SportsBoy sent his email to Santa last night. Here I was thinking that I had dodged a $ blow by negotiating out of the Wii. Hah! On the surface, his list sounded manageable. Some Gameboy Advance games (not DS, but Advance, which are older and cheaper). "Some" translating to 9. Basically as entire series. 4... Continue Reading →
Speechless
I just don't quite know what to make of this. All I know is that as I read it, I could feel myself tensing internally. Then I reached this part: "I said, 'Tre, you missed the bear,' " Mike Merritt said. "He said, 'Paw-paw I squeezed the trigger and I didn't close my eyes. I... Continue Reading →
I know you’ve been dying to know this
As I prepare to head off to get SportsBoy so that he and I can go in for our visit to the dentist for cleanings, it occurs to me that there are two things I did for myself within the last couple of years that are just the BEST things I ever did. Lasik surgery... Continue Reading →
He likes it!
No, check that - he LOVES it! After seven (seven?!!) years with my SweetPrince, the hardest thing for me is buy him a gift. First of all, he's a guy. IF there is anything they really want/need they buy it for themselves OR it is too darned expensive for me to get. The latter is... Continue Reading →
Beware those first impressions!
It's funny sometimes how totally independent conversations drop topics into your mind that rattle around for a few days. Even funnier when they come to life 🙂 Friday evening I had a long chat with a friend I had not spoken to in awhile. We got caught up on things and then somehow it came... Continue Reading →
Dancing the night away
Since I decided yesterday to buy those MP3 players, I thought I should take advantage of a quiet Friday night at home and start downloading some music from my CD collection. Since my CD collection is really rather pitiful when compared to most peoples, it was been alphabetized for awhile. So, I didn't have to... Continue Reading →
Another rainy Friday
It's so funny how the last few years of rain patterns have been - weekends only! - and here we go again. Last Friday it rained non-stop and now it is the same today. Threatening any sports activity for the weekend because even if the rain stops, if the fields don't drain then they wont... Continue Reading →
Move, move, move!
Now, readers here just wont have that in their heads like I do. There is a dad who sometimes coaches baseball who always hollers out in his very resonating voice: "MOVE MOVE MOVE!!" when a runner needs to hustle. Consequently, this is stuck in my head and I am now prone to saying it, for... Continue Reading →
Buy Brad Pitt a shower head!
OK, yes, I am sorta stealing this headline and slant from a highly recommended diary on DailyKos, but...my reader totals are waaay lower and it's for a good cause!! You know that you are all concerned over making sure Brad is clean. Shiny. Smelling good. Right? Personally, I have always seen Brad more as an... Continue Reading →
Linky goodness
Yes, still in the habit of posting every day! Can't stop 😉 Well, I probably will this weekend since SB's baseball team just entered a tournament. That might stop my typing. Just wanted to give a quick shout out to my newly expanded blogroll. I wish I had been able to get as into NaBloPoMo... Continue Reading →
