To he who shall not be named,


First, I want to say thank you.

Thank you for reminding me what I don't want in a man. Thank you for setting me free from being with someone who would never love me the way I deserve to be loved. Thank you for helping me find myself and realize my worth does not come from being loved by someone else. Thank you for helping me realize my friends were right about you. Thank you for making me realize that if I was still with you, I could never be who I am now. Most of all, thank you for doing me wrong, because I would have never found the person who I am meant to be with.

Secondly, I want you to know I am praying for you.

I pray you find someone you really love and can stay faithful to. I pray you grow up and become a man and not just a boy. I pray you find the real meaning of love and the way the person you love deserves to be treated.

Thirdly, I want to say sorry.

Sorry you weren't man enough to break up with me in a mature way. Sorry I had to find out from your friends because they liked me better than you. Sorry you had to fake everything you said to me for weeks before I found out because you weren't strong enough or man enough to tell me the truth.

Lastly, I want to say goodbye.

Goodbye to the times we had together. Goodbye to all the laughs and inside jokes. Goodbye to the verbal abuse you made me think was normal to endure. Goodbye to the tears I cried over you and goodbye to the endless amounts of money I spent on you that could have been spent on much more deserving people. Most of all I want to say goodbye to the truly messed up relationship we had. I won't miss it.

So to the boy who I thought I loved, thank you for setting me free and for that I am fully unapologetic. Without you, I would have never found out what real love is or have the love that I have in my life today.

Finally, I have the courage to write a letter to you that I should have written a long, long time ago.

Sincerely,

Me

I am going to a rhyme without reason date function and I have looked at so many different rhyming words and I figured there need to be a new list of words. At these functions, there are usually at least two rockers and boxers and an umpteenth amount of dogs and frogs. I have come up with a list of creative and unique ideas for these functions.

If you like what you see, get a shopping cart going with these costumes.

Epic Creation Myths: Norse Origins Unveiled

What happened in the beginning, and how the heavens were set in motion.

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.

We all scroll through the radio stations in the car every once in a while, whether its because we lost signal to our favorite one or we are just bored with the same ol' songs every day. You know when you're going through and you hear a song where you're just like "I forgot this existed!" and before you know it, you're singing every word? Yeah, me too. Like, 95% of the time. If you're like me and LOVE some good throwback music, here's a list of songs from every genre that have gotten lost in time, but never truly forgotten.
