Ricky Martin is Gay – So What!

Posted by: The Blonde Diaries  /  Category: Entertainment

Yesterday one of the headlines on Yahoo News was about Ricky Martin announcing on his website that he is gay.  My response is so what!  I am over the whole coming out with who is gay and who is not.  What does it really matter?  At the end of the day, all that matters is how good of a person you are and that you lived a good life.  I could personally care less what your sexual orientation is.

I have always thought that we are all equal and that it doesn’t matter who is who and what we prefer.  At the end of the day social issues need advancement and fiscal responsibility is a needed requirement no matter what your personal preferences.  I actually look forward to the day when we don’t need to identify ourselves with our orientation. How awesome would it be to refer to our husband/wife as our “partner” with no need explanation with their sex. I mean Mike and I don’t identify ourselves with our name and sexual orientation and I hope the same happens for gays and lesbians in our near future. I look forward to the day when celebrities and non celebrities don’t have to announce their preference. As long as we are all financially sound/solvent, who really cares about these other things.

Manic Monday Meme – September 21, 2009

Posted by: The Blonde Diaries  /  Category: meme
This entry is part 14 of 15 in the series Manic Monday Meme

I am ready to start this week off with my Manic Monday Meme post.  I was looking forward to this week flying by as it is suppose to be Mike’s last week working in Beaumont but we just learned this morning that he’ll be going back next week to.  So that bursted my bubble just a tad.  Oh well.  We will deal and move on.  On to some fun for the day.

Would you be willing to have horrible nightmares every night for a year if you would be rewarded with extraordinary wealth? Absolutely not!  I’m a chicken and the thought of recurring nightmares just is not appealing.

What was the most recent movie that made you cry? PS I Love You.  I made it to the last 30 minutes before I gave in.

Would you rather be stranded on an island alone or with someone you hate? Alone.  They both seem about the same to me though.

Manic Monday – May 11, 2009

This entry is part 9 of 15 in the series Manic Monday Meme

Seems like it’s another week of better late than never.  The whole eye thing threw me off as I was up and ready to post this morning but with it bugging me and my appointment not being till 1pm I thought the easiest way to deal with it would be to go back to bed until time to go to the doctor.  Then it was cleaning, doing laundry, cooking, and then battling the eye drops.  So here I am finally ready to do my Manic Monday Meme post.

How old were you when you learned to tie your shoes?  I don’t remember.  I know it was before I went to Kindergarten as I wanted shoes with laces to wear.

Have you ever snooped in somebody else’s medicine cabinet? No.  I have never known anyone to have a medicine cabinet that they actually use to keep medicine in.  I know in my family we use the kitchen cabinet to keep our medicines in to remember to take when we eat.

Who do you think you are? This is an odd question when you first read it.  I actually had to peak at what others said to figure out what I wanted to say.  I tend to cheat like that ;)

I guess I could say I’m a million different things but when it comes down to it I’m just a 27 year old girl who enjoys spending time with her family and friends.

New Saturday meme: Saturday 9 – May 2, 2009

Posted by: The Blonde Diaries  /  Category: meme
This entry is part 1 of 2 in the series Saturday 9

My other Saturday meme, The Saturday Special, ended in mid-April. So today, I went out and searched around and found a new meme that is similar and should be a lot of fun.

Welcome to Saturday: 9 . What we’ve committed to our readers is that we will post 9 questions every Saturday. Sometimes the post will have a theme, and at other times the questions will be totally unrelated. Those weeks we do “random questions,” so-to-speak. We encourage you to visit other participants posts and leave a comment. Because we don’t have any rules, it is your choice. We hate rules. We love memes, however, and here is today’s meme!

1. Do you feel that you have “a score to settle” with anyone? No I’m happy with how things are going and don’t tend to hold on to grudges that badly.

2. Do you own anything that you think is unbreakable? No I manage to kill everything I try to grow so I would assume that anything unbreakable I could probably break.

3. Tell us about a crazy thing you did in high school. I did camp out outside for NSYNC concert tickets. That didn’t go down too well when my mom caught me. The grounding was worth it though because I was in the first 10 rows.

4. Name the one talent of yours that you think is the best. I have a lot of things I’m ok at. Nothing I’m fabulous at. :(

5. Who wins American Idol? (if you don’t watch, tell us about a reality show that you do follow.) Isn’t Adam the one doing really well? I’ll go with him.

6. What is your favorite movie in black & white? It’s hard to tell what was B&W because they have made everything color now.

7. What is one thing advertised too much on TV? Enzyte Male enhancement pills

8. What is your current favorite TV drama? I like that new show. I think it’s Castle

9. What is your current favorite TV comedy? How I Met Your Mother
