your best friend

There aren’t too many distinct differences between my BF and I.

Sure we look different. And she’s much stronger than i am in many areas! She’s extremely smart and funny!

Oh and she’s an awesome runner! I wish I could be as ambitious as her!

Day 72: a list of everything you ate today

Breakfast: Peaches & Cream oatmeal

Snack: 2 hard boiled eggs

Lunch: turkey burger, turkey hot dog & homemade baked fries

Dinner: grilled chicken tenders, long grain wild rice, jalapeƱo kettle chips

Dessert: chocolate chip pieces

Day 68: the best concert you’ve ever been to

Sadly, I have not been to many concerts in my life. Of the handful I’ve been to the most memorable is the Kenny Chesney concert I went to last year! Followed closely by the Buffet concert. Situation for buffet sucked but the actual concert rocked!!! :)

Day 67: how you found out about tumblr and why you have it

I actually don’t recall how I found tumblr….

I started using it when I decided one of my goals for 2012 was to start and finish something. I found a 365 day blog challenge and started posting!

I don’t use tumblr for anything other than my ramblings and postings for this challenge. I suppose when I’m done ill probably find a new challenge or stop using it.

Day 66: if you could swap lives with anyone for a day who would it be?

I’m not sure I envy anyone’s life enough to want to live it for one day… I’ve always been curious what a normal day is like for celebrities. They have cameras in their face all the time and really have no privacy. I don’t think I’d like that at all.. So maybe switching with a celebrity isn’t on my list….

I have affection and intamacy issues so I think my ideal life swap for a day would be with someone who is capable of affection and intimacy and isn’t afraid. I would love to know how it feels to be affectionate and intimate just once in life. If I never experience this part of life I feel I will miss out on what the most common exchange of admiration and affection really is. I deprive those around me, who I love, of such intimacies and affection and don’t know how to change it. I’m honest with them so I think they’ve accepted this is who I am. I feel swapping with someone who isn’t afraid of intimacy and affection would give me insite to what im missing in my life. It would give me persepctive and hope!

Day 65: one random fact about you

I have a fake tooth.

Day 64: your best friend is in an accident and you just fought an hour before what do you do?

There is no fight I could have with my best friend that would prevent me from being by her side if she were involved in a wreck.

I cherish her and would be by her side no matter what issue caused the fight.

Day 63: your view on gay marriage

Lets try this again the first time I posted a response to this it didn’t upload..

I absolutely whole heartedly without a doubt support Gay Marriage. Who am I to tell someone they’re wrong for loving someone and wanting to share their life with them? I think it’s beyond wrong for a heterosexual person to tell a homosexual person they’re wrong for wanting to commit themselves through marriage to their partners. Just because they happen to be the same sex doesn’t mean they don’t deserve to be happy and to share the benefits of loving someone.

For the bible bangers out there, who are you to impose your beliefs on me or anyone? Being a good christian means accepting people for who they are no matter what their orientation may be. I would never discriminate against someone who has different skin tone than me, or someone who speaks differently, or has a disease. I would never impose my view of life on someone if they didn’t see it the same way. What makes you any different? Why should gay’s be treated any different? It’s disgusting to me to know there are people out there who are okay with being unchristian and depriving two people who love each other the pleasure of shareing their lives togehter as a married couple. Instead of passing judgement and hating people for something they cant help why don’t you accept them for who they are not what sexual orientation they happen to be. The world would be such a better place if people would just stop being so hateful and judgemental.

We all have our flaws. We all have characteristics and traits that make us unique and different. I don’t choose to be attracted to someone. It just happens. I don’t choose to have hte personality i have it was predetermined when i was created. I don’t choose to have hazel eyes and i certainly don’t choose the health issues i have. Gay’s don’t CHOOSE to be gay.. So for those of you out there who believe it’s a choice open your eyes and wake up. Why on earth would ANYONE choose a life of ridicule and hate? why would someone choose that life? would you choose to be part of a race, or gender or sexual orientation that guarantees a life of hate and predjudice? I don’t think so.

Stop imposing your beliefs and ideas on everyone and just love your neighbor no matter what their sexual orientation, skin color, eye color, etc may be. If you love someone you should be able to marry them and spend the rest of your life happily without judgement and ridicule. PERIOD. Race, Sexual Orientation, Religious Belief should be no matter if you love someone.
