Forever. I know I've said that a million times but I only have so many brain cells and if they get spread too thin it's not a good thing. And my life is on the ever-lovin' verge of change, as we speak. It's teetering, like...what teeters?

What happened was, as I was making a u-turn in this one shopping center I saw these words, bright and glowing and sparkly: NICKEL MANIA!It appears to be sort of a Chuck-E-Cheese thing but you don't have to be a child. There were adults in there, playing. Lots of video games!

He was shooting folks one by one. It was creepy.I'm glad in my dreams I seem to realize that I have choices. I fare much better in my dream life than I do my real life. Being shot seems to be a recurring theme for me.

Finally! This is exactly how I feel! I can't believe I found this. I stole this pic off a guy's blog but I'm sure he won't mind. But THIS SAYS IT ALL. Just in case you needed a visual....but only in the physical realm. In the Unseen Realm I do just fine. In fact my superfly efficiency in the Unseen Realm could actually be what hinders my progress in the Real World, cause it satisfies http://tryingtousethehorsesoapeveryday.blogspot.com/2008/03/blog-post_9285.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Amy Ripsaw)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7723351401386980814.post-3464713124199760719Wed, 05 Mar 2008 08:40:00 +00002008-03-05T03:17:21.947-06:00Well it looks like I'll be getting back into the health food stores. Work, I mean. Selling herbs. The very thing I decided not to do anymore, after what happened to my head. After all that I've adopted a new attitude: it's not my problem. Your health issues, that is. Because would it even be right to go back to selling supplements and telling folks what to put in their bodies when I was hit http://tryingtousethehorsesoapeveryday.blogspot.com/2008/03/blog-post_4538.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Amy Ripsaw)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7723351401386980814.post-654748974055095968Wed, 05 Mar 2008 06:46:00 +00002008-03-05T00:58:12.033-06:00*sigh*...my grandmother.If you knew her you would know what I mean by that sigh. That's the only way to describe her. One sigh says it all.I'll try to be nice as I tell you what she did today.Today in the paper there was an article on west nile. It talked about a woman who barely made it, she really had a hard time with it. It got her good. Well guess what my grandmother did today. Just guess.SHEhttp://tryingtousethehorsesoapeveryday.blogspot.com/2008/03/blog-post_05.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Amy Ripsaw)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7723351401386980814.post-2633760658717010399Tue, 04 Mar 2008 10:40:00 +00002008-03-04T05:13:50.502-06:00I can't tell you how much I love youtube. It always has exactly what I need, and tonight I wanted something to do with an old farmer in a church, to go along with a vision I had in '05, and lo and behold, the most perfect video! Made me tear up a little. I've been doing that a whole lot lately. But about the vision~I saw a small country church, then the inside, a small congregation, the pastor http://tryingtousethehorsesoapeveryday.blogspot.com/2008/03/blog-post_2937.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Amy Ripsaw)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7723351401386980814.post-855600609391323594Tue, 04 Mar 2008 09:22:00 +00002008-03-04T03:39:25.372-06:00I'm happy, yet confused. Happy that I finally figured out how to post videos on here, confused because my original intentions for this post have gone from Jesus to the Backstreet Boys to this awesome guitarist (see video).I wanted to tell you about a vision I had about a year ago, I was still pretty messed up from my brain blowout, I was laying on the couch one day praying, and I saw Jesus in a http://tryingtousethehorsesoapeveryday.blogspot.com/2008/03/blog-post_04.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Amy Ripsaw)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7723351401386980814.post-2988214351852705568Tue, 04 Mar 2008 04:23:00 +00002008-03-03T22:47:29.797-06:00For some reason I'm thinking about the Sunglass People tonight. I mentally named them that. They were customers that came into the vitamin store I was working at back in '01. All I know is, I was minding my own business, when this big fat motorcycle pulls up and this couple, all leatherbound and wearing dark sunglasses walked into the store. It was hillarious. Because for one thing, they looked http://tryingtousethehorsesoapeveryday.blogspot.com/2008/03/blog-post_5468.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Amy Ripsaw)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7723351401386980814.post-1668965738555945984Tue, 04 Mar 2008 02:16:00 +00002008-03-03T20:34:20.474-06:00well of course I'd have a stomachache now. I saw it coming but I did it anyway. I didn't "fold box into platform" when I stuck my dinner in the microwave. The strangest thing ever. I had already ripped open the box and removed the contents, only to discover that you're not supposed to rip THAT box. No, this box is supposed to be folded into a "platform" upon which you place your thing (I still http://tryingtousethehorsesoapeveryday.blogspot.com/2008/03/blog-post_03.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Amy Ripsaw)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7723351401386980814.post-8202742250615180026Mon, 03 Mar 2008 23:21:00 +00002008-03-05T21:00:38.177-06:00Ok this is it and I mean it this time. I have two blogs that I'm going to keep alive, this one for all of my average, pointless thoughts, and this one http://ijustcantgetenoughofthis.blogspot.com/for my important stuff, I need to keep it separate I think. Like how responsible folks sort their trash, paper from plastic from glass, etc.I'm very average today. Actually I'm below average.
