Why can’t Hillary just sit down and shut the “F” up!

I swear I can’t stand to see her on TV talking to a small room of supporters and telling them how she doesn’t quit.  She doesn’t quit.  Brilliant.   The numbers are against her.  The party is divided.  She is looking pretty stupid at this point of the race.  Bill isn’t much better.  He wants back there so bad they had to pull him for awhile just so he would shut up. 

Is there anyone else out there that finds her unwillingness to “give up” a problem?  Why would I vote for someone with so little judgement as to be unable to know that it’s time!  What is wrong with her? 

Why in the world would this country with all it’s problems want to sign up for 8 more years of the same crap.  Democrat, Republican, same shit, different views.  Both sides operate the same way, but they just have different viewpoints about the issues.  America is so ready for an Independent candidate.  If someone who kicked ass got into the race, they would have one hell of an opportunity to impact this race. 

I so want Obama to be different.  I hope he is.    He seems different.  He seems so common sense.  He seems like he really can make a difference.  Damn I hope he can. 

People have said to me that he doesn’t have enough experience.  I really don’t give a shit about his experience.  In fact, I find his lack of experience exactly what we need right now.  It’s not like there aren’t plenty of people surrounding a president that can help to advise him.  His only job is to make the decision.   He appears intelligent enough to do that. 

Just seeing Hillary on TV anymore makes me want to puke.  What about loosing in the numbers, popular vote, delegates and super delegates does she not understand??  Now that John Edwards has endorsed Obama, you would think that she would finally step aside.  10 -1 she doesn’t!?!?!?! 

Oh Yeah, by the way, I am an Independent!  AND YES WE CAN!!!!!!  GO OBAMA!

Namaste!

 

I love Shayne and Matt together!

So, Izzy actually watched the bachelor this season.  Yeah, I know, but I really loved Matt’s accent and got hooked from the first episode on.   I only half assed watched since I had the TV on while I was surfing the net anyway, so it isn’t that bad! 

Then again, by mid way through the season, I definately had gotten hooked.  I really didn’t have any favorites throughout, but I did like Shayne more than the others.  She seemed very cool and less small minded than some of the other ladies.  I really had started rooting for her by the hometown dates episode. 

I thought they had great chemistry together and she seemed so laid back and cool about the whole deal.  A part of me wonders if it is real, but really so what if it isn’t.  It was entertaining and fun to watch and I am sure they both had fun throughout the season.  Even if they aren’t really in love, I still liked watching them together. 

So, why do we want the fairy tale ending all the time?  I seriously can’t make myself believe in that crap anymore.  So, jaded is how I look at the fairy tales.  And I won’t feed them to my kids.  I would love to have them grow up minus the lies of all the bs we were told as kids.  You know…white picket fence, dog in the back, 2 kids, flowers, sunshine, and happiness abounds.  That is so bullshit I can’t even stand it. 

That said, I still can’t resist the fairy tale endings and the happiness that appears to be happening when the story ends.  I don’t believe in it anymore, but I still love to see it. 

My daughter got the movie Enchanted and we watched it.  It was great, but I made sure to tell her that while we love movies with happy endings, we shouldn’t expect it in real life.  Now, I certainly don’t advocate negativity, but I also don’t want her to grow up expecting a prince charming.  Come on now ladies, we all know that the prince is strictly for the movies and our imaginations.  Sucks, but we all know it’s true. 

The reality varies for each of us, but I think we all can agree that whoever we get, he certainly isn’t a prince.  IF you have one, PLEASE let us all in on where the hell you found him!!!!!    

Anyway, I hope Matt and Shayne have a wonderful time together for however long they are together.  That’s it for now folks!  Remember now Different is the new black, and if you like what you read, buy me a Caramel Mach!!!!

Namaste!

 

Who Is Izzy Martin Anyway?

I sort of feel like breaking into song ~ The Joker by the Steve Miller Band ~ Remember that?  YES I did just totally date myself!  (Maybe ~ maybe not?)  I’m a joker, I’m a smoker, I’m a midnight toker…I sure don’t want to hurt on one.  So, if I wrote my own lyrics, how would I write them?  Hmmm something else to think about!!  

I’m Izzy.  And I am crazy.  (Hi Izzy ~ your response)  I live in the middle of nowhere, and with gas prices so damn high right now, I just don’t have anyone to talk to anymore.  So I figure I will start a blog and talk to myself and anyone who wants to read my random comments about things in the world, things in my secluded strech of the universe, and whatever else that pops up in my head.  (which really could be the most interesting of all!) 

So, I live in the midwest on an acreage surrounded by corn fields.  Yes, as I look out the window of my little farm house, I am surrounded by space with little else.  I have two children whose sole mission in life is to make me insane. (actually more insane than I am already)  I have a husband who thinks I am crazy, but he loves me anyway.  (which is really something when you look around at relationships today) 

We have horses, dogs, cats, and plenty of other animals that I most likely don’t want to know about.  I stay at home and take care of the kids and animals, and generally go crazy insane on a daily basis.  My husband is on the road during the week and home on weekends, so it’s just me and the kids during the week.  When the kids are at school, then it’s just me and the dogs.  We hang ~ so would they be my posse?? 

I used to live in a city, with a 6 figure salary job, starbucks coffee, cool shopping, and sophisticated friends.  So what the hell happened here you’re asking???  Yeah, me too.  I am still working on how it all came to be that my sophisticated friends turned into 4 legged dogs, but I’m not obsessed with it.  It is what it is, and I am where I need to be right now, and que sara, que sara as Doris used to sing…   But I will tell you this, those dogs, they really got my back and I am pretty sure that when I walk away, they aren’t talking smack about me!   

So, that’s if for now about IZZY.  Now I am going to rant and rave about shit that probably isn’t that important, but you never know something may resonate with you.  Enjoy my blog, and if you really like it, buy me a Venti Caramel Mach!!!!! 

NAMASTE!!!
