Talk Hard

I was up late last night watching Pump Up the Volume again, and not for the first time I wondered, where do I belong? Generation-wise, I am a tween. I am neither Gen X or Gen Y, but somewhere in between. I love my iPod, but revere the things of my youth, from the eighties. [...]

‘doh! Forgotten thanks.

I thought for sure I had remembered to say thank you to my secret pal when I received her gift during the last week in April. However, it’s been pointed out that I haven’t and now I feel horrible! (In defense, DH was running me ragged doing all the handyman diy stuff to the house [...]

falling in love

Love is wierd. In movies, when you see two people who just don’t seem to click–they are constantly rubbing eachother the wrong way, you know it’s love.
My English teacher was like that this semester.
I am not saying I am falling in love with her. ::shudder::
Rather, over the course of the semester as I finally [...]

Stitch n Pitch

I could go on and on– the stitch n pitch thing was a load of fun, I hope to go again!
The tasty food at the yarn store ahead of time, all of the lovely knitted things to look at, and of course, my 15% discount…
then onto the game. The Dodgers were giving away stitch [...]

Humdinger

I just had one of those nightmares where you wake up with your heart pounding, terrified out of your wits.
What was in the dream that was so freaky? Let’s see…

a car straight off of the set of Christine, if Christine mated with a ford escort that was equipped with some East LA style bumpin’ hydraulics… [...]

Saying Goodbye

This is a totally lame thing, but don’t you just hate saying goodbye to your favorite shows for a couple of months? Then again, it’s probably my insatiable hunger for instant gratification and the way they pump everything into a cliffhanger for the season finales…
Most of the stuff I watch is coming back: Heroes, House, [...]

Thank God For 10 On Tuesday

I’m feeling better, and am actually going to get stuff done tomorrow, by God, I swear it. I slept poorly last night but still managed to fall asleep after I got back from dropping Megan off. Sleep seems to be the one thing that rules my life at the moment. I remember telling Barry in [...]
