Don't worry 'bout me, I got a wild card up my sleeve.

"Don't worry 'bout me, I got a wild card up my sleeve."

I'm thinking about this as another tattoo. Not the quote, just the wild card... I would like the ace of hearts, though. :)

The actual line is, '"when the morning comes and it's time for me to leave; don't worry 'bout me, I've got a wild card up my sleeve." It's from the song "Easy From Now On," originally recorded by Emmylou Harris but rerecorded by my favorite artist, Miranda Lambert.

This phrase is not about one-night stands to me. It's a reminder that only I know what I am truly capable of and what my intentions are. I choose my own destiny (and I already have that phrase tattooed on me, so may as well take it further). No matter what the situation, I'm in control of my own actions. No matter who may hurt me or whatever setbacks I may encounter, I've got the final say. I've got the wild card that may surprise people if they try to trick me or something.

If I got it, it would be in black and white on the inside of my left bicep. That way I can hide it...both from potential employers and from anyone who may want to steal my ace in the hole. That was a metaphor.

Let me know what y'all think? Please? :)

Proof I have always loved cats!

This is an article from the Cinci Enquirer. I am quoted at age 8, saying I am a "cat nut."

Winning.

Singer Demi Lovato took to Twitter to protest the latest Disney flub, a "joke" about eating disorders on the show "Shake it Up."

In the show, one character says to another:"I could just eat you up... well, if I ate."

Lovato, a former star on the Disney show "Sonny With a Chance," left a tour with the Jonas Brothers in the fall of 2011 to seek treatment for an eating disorder.

Obviously, this issue hits home for Lovato. But I hope it strikes a chord with other people, too. Eating disorders affect all of us, from stars to your everyday folks. It upsets me when I hear how far people go to look thin. Somewhere, I know society is to blame.

Demi, you are beautiful. Thanks for speaking up.

AP's top 10 albums of the year

The Associated Press listed Adele's 21 as its top album of 2011. No surprise, really, given how much influence the Brit has had on the music scene with her sophomore album. And it's a good album -- poignant, heartbreaking, and beautiful. Adele has a beautiful voice and is a talented songwriter.

But I was also proud to see the Pistol Annies on that list! Maybe it's because they were dubbed "the anti-Taylor Swift." Or maybe it's because I'm such a diehard Miranda Lambert fan! Either way, I share the author's views when she hopes the project becomes more regular.
