Oh boy let me tell you, it's a long one yeah...

I have to say hooray to my Dallas Stars for winning last night against Detroit! Hell yeah baby! GO STARS! We won in overtime. I still haven't watched the game. I know for some people, knowing the outcome ruins watching the game. For me? Obviously not. I love watching, even if I know who will win. I haven't seen all the awesome plays, hard hits, would've been awesome plays, shitty plays, oh my gosh I can't believe they missed that, what the fuck was that and everything else that makes up the game. It's not all about the winning and losing, I like the whole experience. Especially when we win. :D

Thank you all for the well wishes, good juju, prayers and etc for my friend SS. I appreciate it!

DON'T FORGET! Wednesday Weirdness is up this afternoon so you have time to nab and answer the questions for posting on Wednesday! Come play with us.

Did you notice the Flickr badge I put over on my side content panel? I made most of the content private for friends only. There is plenty to see in public content though. Well, not really so much. I'm hoping to get out tomorrow to get some badass scenery and nature shots though so I can add more to my Flickr than just me. I do have a picture project going on. I call it Project 365. I put up 1 picture, every single day, for an entire year. I'm now 13 days in to it and I'm doing fine. I even had an awesome blogger e-mail me a list with ideas for when I start to run dry. Project 365 is viewable to anyone so check that out and feel free to leave comments accordingly. If you try and add me on there as a contact, make sure I know who you are or message me and tell me who you are. Also thank you to the awesome friend who gifted me with the Pro account. ;)

I've got an interview to post. I know you've all seen these around on various blogs. I'm cheating and had a few people do them for me. It's always interesting to see the kinds of questions people will come up with for you to answer.

Want to be part of it? Follow these instructions:
1. Leave me a comment saying, “Interview me.”
2. I will respond by emailing you five questions. I get to pick the questions.
3. You will update your blog with the answers to the questions.
4. You will include this explanation and an offer to interview someone else in the same post.
5. When others comment asking to be interviewed, you will ask them five questions.


I won't cry if no one wants me to interview them by the way, lol. I'll have fun with it of anyone does but I won't shed a tear or feel worse for it if no one does. Onward. Questions courtesy of the handsome and amusing Hubman.

1) It's no secret that you are bi-sexual. You have to chose- for the rest of your life, men or women? Which is it and why?

Ah! I've been asked this question before and honestly, I hate it every single time but not as much as I used to. I'm very confident in my relationship with Boyfriend. We've gotten to the point where he likes to bring up the "M" word (marriage) and I don't feel the need to run fleeing in the other direction. So, to give up men would be to give him up and that, I can't imagine doing. So I pick men and for that reason, I'd lose him if I chose women and he's the best thing that's ever happened in my life. If we however, end up not working out, I might have a different answer entirely, lol.


2) You refer to yourself as dark and moody. Tell us something bright and sunshiney about you!

This was actually the hardest question on here sadly, lol. I found something though! I hate to see other people sad or down. I have a great sense of humor and I'm a silly, goofy girl. I'm always trying to cheer up people when they're down. Even if I end up making myself look like a total dork or even a fool, I don't care. I hate to see most people down in the dumps so I try my best to make them laugh or cheer them up. :) Oh and does the fact that I collect plush penguins count as bright and sunshiney count? How about that I sleep with one of the little guys cuddled in bed with me because it's comforting? Or that I collect other things with penguins on them such as coffee mugs, glasses and etc? Or the fact that I get so ridiculously giddy when I watch the movie Happy Feet? Oh and I'm totally like a little kid when it comes to Disney movies, Pixar films and some other animated cute movies, I just love love love them. I think that all counts as bright and sunshiney. ;)


3) You're a big Dallas Stars fan. What was your reaction to the comments Sean Avery made and how the team dealt with him as a result?

I think the comments weren't that bad. Worse has been said. It wasn't that the comment about his ex-girlfriends dating other NHL players and referring to them as his "sloppy seconds" was that horrendous. Like I said, worse has been said. Calling the media to him just for that was pathetic. It was just the icing on the cake and the thing that finally did him in. You can read about how he's not a good teammate, defies coaches, wants to sit out on drills, sits in the hallways between periods listening to music over being in the locker room and just in general being a pure and total shithead and bad teammate. Then there's his on ice antics where he's a shithead again. Then there's the fact that he likes to bend and break every rule and expect to be the exception to the rule because he's got talent and skills. Then there's his attitude about how he doesn't know if he can play well or not from day to day, it just depends on how he feels. He's a bad sport and acts like the world should revolve around him. Now ironically, I like the guy as a player for the most part. I think if he got his head on straight and could stop being such a fucking douchebag drama king, he'd be a valuable asset. I think they handled him and the situation the best way they could. I hope whatever they have him doing treatment wise will help but I doubt there's much to that, lol. Which sucks because he really is a talented player. It sucks to see such talent go to waste because someone won't focus and do what's necessary to play as a team. Though they should have known with his record what they were getting in to when they signed him.


4) Why did you start your blog and who was the first blogger that you regularly read?

I've been writing online on public journals and blogs since I was about 14. Livejournal, blogdrive and a couple other places before those before I landed here. I always kept so much inside and it started to build up too much and I needed a release. So I started blogging as a way to let off steam, vent my frustrations, confess to things, talk out issues, voice my opinions and on and on. It was somewhere that I could deal with things in my own way.

The first journal I ever read was a friend's Xanga. We're no longer friends anymore. Most of the journals and blogs I read once I began belonged to real life friends and friends of real life friends and on so on and so forth.

I decided to get rid of blogdrive when I was 18 because I hated the setup and hated how cliquey everyone was around there. I started up on blogspot and though I've changed my URL several times, I've had the same name. So there were four blogspot bloggers that I read regularly and I couldn't tell you which of them was first. So, there is Steve and Zombie, neither of whom blog on those blogs anymore. I read Steve from almost the beginning and though I didn't believe a great deal of that blog to be true, it was definitely entertaining.
Then there is That Dude From Philly. And last but not least, Oh My Gads, A Lunar Snow Storm. The blog doesn't exist anymore since he has long since packed up and moved on. He was hilarious, semi twisted and made me think though.


5) You've written that your mother is an excellent chef. If she were to prepare your favorite dish, what would that be and why?

Hmm..I have a lot of favorite dishes honestly, lol. One of my favorite dishes is chicken parmigiana so I'm going with that. My mom makes great Italian dishes (given there's some Italian flowing through those veins, lol) and it would be delicious. I don't get to eat it hardly either. I don't even remember the last time I had it honestly. Damn, now I want to have a plate of it. My mouth is watering just thinking about it. Mmmm.

TMI Tuesday
Just because I haven't played in forever.
Though I know all of these have been asked before but oh well.

1. On a scale of 1-10, how satisfied are you with your sex life?

I suppose a 1. My boyfriend is 2,000 miles away and I have seen him twice in the almost 6 months we've been that far apart. I don't think any further explanation is needed there. :)


2. If someone shoves you up against a wall while kissing you, your reaction is?

If I don't know them, they're getting violence bestowed upon them in the form of my fists of punching fury.

If it's my boyfriend or some hot chick I'm interested in, I assume that I would act in a very positive manner that would in turn no doubt have me reciprocating their actions.


3. What is the most romantic thing anyone has ever done or said to you?

I'm not the romantic type. Among several, one of my favorite dates with my boyfriend takes place in a noisy sports bars, enjoying some unhealthy food, alcohol and a damn good sports game while yelling and cheering together as we watch our team play. Not so romantic. I'm more about having fun, laughing and having a good time together. I don't like a lot of things that girls typically swoon over. Romance makes me feel awkward. Which is half my problem with Valentines Day in all honesty aside from just thinking it's a completely ridiculous and commercial holiday. (Sorry baby, I know you love V-Day.) I was a tomboy as a kid and though I do have some girlish things about me, I'm still a tomboy inside here.


4. Where is the most unusual place you have ever had sex?

On a pirate ship in the middle of the Mojave Desert. This was in a dream I had a couple months ago. Though it's pretty straight forward in the phrasing, there's nothing that says I can't use dream sex as my answer. ;)


5. How do you liked to be kissed?

Softly. Gently. Little whispers of lips trailing down neck and shoulders, barely existing, causing goosebumps to rise and break out across any area touched. Roughly, with pressure and intense passion in a way that makes it seem as my partner is trying to devour me through our mouths. Hard. With lips and tongue. With lips alone. Gentle biting and sucking along the lower lip before roughly kissing with the mouth as if life depended on the intensity of that kiss. Sweet kisses planted along the chin, the lips, the forehead and temples. Soft but firm little reminders of the love and intimacy we share. In case you can't tell, I love kissing. Very much. :D

Happy Tuesday y'all!

I enjoyed your interview and I love Italian food too...I wouldn't mind if you try your best to nail me down...if you can. LOL As for TMI, I love kissing too. Sorry about not getting any on the male side. ;)

Baby said...

Enjoyed reading your answers to both the interview and TMI - I can definitely understand the score of 1 for the sex life - LOL - long distance dating can be quite a downer... Have a great day!

Shad said...

mmmm Italian! I don't think there is any Italian in my blood line but I'm so addicted to it.

If you would be so kind, I'd be interested to see what questions you might come up with for an interview.

Sometimes I prefer kissing to sex. Not all the time, mind you!

I added you to my flickr, I think I'm actually going to use it again too. I used to have a pro membership but then I went loopy and ditched it, I'm coming out of loopiness these days though, slow but sure :-)

Great blog. Found it through Kate

That was an interesting twist on the Avery meltdown. When he was with the Wings I liked his on ice toughness but his tude always got in the way of ever staying with the Wings. His future is in his own hands at this point in time. The Stars took it to my Wings last night. Ozzy kept them in the game otherwise it would have been double digits for the Stars.

Ashly Star said...

Salt and Pepper:
Thanks!


Jennybean:
Yeah. I have done them before a long time ago but they're always fun to do. :)
Thanks!


asweetnectar :
Thanks!

Another Suburban Mom:
It will be done! Or has been done, lol. I hope you liked the questions!
Eeeeeeeeeeeep! Ahem. Cool.
Thank you!
Oh he is lucky!


Nolens Volens:
Thank you! Italian food rocks. If that's a challenge, I will see what I can come up with you in the ways of questionable questions.


Baby:
Thank you! Oh I know you understand. And for that, I'm sorry, lol.


Shad:
It's delicious. ;)
Okay. Give me some time to troll over your blog and I'll see what I can come up with!


Jormengrund:
Done, done and done. ;)
Thank you!


thefirstdayofautumn:
Thank you! I'm glad someone else shares my joy for kissing.


flyinfox-satx:
Thank you!


Sexie Sadie~:
Thank you! ;)


phairhead :
Sometimes, I do too. =)


jGrrl:
Yay! Sowly but surely is better than nothing at all my love.


Rainman:
Hi! Thank you. Your default picture makes my heart ache a little bit though, lol.
His future is in his own hands now. I hate to think he's just going to end up a total waste of talent. Oh well though.
That was a damn good game! I agree, if Osgood hadn't played so well, it would have been more of a one sided game than it was.

Baby said...

The Interview was fun - and thank you for letting me participate! My answers to your questions are posted ... :)

rage said...

When you started talking about all of the Italian food my mouth started watering...((drools))....
