Thanks to Angelabc for donating to Toys For Tots, taking and posting a photograph and essentially donating an extra toy through my blog!
So far Donny, Lamerchick, agauthier79, toshiba1, Capri and Angelabc have all participated in my personal "toy drive"!
Thank you to Agauthier79 for making frequent monetary donations this season!
Thank you to toshiba1 for choosing a child from the Holiday Tree in her local Walmart and gifting him $30 in toys!
Thank you to Capri and her husband for donating their Christmas Tree as well as all their decorations! She has also made many monetary donations over the years.
Capri and her husband are an inspiration and have reminded me of a quote taken from the crowd at the 1968 Democratic Convention! "The whole world is watching!" Although it's taken severely out of context here, I find the words themselves appropriate. Your actions set an example for the rest of us!
To everyone, thank you for donating one dollar when all you could afford to give was fifty cents!
I have faith that more of you have donated, so post some photos! If you don't have a photo, just leave a comment with your donation and to whom it was donated!
Thanks again Angelabc for the first photo and the third toy!

Every single one of you has or has not cheated. Every single one of you has or has not experienced disloyalty. Every single one of you has or has not been suspicious. Every single one of you has or has not cried yourself to sleep. Every single one of you has or has not wanted more than anything to know the truth. Nothing but the bitter truth.
Recently I have been taking my time with Joyce Carol Oates' novel "American Appetites"(1989). Although thoroughly obsessed and well into the novel, I am still finding myself tossing and turning in an unwilling contemplation of one line. One single line. One seemingly simple line has left me constantly wondering, thinking, destructing, reconstructing and trying to understand one thought. Through the trials, trivial or severe, that I have experienced in all my relationships I have never so shortly been able to express this single feeling, reaction. In "American Appetites" Joyce Carol Oates so freely, so smoothly puts a single thought (although well reversed) into one line.
"To enter another in love is to violate the other in pain and bring about at once, or in time, irrevocable loss."
If I had spent my entire (although short) time as a journalism major attempting one line representing disloyalty, I could have never come up with something so eloquent, so beautiful, so understanding, so true or so romantic. Never could I have ever put such a troubled emotion into this simple a line.
I will absolutely suggest any Joyce Carol Oates essay, poem, short story to any person, but as the first novel read, I have to say I could not, without even finishing, suggest a better novel. I am currently only 150 pages into this story. On average, I read two to five books a week. It has been a very long time since a novel has expended so much time. Oates has absolutely, without a doubt, collected every ounce of my attention, thought and contemplation. The only two pieces I can even compare to the poetry this book extends are "Labyrinths" by Borges and "Jitterbug Perfume" by Robbins. This will remain a staple in my library.
I suggest you find a copy of "American Appetites" by Joyce Carol Oates and experience this for yourself.

In Store - PacSun has a ton of Men's tees and hoodies on sale from $9.99 to $29.99! My boyfriend just spent $50.00 there and got 2 tees and 2 hoodies! The fit, material and colors of the tees are amazing! Perfect for casual girls or guys wear. Perfect for gifting. He also got $25 in PacLoot which he can use to get $25 off a purchase of $50 or more! We are going back to get 5 tshirts for $25! I don't like this store for much more than basic tees and hoodies (specifically men's) but they also had a ton of denim, sleepwear, tees and accessories on sale in the women's section.
I'm sure there are a ton of great sales out there. I'll let you know when I see them!
**EDIT!! - On Target.com right now, I have my cart up to $330 including tax and shipping with... 32 items!!! And about 25 of them are dresses! Yeah.. so that'd probably be a good place to start if you have any ladies to gift! Also I just got back from the store closest to me and I got 3 super nice jackets for $40! They had about 3 racks of 75% OFF, 5 racks of 50% OFF and 3 or 4 racks at 30% OFF! They also had holiday dresses for $19.99 and a ton of new sweaters and tops. Really gorgeous stuff! Gotta love Target!

A couple weeks ago I posted "Giving Back Christmas" reminding everyone to give back this season! I had mentioned then that for every gift donated, up to 50, I would match it by one!
My very good friend Donny has set an example for us all by selling his PSP and donating the money to Toys For Tots. Donny, 20, has been a good friend of mine for a very long time now! He is definitely a compassionate soul and I thank him for his donation.
Donny sent me a screen print of the finalization page from Toys For Tots. If you'd like to say Thanks or meet Donny, his myspace his Myspace.com/donheyen.
Thanks to him, we're 1/50! That's not very close, so let's get some more donations. (: Remember, ANY time you donate to any organization for Christmas, you can upload a photo or submit a link to let me know you have been giving this year and I will post your donation and match it by one!
Happy Giving!
