The 5oz Foodie

So today I received a very sad phone call from a life long friend. She was checking on me to see how I was feeling and then ended her message by informing me that my favorite Monkee, Davy Jones, had passed away at 66 years young of a heart attack. Immediately I tore myself from my bed and ran to the computer to see if it was true. Alas, the headlines all spoke the truth. I immediately begin texting friends of the passing of the Manchester Cowboy, the cute short Monkee, our Daydream Believer. When I text my friend in Cali she replied back with how weird it was that we were just talking about him last week, and as I look back that wasn't the only time I spoke of him last week. I was so looking forward to seeing him at the Flower Power Concert series in May, but that time will not come. I spent the afternoon watching videos about the Monkees and reading about him online. The photo I have added above is from his Flower Power Concert Series performance at Epcot on 2008, my 1st Flow...

Woke up with an upset tummy, called in and then slept for 4 hours. Woke up with a migraine and its taking its toll on me...

I write this for me so I guess I need to speak my mind. I am drowning... I feel like I am out of breath, exhausted. I love my job but I don't feel challenged. I don't feel like I am learning anything new. I know I can't go backwards, correction I refuse to go backwards, but going forward is a waiting game. I need to find something to be passionate about again. My best friend says I am fried... sometimes I wonder if the happy pills are doing their job anymore or maybe this is how I am meant to feel. I know I can't be the only person that feels this way, it's just I feel like I am fighting a losing battle right now. If I go back and read the past 57 days I know they are so up and down and I know this past year has been an emotional roller coaster in it self, but I just don't know... Usually you come back from vacation refreshed and ready to go again, but I just am not feeling that way. musicsongbird

Don't miss out on a good thing because of fear. As many of you may or may not know, I work for a huge family entertainment company and we are trained on how to deal with every kind of situation and how to assist different guests with said situations. Besides Guests with Disabilities and language barriers we also cover celebrity guests. We are to treat them like anyone else, not make a big deal of out their presence and make them feel comfortable. So.... Ok, I was at LAX preparing to fly home to Orlando and we were forced to board a bus and be driven out to the middle of nowhere to a plane hanger of sorts to board. Well, they loaded as many of us on as could "comfortably" fit and we started off across the tarmac. As I was talking to my friend I noticed standing right behind him was Lauren Potter (Becky) from Glee. I was immediately start struck, but I tried to keep my cool. I made eye contact and smiled to the woman who was with her, I believe she is her mom, but never...

When did we stop having free will? Why is it that when something bad happens to someone, it is always someone else was the cause of their downfall? Example..and I will probably be shunned for my opinion but Whitney Houston's death. I have heard from some many people that it is all Bobby Brown's fault that she died. He was the one that gave her drugs and alcohol and she was good before him and he just made her bad. We are all born with a thing called free will, so we can make the choice between right and wrong. I am not saying her death isn't tragic, because it was but who are we to blame someone else for the choices we make? This is why we are seeing so many people blaming others for their problems they have in life. When I was a child I acted like a child, but when I became an adult I put away childish things... isn't blaming others for our own mistakes a childish thing? It's time to to grow up and take responsibility for ourselves. That is why I am taking re...

Home sweet home and bed sweet bed..... For losing three hours I am exhausted.... Beauty is all around you if you chose to find it.... Look within first... Love, peace and stay away from things fried in grease.. Musicsongbird
