Banned From Youtube again
SO ONCE AGAIN YOUTUBE BANNED THIS VIDEO!! FUCKERS. SO THIS IS THE GOOGLE VERSION TILL SOME BASTARDS STOPS THAT ONE AS WELL. YOU CAN DOWNLOAD FROM GOOGLE
So I decided to take Tracy Chapman over to see what she could come up with for Nan and Kitty.
Her words have been so wonderfully ideal for Sue and Maude I was unsure if she would transfer over to the more raunchy Tipping The Velvet.
But once I got going it all just came together. The longest part was the making of the last 2 minuets love scenes!!
Also did not help that I could not upload it right away as my internet down.
But I have to say I really think I got it all together on this one. So I guess I am going to move this one up to the top of my list of my favorites.
What do you think?

Fingersmith "Be Careful Of My Heart"
Fingersmith
So this is my 6th attempt at a video. I decided to go back to Fingersmith, which was no easy feat after enjoying doing the Tipping Video so much.
But I knew that alot of people wanted me to do another Fingersmith. So how could I deny them!?
Needless to say I went back to what I know works for me with this film, namely I used Tracy Chapman again for the vocals.
Once again her song is ideal for the love story of Sue and Maude.
And once again I notice that I make Sue the victim or the hero which everway you look at it, Sue as far as I am concerned is the best character in this book, movie.
I mean if you look at all the crap that Maude put her through and then she still takes her back.
That takes a lot of heart and love and forgivness. So you go Sue!!
And hopefully those who don't like Tracy will forgive me for going to the well again. But as stated in an earlier blog, you can't teach this old dog! new tricks!!
I will be working on another Tipping video next, and hey if I'm lucky it will get banned again!!
Enjoy

Tipping The Velvet "Back In Your Arms"
CENSORED TIPPING THE VELVET
Ok so maybe you can keep a good lesbian down!! Once again Youtube bowed to the narrow mindedness of one person and banned this video again!!! So I have uploaded it on Google and can be found in my blog.
You can't keep a good lesbian down!!!
Do you see what I did to censor it for the narrow minded pricks who got me last time.!!!
Of course no gurantee it will work but you can't say that I have not told them up front what is coming up.
I mean if you see a warning like that, and then you still go and watch it and get offended by it then I'm sorry your a fucking moron!!!
Just don't stop people who want to see this stuff.
Youtube is not just in America, it is an international medium.
America is the only place where you would find such narrow mindedness towards this.
Jesus, over here you can't even see a nipple on tv without it being frosted over!!!
God forbid a kid may see a nipple, did they not suck on one when they were a baby?
More than half of the worlds population have them?
For the love of the god that you all are so sure is going to save you if you censor and make everyone as miserable as you.
Get a life. If you are trying to find stuff on youtube to report why not try under the search of orgasam. I know there is a whole load of videos out there of straight womens faces as they have the big O!!!!
I guess that is ok! But I ask you this, if there was a nipple thrown in to the mix do you think it would have been reported?
FUCK NO!!
I honestly hate narrow minded people who are so hateful in the name of their god.
My personal hope is that if your god and your after life as you believe it to be is actually there, then I hope that your god turns to you when you come to the gates! and says.
Sorry you can't come in. I did not teach you or want you to be so hateful in my name. So therfore you are to spend eternity with my old buddy the devil. Enjoy and don't forget your suntan lotion, make sure to get the really high spf!!!
But wouldn't that be a kick in the ass!!!

Pissed Off With Narrow Minded People
Well I have to vent, so figured what better place than here!
I got up this morning and turned on my computer, signed onto AOL and saw an email from YouTube saying that my Tipping the Velvet Video had been removed for inappropriate content!!
Bastards, cock sucking mother fuckers!!!! Sorry I know I swear a lot but to me this is the very best concoction of swear words to say when really pissed off, you can really get yout anger out! Try it!! Bastards, cocksucking mother fuckers!!! See doesn't that make you feel better? I know I do.
Well no I'm not, I'm really pissed off about this. I mean I put "R" rated warnings up on it, so it was not like it was a surprise.
It's not frigging porn, but there are straight videos of people having orgasm's, and getting licked out, but I haven't seen them banned!!
This is clips from a BBC Production of a bestselling novel. It's not Debbie does Daisy or anything. Ok, yes some of the clips were a bit raunchy the way they were edited, but even so!!
What is more annoying is that I am currently without my computer so I can't even go in and watch it at home!!! So I am even more determined to get my computer back today so that I can re-upload this again. Because people should be able to see this.
I am beginning to think that it may have been someone that I sent a link to either from blogspot, or one that I commented back on another Tipping Velvet video and sent that video as my reply.
Who ever you are, you need to get a life, instead of touring around Youtube looking for 5 minute videos that offend your ridiculously narrow minds and flagging them so that people can not see them, just because you don't like it.
Or you know what, go and find a video you do like and watch that, and leave these videos to people who want to see them, I mean at last count there were 600+ people who had watched it!!
I curse you, you narrow minded, homophobic, Jerry Falwell loving mother fucker.
I will not be kept down and will put it back up there again!
Thankyou for listening to my vent, now please go on about your day!!!....

The Things In Life I Never Thought I Would Say I Had Done!!
Currently I am out of work so I am up in the air what to do. Go back to corporate America if their have me! Or try and find something that I know I will love and stick with.
So when I saw an ad for a job as a Vet Tech Asst in the paper I jumped at the idea. I have worked in a kennels before, which will feature in the second part of my story!!
By the way maybe you didn't know that these blogs are your story time. So if you want to grab a beverage of your choice and relax then knock yourself out, actually don't knock yourself out as I will then be writing for no one!..................................
...............................................Once again back from a digression, but don't say I didn't warn you. I like to think they are trips into cul-De-sacs of my mind!!!! Damn can I get deep at times or what?!
I hear you saying Kate for the love of the god that you don't believe in tell us the frigging story will you!!!
Ok! No need to get snappy, obviously some one needs to take a nap after story time!! :-)
Long and short of it!! Yeah like I could ever tell a story in a short version.
The vet offers a course where you can learn to be a vet tech assistant. She will teach you everything that you need to know to work in a vets, and if she likes you herself she will hire you.
To see if I thought it would be what I would like she offered me a chance to come over one day and hang out.
So today was my day. Up at 5.45 am Yippee Quick digression.. I am not a morning person!
At the vets at 7.40 am. Well today is her surgical day, which she had told me about. I was a little nervous about how I would react. Would I pass out, smack my head on the floor and be concussed for days, possibly suffering amnesia!! Or would I throw up all over the poor animal we were operating on.
Well I am pleased to say that I did neither.
But what I did do was on a list that I had figured I would not have to pull out in my life. I mean the name of the list is "Things I don't ever plan on doing in my lifetime!
But today I got to scratch off one of them.
I got to pluck a cats balls!!!
What the fuck? I hear you say. Suddenly a little more interested in the story now aren't we?
Yes I did say pluck a cats balls.
The cat was obviously a male, or I guess there could be an hemaphrodite in the animal kingdom. But for the sake of the story we will say it was a male cat. Actually the name probably would give it away Brutus!
Well Brutus was indeed that. A big brute of a tom cat. He was going to be neutered and declawed, which my personal opinion on that as a cat lover is INHUMANE!!
Anyway back to big balled Brutus. The tech told me that I needed to pluck the fur from the balls so that the Dr could slice em and yank out the testes.
Well of course what's going through my mind is... Ok I see a little initiation for the newbie, lets see if she'll pluck a cats balls. I said don't we shave them? No, the Dr likes them plucked.
So I began a plucking!!! Amazingly they came out kind of easily. Oh just in case you were wondering about my safety. The cat was under anesthetic.
I consider myself to be some what of a cat whisper! But hey I don't think even I could have talked the cat out of scratching my face to shreds as I pulled each ball dangling hair!
So now you can see why I can cross that one off my list. By the way I also got to watch a toe amputation and also a tumor removal, and of course the de-furring and de-balling of Brutus!
I did on my return home from work have an issue with Frosty my cat that I will tell you about in another blog, sitting infront of my monitor. So I looked at him and said "You may want to reconsider that, as I now know how to pluck your balls!" Being the Prince of the house that he is! He looked at me, blinked once and sat on the keyboard!!
But I can always use it on one of the others!!
definitely think this is the job for me.
Now to the second part of my story. Does anyone need a bathroom break before we start?
Ok, Jones hurry up!!...................................................... There's always one!!............................................
Ok part 2.
I used to work 5 years ago at a kennels, the only job I have ever loved and actually worked on little sleep, or a 102.7 temp, normally if I am 98.9 I'm calling in!!
But I loved this job. As with the vets this is where I got to cross off another item on the same list.
I got to put a diaper and suspenders on an Old English Sheep Dog!!!!
I know you think I'm making it all up, trying my creative skills out in the realm of fiction writing. I wish I could say yes I was, but it is infact true.
She was an old incontinent dog , who needless to say used to pee in her room. So we would put the diapers, regular human depends! on her. But she would mange to get them off. So I believe it was the owners came up with the idea of the suspenders. She would have different colors for each day. And at Christmas she would have ones with snowmen, Christmas trees and Santa.
I kid you not.
Now I think that if you had not already come to the conclusion after reading my blog so far that I was a cool chick. You would have to give me this one, I mean really how many people do you know or think you may meet in your lifetime that can say.
1. I plucked a cats balls
2. I put diapers and suspenders on a dog.
Think about it, see you can't think of anyone can you?
So that therefore moves me up a notch on the cool chick scale! And also means that you have to come back to my blog to see what other crap I have done, or am going to do.

My First Attempt At Making A Fan Video
FINGERSMITH THE RIGHT WORDS VIDEO
1ST ATTEMPT AT VIDEO
I had just watched Fingersmith, and like anyone who has ever watched it I fell in love with it. So I decided to do a google search on it and happened on Youtube and the Breath me video. Well I loved this video so much I watched it a number of times a day.
Well I got to thinking, I had attempted to go to college for filmmaking 13 years ago, but had dropped out, yes a regret now!!! But in the past...
So I thought why not try my own hand at this stuff. I had the windows movie maker on the computer thanks to Bill Gates inclusive XP software!! So I thought I can do it, if it looks like shit then I can trash it and no one would be the wiser.
So I went through my music library on itunes and seeing as I love Tracy Chapman so much and her lyrics are so well written that they tell a complete story, and as if by fate they seemed ideal for the relationship between Sue and Maude, these 2 wonderful charcters that I had fallen in love with. So I found this song because I mean could it sum up the whole concept of this movie better?!?!
So from the song and a lot of time infront of the computer and learning rapidly things I could and could not do with the software or lack of knowledge. I came up with this little video.
I liked it and figured lets put it out there for the world to see, and if I get shitty responses then I need never do another one again.
Instead I got emails and comments with nothing but compliments about how people loved the fact that the words matched the clips.
I had noticed when I first started watching these fan vids that a lot of time it is just clips of the movie in some kind of a chronological order with a song that may or may not match the scene or the characters or the original storyline. Now I am not knocking you fellow vidders. I like the vids.
I just myself am more drawn to doing a literal interpretaion with my own story in my mind as to what is happening to the characters through out the video.
Now I could go into more detail on each video about my ideas for my own personal storyline. But will not for now but will if I am asked!!
So enjoy my first venture into the world of fanvids.
ENJOY

My Second Attempt At A Fan Video
Fingersmith The Promise Video
This was my 2nd video. I just love this song and figured it was the ideal one for my concept of this video.
I wanted to show that through all the crap that Sue was put through, she still loved Maude. I got a little better in the editing, all though had not completly mastered it, but this did give me a nice try at somethings.
The only thing that bugs the shit out of me is the ending scene with the glove on the bed, I had wanted to end on the glove that I had made a feature in the video as Sues link to Maude through all the shit, and then when they do get it on the gloves come off to release Maude from her trapped life at Briar.
So I wanted a great shot of the glove as the titles roled as the un-named co-star I guess you could say. But unfortunatly in my haste to get the video up on Youtube, I didn't take the time to make sure that the clip I used was the same as the one in the video.
I infact used one I had been messing with to try out the softening and contrast controls. So I think it looks like shit but have no way of going in and changing it.
So accept my aplogy now, but the rest of it is really cool, I promise!
Get it the title of the video is
The Promise!
Will my talents never cease to amaze you!!
Enjoy.!!

My Third Attempt At A Fan Video
Fingersmith Crazy Love Video
Ok I got the feeling from the FOCFUC group that maybe they were getting a little pissed off with Tracy Chapman.
So when it came to making my 3rd video I didn't know what to do. I listened to all kinds of songs but Tracy.
When I listend to this classic Van Morrison it came to me how I could incorporate this into the storyline of Maude and Sue.
It was not the most popular of my videos, but some people seem to like it.
I know I do just purely for the hot kissing scene at the end under the titles!!
Enjoy

My Fourth Attempt At A Fan Video
Fingersmith Open Arms Video
This is my 4th attempt at a video, once again I went back to Tracy Chapman as again I point out how her words are just so perfect for this storyline between Maude and Sue.
I played around with the special effects a little, still getting used to all of them.
Over all I like this video. It is one of my all time favorite Tracy Chapman songs.
I just wish I had someone to sing it to!! Ok well maybe not sing because I don't want to scare her off!! But I could mouth the words to her and let Tracy add the voice!!
But enough of my pathetic existence!
Enjoy.

I just don't get snakes or spiders
So there I am today happily sitting on my ride on mower, my neighbours Bose headset on my head, making me look like Prince Charles ears are sewn on the side of my head! Jamming out to what ever it was. When I look down and there is a snake!!!
Ok I don't do snakes or spiders but especially not snakes as they are just sneeky little bastards, they dont move as a normal thing should, and I'm sure they could easily slide up my pant leg!!
I can easily take a rat, mouse,frog, lizard, mole in my hands no problem, infact with my small zoo there have been numerous times I have saved something from the jaws of one of my cats. But I just don't touch or really want to be anywhere near snakes.
So back to my adventure with one today. So the mood is set, I'm jamming and mowing. I look down and there is a snake slithering around the bottom of a tree trunk. Now I hasten to point out that the tree in question is right next to my bedroom window! Guess who won't be opening the windows later this year when it cools down a bit!!
Well my inital thought was to run, but I couldn't as was sitting on my mower, but I didn't think about this till I had begun go get my ass up off the seat, the mower has an automatic cut off if you leave it running and in gear with blades going. Well it suddenly begins to stutter, when I realize that if it stops now I am going to be right next to the snake!!
So I sit my ass down which causes the mower to take off again with a really neck lash wipping force, which resulted in me being thrown forward over the steering wheel and nearly coming off the damn thing over the front of the mower!
Now all of this is happening in a matter of seconds and the soundtrack to it would have sounded like "snake!, fuck.. oh shit.. uggh, oh that hurt, fuck!!" Not a pretty sight for anyone who happened to be watching me at that moment, but I would imagine amusing!!
After that fright I had to return a number of times back to the area around the tree, all the time the hairs on my arms standing up, my eyes darting back and forth, peeled for Mr Slithery!!
I did see him 2 more times, my reaction not as before but still with mumbling swear words and feelings of goosebumps over my body of something, probably the snake, moving over my grave! I hate to say I did think of trying to run him over with the mower. But I try to kill as little as possible as I pass through life, I figure it's a good way to earn Karma points. So I let him be. But I now will not be going out in that area at night with no shoes on!!
As I said I have a fear of snakes and spiders. Just quickly let me tell you about my one run in with a spider in my bathroom a couple of years ago.
I live in the country, my house is a manufactured home, so the bottom of the house is off the ground. Having been under the house myself for stupid reasons over the 8 years I have lived here, I know that there are lots of big spider webs under there. I have never actually seen the spiders that make them till this night.
So I walk into the bathroom, Let me set the scene for you as soon as you walk in there is a seperate room to the left with the toilet in it and to the right the 2 sinks and 2 mirrors. I sit down on the loo, and no sooner had I started doing what I had gone in there to do! I happen to look up at the wall above the sinks. There is the biggest spider I have ever seen in my life. To be honest he could well have been a tarantula suffering from alopecia!!! he was that big, of course I'm assuming it was a he, I don't know how you would sex a spider and can't say that it is on my list of things to accomplish before I die!! But you get the idea, if I had the balls to hold him/her in my hand I am pretty sure he/she would have covered my palm!!
After seeing the spider which I hasten to add is over by the wall nearest to the door that I have to use to get out of! I was thankful that I was already on the toilet if you get my drift. So finished what I was doing, the whole time keeping an eye on my newly acquired 8 legged friend.
He/she didn't move but I am pretty sure that he/she was watching me, watching him/her. Then as I come out of the toilet and make to duck through the door, the little shit began to run along the wall above the doorway I was heading for. Then he/she stopped right above the door!! Ok this is my conversation to mysefl as best I can recall.
Ear splitting scream.."Fuck!! Oh shit, ok you little fucker just let me get through the door ok?" another girly cry as I ducked through the door. My heart beating a mile a minuet. I was away from it.
But hey wait up this is my bathroom en suite. I need to get it out of there because I can not sleep knowing that he/she is in there. Now remember a couple of paragraphs up I said that I try to kill as little as possible as I pass through life! Ok well let me add a clause to that rule. That shall only apply to snakes, spiders, bugs that live outside. I mean come on that is their habitat, it's me that's invading their space, so therefore I have no right to kill them.
But if your in my house! Well you damn well bet I'm killing your ass! So I went to get some bug spray. I didn't have anything for spiders specifically, but I did have Raid fly spray. Hey it's a bug, I'm sure it's lack of wings are not going to stop the killing effects of what ever is in the spray. So I headed back to the bathroom, the whole time mumbling to myself, I'm coming to get you, you little bastard.
I peek up under the door jamb to were I had last seen him/her!! Oh fuck it had moved!!! I then looked at the walls to the side of the doorjamb, nothing there. So I inched my way into the bathroom with my fly spray and my sneaker. Oh did I mention I took the sneaker in as backup? Well I did! So I'm entering like I should be a cop on a tv show, sweeping all walls and ceilings. But no spider to be seen!!
Major dilema. What to do. I can't assume that he/she has gone. But I also can not live in my house knowing that he/she may come back out when I am asleep and venture from the bathroom to my bedroom and my face!!!!!!!
Close the bathroom door Kate, I hear you say. Well in a normal house that would work, but in manufactured houses they leave a gap below the doors to help the circulation!! At least that was what the builder told me, maybe he just thought I was guillable and he had fucked up the doors and that was the better way to tell me!!
Regardless closing the door would not work. So I had to find it. I suddenly became Kate the spider hunter!! Ok, I didn't. I became Kate the lesbian trying to act tough brandishing a can of raid and a dirty sneeker and trying not to cry like a little baby.
Then I saw him/her out the corner of my eye to the left. It was sitting on the wall near my shower. I took aim and fired a stream of spray at him/her drowning the big 8 legged freak. But did he/she cough, splutter and fall to the ground gasping his/her last breath? Did it fuck, it started running up the wall and across the ceiling to come above me!!!
Well I continued to spray at it, begining to think that maybe there is a difference in spiders and flys after all, because this spray was sure not assisting the 8 legged freak to die, if anything it was like pcp for spiders because it seemed to make him/her stronger and more invincible!! Well after a second or two he/she began to falter and then turned around and went back to the wall and just sat there!
I approached it very slowly my weapons brandished ahead of me. I gave it another blast of the spray. I had sprayed so much in such a confined space that if it didn't kill the spider there was a good possiblity that it would kill me instead! But I sprayed again and this time it lurched up on to the ceiling, began to run and then dropped onto the ground right infront of me!!!!!!!!
FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!! Well I turned and ran through the bathroom door screaming like I have never screamed before in my life. I took a split second to glance over my shoulder and sure enough it looked stunned from it's fall but it was still moving towards me.
My instant reaction is to get off the ground a.s.a.p. So I jumped up on my bed, forgetting that the ceiling fan above my bed was on!! Well I missed the blade hitting me uspside the head by milimeters!!
But you know the choice between
1) decapatation by home appliance or
2) death by fright due to biggest spider in the world?
Well let me think about this!
Ok I'll take number 1 Alex for 1000!!
When I had recovered from my near death by ceiling fan I looked back to the bathroom floor. There he/she was, crawling towards me still, but this time with the stagger of a drunken spider, actually not sure how you could tell really with all those legs! Then it slowed and one of its' legs began to drag, but it kept coming at me. I'm sure I must have looked a sight through his/her little acrachnid eyes. Stood up on the bed screaming every swear word I knew and some I didn't!! Brandishing my near empty can of spider pcp and my sneaker, the blades of death still spinning behind my head!! But then he/she lost the use of another leg, then another, and then it just stopped, took one last glance at me, and died! I jumped off the bed and beat the shit out of it with the sneaker untill it was a mass of goo!! Knowing with each hit that I was loosing Karma points, but hey that's ok I'll help an old lady across the road tomorrow to make them back up!!
So there is my fear of snakes and spiders.
Ok I don't do snakes or spiders but especially not snakes as they are just sneeky little bastards, they dont move as a normal thing should, and I'm sure they could easily slide up my pant leg!!

My Fith Attempt At A Fan Video MY PERSONAL FAVORITE
Tipping The Velvet
BE SURE TO CRANK UP YOUR SPEAKERS, BELIEVE ME
Ok unfortunatly someone saw my video on YouTube and flagged it as inappropriate so they pulled it down. I will get another copy of it up here or on myspace site or YouTube again.
So check back!
This is the 1st video I made for Tipping the Velvet, and my 5th in all. I actually do not like this movie as much as Fingersmith.. But boy did I have fun making it.
I think it's pretty damn hot and gets the right parts tingling if you know what I mean! And I know you do!
But this is the video that I am most proud of so far, I really feel that I got my shit together with this one, the editing is pretty crisp all though I am finding a couple of spots that could have been a little cleaner. But over all I think it all comes together.
A fellow vider has told me that I should not be so literal. But then on the other hand I have received so many email and comments from people who say that they love that the visuals match the words to a tee!
So what to do, well I say I like doing the more literal ones, and to be honest think it is going to be hard to break me of the habit as have done it for my first 5 videos. And Im an old dog and can not be taught new tricks..!! wait that didn't come out right!
But I am willing to try to veer away from it as well, oh what the fuck no I'm not, I like my videos just the way they are. Nothing negative to you, you know that ??XX (insert name here if you know fellow vider who you are! If you dont then I guess you can also insert your name and we'll pretend we have a secret to share!!)
Different strokes for different folks!
Anway I love this video. I mean how can you not, you have the sultry voice of Tanita Tikaram, who is one hot chick. Then you add two very beautiful women in some pretty hot sex scenes, give the editing controls over to a horny single lesbian!
Voila this is what you get.

Introducing myself to you
Well as it says in my profile I'm 38 single and gay with a shit load of animals.
How many I hear you ask? well maybe you didn't ask but I know somewhere in the back of your mind the thought was getting ready to pop up to the front!! So I just saved you some brain power. Your welcome!
Ok now as a side note I do have a tendencies to ramble on, I do it in my emails, I know I can talk a hind leg of a donkey, sew it back on, then talk it off again!! See what I mean?
Where was I?
Oh yeah my animals. I have, and I do preface this with a point that I am in fact not mad, have never been diagnosed as being insane or any mild form of madness, of course that may be proven wrong by one of you as you read my blog, but I am not officially insane. I like to think of myself as being a caring human being, who is offering a loving home, shelter, food and security for a population on this planet that is too sadly abandoned or abused at the hands of man.
All of them are animals that people have brought to me either injured and found on the side of the road, or removed from abusive situations.
But at last count as of today's date. I have
18 cats!!
Remember I told you that I was not in fact insane, all though I know a lot of people assume that if you have that many you must be. Well I'm here to prove I 'm not, or at least not yet!
5 dogs!!
All sizes 4 males and 1 female who is the smallest of the pack but she has a don't fuck with me! Attitude, she was either a Pitbull, Rottweiler, Doberman in her past life. She will get up in the other dogs faces like no ones business. I'm waiting for the day that I have to take her to the vets with her face hanging off!
2 flying squirrels.
Ok they were not exactly rescued, well now I think about it I guess they were as my cats caught them and I was able to rescue them and nurse them back to health which on the first one Chirppy took about 3 months, so of course in that time he got fat and happy and pretty sure unable to survive in the wild as reliant on me to feed him. Then I got his little buddy Old Timer from my neighbors who's friends cat had also caught and injured one. They are both male, and as are a number of my animals, gay! More on that one in a later post!!!
1 Aquatic turtle
Again rescued from being crushed by a big foot!! 5 years ago. Then he was the size of my pinky fingernail, now he sits and covers my hand pretty much. His name is Nessie
And a 55 gallon tank with about 16 fish in it. Never thought that I would like fish or the turtle as more of a 4 legged furry kind of person, but Nessy the turtle is a trip and the fish are cool as well.
I like to think that they all have personalities, going about their daily lives with out a care in the world because they know they are safe with me!! That was touching>>>>!!!!!
Ok so that's my animals, my kids I guess you would say.
As stated in the intro I live in Florida in the small but rapidly growing city of Zephyrhills. Yes home to the famous Zephyrhills Water. Only thing is that the water that they are passing off as being from Zephyrhills is actually from a small redneck little place on the side of highway 39 about 5 miles outside of Zephyrhills, called Crystal Springs. That is were the natural water comes from, they just bottle it in Zephryhills. But I guess someone else already had the name Crystal Springs. Well that was a nice trip down history lane!!
When I first came her in 1998 we had a Kmart, small crappy Walmart and Publix and Kash n Karry and Walgreens. A couple of small trailer parks and the occasional subdivision that was golf oriented, I mean come on its Florida for gods sake... ok I am going to digress again....
...Told you that I'd do it. When I say god I do not actually mean "God" because I do not believe in "God". I would say that I am an atheist who if burned at a post and made to pick a religion would choose Buddhism. I do believe in reincarnation, I honestly believe that how ever shitty some of my animals existences were before they came to me, with the love and compassion I have shown them and the trust they have gained in me, it will result when they do come back in their next form, if it is to be a human one, with them being I hope, a kind, good hearted loving, non judgmental, person. Because we all can agree that we need more of them in this world.
But anyway after that little digression. Do I still have you with me? Or did I just lose the Religious Right memembers!! Damn fucking shame if I did. I will leave that subject to a whole new post!
This is about introducing me to you and I don't want to scare you off with a rant from my soap box quite yet!! Actually thanks for sticking with me this far.
Ok back to my post. Zephyrhills is now the proud owner of a Super Walmart, A Lowes, Home Depot. At least 20 new subdivisions and condos setting up. It really is scary. Hopefully no one in the future will make me leave my land because they want to put in a parking lot for the mall they are building down the road. And I do own it. It's my one spot on this planet that I know I can be me and no one but myself has any right to judge me!!... Yeah you go sister friend!!
But now because of the idiots that we have running this country (again another post, actually with my feelings about the current administration it is going to be at least a couple of posts!) but because of their laws they have ruled ok, a big corporation can come to Zephyrhills and say we want to build the biggest mall in Florida right here, and because of all the taxes Im going to be paying you, you can get rid of the little men and women who have their whole lives on that little acre or more of land they have scrimped and saved for over the years, well you can screw them because you can make much more off me. Bastards!!!
Anyway I do apologize I got up on the soap box again, maybe I need to leave it out of the room so I am not likely to just step up on it again, or at least not untill it is the right post.
Well that is where I live and a little introduction to me. Now I think Im going to close this post off and go get some dinner going as Big Brothers tonight. Go Janell!!
How many I hear you ask? well maybe you didn't ask but I know somewhere in the back of your mind the thought was getting ready to pop up to the front!! So I just saved you some brain power. Your welcome!

But anyway after that little digression. Do I still have you with me? Or did I just lose the Religious Right memembers!! Damn fucking shame if I did. I will leave that subject to a whole new post!
This is about introducing me to you and I don't want to scare you off with a rant from my soap box quite yet!! Actually thanks for sticking with me this far.
Ok back to my post. Zephyrhills is now the proud owner of a Super Walmart, A Lowes, Home Depot. At least 20 new subdivisions and condos setting up. It really is scary. Hopefully no one in the future will make me leave my land because they want to put in a parking lot for the mall they are building down the road. And I do own it. It's my one spot on this planet that I know I can be me and no one but myself has any right to judge me!!... Yeah you go sister friend!!
But now because of the idiots that we have running this country (again another post, actually with my feelings about the current administration it is going to be at least a couple of posts!) but because of their laws they have ruled ok, a big corporation can come to Zephyrhills and say we want to build the biggest mall in Florida right here, and because of all the taxes Im going to be paying you, you can get rid of the little men and women who have their whole lives on that little acre or more of land they have scrimped and saved for over the years, well you can screw them because you can make much more off me. Bastards!!!
Anyway I do apologize I got up on the soap box again, maybe I need to leave it out of the room so I am not likely to just step up on it again, or at least not untill it is the right post.
Well that is where I live and a little introduction to me. Now I think Im going to close this post off and go get some dinner going as Big Brothers tonight. Go Janell!!
