Trust
Trust is a beautiful word for some.
For others- they shudder at the mere mention.
I am not going to lie- I have been through a few situations where I have been decieved, lied to, or deluded. Take your pick. At the end of the day- Ya, it happened.
There is however this residule feeling of fear I now have. I never knew it was there until recently. I date. I doubt and perhaps I put a wall up. As I write this I remember a post I did about vulnerability...
SIgh....
Going back to read and remind... :)

Rescue the Ice Cream Please
I think I literally had a moment of realization today.
Walmart does not like me in the least.
Power went out- People went bat shit crazy and I stood there taking photos with my phone (yes, the flash was on).
I was asked to leave.
I then asked the lady if it meant that everything was 87.5% off because they were trying to recoop costs to pay the power bill.
She repeatedly asked me to leave.
I then asked if it would be okay to go to the freezer section and take a tub of icecream because I would hate to see it go to waste.
I then got escorted out.
Ok. Ok.
Maybe I was pushing it?

Indeed- This is True
You know the moment when something bad is happening
Stop and think...
What the hell can you do to change things?
Nothing...
Ok then.
Calm the hell down and eat a cupcake.

Lifes Little Lessons #349086509869082423564023
Men are not mind readers. Neither are women.We are constantly in a state of uncertainty and confusion when it comes to the lack of communication between the two sexes.
There is a simple solution for this problem.
Just say what's on your mind.
AH. Easy solution right? WRONG!
Why then?
Because we fear hurt. Rejection. Pain. You pick a god aweful feeling and insert here_________________.
Im trying this whole brutal honesty thing. It's so incredibly tough. I have so much to say sometimes but that vulnerable scary feeling creeps up and sometimes- I hold back. Perhaps the lack of trust is the right word? Fear of being affronted (god only knows that is a horrible feeling) maybe? Or it's human nature to be.... filtered.
Regardless- Im making the conscious effort. Without the Deadly words below...

ZOOLANDER style
I woke up a uniturner. I can only look right. Left shoulder check impossible. On the way into the Park I was given the finger twice. I now do the whole turn-the-body glance. It's looks absolutely ridiculous. My lovely Starbucks barista even asked me...'Rebecca, sore neck?'.
I'm unsure what I did. Maybe it was how I slept?
Christ, I need this worked out.

Drifting
People will drift in and out of you life- for reasons unknown.
Regardless how they arrive or leave- there is always a lesson to be learned.
No matter how big or small.
And for that- I thank you.

How to:
Dating Advice from my Best Friend:
So, I recently got this from my best friend- he is trying to help me out in the dating world and I had such a great laugh I thought I'd share:
How to "Land a Guy"
- Hang out in bookstores under the classic literature section and grab the legs of men that walk by (intellectual!)
- Go to a coffee shop and "accidentally" spill your coffee on men until you find the first one who doesn't get annoyed (kindhearted!)
- Conspicuously feed fun size Snickers bars to squirrels in the park. If a hot guy tells you this is not a great idea, bingo. (loves animals!)
- Trip in a cute but noticeable way and see who rushes to help you up. (a gentleman!) If no one rushes to help you up, roll around for a while until you find a taker.
- Scan any hospital waiting room for hotties. If he's waiting for a loved one (cares about his family!) or has a medical problem himself (vulnerable!) now is the time to seductively flip through some brochures until you catch his eye. Make sure the brochures or pamphlets are not "How to deal with V.D."
- If you're driving in your car and happen to spot some man candy walking along, slowly, but steadily drive your car up onto the sidewalk and initiate a chase. If he can run quickly for an extended period of time (works out!) he may be the one.
- Never leave the house without a loaded squirt gun. That way you can super soak any guys who look good and the ones who laugh and don't get upset or call the police have some potential. (sense of humor!)
- Hang out in the imported food section of the grocery store to seek out men of the world. If you see a guy buying anything that costs $7 or more (buys fancy food!), return to the patented leg-grabbing technique.
- Look for any man wearing a watch. Ask him what time it is. When he answers, say "What?" as if you didn't hear. Just keep saying "what?" each time he repeats the time. The man who doesn't just walk away is a potential dreamboat. (good communicator!)
- Go into any NICE restaurant in search of men. If you find one, challenge him with "I bet you can't eat the entire contents of that bread basket in under 30 seconds." The man who takes on this challenge is a real gem. (ambitious!)
- If you see any man reading a newspaper on his iPad (stays current!), once again, grab his legs. It just works.

Sì a la Spezia Nella Vita
You know how there some crazy superstitions out there. You know, some include:
*If your right hand itches, you'll make money
*See a four leaf clover you will run into some luck.
*If a spider is found in your pants you will hop around and scream
*If you find a large brownish rabbit in your back yard your cousin will marry a Finnish diplomat. And have babies that resemble this particular rabbit (Ok, so not funny but I thought I would give it a try)
etc.
etc.
etc
Well, I just dropped an ENTIRE bag of chile peppers on the floor...
Does this mean life is about to get hot 'n spicey?!
I'm not one to look for meaning into everything I come across. I'm just super pissed I dropped them and trying to make light of the situation...
So lets go with a Yes, Spicey, life is about to get...

In a Instant
Change.
In one word.
A simple glance.
An instant thought.
The memory you forgot but now remember.
A color.
A Dream.
The accidental shift in time.
Change- Its inevitable....

Morning Meds
I've come to the conclusion that I cannot do without two things in the morning:
#1. A message from my best friend
#2. Starbucks
Im sure I'd get by but when I am resembling something that of a deranged sea monster and both or one of those things are going to motivate me to revert back to my gleeful self well.....
It's worth the $2.68 and texting the texting fee:)
