Still Need Another Day to Recover…

Yes, socializing for a few hours is exhausting.  It looks like today won’t be the day for an interesting blog entry either.  Poor you.  Well, at least I’ll make my nothingness short this time.

Choices for President - I don’t like any of ‘em

I really wish I liked any of the candidates running for president.  I don’t like Hillary, even though I like Bill, even though I probably shouldn’t.  I don’t like Barack Obama - I don’t trust a guy without pets, plus he seems phony to me.  I don’t like John Edwards, but I’d vote for Elizabeth in a second.  So, I’m all for an Edwards/Clinton ticket, but I want Elizabeth for president and Bill for vice-President.  Now, if All Gore would run, I’d like Al for prez, and Elizabeth Edwards as his running mate.  Hey, I can dream.  Also, if Michael Bloomberg runs, I’ll be torn.  I generally don’t vote for Republicans, but now that he’s an Independent…what to do, what to do?

Who do you want to run?  Who do you want to drop out?  Who would you vote for?

Thanks for the doggie/kitty bed (and other stuff), Mom & Dad

Tie kneads the bed to get it just right.

Cricket snoozes…and requests some facial hair tidying, posthaste.

Phoenix takes her turn.

 

 

terribly early in the morning

“Weeds” - No, no, no, the season needs to be longer!

I thought the winning “Little Boxes” video was kind of average, although the little girl was adorable.  I think the following video should’ve won.  That said, I can’t believe that these season is already over.  All in all, a very enjoyable season.  The kids are finally starting to be a part of the show that I don’t despise.  However, Celia is getting on my nerves.  I loved her in the first season, but I’m tired of her always screwing up Nancy’s life.

 

I’m sorry it plays every time my blog opens.  It’s just like MySpace, ick.  I need to figure out a way to stop that, without deleting the video.  I got this directly from the “Weeds” site, but maybe I can find a YouTube version.

A terrific Claymation version.  I love Claymation!

Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving, it’s 6:22am and my schedule is turned upside and twisted sideways and I don’t know if I’m supposed to be awake or asleep or what days I went to bed.  However, right now I’m going to bed after working all night/morning, but having had a couple of naps yesterday evening, after going grocery shopping, instead of going to bed.  Got that?  Me neither!  I’m going to sleep, and then we’re going over to my parents’ house for a Memphis BBQ Thanksgiving - turkey, ham, and prime rib.  Yum!  Leigh-Ann and I will probably make a small Diestel turkey sometime in the next couple of weeks, but part of that is because it’s just such a delightful scent for the house for a day or so.  But really, if turkey wasn’t your thing because you always thought it was dry and icky, get a Diestel from Whole Foods.  It’s fabulous.

If you watch the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, my niece is going to be in it.  She’ll be with a dance group from California.  Although, I guess I don’t know that all the kids are from California.  Anyway, she’s in either the second row or the second-to-last row (apparently they switch it up at some point) and then the instructions of where she’ll be in the row got somewhat confusing.  Near Santa or next to Godzilla or poking holes in balloons or something.  I’m recording it, so I don’t have to worry about missing anything.  I’ll see if I can post some still shots here.
