IYRKM....

....that what Miss Tia said is my MO, too

....that I will forgive up to the point where my own forgiveness becomes self-abusive or self-flagellation

....that, we accept the abuse we believe we deserve*

....that, although I'm often a blockhead, I'm not interested in being a martyr

....that I like to have fun, that though I'm sometimes a loud-mouth, I actually like to live tranquilly and pretty much do





*adapted from RitaSink's favorite quote

IYRKM That I put my hand in yours to walk beside you ~
When I look up into your eyes , it's to follow your lead ~
That I admire hym, cause hy thinks for himself ~
A follower loses my attention ~
Once respect is gone, my heart closes ~
I read btwn the lines ,not the way u make your words appear ~
I don't care about others quotes, I watch who you are instead ~

If You *REALLY* knew Me...
 

You would know I am fiercely loyal once I commit to someone or something.
That I would do anything for my family and friends. Even those I may not like I would not turn away.
That I am a very strong woman with the innocence and vulnerability of a child lurking right below the surface.
That I am not religious but very spiritual.
That I collect stone specimens and believe they have healing properties.
That I always wanted to learn Kama Sutra.
That being bitten gently on my neck is a major turn on for me.
That I love animals and have a cat named Punkin. He was a stray. I have had him almost 15+ years now.
That I would never buy an animal but adopt ones in a shelter.
That I refuse to attend a circus because they treat the animals horribly.
That I wear fur...Imitation that is.

If you really know me...
 

... then you know that:

- I find striking a balance more important than being too high or too low.

- I know my strengths and limitations in an acute, cognizant, type of way.

- I thrive when I feel loved, liked and adored for who I am.

- I am more than ready (for whatever life brings next).

- I have to have chocolate on a consistent basis (*lol*).

- I will smile, even when I don't feel like smiling.

- I care, even if it seems like I don't care at all.

- I need a better bed than the one I have (sheets, too).

- Nothing irks me more than what's going on in our country right now (political upheaval, wealthy business owners taking their business overseas and treating their workforce employees like slaves, loss of viable job markets because greed takes precedence over social accountability; I have to stop now, I might blow a gasket - I'm fresh out those little jewels today). :|

if you really *knew* me, you'd know that..

I am not who I was two years ago

I hate shopping for myself

I adore dresses but rarely wear them

I LOVE my age

I've made decisions that I hope another parent never has to make

if you really knew me

you would know i have a tender heart and a tender soul
you would know that my broken heart
takes time to heal
you would know that solice is my only reprieve from this
you would know that i feel like a fool right now
you would know that i dislike liars and game players
you would know that i dont like misrepresentation of self
you would know that i will be all right because im truly strong
you would know that i beleive i keep meeting the same coward over and over with different names...

IYRKM You'd know I've been using the same ol coffee cup everyday for years. It has cracks, chips, stains, and the face of a Bull-Dog that says, "This is my mug."

IYRKM you would know that

I am cranky lately, with so much stress from the store. Lots of hours, lots of paperwork, lots of decisions, lots of physical pain from doing too much

I am also happier than I have been in several years

I coloured my hair blue black and wear magenta lipstick now

work as hard at home as I do at the store

cannot, for the life of me, balance a checkbook longer than a month

IYRKM...

You would know I am a wrist watch whore. I perve on total strangers if they have a better watch than me.

My collection is extensive. I saw a white ceramic Michael Kors watch on the girl I bought my pack of cigarettes from today that I immediately went home and bought on eBay because I adored it.

My moral dilemma will be that I will have a hard time wearing it because the Tissot I bought last weekend might feel jealous.

if you really knew me
you would know i don't take kindly to being lied to
you would know that Im smarter than i look
you would know that I spent 8 years to many with a master manipulator
and ill call you out for your shit
you would know that im stronger than you think
you would know that I believe in Karma
you would know that I give people the benefit of the doubt
you would know that I probably shouldn't
you would know that Im sincere
you would know the reasons i had chosen celibacy
you would know that im choosing that again
you would know that this week has taken its toll on me and its only Wednesday
you would know that when i say im done, im done and im done
you would know that honesty,integrity,values and morals are important to me
you would know all that
you would know that my favorite movie is Somewhere in Time
you would know how much my family means to me
you would know that my granddaughters are the apple of my eye
you would know that i can turn a negative experience into a learned lesson.

If you really knew me, you'd know that I reached my breaking point and you'd know why.

I Y R K M

you'd know that a little earnestness goes a long way with me.

you'd know that people who never fuck up make me suspicious.

you'd know it isn't perfection I admire in others, but progress in the right direction.

you wouldn't mistake my self-depracating humor (I was raised by Texans), for low self-esteem.

you'd know how much I value and seek out environments where I can be myself.

IYKM you would know I am very happy, blessed, and grateful.

If you really knew me...

You'd know that I'm really good for blaming myself when any ties I have with someone proceed to go south.

You'd know that I tell myself that I really did know better, but I went ahead and did it anyway.

You'd know that I would say never again, even though what was right before me was the exact thing I had been waiting for.

Sue

If you really knew me.. then we'd both be in the dark.

If you really knew me, you'd be a little worried.

IYRKMYWKT:

I am so in need of a hair cut and that is the norm for me. I can never seem to get around to going to the hairdresser

I look hot in leopard print

I love cosmos flowers in stands against a fence...it makes my heart smile

I change my mind ALOT

I wear nag champa as my scent unless its a society evening..then its Samsara

I have recently begun to wear all kinds of green shades on my fingernails...

If you really knew me you would know how crazy forgiving I am. I can't stay mad or hold a grudge ever. Sometimes I wish I could though!

If you "REALLY" knew me...

YWK it's all good cause I'm wearin' a smile!! :cheesy:

just a lil something from me
 

If you knew the real me you would know im more comfortable outside then in.
If you knew the real me you would know why i cling to my work and my horses.
If you knew th real me you would know that i stand alone where ever i go.
If you knew the real me you would know the hell i been through and the pain i have to take apawn myself so noone else would get hurt.
if you know the real me you would see the scars that are faiding just like the past.
if you knew the real me you would know the kind heart that is under the cold unfeeling outside.
If you knew the real me you would see past all the bs and see the soul who looks for a place to belong.
