Once again, I’m using OneNote to compose my Random Randomness© in. I’ve used it SO many times over the past three days. I’ve stored recipes in it, used it to save Google search results, television schedules, movie information….just so much stuff. I absolutely LOVE this program. I totally cannot believe I’ve had it this whole time and didn’t even know what it was. I’m going to be going through all my Microsoft crap tomorrow (errr…later today) to see what other goodies I’ve got hiding!

Tomorrow (later today since it’s just after 1AM) is my fasting day. My buddy, Matthew, and I fast every single Monday. I admit I accidentally skipped a Monday, but I’ve been pretty good about it. I know Matthew has been doing well also. He’s also been doing his whole Yoga/Push-ups/Sit-Ups thing, so he’s turning into a real Tony Little…minus all the annoyance.

I finally got smart and typed out a ginormous list of different lines of HTML code that I use daily and saved it in OneNote. I can’t tell you how much time I’ve already saved myself. Instead of typing all this lengthy code out all the time, now all I do is open up my OneNote HTML notebook, copy the code I need, and paste it wherever it’s going! Zap! Quick, fast, and in a hurry! I cannot believe it took me all this time to finally bother doing it. I’ve been threatening to for a few years now. Yes…Y-E-A-R-S. I put most procrastinators to shame!

I’ve been drinking a tumbler of tea every night for the past few nights. It’s a really lovely way to wind down. I’ve been going with the Vanilla Chai flavor from the folks over at Bigelow. It’s really very tasty. I enjoy the hell out of it.

When Lonnie and I met with our daughter’s teacher at our parent/teacher conference, I made sure to ask what the school’s policies are with the children bringing home baked goodies to school. The last school our daughter went to had a strict NO HOME BAKED GOODIES!!! rule. Apparently they were freakishly paranoid about one of the kids bringing poisoned treats to school or something. Well, I was informed by my daughter’s teacher that there is no such rule at this school!!! I got SO excited. I told the teacher to be expecting a lot of super cute cupcakes to come her way.

It’s been so nice to finally see Lonnie get a little active with My.Opera. He posted some stuff on his blog the other night. It wasn’t only good to see him on there because he’s never on there and I enjoy his company….it was also nice to see him on there doing something other than work. He’s such a work-a-holic. I knew that’s how he was when we got together, so I do my best not to bring it up or gripe about it….that’s a lot easier said than done sometimes.

Wow…I just got struck with a GIANT wave of grogginess!!! That’s good. If I were smart, I’d get off of here immediately and go lay down. Too bad I’m a complete moron when it comes to this stuff. I drive poor Lonnie insane with the avoiding the doctor bit.

I wasn’t going to, but I think I really am going to lay down this time. I’m feeling more and more groggy….and like my body is essentially shutting down. I’d rather be in the horizontal position when that occurs.

It seems like I just cannot win. I either do nothing but sleep, or I go for days, weeks, even months on the absolute minimal amount of sleep needed to keep a human being alive.  

I know I’m complaining AGAIN, and I apologize for doing so. There’s just been so much crap going on in my life lately that I feel like if I don’t occasionally vent the crap, I’m going to get crap overload and end up in the loony bin or something.  

Okay, I will spare you the dull ‘poor me’ BS. I apologize for being gone from my blog for so long. There’s a very, very valid reason, but it’s one which I don’t feel as though the entire world is entitled to know about.           Just know that I’m back and I have a lot of making up for lost time to do!

I missed all of you, my friends and readers more than you can possibly know. Honestly. You’re not just ‘online peeps’ to me. You’re my lifeline to…well, you just are. You guys lift my spirits, make me laugh, turn bad days to good days, make me know I’m never alone….you’re all just amazing and I adore all of you. Of course, some more than others…hahaha…          But still - I love you guys!

Here’s what I made for my BFF,  Sarah and me.

It shouldn’t have taken me as long as it did.

I’m getting slow in my old age.    :roll:

Anyway, here is it…as usual you can click it to make it bigger.

(Don’t you wish other stuff worked like that, too?! haha)

So anyway, I love you so much, Sarah.

I wish we could really get a kazillion dollars

together and hang out, go shopping, ..etc! w00t!

Love You!

“Daddy” is the nickname I call Lonnie. Well, I was looking for something to do a bit earlier, and I decided to make him a graphic. Nobody but him will probably appreciate it…and I’ll actually be surprised if he appreciates it, himself.

So, without further ado, here is Lonnie’s gem of a graphic.       Keep in mind that I’ve not slept in almost 48 hours and am stressed out more than I knew possible.
