oh mah gah - channel four is here interviewing me right now about the cox @ home stuff ack!!
While cleaning out my address book to sync with my new phone, I came across one from a lady at Sellers Expositions about booth rental at an upcoming event. It took me a second to remember she wasn't some kind of porn spam - which was kind of hard to tell from her email address *@sellersexpostitions.com.
Oh shit, who am I kidding? It really was all about the gifts. :::shakes head no::: LOL :::nods head yes::: *big cheesy grin* ::::shakes head no::: :::nods head yes:::
(I love Eddie Izzard).
I am now firmly planted in the 30's (or the 40's, if you ask the Hatfields). We had alot of fun Saturday night, even if the dinner wasn't the greatest, but the bowling was a hoot - especially with the Rock-a-billy music.
Man, did I rake in the goods, too. Some of the goods I got were a great birthday card from Candi (tanka!), a Krispy Krack card for free doughnuts from Helen, a hiliarious book from my wish list, a robot kitty that doesn't have a name yet, but ranks high on the cool/creepy scale from Kelli, some great smelling candles from Lisa, and some hand-painted cards that are almost too nice to use from my mom. And I got a bad-ass new phone from Beau. Hell yeah!!
I even tried to watch some of the meteor shower, but it was just too overcast and cloudy to see anything.
Anyway, it was just really great to go out and be stupid with everyone - I haven't been bowling in forever, and it showed. :)
Thanks everbody - it was fun.
1. Name five things in your refrigerator: 2 bottles of Weber Reisling, a bottle of green Shrek ketchup, Chik-fil-a leftovers, Braum's milk, and ham.
2. Name five things in your freezer: Sugar, steaks, hamburger meat, Natey's mini-pancakes, and a pork roast.
3. Name five things under your kitchen sink: Cascade dishwashing soap, Windex, trashbags, paper towels, and stove-top cleaner.
4. Name five things around your computer: My calculator, my phone, my bottle of water, post-its, and the phonebook.
5. How do you plan to spend your weekend? Since tomorrow is "Pauladay" - it's all about me, me, me (except for taking Natey to his cousin's birthday party), and we are going out to drink, eat, drink, bowl, and drink. And Sunday I will recover.
x-box ebay jokes - some stupid people actually bid (and won-heh):
An empty x-box box
and
A link to buy a x-box.
Damn, people, do you not read the description before bidding?
Right now, this is the only X-Box I would spend any money on.
That horribly annoying kid from the Dell, Steve, has been badly beaten.
So the Red Cross is sucking it up and not using the Liberty Fund for telephone upgrades and other uses not associated directly with the September 11th attack.
It just sucks that they put Bernadine Healey through all the crap of berating her for setting up the seperate fund just for the victims, making her justify the Red Cross' decisions to allocate the funds elsewhere, and forcing her to resign, only to end up doing what she wanted to do in the first place. Arrgghh. So frustrating going through hell to only see everything go the way it should have in the first place. Assholes.
Ken, I gotta know - was "The Man Who Wasn't There" as good as I am hearing/hoping it will be? Not that I will ever get a chance to see it here in Oklahoma - I can't even find it listed as showing anywhere into December, even though it opened last month.
So this guy from Brazil comes forward and claims to be The Tourist Guy.
I dunno - yeah, he looks kind of like him, but gimme something else (being the suspicious person that I am). I mean, I guess it is a good way to get a contract with Volkswagon, but how pissed are they gonna be if someone else comes forward with a tad more proof to prove that they are the real deal and and that the guy they have under contract is bogus? Oh well, I am sure those corporate types know what they are doing, right?
Friday Five (from Heather's site):
1. What toothpaste do you use? Crest Whitening - which even though I don't drink any cokes or coffee, I still can't see it's made any difference. Used to use Aim forever, until I was pregnant - it was the only thing that upset my stomach, so I had to switch and just never went back.
2. What color/brand is your toothbrush? Ummm....I think right now it is a pink/grey one from Oral-B, something with a flexible head thing.
3. Do you use mouthwash? I use Biotene - it doesn't have alcohol in it so it doesn't burn.
4. What gum/breath mints/breath spray do you use? Mostly Eclipse gum - polar ice, but lately I have been carrying around the new Listerine Pocketpak strips.
5. How do you plan to spend your weekend? During the days I have mommy things to do like one kid's birthday party on Saturday and the pizza party/awards thing for Natey's soccer team Sunday and on Monday (since I am off for the holiday, it gets included - I am getting my hair colored and then going back to bed. :)
Yeah, I know it is sweeps month and it's all about the ratings, but, shit people, ya think maybe, just maybe, the President's address to the nation about Homeland Defense (gotta keep those grocery stores safe, after all) might be a bit more important than Friends or Survivor?
Call me crazy, but wasn't it not that long ago that they weren't showing any entertainment shows on at all because the news was all over the place, and now they can't even cover the President updating us on two of the three major networks? Bizarre.
Oh, and speaking of the war, just as I think that the guys at South Park can't go "there", they do. Last nights episode about the war in Afghanistan was dead on - they always strike a good balance between "that's just so wrong" and "they have a point", like the Elian episode and the election episode. The mom laying on the couch zoning to the constant news streams was so right - I was laughing my ass off. I love that show.
As if the freak, Michael Jackson, couldn't stoop much lower to get attention for his crappy album, Invincible, (which can't even crack the Billboard 200 album chart), he now alludes - through his friend, the psychic Uri Geller, to be on medication because he has been infected with Anthrax.
I think I am going to go out on a limb here and cry "BULLSHIT" on this one. If he was seriously infected - do you really think that this media whore would have his friend contact a British tabloid and not go to one of the major news organizations in his own country if he wanted this to slip out.
On another note, besides it being just fucking weird HE has custody of the two children that he paid his "wife" to have for him, not only did he give them fucked up names (Prince for the boy and Paris for the girl - which isn't completely devastating), his nickname for the boy is "Baby Doo Doo". WTF????
Just when you think this freak can't get any weirder.....
Hey, Mikey, it ain't gonna get us buying your cd - we all heard this crap the first time it came out in the 80's.
This dumb bastard seems just a tad bit surprised that his girlfriend didn't find it funny that he went to Vegas and got married to a STRANGER!!
Hello??!! I agree that you are supposed to drink and gamble when you go there, but you should only marry the one you came with - not one you found there. AND, he doesn't know where the new Mrs. is or remember much about her - AND, what kind of woman is she to marry a complete stranger? Damn people - lay off the free drinks a bit.
Which reminds me - I really wanna go to Vegas again. The only time I have been there was to go to a friends wedding and had found out I was pregnant with Nathan two weeks prior, so no drinking and was broke, (and the $80 I had stashed got thieved from the room), so no gambling. This time I want to do it up right. I would love to stay at the Bellagio but I am afraid it might be too stuffy and uptight, so maybe the Venetian, to compare it to the real thing, even though I doubt it could ever smell as bad as Venice really, really does - dead cats floating in the canal reek!! (Nice image, eh?)
Gah, I am so getting the travel bug again something fierce - it has been far, far too long and the sameness is getting to me.
