Emotional soup By Laura Tidwell

I have a recipe for the tastiest soup

And when you get a taste

You’ll first lose it

Then regroup.

Take a smidgen of vanity

A bucket of tears

Cut up some anger,

And shred up the years

Add in the moments of sweetness in life

With  a pinch of spicy  fantasies

Then  pour on the whine.

Stir in the wisdom, those nice onion pearls…

Now pass over a bowl , and lets give it a whirl!

Facebook rocks!

Do you know how cool Facebook is? If you don’t, read this, you’ll understand. I got on a forum on facebook, that was devoted to people who had fond memories of my old elementary school,  I told my story about that year, that I had my brain surgery…and about the people at that school who positively changed my life.Well, I got directed where to find someone  I have been looking for for 15 years! I just found my best friend from third grade! She was in the fourth grade, and I was in the third.Her mother was the best teacher I ever had. She was my third grade teacher. She tutored me after school, and she had my school’s whole third grade and fourth grade write me get well cards when I had my brain surgery. Her name is Natalie. I have very few memories of that year, but I remember that Natalie  played with me after school, and her mother would eat lunch with me at School. I was a special needs kid, I had the seizures…well, we were friends 17 years ago, and for 15 years I have been looking for her,and today I found her! I can not believe it! I am so excited I am can’t breathe!!! Anyway, Facebook rocks! I know I repeated myself, but this is tremendously exciting for me!

Barnacle Bettie!

Hello again everyone. This is a picture of charlie and I. We were headed to Boomtown on Christmas day ! BoomTown is a casino in Ocean Springs, Mississippi. I don’t know if you can look at my lip and tell, but I had just gotten a gigantic fever blister! I hate getting those things. Now I have had them since I was a little girl, I inherited them from my mom. It makes it very difficult to aspire to something like modeling when you can have a flare up at anytime,and look like the lovingly assigned nickname I stumbled upon my first year of college, Barnacle lips…which I then translated to Barnacle Bettie…Mine finally went away from that flare up…but I am up at 6 am, and thinking about getting a medicine, that permanently keeps those things in check…On another note, the food was amazing at Boomtown. Charlie friend’s came with us. I don’t have permission to put one of the friends’ photo up, and don’t have a photo of the other one, so I will just keep them anonymous…I will tell you that, this was a fabulous day, depsite my painful and obvious feeling swollen lip.
