Ever had one of those days where you just didn’t want to get out of bed? Where it took every ounce of effort, and you had to dig deep, very deep, to find the strength to get up? Where you just wanted to sit down and cry? Where the weight of the [...]
:: The Birthday BBQ was wonderful. Mike did an awesome job preparing great food, and it was wonderful to be able to kick back and enjoy the time with friends and family. We will have to do it again soon - because there is a lot of meat left over! Thank [...]
Earlier this week I was trying to think of profound things to share about my birthday - but the day is here, and I have nothing. Another year has passed, with many changes. Many good, some bad, and I’m grateful for all of it.
Tonight Mike is hosting a Birthday BBQ for Kathy & [...]
I just spoke with Kymberlie again, and she said she received her flowers and her balloons and she loved them! She said they made her cry - she was really touched that we thought of her.
I actually ended up with more money then I needed for the flowers and balloons, so I am putting [...]
I spoke to Kymberlie at about 2pm - she sounds less “wheezy” then she did yesterday, but well medicated and sleepy. She said she’s done nothing but sleep today and eat a little bit, which is good. She still doesn’t know a definite date as to when she will be released.
I will be [...]
I just sent this message via e-mail to a bunch of people, but I’m afraid I may have left someone off. So here it goes - my open invitation to share the love.
As you may already know, Kymberlie was admitted to the hospital yesterday. As you might also know, Kymberlie & [...]
Would you think less of me if you knew that I really, really, really want a Barry Williams Autographed Photo, personally made out to me with “Have a Sunshine Day” or “To a totally groovy chick” inscribed on it? The Brady Bunch first aired the night before I was born. I think an [...]
They told me last night at the H-Town Happy Hour that I should be very careful admitting this, as the Catholic mafia may come and hunt me down or something … but I’m throwing caution to the wind.
Pope John Paul I died the day after my 9th birthday. September 28, 1978. I remember [...]
A fantastic time was had by all at the H-Town Blogs happy hour last night! Ahhh… I realized why I have been able to tolerate Houston a lot more lately - it’s all the great people that are here. It is always so cool to meet other bloggers in person. I know [...]
Last night was my first night of the big season premiere week - I had no interest in any of the shows that were on Monday, and Third Watch doesn’t start until next week. By the way, what have they done with Crossing Jordan? *sigh* I hope they didn’t end the show [...]
:: H-Town Happy Hour tonight at Cabos. If you’re in Houston, I hope you can make it!
:: I tweaked all of the blog skins over the weekend, fixing the blogrolls and hopefully taking out all the code that was slowing some skins down. Let me know if you have any problems [...]
Like most women, I have a bit of an addiction to shoes. I can admit it. I like shoes. I like purses too, especially black ones. On a number of occassions, I’ve had to stop myself from buying a purse or a pair of shoes that I didn’t really need, but [...]
It’s that time of year again. Season premieres are finally here! I have the Tivo set to pick up Frasier and Judging Amy tonight, but I forgot to tell it to record one show. 8 Simple Rules also premieres tonight, in a season that will be reworked to fit around the fact [...]
Know what is guaranteed to make your Monday a good day? Receiving a bouquet of a dozen gorgeous red roses at work! Whee! They are just so beautiful, and definitely makes my Monday a happy day! (Click photo for larger version.)
Why did I get flowers today, you ask? Because [...]
This is a link that I would normally post over there in my sidebar in the “Cookie Crumbs” microblog, but considering I haven’t really heard any buzz about it at all lately, I wanted to post it in my main blog instead, just to get your attention. Check out Skype. Why? Because [...]
Mike and I decided to go out to dinner tonight, even after getting the news that his friend wasn’t going to be in town. So far, it’s only 10pm and yet still it has been a very eventful evening!
:: I stopped Kathy from buying shoes. I was able to remind her about [...]
The other morning, I was listening to the radio while coming in to work. They started talking about the first perfumes and colognes they owned. Maria kept going on about how her first was Exclamation! Their tagline was something like, “Make a statement without saying a word…” It was all hysterically [...]
In case you missed the clips of the stupid newscasters being tossed around in the winds of Isabel, here is a clip of NBC’s Brian Williams out in the storm. At about the 3 minute mark, you can hear him say, “I can just hear the people at home saying they got what they [...]
To All Media Types on the East Coast:
Please. There is a hurricane outside. WHAT do you think you are doing, going out side? Do you think that anyone can understand the broadcast that is full of “bprrreeekkkk” sounds constantly due to the wind? And you’re telling people to stay indoors - [...]
Hard to believe that it was just a year ago that Picture Yourself was launched. A lot of wonderful and amazing pictures have been shared there in the span of a year. It has received attention from the press, but much more importantly - it has made a lot of people smile.
So on [...]
