Actually, I found a bunch of the Jimmy Stewart tweets addressed to me and other people and had to go back and favourite them just because Twitter for some strange reason unfavourited them. Sheesh. You’d think they’d work out their kinks after all this time.
But yep. These still make me smile…
Tania, how did I not know you had a tumblr! Following you RIGHT NOW. (By the way, this is Steph! From livejournal and facebook, I guess, and uh, twitter too. And that Christmas card you sent me. <3)
Do you know how many times I have like, mentally petitioned you to get on Idol and basically now, X-Factor? That voice cannot go to waste. It needs to be heard and err-waa recognized (JFK impression)! #TeamAsh
oooooh Tania. I love you so much. You always make me grin so hard when you tell me things like this. YOU HAVE THE GIFT OF AFFIRMATION. But I’m not wasting anything so long as YOU like it. ;)
I love you so much too! And aww, your music and your passion for life just totally brings out the happy hormones in me. And LMAO, thanks for reminding me about the ASK BOX! The other day, when you replied I was going to do it but like, didn’t know how and was looking on Google but then I got distracted because my mom bought a fruit tart and I indulged.
In conclusion…NOW I HAVE ONE, SO YAY! I don’t know how it works but it’s exciting! \o/
We’re soulmates, friends and lovers and everything else that makes a happy marriage. Our hearts are attuned to each other, and we’re very close. I’ll get up every morning at five o’clock and make the coffee, then start pacing the floor, wanting her to get up. But I’ll let her sleep for a couple of more hours. If she smells the coffee, she’s up.

STOP! and STARE!!
I have nothing else to say but that this is a piece of art! I am not just saying that. My buddy Ashleigh is seriously one of my favourite performers! I put her in that class of performers with musicians who’ve signed records because she is AMAZING! Period. She’s modest, warm-hearted and she doesn’t understand just how gorgeous the tone to her voice is. This performance of hers, gave me goosebumps also known as my new word, “goosies”! She sang it ever so tenderly with this sincere vulnerability and I guarantee, in the years to come Ashleigh will be your Idol. But remember. I’m her #1 fan!
Now. Enjoy…
Friendship Divorce
This is something that makes complete and utter sense to me. Over the years, I’ve befriended a lot of people and it’s now that I can actually see a difference between the two distinct types of friends and I am grateful to have them all in my life, in whichever way I can.
Excerpt below from GOOP newsletter: February 25, 2010
“What do you do when you realize that although you may have years of history, and found real value in each other in times past, that you kind of don’t like a friend anymore? That, after time spent with this person, you feel drained, empty, belittled or insulted. My father always used to tell me that, ‘you can’t make new old friends.’ How do you distinguish if someone in your life makes you change for the better or if you are better off without them?”
Cynthia Bourgeault replies:
“Old friends” and “true friends” are not necessarily identical. Old friends have stood the test of time; true friends are timeless. True friends may have been in your life since your childhood or they may have shown up only yesterday, but it’s from the quality of the heart that you know them, not the number of years you’ve logged together.
It pains me to say this, but I may be getting too mature for details.
My name's Tania! I'm a writer at MSNBC's Newsvine. I wrote a manuscript a couple of years ago and hopefully will get that published this century. I love movies and music, baseball and football (NFL), my friends offline and online and really enjoy pancakes along with burgers. Not together, of course. My life isn't complete without some Elvis Presley tunes and TCM; I love Jimmy Stewart too. A pen and paper must always be on hand. Oh and I'm an active member of Team Conan and I love Tina Fey!
