Jess, Shayla & Chickabee Mayyyyyyy.

So, truth be told - I have 3 daughters. My oldest, Spoop was born on January 27th, 1995. Then came Shed on March 14, 1995. Lastly, was my baby Pebbles on August 22, 1995. Yes, I not even 2 years old when my first two were born. You know, I can never remember who their father is. I know it was a wild and crazy night at Gymboree, but for the life of me I don't know if it was Matty or Lenny. Or was it Robbie? Shit! Okay well anyway, they've grown up with out a father so why bring him into the picture now? I remember clearly that we were both down to our last few sips of milk in our new bottles when we realized both our mommy's had left to talk to our teacher. They seemed distracted enough so Matty/Lenny or Robbie and I hit the trampoline. We did the nasty and BAM, Spoop was concived. We had short get togethers after Spoop was born. That brought me Shed and Pebbles, you know? So, yes i've been a single mother for 14 years and i'm going on 16. It really is an every day struggle but i've learned that my daughters come first.

Okay, so all kidding aside. Spoop (Jessica) Shed (Shayla) and Pebbles (Erin) are my sister's friends. Erin is my sister. They pretty much are the Jane to my Fonda, since we spent 3 hours one night just doing the Jane Fonda. I take all the credit for putting the C word in their vocabulary, thank you very much. (Don't tell anyone) They are the best kids I know, and I call them my daughters because they all call me MOMMY KELSEY. I don't even have time to explain the whole story but in the short version, when you're in a crowded amusement park and the people you're with have friends who decided to just leave their 6-year-old twin girls by themselves - how could you NOT step in and take them under your wing? I had to! And they all called me Mommy Kelsey for it. Haha.

They are good kids who can SOMETIMES get into a little TROUBLE, but thats okay. I still love them and always will. They make me laugh too much, I could never hate them. They know that we will always have fun when we're together and that i'm always there for them no matter what. You know why girls? ....." 'CAUSE YA GOT TO HAVE FRIEEEEEEEEEEENDS!"

Goodnight everyone!

You're The One I Still Want Beside Me...

Tonight I'm keeping this simple. I know a woman who is beautiful, talented, smart, funny, caring, kind, quiet, loud, simple, unique, friendly, articulate, comforting, and simply amazing.

I'm so lucky to have her. I love you dear!

Miss. Janis Joplin
Jan.19.1943 - Oct.4.1970

It's so good to see your smile. I'd forgotten how nobody else could make me smile the way you do.

Derek Jeter and....Janis Joplin ?

Tonight I got kicked out of a bar and a cemetery. Haha. I went to have dinner with my dad and stepmom. We get IN the restaurant, SIT DOWN, and begin to order when the waiter says "Its 21 plus." Couldn't have told me that when I walked in! Then I went with my dad & stepmom, Tammy's ghost hunting group to explore an old cemetary. I was some what freaked out but nothing was really happening. We were there for about an hour, hour and a half when a cop suggested we leave. He wasn't rude AT ALL and just explained that he had been having to kick out a lot of teenagers and he felt bad since all we were doing was taking pictures. I don't know if I like the idea of ghost hunting. I may do it again sometime, but - maybe not.

So its 1 in the morning and I am totally exhausted. Hey - did you know that one year ago today (June 27th) Janis Joplin and Derek Jeter married for the second time. You didn't know that? Well thats because you haven't read "The Story of Jeter & Joplin" written by none other than me and my best friend Ally. There is J&J, J&J2, J&J3, J&J3.5(The Wedding Special), and J&J4. J&J 5&6 are coming out this summer. So these stories were written by us back when we were 13 and insane. Sure, 2 years later not much has changed. Anyway, i'm not going to get into detail but these stories are all about sex, drugs, sex, family, sex, laughter, sex, more sex, totally disgusting situations, and in the end - LOVE! Yes, Jacqueline Sussan would be proud. For those of you who have read a few, understand that they are pretty sick stories and most of you haven't been able to get past the 3rd one.

I have to say, Jeter & Joplin 4 was so gross that even I couldn't believe what we wrote. I can't even begin to talk to you about when Ally and I video taped the first and second ones. What were we thinking? Well, we'll probably end up taping them all. I'm telling you guys, after these stories, you never look at Derek or Janis the same. Ally and I can't help ourselves though.

So, before anyone asks i'm telling you right now - NO, YOU CAN'T READ THEM! I don't care who you are or what you mean to me - NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! Because then, i'll never be able to look you in the face again. Hahahaha After i'm dead, I give you all permission to read them and enjoy them.

Okay well, moving on. My other best friend Ashley had a really bad day and i'm soooooo sorry today happened. But dear buddy ole' pal of mine you know you still have me! Always and forever!!!!!!!! Oh, and when are we on for that dinner date with Patti Lupone and Jane Fonda? Hey - is it LuPone or Lupone? Do you capitalize the P or no? Let me know dollface!!!

Alrighty babies - i'm tired. I have a long day of partying with Ally tomorrow for Janis and Derek's one year anniversary. I'll blog again tomorrow night.

Sweeeeeeeeeeet Dreams!

Personal Feelings On Jane Fonda...

So today the beautiful Farrah Fawcett and the talented Michael Jackson died. I had a feeling Farrah was going to pass soon, but Michael shocked the shit out of me! Farrah was beautiful and it seems like just as the world was facing the fact that she was gone, BAM, Michael Jackson died. I still can't believe he's gone! I think this day will be remembered for a very long time since we lost two icons. May they both RIP.

So, I'm reading Go Ask Alice and find it interesting. I'm sure most of you know the story but its about this young girl who gets caught up in drugs and sex. All she keeps saying is "I wish I had somebody to talk to. I wish I had somebody to talk to." I couldn't agree more. There is so much I want to say about this. Young girls need influence. An older female who can show them the way. I think if they have good guidance, they won't get caught up in the drugs and sex. Now, that's not completely true. Sooner or later every girl tries drugs and has sex. I personally think if there is someone you can talk to about these things, then you are less likely to screw things up. I once spoke with a woman who said "Everyone has their mom, and that's great, but you can't tell moms everything." So you've got to find someone you can tell everything to!

It is very important to have someone with a good head to go to. Someone who has "been there, done that" and can remember what it feels like to be your age. Sometimes it is an aunt, a grandmother, sister, a teacher, cousin, friend, or even mother. Sometimes it is someone who you've never met in person but said everything you needed to hear. For me, it was Jane Fonda. It was her book that made me cry at just about every chapter. It was her telling me things I could never admit about myself. It was her going through things I went through and having feelings I had that made me realize...I was not the only one. Her book was divided into what she called 3 acts. From the ages of birth-30, 31-60, and 61-death. At 15, I'm only halfway through my first act but learned so much. Jane helped me with a lot of personal family relationships. It amazed me how the beautiful, talented, iconic JANE FONDA, had the exact same struggles I was having. I think her book will save me from making some mistakes in my future. Sure, mistakes will be made, but now my eyes are more open.

Jane speaks a lot about being a whole person. About owning yourself. At what age are you confident you own yourself? How do you own yourself? I don't think you can own yourself until you have self respect. I know that the only person I have forever in this world is me. Shouldn't I be giving myself the most respect? We're all guilty of losing ourselves sometimes and allowing someone else to say things they shouldn't say and do things they shouldn't do. It's normal. I wish that every teenage girl would pick up Jane's book and read what she has to say. I'm telling you girls, she is not a stupid woman. I think she wrote it mostly for adults, but I'm trying to get younger girls to get their hands on it and follow what she says. Just try it! I know it helped me.

I honestly give Jane all the credit for putting me where I am today. My head is different now from what it was when I was 13. She is an amazing woman who, I hope realizes her influence on teenage girls. I will always look up to her and love her. You know, she is a wonderful actress with some incredible movies too. Can't forget that part of her! I'm sure I could write another 5 paragraphs on her and her book but I'll just shut up already!

Goodnight everyone!!!

My First Blog!

I've been myspacing, facebooking, twittering and now - I must blog. I feel like Lily Tomlin and Jane Fonda! Except, for the fact that not even half of the people reading theirs will read mine. Oh well! I made my best friend Ashley make a blog tonight too. We both agree that it is very exciting to write them. As I get used to this, I will make these more creative and fun. It is all new to me, but i'll learn. The main reason why I wanted to start blogging is because I want to have a visual of my life. I may not blog every single day, but it will be interesting to look back on these in a few years. I also want my family that I don't see very often to be able to keep up with me. I wonder if my family knows that I swear more than I breathe? Maybe I shouldn't tell them about my blog. I do warn you in advance about my swearing. If Ashley didn't say that in her blog already then she should too! But for my first blog - I will be good and I won't swear. How kind of me? I think for right now this is all i'm going to write. I have to do some more exploring around this website and will get back to it. Jane Fonda always ends her blogs with "See You Next Time." so how should I end mine? Okay, I think i'm going to try this out...see if I like ending it this way.....


Call On Me! (i'll explain that story next time)
