Mixed Nuts and Eggs

Really, when you think about it, anything in life is like mixed nuts and eggs...

Love, work, relationships, family, and just life in general...it can all be classified into one of the two categories. You've got mixed nuts - an assortment of hard but fulfilling pieces of life...with some rotten bits thrown in carelessly here and there to slow you down a bit when you take the rest for granted. Then you've got eggs - a smart yet bland outside with a rich but not so healthy middle. You can choose to separate white from the yellow, but it's still an egg. Some people make it hard, some like it over easy. Some scramble it up and choose to overlook the two smaller parts. Cook it up anyway you like it...it's all in what you prefer.

Actually, the title of this site can be directly applied to the search for love between men and women...it's pretty self explanatory. Think about it. You've got a world full of mixed up nuts looking for love in scrambled eggs....no wait, maybe that's a fertility issue.

Regardless, this site is dedicated to random thoughts about life, bits of advice I've learned, laughing at the little things, and wondering endlessly about the big things. It isn't about what's right, who's right, if it's right, or being right. It's about stopping long enough to think about things and making the most of the short time we're here.

If you're looking for politically correct, appropriate topics with perfect grammar and punctuation, please assign yourself to one of the two topics above and come back at a better time. For the rest of you, browse around, laugh, wonder, think, imagine, and make yourself a better person every day...because there is someone out there who has to put up with you.

December 26, 2008 (Friday): AAAAAAAAAAAH. That's about all I have to say today! I did post some new stuff, though... from being scammed out of $250 to wondering if my house and my bank account will ever return to normal.

December 25, 2008 (Thursday): Tried to turn this into a blog style site, but it just didn't have the same effect. I decided I needed this site as an outlet...not as a blog, so I just reloaded the site and decided to continue where I left off. I'm going to try to be on here more often...I've said that before, but this time I'm really going to try!

August 8, 2007 (Wednesday): Needed to vent...added some writings here and there.

July 26, 2007 (Thursday): So, once again, I've been writing on paper and forgetting that I created this page for the purpose of not having 4500 post its on my desk. But I realized something yesterday. I love to write. Sounds simple enough...but I think I've forgotten how much I really do love to write. Time to get back to the basics. Time to write what I feel....not what looks good on paper. Time to break a few rules! I'm excited to be back!

April 24, 2006 (Monday): Long time no type. So I remembered that I have this page to let off some steam...which I haven't been doing. I've been bottling things up and keeping them to myself. I think I'll add a little bit to every page right about now. :-)

February 5, 2006 (Sunday): I added a blurb on the "love" page. I also decided that I will decorate my website in prints by my all time favorite artist, Alfred "Alex" Gockel. He's amazing. I'm not one of those people that's usually into art, but there's just something about his work that absolutely intrigues me beyond words. His colors are brilliant, bold, soft, and edgy all at once. Since I can't afford to fill my house in his art, I can at least fill my site with his creations!

February 3, 2006 (Friday): Ok, I'm finally adding some thoughts to some of my pages. I think to start things off, I'm going to take some thoughts I've had on "stickies" on my computer and put them here. I have no idea when they were written, or if they even make sense, but it's a good place to start. You'll see that some of my thoughts are deep (and no I don't use any form of drugs whatsoever) and some are just plain light and silly. That's me. There are days when I feel like I'm in my own little world, and others when I feel like I'm right in the middle of life's joke. Very rarely will you see me depressed or down - I don't have time for that. Sometimes, I'll write words that flow faster than my brain, go back and re-read them, and think I sound like an imprisoned psycho...but it's fun to see where your brain goes when you let it loose!

February 2, 2006 (Thursday): So, I'm looking at my logo and laughing at it. I love it. It makes no sense, it's a cluster of fonts, it's goofy, and it's just perfect. To me it symbolizes men and women...men being the mixed nuts of course. They're on the outside trying to figure things out and the women are an opposite color scheme and a whole different font. Easy to read by everyone looking at it, but when you're right in the middle of the design, I bet it makes no sense. Pretty much like love, huh?
