Who Let the Dogs Out?

Hello All,

How is everyone? Good I hope. I just want to say a hearty ha-ha for all the comments you all sent me about nearly killing Frank Sinatra. I especially like the comments that I shouldn't be left alone with small children. What can I say I like my men to have a sense of humor. To be honest I feel bad about what I did and the cat still doesn't look healthy and he still hisses at me whenever he sees me.

On another funny note: I have to tell you about my dinner a couple weeks ago. I was invited to attend a fund-raiser for a political candidate. My friend Nadia invited me to go with her; I think she was trying to set me up on a blind date. So, lets move ahead past the speeches and the request for money. My friend and I were the only two single women there under the age of 50. So, you know all the women there did not say a word to us. Which I found to be extremely funny. We were seated at a mix table: single, married, young and old. My supposed "blind date" never showed up.....once again the story of my life. However the evening wasn't a total bust. I was seated next to this very recognizable gentleman who kept giving me the eye. Finally, after staring at me for over an hour he made his move. He said to me that he could easily make me his fourth wife. I just smiled and said to him that all depends on how big the ring is. Besides I don't think the country is ready for someone like me to be in the White House.

I need adult supervision

Hello All,

How are you guys doing? How was every one's weekend? Good I hope. Mine was very funny. I did a very bad thing this past weekend. I am one step closer to going to hell. Now after you read this please do not send me any hate mail..I already feel guilty.

My next door neighbor is an elderly lady with a lot of pets. She has three cats, two dogs, some fish, two birds, a hamster and a bunny rabbit. She has named all of her pets after 1950/60s icons. For instance her three cats and two dogs are named after the "rat pack". That's right there is; Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr, Dean Martin, Joey Bishop and someone else who I can't think of at the moment. Anyway, you get the picture. OK, so my neighbor was going out of town for a week and she asked me to look after her pets. I was more than happy to and on top of that she was going to pay me $40/day. Now I would have watched her pets for free, but she insisted on paying me. Side note: taking money from the elderly lady next door is not why I am going straight to hell....it gets worse. Alright, so the week goes by and everything is fine all the animals are alive and counted for. My neighbor comes back home and she looks great and bakes me some cookies as token of her appreciation. Everything is fine right.........wrong. Over the weekend I keep getting these 911 text messages. And naturally I ignore them, because I don't know who keeps texting me 911. Finally my neighbor knocks on my door, and she is clearly upset. I ask her what is wrong? Does she need an ambulance? Does she need me to take her to the hospital? No, no, no she responds, she then proceeds to ask me if I gave Frank Sinatra his seizure medication. OOPS! BIG OOPS! Now here is my opportunity to do the right thing and just come clean. But yours truly chickens out and says "of course I gave him his medication, everyday for a week." My neighbor then says she is going to have to take him to the hospital because something is wrong. She takes the cat to the emergency vet hospital they tell her its a good thing she brought the cat in because he could have died and it just gets worse from there.

I brought Frank Sinatra a get well soon gift (because I feel guilty I almost killed him) and I am not lying the cat gave me this look. He looks so pitiful he has to wear an oxygen mask and he just kept hissing at me the entire time I was visiting him. I am so ashamed, but I can't confess to my neighbor. I am going to have to take this one to the grave. I know I am going straight to hell.....I can't even take care of some pets. I need adult supervision.

Its Not You.......Its Me

Hello All,

How is everyones' week going so far. Good I hope. Mine has been going very good. I have been steadily working on the next phase of my life and I have to admit it I am very excited. I want to thank all of you for wishing me the best. I have made so many wonderful friends and I am truly going to miss all of you.

For those of you who have expressed concerned I also want to thank you; and I should clarify why I am taking the summer off. It has nothing to do with anything someone did or said to me. It is very simple....I am burned out. I have been "Cameron Leigh" for a lot longer than I would like to admit. I have been living a double life for so many years; I can not distinguish between reality and fiction any more. I want to be able to have a conversation with someone and it not involve sex. I tired of lying to my family about what I do . I want to have some piece of mind in my life. I know it is a clique but it is true... its not you its me. I wish I had a crystal ball and I can predict the future, but I can't. I do not know what is going to happen to me. I may come back after the summer or I may not. I want to thank all of you for giving me advice and helping me. And I promise I am only an email or phone call away. I love you all.

Hugs & Kisses,
Cam

Taking The Summer Off

Hello All,

How is everyone doing? Good I hope. Can you believe it; it is already June. Where has the year gone to? I can still remember what I did for New Year's. Before you know it will be December. I have made a decision in regards to my life. I am going to be taking the summer off. I am going to keep my schedule for June and two weeks in July, but after that I will be pursuing new interests. I need to take this time off and re-focus on me. I hope you all understand and don't worry you can still reach me by email or call me on the phone whenever you need your Cameron fix.

Sex and the Single Girl

Hello All,

First let me say "Thank You," for all the warm wishes I received on my birthday. To para phrase Sally Field you really like me. I had a wonderful birthday I spent it with family and friends and loved ones. I didn't even mind the fact that I am getting older. As a matter of fact I proud about getting older. I used to have serious hang ups about getting older, but with age came this confidence that I never had before. I became more self assured, my looks didn't matter as much to me, I started to speak differently. All of those things started to happen to me as I got older. Which leads me to today's topic of discussion: Sex and the Single Girl.

This was a book published in the early sixties (before my time) by the editor-in-chief of Cosmopolitan Magazine, Helen Gurley Brown. The book basically encourages women to actively pursue a full single life, which includes acquiring a career, gaining financial independence and accepting ones looks. All good things to say to young impressionable women. Which is why I am puzzled by an article I read in the New York Times. Now I am not sure what the author was trying to achieve with his commentary, but it left me a little upset to say the least. The author in my opinion was suggesting that women have gotten more promiscuous over the years. In the age of Paris Hilton, and Britney Spears young women have opted out of traditional relationships and one night stands have become the norm. Young ladies do not want a car for graduation but instead want a boob job. As I have mentioned I am not sure about the point the author was trying to make so I will make it for him. I mean it is my blog and I can do whatever I want to.

The point is this: if young ladies attitudes have changed in regards to relationships maybe we should look at the big picture. We should exam society for making Paris Hilton and Britney Spears role models, musicians who use women as objects, props in their videos and lets us not forget the key factor in all of this...MEN. I am still waiting to meet a man who puts intelligence first before beauty when describing his ideal woman. With all the pressure young women have today is it no surprise that one night stands are on the rise.

Now I am sure some of you are going to read this and think I am some type of fem-a-Nazi, but I am not. I just believe in kissing a lot of frogs before you find your prince.

Hugs & Kisses,
