My Obsessive Personality

I admit it, I'm a bit obsessive. I can't really help it, that's just my personality. One week I'll be completely obsessed with a certain song and I'll basically keep it on repeat. The next week it will be a particular movie, or band, or hobby, etc. When I first moved back to Utah, it was "Simple Plan" (The band, not the movie.) Then it was photography (often times I revert back to photography, actually.)

Lately, my fascination is a bit....hmm...darker? Maybe 'darker' isn't the right word to describe it, maybe 'unlikely' or 'unexplainable' would work better...

[Are you curious yet?]

*drum roll please*...

My new obsession is............Scott Peterson!

And by Scott Peterson, I mean THE Scott Peterson. The Scott Peterson convicted of murdering his wife Laci and unborn son, Conner. The Scott Peterson on death row at San Quentin Prison, awaiting death by lethal injection. The Scott Peterson that I was SO SURE WAS GUILTY when the search for Laci & Conner was going on, and all throughout the trial.

And now? Now part of me believes he's innocent. Or could be innocent, at least.

I am currently reading a book by Catherine Crier (a Court TV Host) called "A Deadly Game: The Untold Story of the Scott Peterson Investigation" -- A book where she clearly makes her opinion of his guilt very evident. However, there are several things in this book that make me DOUBT his guilt! So many leads that weren't taken seriously, so many sightings of Laci by neighbors the morning she disappeared that were counted out, other pregnant women in the area who were abducted and murdered and dumped in the San Francisco Bay with the same mutilations within rougly the same time frame ---- NONE of these things point to Scott as the abducter/killer!! It seems to me the police were only FOCUSED on Scott, therefore didn't WANT to persue any other leads because, in their minds, they "had their man."

I sent Scott a letter yesterday. Yes, you read that right. I sent him a letter. I don't think he'll respond because he's previously had people write to him, only to exploit his responses, and in the aftermath, he decided that responding was probably not a good idea anymore. But I still hope he does respond, despite all of that.

Don't get me wrong, I feel terrible for Laci and her family! No one should have to go through that kind of agony and senseless loss -- but I also don't think if Scott is innocent that he should be the one paying for the crime, certainly not with his life.

So. Any thoughts on all of this? Do you think he's guilty or innocent?

Making A Difference...

The Starfish Story
Original Story by: Loren Eisley



One day a man was walking along the beach when he noticed
a boy picking something up and gently throwing it into the ocean.

Approaching the boy, he asked, “What are you doing?”

The youth replied, “Throwing starfish back into the ocean.
The surf is up and the tide is going out. If I don’t throw them back, they’ll die.”

“Son,” the man said, “don’t you realize there are miles and miles of beach and hundreds of starfish? You can’t make a difference!”


After listening politely, the boy bent down, picked up another starfish,
and threw it back into the surf. Then, smiling at the man, he said…
”I made a difference for that one.”

A little bit of insight...

I am not usually someone who checks her horoscope, but today I decided to see what 'insights' it could give me, ha ha... For those of you who know about the current 'situation,' you'll see why I was a little taken back at how accurate this was.


Sunday, June 8, 2008 - Disappointment in a friend or lover and/or the realization that you have been neglecting your own needs for socializing, affection, and companionship is indicated. In either case, loneliness and feelings of desolation may arise. Perhaps you are sacrificing pleasure and love for the sake of achievements or to meet responsibilities. However, if you find yourself really unhappy right now, you probably need to reassess the balance in your life between work and play, between emotional needs and practical concerns.

Unimpressed

I received a picture/text message on my phone at 2:58 am while I was out running.... It was my ex, lying in bed without a shirt on, and the text said "Do you miss me?"

When I looked at the settings, I realized he NOT ONLY sent it TO ME, but he sent it to a California number, AS WELL!!!!!

I don't know what he thought he was doing, but he failed. Big time.

I am now certain, more than ever, that he was cheating on me.

Thoughts???

I am learning...

I am learning that no matter how much you care about someone, no matter how much you love them, there is nothing that you can do to assure they will feel the same way about you. And if they ever did care the same way you did, you can never guarantee that they will feel the same way tomorrow that they felt today.

The hopeless romantic doesn't think she believes in 'happily ever after' anymore.
