Goth Daisy and more Black and Whites ~ For What's Next Girls

Soooo... "The Aunt' over at What's Next Girls was talking about Black and White pictures today, and I am also a huge fan.  I just took this one last night....

I thought Goth Daisy was a pretty good title for it, what do you think?

I got a new app for my iPhone recently called Instagram.  It's pretty cool and I can take a picture, add a filter to it and post it to FB, Twitter and Instagram lickety split... unfortunately I can't post them to my blog as easily... so if you'd like to see them, please follow me on Instagram I'm @ChaRoo on there - I'm also going to start sending them to Flickr - I just set up a Flickr account under Cha_Roo, some rat-nose already stole my handle, can you believe it?? I'm totally loving this iPhone.

Anywho, I went through the archives because "The Aunt" was talkin about B&W pics to see what else I could find, and here they are, hope you enjoy!  Thanks for the idea "The Aunt" - Hahaha I guess I need to figure out your name eh?  :) :) :)  BTW, the funny thing, is that I only know her as "The Aunt" because that's what "Jennifer" her niece calls her over at Wild and Precious whom I also enjoy reading.  Check them out if you get a chance.  They're good people :)

Without further ado... more black and whites...

Hope you enjoyed them!  Char

Ponderings

There's a lot of crap in my head right now and I want to get it all out, but I can't seem to get my thoughts together.  Here's a list of some of the stuff I want to blog about, but haven't yet:

1 - Getting pulled over on the way home from work Friday night by a cop by a motherf'er that said that I had road rage and at the same time I was on the phone with OnStar having them contact the cops for me because this guy was freaking me the hell out.

2 - The Lemoncello drop martini that I made myself promptly after getting home Friday.

3 - Still upset/sad/moping/depressed about my ex being pregnant, and I'm not.

4 - Money issues that are pissing me the hell off ~ mmmm probably won't  be blogging about that, but it's on my mind anyway, so there.

5 - Rushing around on Saturday morning and making myself appetizers for breakfast and not being able to eat them because of my lap band.

6 - Why my ex-boss never asked me to make coffee for him again.

7 - How another ex-boss complained about how they have no money and then go on a two week trip to California wine country among other ridiculousness!

8 - The great smoked oyster challenge

9 - Squeak and her food issues.

10 - My first time making falafel from scratch, and the recipe.  WIN!

11 - My hair and the annoyance it causes me on a daily basis, plus the cut I just got on Saturday.

12 - Baby carrots.

13 - Staying in bed until 12:30 on Sunday.

14 - Cooking (drying out) an eye round on the big green egg on Sunday.

15 - A word on religion and did you know that some Jewish temples charge people to go there on the High Holy Days?

16 - Mass mailed resumes and my awesome bosses.

17 - Things to do to fight depression.

18 - How the world is too PC these days and how I want to move to California so I can embrace the "Do what is right for YOU ideal".

19 - How people balance the "Do what is right for YOU" ideal when the whole world thinks they are more important.

20 - How you really SHOULDN'T talk about really personal stuff with your bosses, especially health stuff, because it ALWAYS gets thrown in your face.

21 - How I gave my dad three time out chances last night before I was going to send him home in a cab and he only used 1 1/2 of them.

22 - My thoughts on Breaking the Cardinal Rule in the office.  

23 - How all this crap (and other crap) in my head has me very overwhelmed.

Hello and Thank YOU!

I just wanted to say hello to anyone who's wandering over here from Ramblings of a GreenYogurt!  Green was very kind to answer my questions and she mentioned my blog in her post, which was very kind.

So Hi to y'all, hope you make yourselves at home!

I have like a billion things in my mind that I want to write about but I haven't found the time, so i'm making notes.



Today, I want to say that I've decided that I need to pull myself together and get some things in order. I need to do something different.



I cant seem to focus sometimes. A lot of the time. More of the time than I'd like to admit out loud.



This has got to stop.



I am one of those people who gets something in her head and goes with it... for the last two years it's been... not in a good way.



It is affecting a major part of my life now, and I have to get a grip on it.



/fussing



We're going to dinner at The Shack tonight. We were supposed to have pulled pork sandwiches, but we both had crappy days, so we're going out.



I'm fine with that.
