Gluten Free Bread

Gluten Free bread as a whole sucks MAJOR ass. It's dry and icky. I found that making penini sandwiches with the gluten free bread is the ONLY way to tolerate it lol I made myself a nice turkey and pepper jack penini sammie. It was quite good. I used Ener-G Light White Rice Loaf. It's Wheat free, Gluten free and Dairy Free. I have come to the understanding that gluten free bread has a shelf life of one year for a reason. It tastes like saw dust when not toasted lol So that's my gluten free tip for the week lol

My head is gonna blow up!!!

WOW Gluten free living is an entire lifestyle change. I was walking through WalMart last night and almost started to cry. The more packages I read the more depressed I got. I didn't pick up ONE thing that I could eat. Everything seems to be made with gluten. I now have to shop at over priced specialty stores that have gluten free sections. I went to a place called "Clarks" and they had an entire wall of gluten free stuff. Again I almost cried. For the first time in a few weeks I almost felt human again. Like I could eat anything I wanted ....from that wall of course. I went there for pizza crust and got pasta and cookies too. The cookies taste like sand but hey there's chocolate in them lol It was great to see that we can eat the same types of things just different brands. I'm still heart broken about never having another In-and-out burger tho. I'm sure my waist lie on the other hand is thrilled to never see another one of those things again. lol I'm sure it didn't help my crying fits that I am also on my period lol Hormones AND lack of gluten? Back away from the crazy lady!!!!

Glutenn free...YAY ME!!!

I haven't felt "good" in years. Seems like I overall just never feel good. I always have yucky tummy problems, headaches,fertility issues,moodiness, numbness in my legs and a host of other things. FINALLY we may have figured out wtf is wrong with me. I'm allergic to gluten. YAY!!! for figuring it out, right? WRONG! Not in my family. In my family I pretty much come last as it is. I don't really mind anymore. It's called life. My family is now pissed off because
when going out to eat with them I can't eat the same things I used to. So that upsets them because it's just me being "difficult" or something. My mother actually LAUGHED at me when I told her and informed me I was stupid and just going through the "change of life". Which is horrible for someone who wants a baby so badly. Does she care? Nope. Never has and never will. So here I sit in my office fishing shrimp out of the pasta dish my mother sent over. I was off gluten for a few days then by my own stupidity I had a crustini which of course has bread on the bottom. I did one of those "a little bit wont hurt". I got sicker than I had been in a long time. I went online and realized that eating gluten after having been off it for awhile can make you really sick. Lesson learned. A little bit can hurt. My aunt got mad at me because I got sick and said I wont be traveling with her anymore. I'm still new at this G-free thing. Give me a break. So pretty much my family is unhappy that I have to be G-Free. I have been totally off gluten a full week now and wow I feel great aside from the cold I picked up from my aunt's grand baby. lol This will be a work in progress for awhile and it seems it will be a work I have to do alone since my family is as supportive as a training bra on my 34DDDs. I am just so happy we may have found out what's been making me so sick. I honestly was afraid that I was dying and that I'd never know why. I told my mom I was afraid I was dying and she told me that we are all dying everyday we live. Which is true but it's just scary when you think you're doing it faster than everyone else.

Real Parents Vs Fake Parents

I was reading a few different blogs about Michael Jackson's children (yeah I know don't hold it against me)and I kept seeing that people feel the need to know who the "real father" of MJs kids are. Simple answer .... MICHAEL JOSEPH JACKSON is their real father. A real father is someone who loves you, cares for you,takes care of you , feeds you, clothes you, provides for you and any number of other things. I don't understand why biology is so important. I view it the same way as I do adopted kids. Their kids are just that THEIR kids. I mean are adoptive parents just glorified baby sitters til the person who popped the kid out feels like raising it? NO they are parents. If MJ had legally adopted the kids in the public eye no one would be saying anything. OK wait that's a lie. No matter what these kids would be in the spot light. OK so what MAYBE he used someone Else's sperm (maybe he didn't)that's between him and the donor NOT the general public. ok So what about sperm donors? I would hate to think that all the guys I knew in college who donated sperm to buy ramen noodles for the month would some how have rights to the products of their donation. Or could be sought out after years and told hey this is your kid say Hi! Why can't these kids just be left alone. Their dad is the man who loved them and raised them. Plain and simple. It's so not the publics business.

You must Love me....

LMAO It has come to my attention that in order to travel with me you HAVE to love me. I am a spoiled pampered princess when it comes to travel. First class ALL the way. I have never carried my own bags and in most cases I have never unpacked my own bags. I did a bit of modeling during the World Series of Poker and in the process I snapped these pictures of my suite (which I shared with my photographer/bestfriend). When I get into shooting mode things like organization go out the window. After looking at the pictures I'm shocked that he has dealt with this for the last SEVEN years of traveling with me. He puts up with this WILLINGLY. Is he fucking crazy? lol I will admit I did have to clean this mess up myself. *gasp*

The lil one is getting married

WOW my "lil sister" is getting married. OK so she's marrying a total douche bag but who am I to tell her not to marry him. I wonder how much a divorce costs now days. *sigh* So now I have the wonderful task of buying her a gift. I refuse to buy "them" a gift. She loves jewelry but doesn't have the money to buy herself anything really nice so I guess that's what I'll do. But what do you buy the goth chick that has everything? lol I'm way too busy and lazy to sit around searching the web all day so I went to http://www.shopwiki.com/wiki/Jewelry+and+Watches

One stop shopping guide. W00t! It can't be anything too "trendy" since she is all miss gothic. OK I am oober spoiled now. They even have "tips" for shopping on a budget and heavens knows we're all on one of those now. http://www.shopwiki.com/wiki/Jewelry+on+Any+Budget not sure if I want CZ. I mean she IS getting married. Holy crap when you search it pulls up items from all sorts of stores on the web. Kinda like a personal shopper. I feel like Britney Spears lol I say what I want and BAAMMMM there it is. I see a lot of my xmas shopping being done here. OK I've narrowed it down sorta lol I'm getting a silver hammered cuff bracelet. Just not sure which one. Here are the choices http://www.shopwiki.com/silver+hammered+cuff

Beach Babe

I am just way too Californian for my own good. I got to spend some time on beautiful New Port Beach before returning to Las Vegas. The beach is the best (and worst) of what mother nature has to offer. I spent hours jumping and laughing as the waves rolled in. It was a much needed relaxing vacation. The beach was packed but even so it was still peaceful. I'm in the process of detoxing my life and there was just something about at one with nature in the water that was so calming and amazing.I could never leave California totally I love the beach too much. Gotta love any place where I can eat at Ruby's on the peir and turn around and go to yoga at 5:30pm lol

WalMart....Home of the Creepy!

Going to WalMart in general is never a good thing for me. It's even worse when you do it in the "hood" at like midnight. NOTHING good can come of this. I went to the local Wally World by where my mom lives. OY There is a special sort of shopper that goes to WalMart anyway but it's a whole new story when they are going in there at like 12am. Not only did I fear being murdered, raped, molested or thrown up on I feared the insane amounts of unattended drooling/sticky children roaming the store in search of entertainment while their parents sifted through the mountains of cheap shit that they don't need and shouldn't be buying in the first place. Sadly it is illegal to tar and feather the parents of these wild monsters. As I walk through the store searching for tampons and chocolate I have to step over and try not to kill myself on pallets of merchandise that some how made it from the back room to the middle of the floor. REALLY!??!?! The middle of the floor? UGH. I get my items and walk to the check out stand. Equal opportunity employment at it's best or worse depending on who you are. If you are going to work with the English speaking public you should be able to SPEAK ENGLISH!!!!! I would have even been happy with a check out girl who spoke Ebonics. But noooooooooooooooo I get the spanish ONLY speaking bitch with an attitude bc I didn't understand what SHE was saying. My purchase was $8.40 I hand her a $10. She takes it closes the drawer and looks at me. I said my change. She says in her BEST broken english "no change". 10 minutes later she and her manager figure out that I am owed change. I grab my stuff and leave. The parking lot is yet another battle ground. 5 steps outside the door a man runs up to me asking if i want to buy DVDs from the trunk of his car. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaa no asshole go away. A few more steps and I'm asked if I'd like to purchase a watch from under the coat of a rather shady looking man in a trench coat. I am just happy I made it to the car alive. No more late night trips to walmart.

Shoulders Back...Show the Rack

I'm sitting here watching Drop Dead Diva on Lifetime. Not sure I like the show yet. I hate that the skinny woman dies and is soooooooooooooo upset about being put into an average sized woman's body. YES i said average. Size 16 is average. She keeps looking in the mirror and seeing her new round face and gets all sad and depressed. To me being a size 2 isn't "healthy" and in most cases doesn't actually look good. I think I'd be more upset to wake up as a size 2. That would mean I would have small boobs no hips and no booty. All things I love about myself. I could do without my puffy tummy but I'm working on that. I just can't understand how being a size 2 is oh so much better than being smart but with a thicker wasitline. Tho I do think I have my new tag line "Shoulders back....Show the rack". I think I will keep watching to see what direction the show takes. Woman CAN be beautiful and not be a size two just as people can be ugly and a size 2. Thick chicks can and ARE sexy. Stick figures ...well they're stick figures and who wants to play with that?

WTF is wrong with women today?

I'm sure I'm gonna sound VERY 1950s but I don't care. I was in the post office today. There was a girl there with her husband and her mother. They were joking around about how the daughter has NO home making skills what so ever. She can't cook she can't clean doesn't know how to change diapers or anything else. Her reasoning was "I'm only 25". She laughed that "cooking" to her was frozen dinners in the microwave. What is it with so many women under the age of 30 that do not know how to cook from scratch? My bestfriend and I loe nothing more than cooking for those we love and care about. Heck we even make pancakes from scratch. (1 egg
1 cup flour
3/4 cup milk
2 Tablespoons oil
1 Tablespoon sugar
3 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt)
It is just beyond me that a woman wouldn't know how to cook for her mate. What happens when these types of women have children? Do they feed them McDonalds when they pop out of the womb? I'm not saying take out or fast food is "wrong" but don't you want to be able to cook your own food and know exactly what is in your food? If you can't pronouce it chances are you shouldn't be eating it. Now days you can cook a meal in less time it takes to get a pizza and for about the same price. Even if you have to work and don't havemuch time you can toss something in the crock pot on the way out the door and it's ready by the time you get home from work. With sites like http://www.5dollardinners.com/ and http://crockpot365.blogspot.com/ it's easy to make healthy and fun home cooked meals for your family at ANY age.
I find that men look at me oddly when i offer to cook them a meal or bake them cookies. They seemed shocked that i know where the kitchen is let alone HOW to use it. Has the art of cooking been lost on our current/next generation of wives and mothers? Hell I even made home made babyfood for my friend's son. (http://crockpot365.blogspot.com/2008/08/how-to-make-baby-food-in-your-crockpot.html). I guess I just think in some ways it's "ok" to have "women's work". Do i think a woman should know how to cook for her mate and children? OF COURSE!!!! I think men should know how to cook as well but I can't speak for them. I don't have a penis. I only know how I feel from a female point of view. Learn to cook ladies. Quit making the rest of us look bad.

I laugh ...I cried....and cried some more

I like millions of others sat and watched the Michael Jackson memorial. I thought it was a fitting tribute to an amazing man. I think so many of us forgot that Michael was a dad. That was a part most didn't get to see and if we DID it was viewed as something "odd". Paris put a more "human" face on the day. MJ was a father. A father who loved his children and who's children loved him. It was sad yet freshing to see. MJ was not only an entertainer but a damn good daddy.

World Series of Poker BABY!!!

I got a chance to watch Daniel Negreanu play in the WSOP. I love him. I do believe he might have ADD or ADHD lol He was up and down all through the tourney. Walking back and forth signing autographs and reading in between hands. He does it ALL so well that it makes it just a bit more entertaining lol Whatever he has he's damn good at what he does. I also got a chance to watch Annie Duke play in the H.O.R.S.E. tourney. We all actually shared a laugh. There was a rather tall man standing in front of the clock so no one could see it. Annie made a comment about how she didn't pay to SEE the clock or anything lol sarcasm LOVE IT! Well Andy Black started in on it too so we were all laughing bc the guy was just standing there. The guy walks over to the watch Annie play and saying that he was the guy standing in front of the clock. Annie was like wow I like how you just confronted what we were all saying. She ended up signing his poker book and we all had a good laugh. He was totaly a good sport about everyone talking shit about him standing there. The whole vibe of the WSOP is a fun one. Right now the Main Event is going on. SHUFFLE UP AND DEAL BITCHES!!!

Feeling Old and Sad

WOW I'm sitting here on the couch watching conflicting reports about Michael Jackson. I was so upset about Farrah and sad about Ed Mcmahon. WOW I grew up watching all three of these talented people. I'm kinda numb right now. I had the Charlies Angels dolls....wanted to be on Star Search and started taking dance classes bc Thriller was the coolest thing I had ever seen. I actually took dance in college taught by a woman who was IN the thriller video. I thought that was the collest thing EVER. I remember when I thought 50 was "old" Now I sit here and just think 50 is so young. How things have changed over the years. This is a sad sad day for the world. My prayers and thoughts are with all 3 of their families and children.
