I wanna’ gooooo…….

DANG IT! Dang it!  My husband is going to Colorado in May for a conference and I would be able to go but I am committed to being in the play. The week he is going is hell week for the play. There is no way I can go. I want to do the play but I want to go to Colorado. I will keep my committmet to the play but I am so bummed. I guess its for the best – we will save a little money on a plane ticket. I wish I would have known….
 
I have been a blogging fool today. I just feel like writing. I have been trying to study (reading) for the class I hate, and I did a little gardening before the rain came in. I guess I am kind of scatterbrained today.

Jealousy and vindictiveness rears it’s ugly head…

There is a sort of jealousy which needs very little fire; it is hardly a passion, but a blight bred in the cloudy, damp despondency of uneasy egoism.
George Eliot
 
I like that quote about jealousy. Most jealous people have the biggest egos that need constant attention and they are uneasy if they feel less than others or disliked (even if the dislike is justified).

Isn’t it curious how someone who is jealous and vindictive likes to blame others for their own lack of reason and good behavior. It is also curious to me how they will accuse the people who dislike them or refuse to put up with their BS of the very same jealousy and vindictiveness they themselves feel. Maybe they ought to think of the fact that reasonable people just get tired of them and their BS and would like to 1. show the jealous asshole that they are not fooled by them and their games, and 2. maybe teach the jealous asshole a lesson (by not putting up with their BS, confronting them, etc) or two for their own good; so maybe they will get over their petty jealousies and vindictiveness and become a real person and stop the madness (for a jealous and vindictive person like that hurts the people they love the most and rarely hurt the people they intend to).

 PS I just love George Eliot, she has the best quotes!! I must read some of her novels.

Antique Baby Portrait

I have been watching a lot of PBS lately. They have had some superb shows. A couple of nights ago I caught "Antiques Roadshow" They had this woman on who had a baby portrait from around 1830. The baby in the portrait is so adorable, and the portrait is well done. I love it so much that I have to put in my blog to save it.
 
 
 
 
I like the fact that the baby has one shoe off and one shoe on. So cute!

Love this movie…

Here is a link to a review of "Sense and Sensibility". It is coming out on DVD, yeah! This is a great adaptation of Jane Austen’s novel.
