A long time ago I read you were bisexual. Having once been on the psych path in majors, this was a subject that fascinated me and my ex husband and I debated about extensively. And, as most people are aware now, there are few in this world that are 100% hetero or homosexual, and that there really is a spectrum to what we are attracted to, etc.
When did you know? Do you feel you lean more in one direction or is it pretty much down the middle? Have you been in a relationship with a woman? And how do you plan to share this part of yourself with your daughter, or explain this aspect of you?
Answer: I have known I was bisexual since I was 7 years old. Yes, 7. Growing up I never just liked boys or girls, always equally liked both & once I hit high school, although I only dated guys back then, I always found the girls just as attractive. Now that I'm 36, I am very secure in who I am and the people I chose to spend time with & I find that although I am still very much Bi, I have only ever 'dated' women, no serious relationships with any as of yet & continue to date men but find it's the guys I have meaningful relationships with. Currently dating a very sweet, very handsome Chinese man named Al (aka:Chan, if I mention Chan, that's who I'm talkin' bout). As far as sharing this with my daughter, ABSOLUTELY! When I feel she's old enough to understand... 4 years old? Not quite there yet.

Not a real personal question but-- what happened to the rest of your novel?? I still think of you whenever I eat a Nilla wafer!!! (one of my daughter's favorite cookies!)
Answer: My Novel has taken a very long hiatus and although I do plan on finishing it one day, I just haven't been in a mood to do so as of late. I already know how things are going to happen & where the road is about to take Alice & Jess... just can't speculate on that right now & I sincerely apologize to those who were truly getting into it as I'm aware I've let you down... trust me, PROMISE keep reading the blog & one day you'll start to see chapters re-emerge, SCOUTS HONOR! (used to be a girl scout!) hehehe

Are y'all watching the Olympics???
Answer: Yes, we did watch the opening ceremonies and certain parts of the Olympics, but truth be told, we didn't watch them all. House doesn't clean itself if I'm choosin' to sit in front of the tube all day ya know? And trust me, TiVo is a GOD SEND cuz otherwise I'd be livin' in a trash heap & NEVER seeing ANY of my shows that I love! =)

You're kidding me?! Floyd, Cohen! You are down, Scarcella!! I in my poor little state have been sorely (and I mean sorely) deprived of internet access. This sorry situation is about to be remedied permanently. HELLS YEAH.
If we're layin' out cards then I guess I've always wanted to know how you found the money for your 'doption?? Did you save for like, ever? or get a little help from the famed Nonna and Nonno?
Answer: I saved money from Nannying but obviously, even the contents of my 'life savings' wasn't enough so I made extra money by doing phone sex at night. Was bringing in $200/hr. And for those of you thinking "OMG WHY ISN'T SHE STILL DOING THAT, THAT'S GOOD MONEY!?$#$" There's the issue of a short cute set of impressionable ears about & I'd really rather not explain THAT to her. LOL Bisexual, sure... phone sex? NOT SO MUCH!
I guess I have a really good 'phone voice'. Now, not that I've talked naughty to any of you but for those of you who HAVE talked to me on the phone, you can attest to the voice, yes? LOL
No lie, JUST NOW took this pic of myself after my friend straightened my hair (just for shits & giggles to see what it would look like...) and I shared this pic via cell with a friend of mine & THAT'S WHAT HE SAID!>%#$^
I'm sorry, did you just say my head was big? A BIG HEAD? Seriously? Naw... you must be mistaken! I know he didn't just say THAT... !?!?!?! *SMACK*
As of today, August 17th, 2008, I have OFFICIALLY taken my BEDROOM BACK!
No pack & play...
No toys...
No puzzles...
NO trace of toddler, PERIOD!
Not that I don't love my little girl, obviously that goes without saying,
but I REALLY LOVE HAVING MY ADULT SPACE & I've finally RECLAIMED MY BEDROOM!
My bed is no longer against the freakin' wall. It's in the center of the room directly underneath my gorgeous print of 'Starry Night', where I can now look up & lose myself in it till my eyes close & the dreams begin...
I also did TONS of laundry & the last load is in the dryer, CAN I GET AN AMEN!
(and by 'tons' I mean at LEAST 8 loads or MORE!)
Whole house is vaccumed from top to bottom, dusted every surface, not a trace of a dish anywhere in sight (even the dishwasher is empty!)
Don't ask, I generally LOATHE cleaning, but every once in a blue moon (looking out window to check for hue') something inside me SNAPS and I HAVE TO SPEND THE WHOLE DAY CLEANING & RECLAIMING MY HOUSE!
Did it, DONE!
Also, what this means for miss Ruby is that as of tonight, SHE IS SLEEPING IN HER OWN BIG GIRL BED (my old daybed from back in my high school days) and SHE WENT TO SLEEP WITHOUT SO MUCH AS A PEEP & WAS COMPLETELY OK WITH IT!
Thank you GOD!
Sorry no pics as of yet but still don't own a digital camera & the only one I have (my cell phone) is charging so you'll all have to do your best to use your imagination.
Until next time...
...perhaps because I honestly don't have much to write about except the same old same old... sad huh? I suppose when one is faced with such a dilemma one opens up the floor for questions, although I've always been such an open book that I doubt there's a soul among you who hasn't already found their answer to whatever it is they were wondering, in GRAPHIC detail in one or two of my past posts. LOL HOWEVER, that having been said, if you ACTUALLY DO have something on your mind that you've always wondered about & were too shy or just lurking & didn't want to ask, by all means, please- SHOOT!
No question too personal & all will be answered. I believe in censorship but here among 'INVITED' friends is certainly NOT the place. Ask, & ye shall receive.

ps. Ruby is doing wonderful... I can't believe her birthday is just about a month away. WTF is THAT all about@?#$%% Man, how time flies!
