• I’ve been doing SO well lately. I guess it’s been about a week and 1/2 now. It’s like I’m so happy and nothing can bring me down…not that I’d want it to. I just feel so emotionally free to be me and feel less bogged down with a ton of emotionally draining stuff I had gotten used to dealing with. Now that I’ve no longer got that issue in my life, I feel like I could conquer the world!

• My coffee today is SO good. This time I am drinking Bella-Vista Blend by Starbucks. I know it’s Starbucks, and Starbucks tends to taste a bit burned, but I’ve noticed that this higher quality stuff they’ve been putting out lately is truly delicious. I also strayed from my usual Hazelnut Coffee Mate Creamer and am now trying Vanilla Nut. It’s so tasty and a wonderful trade-off from Hazelnut.

• My landlord came over the other day and plotted out a big area where he is going to rototill a spot for us to plant a big garden. I seriously just cannot wait! It’s been so long since I’ve grown veggies. I will be spending so much time outside…which I normally do in the summer, anyway. We plan to grow carrots, tomatoes, potatoes, onions, lettuce, broccoli, cauliflower, and a bunch of other tasty stuff. It’ll be so awesome. My Mom is really good with canning, too, so she can bottle a bunch of it up so it’ll last us a really long time. We’ll grow lots of cucumbers as well so that she can make pickles. Mmm…homemade pickles are the best!

• Lonnie’s 32nd birthday was on the third of March. He said it was one, if not THE best birthdays ever! He not only got a lot of gifts, but I baked him the cake he really wanted and we all spent a lot of time together as a family. For dinner, my Mom bought a couple Dominoes pizzas, so that was a treat, too. We very rarely eat out at all. It’s just too expensive. I will be blogging lots of pictures that I took on his birthday. One of the gifts he got….the one from my Mom…made his whole year! I can’t wait to post the pictures of him opening it. I’m not going to say what it is. I don’t want to ruin it. Hehe

• I am on Facebook again. I know I swore that I’d never go back there, but oh well. One of my best friends, Jenn, kinda talked me into it. Well, not really talked me into it…but just hearing about how much fun she was having over there made me want to give it another shot. I’m so glad I did, too!!! I not only hooked up with my brother, John, there…but I am talking with my best friend from High School, Tera, again!!! It’s so awesome to be talking with her! I’m going to be going back to Billings, MT next summer, so I will get to see her again, too. Not only that, but I’ll get to see Casey, too!!!! I’m SO excited!!!! So much to look forward to!

• The person I had posted about before - ‘Kristy’ - she left a message in my shoutbox on My.Opera today. I was a bit…uh…stunned, to say the least. I’m not going to respond. As I’ve already stated, she’s dead to me. It was a nice message and I suppose I appreciate her attempt, but I just wish she’d move on for once and for all. I never even talk about her anymore…rarely think about her. I wish she’d just do the same for me. I feel so much more mature and emotionally stable now than I did when I was friends with her…I have zero reasons to rekindle anything with her. I feel like responding to her message would be the start of words being spoken back & forth and that’s simply not something I want…ever again. I was wronged and that’s the end of it.

• Speaking of the rest of the story…The great Paul Harvey died on March 7, 2009. He was 90 years old, so I’m happy that he lived a long and full life. He touched so many people’s lives, too. I remember watching his crotchety little speeches at the end of 60 Minutes when my parents were watching it when I was a kid. He always caught my attention. He will be missed by many, no doubt.

• Why does my daughter talk SO loudly when she’s on the phone with her friend?      Doesn’t she realize that the phone amplifies her voice and she doesn’t need to do that?! GOSH! How irritating. I’ll have to go ask her AGAIN to tone it down a bit.

• Lonnie is going to be heading to the grocery store in a little while. Better him than me. I absolutely detest grocery shopping. He’s nice enough to go do it for me most of the time. He also says that he’s more productive when I’m not with him, anyway. I tend to get him side-tracked. I also take pictures of everything, so that probably annoys the heck out of him.  

• I’ve made a few more really good online friends recently. I feel so blessed to be in contact with so many truly good people. I can’t tell you how many people wrote to me to ask me how I was doing after the “break-up” of my ex-friend and I. People I never even used to talk to. Apparently she’s done this to quite a few other people that I was unaware of, so now it’s almost like we’re forming an “Ex-Wives Club”….    
  I don’t say negative things about her, really. I simply speak my side of the story. There’s nothing good to come from defaming her. I just find it so interesting that this is a cycle which has apparently repeated itself quite a few times. If anything, I feel sorry for her. It’s obvious that she’s quite unhappy with herself. I hope that she will one day learn to stop pretending to be happy and learn to truly be happy. I, myself, feel truly happy at this point in my life, and lemme tell ya’…it’s a magnificent feeling! I’m sure that if she were truly happy with herself, none of this stuff would ever happen again. So, my wish for her is true happiness.

• Sorry I keep going back to talking about that situation. It’s weird how it keeps popping into my head as I type this. Perhaps I subconsciously wonder if she’ll read it or something, and maybe it’ll help. Not a clue, but I wish it’d stop. Like I said - I really AM over it. There were a few days where I was sad and felt like I missed her, but those days have long passed. Now I’m enjoying my life to its fullest.

• Okay - ENOUGH about that crap. I promise.

• I’ve been taking lots and lots of pictures, but haven’t had the time and/or gumption to get them resized and posted. Some of them are pretty awesome, too. As usually, there’s a little bit of this and a little bit of that…just whatever. I’ve snapped a few of random people as well, so I will be getting back to my Random Person of The Day© posts. I always did enjoy those.

• How can my feet possibly be this cold? I not only have socks on, but I also have my tootsies in my foot warmer/massager thingy. They’re still freezing. I must have the worst circulation of anyone I know.

• It’s odd that my circulation is so bad. I’ve been working out lately! Lonnie used his Christmas money from his grandparents to buy the family a membership to the local Rec. Center. They have a full gym with all the machines a person could ever want or need, a big pool with a slide and everything, hot tub, indoor track, basketball courts, rock climbing wall, FREE classes - such as Yoga, spinning, aerobics…etc. They have a bit of everything. It’s amazing. The cost is only $30/mo. for the family…but since he paid for a year in advance, he got a better deal. So anyway, I’ve been using it. I’m getting this old, flabby body into shape! I want to be able to post a picture of me in my bikini this summer and not feel totally self conscious about it. I normally pack on weight in the winter….always have. That’s a given for me. So now, I’m in the process of removing it. I love working out, too. The more energy you put out, the more you get back…and that feels great!

• I’m still having back/neck pain issues. Pretty bad ones, too. It’s preventing me from doing some exercises that I would really love to do, but that’s okay. I will slowly work up to them. My doctor referred me to a pain management clinic, so I should be getting in there any day now. I’m just waiting for a phone call from them. I’m very excited. If I can get this pain under control, I will feel so amazing!

• We’re still going to church every Sunday. I actually enjoy it quite a bit. Our pastor is a really personable and funny guy. He’s always telling stories that get the whole congregation laughing our keisters off. He makes learning about the Bible fun…and that’s a rare thing. I’ve only been to 3 or 4 churches prior to this one, and they were all so boring and bland. No life in there, really. This one is full of life and the people are so friendly. They’re not freaky, either. I don’t like the ones where people go nuts raising their hands, crying…all that. It makes me SO uncomfortable to be around this. The people at this church are just regular people like you and me…and are there to get a good message.

• It still feels weird for me to say that I’m going to church. I NEVER would have thought that I’d be saying that. I’m glad I am…it just takes me back a bit, though.

• Lonnie is looking at a Jack Russell Terrier online right now. These people are moving and can’t take their dog with ‘em. He’s 5 years old and is free. I don’t want a Jack Russell, though. I like them - very smart dogs. I want a Toy or Tea Cup Chihuahua and that’s final!      I won’t be happy ’til I get one! We can’t have a dog in this house, anyway, so the point is moot.

• I suppose I will wrap it up for this edition of Random Randomness©. It’s been SO long since I’ve posted one…feels weird to do it again. I’ll try to get better about posting over here on my site, but no promises. Take care, everyone…thanks for dropping by!

Seven years ago today, I met the one person who has made me feel more loved than anyone else has ever made me feel. As some of you may already know, Lonnie and I met on the Internet. It was on the 18th of December, 2001 that we finally met in person. From the moment we saw each other, both of us felt as though we’d known each other for a very long time. It was almost a feeling of being reunited after a long period of not seeing one another. I know how cliché that sounds, but it’s so true.

As with all relationships, Lonnie and I have certainly had our ups and downs. We continue to have them! That’s normal and healthy. One thing has always been consistent, though, and that is our love for each other. Yes, we grate each other’s nerves and want to kill each other at times, but we always make up and are reminded why we’re together. We have a solid foundation. That’s so important…and a first for both of us.

Anyway, today’s a sentimental day for me. I keep daydreaming about the day we met and have been reliving it in my head. I find myself smiling ear-to-ear when I realize I’m thinking about it. I remember the first time I looked into his eyes as if it were two minutes ago.  :)

Lonnie - Happy Anniversary, Daddy! I love you with my whole heart and would do anything for you. I’m so lucky to be one of the people who can say they found their perfect match. I hate the term “soul mates”, so I refuse to say that’s what we are….but the feelings are all still there. Thank you for always being there for me…and for sticking it out through thick & thin. I love you.

• I got all my Christmas cards sent out tonight! I couldn’t have done it without the help of my beautiful daughter, though. She’s the one who actually ran them to the box while I video taped her doing so. We’re a tag-team of jolliness!

• Lonnie’s in some serious dental pain again. It makes me so sad. I wish there was something I could do. The last time, he had four teeth pulled on the right side of this mouth. This time he has a molar on the bottom left that’s really bothering him. He’ll either have to get a root canal or have it pulled. Either way…ouch.

• So, I found out earlier today that Pownce will be shutting down. I cannot even begin to explain how angry this makes me, so I won’t even try. All I will say is that they are money hungry sell-outs who should be ashamed of themselves.

• I’ve decided to do Christmas Cupcakes this year instead of Gingerbread Men like I did last year. I’m not sure what I’m going to do with them yet. I’m either considering a standard frosting with standard decorations on them, or I might use Fondant and do something super adorable with them. The latter method will take much more time, so I just don’t know. I have a HUGE list of people to make a cupcake for. I’ll just have to weigh the pros and cons.

• We just ran out of coffee creamer. Now I’m steamed.

• I got some women’s daily vitamins earlier tonight. Lonnie sent me to Walgreen’s to grab some for him, so I figured, “What the heck?!” and grabbed a bottle for me, too. They were on sale, so they were super cheap…err…inexpensive. They’re Walgreen’s brand, but hey - same thing as the other junk they charge out the buttocks for, right? I’ll let you know if I notice a change in energy.

• I hate it when I’m sitting on the toilet peeing and I reach over to grab some toilet paper and I suddenly notice that there’s hardly any left. So then I have an angel on one shoulder and Satan on the other. The angel is saying, “Just use the last of it and replace the roll. It’s the right thing to do.” But Satan, he’s a big jerk who’s saying, “Leave two squares on the roll so the next sucker who uses the toilet has to replace the roll!” Well, it must say something about my character that I’ve never listened to Satan. I always change the stinkin’ roll…begrudgingly, of course.

• I’m sick and tired of people thinking that my son and I are either boyfriend/girlfriend or brother/sister. I know I should take it as a compliment…blah, blah, blah. I don’t, though. I hate having to explain my relationship with strangers. What the heck business is it of theirs? Next time I’ll just say, “My boyfriend? Is that what they call pimps nowadays?”

• No, I’d never really do that. GOSH!

• Speaking of “Napoleon Dynamite”, he was on TV again last night. My son was watching it. He used to loathe the movie. Now he loves it. How does one go from hating something to loving it? My theory is that he’s heard me doing Napoleon impressions and making reference to the movie SO much that he had no choice but to watch it a couple times just to see what the heck I was on about…which resulted in his enjoyment of the movie! Mission accomplished!

• I got an email from someone asking if I would be willing to link to their site if they would link to mine. After looking at their site in detail, my thought was something like, “Mmmm…..I think I’ll pass.” It’s a gaming site. Not like the cool kind of gamers….like the Pogo type of gaming. Flash games. First of all, I rarely play those things myself, and even if I did, how the Hell is having a link to my site on a site like that going to benefit me? HE is clearly the one who would benefit from it…not me. So nah - I’ll pass. I didn’t even bother to email the guy back. Rude, perhaps. But I figured that if I emailed him, he’d email me back again with reasons why it really would work…etc. Meh…nope. Not biting.

• I ripped my French tips off again today after being on my computer for ten minutes. I don’t get it. I used to be able to go literally months with those things on and type like nobody’s business. Now when I have ‘em on, they drive me freakin’ nuts. I just can’t take it. They last two days and then BAM! I snap and rip ‘em off…which, I might add, hurts like the dickens.

• Where did the term, “Like the dickens” come from, anyway? I’m assuming it’s an English thing. Silly blokes.

• I need a coffee refill (imagine that), so I shall return briefly…

• I’m back. Don’t get too excited. You might fall backwards off your chair and break something vital…like your CPU.

• I don’t like Beck one bit.

• It’s 3:50AM right now. I swore I was going to try to get on a regular schedule today. Darn it. I blew it again.

• Maybe I should go lay down in bed and attempt to sleep. I mean, an attempt is better than nothing, right? I have to be up in a few hours to wake my daughter up for school and whatnot, though, so it just seems kinda stupid. As soon as I fall asleep, it’s time to wake up. Duh. What’s the point in that?

• Our house is 3/4 decorated for Christmas. We have so much stuff, we have to decorate in shifts. Tomorrow should be the last day and then we’ll be done. It’ll look so jolly in here that Santa, himself, would be like, “Wow. These people need to learn moderation!”

• I’m feeling so sorry for Lonnie and his pain that I’m going to get off of here and go offer him a massage or something to take his mind off his tooth pain. The poor guy. It’s like just as soon as one thing is taken care of, something else pops up. I feel so helpless. All I can do is be supportive and sympathetic. At least I’m good at those things.

• Have a wonderful day, everyone! Remember to be nice. Santa sees everything you do.

• Thanksgiving went pretty well, I suppose. As you probably know by now, I loathe cooking, so Thanksgiving is basically the most torturous holiday of all for me. Lonnie helped me quite a bit this year which not only surprised me, but made me appreciate him SO much! The only thing my mother did was make her special stuffing and then stuff and sew up the turkey. Lonnie and I did everything else. The menu was ridiculously huge. We had a turkey AND a ham.

• Last night was spa night for my daughter and me. Every Sunday is. I know I’ve mentioned it before. I did her nails, moisturized her skin, did her hair…and we were going to do facial masks, but time ran out. She had to get to bed. We got a late start. Maybe we’ll do the masks tonight instead.

• As usual, I’m using OneNote© to compose this again. Of all the Microsoft programs out there, I’m honestly thinking this is my very favorite. It’s just capable of so much and makes writing so much easier.

• For those of you who aren’t aware, I posted the the story of my past the other day. I’ve gotten a lot of positive feedback, which feels really nice. I honestly didn’t expect too much feedback. Normally when someone hears the story, they’re so taken back that they don’t know what to say. I have the best friends in the world, though, so they know exactly what to say!

• I downloaded the newest version of Yahoo! Messenger earlier today. Wow… I freakin’ LOVE it! I’ve totally been missing out by using the older version. I love this newer version! So hip and cool lookin’. Now if they could just get some decent music on LaunchCast, I’d be 100% content with it!

• We went into Whole Foods for the first time the other day. My God…the stench of that place literally gags me. It’s basically a natural and organic market. In other words, a hippie grocery store. That’d pretty much explain the stench. Wow…it was bad. The reason we went in there was to get some Black Currant Gel Caps. The stuff helps with energy levels, so that’s why we take it. Well, we had better either find a new place to buy it or Lonnie can go buy it by himself next time. I refuse to subject myself the the stench of Whole Foods ever again!

• I sent a little care package to my friends Matthew and Sarah the other day. I can’t wait ’til they get ‘em. It’s nothing big - no biggie AT ALL…I just love sending stuff to people. I’m easy to entertain.

• My Holiday Card Project has had a wonderful turn-out! I’m so thrilled!!! I haven’t bought the cards yet, though, so I have to do that TODAY. I’ve told everyone that I’m mailing the cards out on December 1st…which is today! It’s only 1:35AM on December 1st right now, but as soon as I get my daughter off to school in the morning, I’m headed to the store to buy boxes of cards. I’ve got quite a few on my list, so I will need at least two or three boxes. Yay! I’m stoked!!!

• I feel a headache brewing. I have my hair up in a pony tail. I’d be willing to bet that’s why the headache is brewing. It happens every single time. Down with the hair, I go!

• Ahhh….much better.

• Poor Lonnie. He’s been working so hard. He’s asleep sitting up in his chair right now. :heart breaks: I hate seeing him so over-worked. I’m kinda over-worked, too, but I don’t care about that. It’s seeing how badly it’s affecting him that’s really hard on me. I’m going to go cover him with a blanket at least….

• I want to make coffee SO badly, but I have my coffee maker totally disassembled and soaking in cleaning solution. It was pretty gross. I needed to clean it out badly. I have some of those instant Folgers Crystals down there in the kitchen. I hate the thought, but I just might give in and make myself some. Tea just won’t cut it in this case.

• I give in. Folgers Disgusting Crystals of Hell, here I come!…..

• Okay, I’m back with my poor excuse for coffee.

• I got slightly side-tracked while in the kitchen. I unloaded the dishwasher, reloaded the dishwasher, disinfected all the counter tops, and did a load of laundry. Yes….I’m insane.

• Speaking of being insane with the cleaning…I’ve got quite the predicament going on right now. My vacuum is broken. I know exactly what’s wrong with it and what it needs, but I cannot afford the buy the piece to fix it at this time. Soooo, I’ve gone from vacuuming at least daily to not being able to vacuum at all. It’s killing me. I’m about ready to lose it. With each day that passes, I see new little chunks of this and that on the carpet. I keep kneeling down and picking them up, but that’ll only take a person so far. There comes a time when a vacuum is needed. That time was like a week ago. I’m freakin’ out over here!!!

• I suppose I should look to see how much the vacuum piece I need actually costs. What if it’s super cheap and I could’ve had it a long time ago? DOH!

• Lonnie’s cat, Grimmy, is in heat a-freakin’-gain. Grrrrr….the incessant whining, meowing, and wanting to hump me. Between the vaccum and now this, wow. I’m seriously going to end up freakin’ out on someone!

• I want to mow the lawn one last time before I call it quits for the season. The problem is that it won’t stop raining long enough. Not only do I want the grass to look good, but I need to run the mower out of gas so it doesn’t sit there for months with gas in it. That is SO bad for mowers.

• Lonnie is addicted to Orville Redenbacker’s Kettle Corn. He’s so addicted that he even does an Orville Redenbacker impresson! Hahaha…he’d probably kill me for divulging that, but it’s just so funny. He’s been crackin’ me up like you would NOT believe lately.

• Lonnie’s also been having a bit too much fun with the megaphone lately. Oh man, he is so funny with that thing. The other day we took the kids to Safeway and had Jameson run in for something. As soon as Lonnie saw Jameson headed back to the car, he rolled the window down, aimed the megaphone at Jameson and started yelling stuff like, “Hurry up, son!” “Come on! I’ve not got all night!”….:lol: Jameson was SO embarrassed, but man….I was rooooooooooooolling. I couldn’t breathe for quite a while.

• So yeah, in case you’ve not caught on, Lonnie and I have been getting along a lot better lately. He’s been doing his best to refrain from being so flippin’ serious all the time and it’s helped immensely. I mean, he’s with a big kid…he has to stop and have fun some times, right?

• I guess I’ll bring this one to an end. I’m just so chatty I could go on and on and on…but nobody wants to read a 17 page version of Random Randomness©, so I’ll stop. I hope everyone has a wonderful week! I will be getting those holiday cards out later today! Love you guys!!!

• Today’s been a really awesome day so far! Much like yesterday, I woke up between 3-4PM! Granted, I went to bed super late, but still. This whole catching up on sleep thing has really been feeling good. I need to do it more often.

• Maybe I should get on a regular schedule like most ‘normal’ people. Like go to bed at 11PM or something and then wake up in time to get the kids off to school. I suppose it’s worth a shot.

• Lonnie is insisting on being the music DJ today, but I’m sitting here in silence. Every time I mention wanting to hear music, he’s like, “Yeah, just give me a minute.” 25 minutes later, I’m still in silence!

• I just warned Lonnie that if he doesn’t play something within one minute, I’m taking over the Djing. He said, “I will. Just a second.” The timer is ticking.

• I spoke with my Dad yesterday….his 62nd birthday. He’s doing really well. He sounds to be in great spirits although he’s dreading winter coming. He lives in Minnesota. They get hella harsh winters there. He hates it. He’s like me - a hot weather kinda person. His girlfriend, Michelle, and him have threatened to move to Laughlin, Nevada a few times, but have yet to do so. I hope they will at some point so my Dad can stop being miserable every winter.

• I’m feeling SO hungry right now. Like I could eat a horse….and I don’t even eat beef or pork!  I guess that means it’s lemon concoction time. They say when you feel hungry, that’s when you drink a lemon cocktail thing. Soooo….that’s what I’m going to go do…my fourth one today.

• I just changed into something more comfortable. A night gown kinda thing that look likes exactly like THIS with undies that look like THESE…and although it’s SO not sexy, I’m wearing socks at the moment, too. My feet are so cold. Once Lonnie’s ready to finish working, the socks are history!    

• I keep burping a lemon flavor. Sorry - I know that’s gross to hear…but even more gross to deal with.

• I’ve not been doing so well lately with some health issues (mostly my back/neck), but Lonnie has been just so terrific. It’s like he’s showing a new side of himself…the side I’ve been missing so much. He’s really attentive and helpful…and does anything he can to help me feel better. He rubbed Tiger Balm on my neck last night for over 1/2 hour. I normally just do it myself, but this time he insisted on doing it for me. I feel so babied lately. I’m not sure what’s caused the change in him, but I certainly hope it remains. I’m enjoying him so much.

• I’m starting to wonder how many boxes of Christmas cards I’m going to have to buy this year. I think it’s WONDERFUL that I have so many people to send them to. I get at least three new names/addresses every single day. I hope they keep coming…it makes me so happy to touch the lives of others. Even if it’s only through a card.

• My Mom laid a guilt trip on me earlier tonight. (she does that frequently) This time, I stood up to her! I’m very proud of myself.

• My daughter loves to sing. About two years ago, when we’d hear her sing, we’d do whatever we could to get away from the sound.      Really nice, I know…but it was horrible. She was so tone deaf. Now that she’s been in choir, it has done wonders for her. Her voice is actually quite pretty now. No more tone deafness and she can really carry a tune. I’m so proud of her. She’s come such a long way…and you’d better believe that both Lonnie and I have made it very clear how proud we are!

• I made a batch of Chocolate Chip Cookies the day before yesterday. The entire batch lasted two hours. TWO. I guess they were good…although I wouldn’t personally know!

• Does anyone else watch Dr. 90210? I love that show, but wow…Dr. Rey. That guy has seriously got to learn how to dress. He looks like a freakin’ rainbow. I understand having your own style, and that’s great. But this guy wears every color in the rainbow and then some…all at the same time. If I were his wife, I’d be so embarrassed. I mean, I’d not love him less, but I wouldn’t want to be seen with the human Reading Rainbow everywhere I went, either. Oh well…they’re on the outs, anyway. She’s such a spoiled brat…they’re headed down the road to divorce. I hate to see that with any couple, but it’s been a long time in the making for these two.

• BTW - Dr. Rey’s wife, Haley, has the perfect body in my opinion. HERE’S a picture of her…the dress isn’t the most flattering, but still. Lonnie says she’s too skinny. I say her body is perfect. I’m so jealous…which, yes, I know, is quite the sinful way to be. Can’t help it!

• I’m so worried that we won’t get to see Lonnie’s grandparents again before they pass on. They’re both VERY old….and their health issues are getting worse and worse. We visited them one time and spent the night at their house. We had such a wonderful time with them. Their house was just lovely…their garden was to die for. Their dog, LadyBug, was even delightful. The thought of not getting to see them again saddens me deeply. When we pulled away from their house after our visit, I cried and cried. I immediately grew attached to them. The problem is that they’re in such horrible shape, it’s against their wishes to have visitors. They don’t want anyone to see them like this. I understand that, but just one last hug. That’s all I want. I know they’ll look horrible…I’m prepared for it as is Lonnie. All we want is one last physical connection with them. We’re going to try to get Lonnie’s Dad to talk them into it. I pray that it works.

• When I spoke to my Dad on the phone, he was bragging about his meeting with Alice Cooper again….and also his meeting with Ted Nugent. He was so stoked. They each autographed albums for my Dad. He said they were both just super nice guys. Hehe…is’s so cool to hear my Dad going off about something like a little kid. It warms my heart.

• I think my Mom and I are going to go shopping for Thanksgiving dinner either tomorrow or the next day. Oh joy. Don’t ya’ just dread that? All those people everywhere. :sigh:

• Well, I guess I’ll stop babbling for now. I’m in an exceptionally talkative mood right now for some reason. Maybe because I know that once Lonnie sees me all decked out in sexehness, he’ll get all excited and smooch me all over! I love his affection. He’s so gentle. Have a wonderful day/night, my lovely readers! You all mean the world to me!

We decided to go to Blockbuster last night. Although we’re broke and can’t afford hardly anything at all, we remembered t hat we had a couple coupons for there and so it was the perfect answer for the question, “What is there to do?!”

While we were browsing around, I came across a Zack Efron cardboard cut-out. I handed Lonnie the camera and say, “I gotta get a picture with that thing!”     So, that’s exactly what I did…

Well, one of the employees saw the big FLASH and came running over, saying, “I want my picture taken too!!!” So, we obliged… That was a pretty hilarious moment…and afterwards, we continued our search for the movies we’d gone there looking for. Sadly, they didn’t have any copies of the ones we wanted in, so we went elsewhere…to a different Blockbuster. We ended up getting “Kung Fu Panda”, “Clone Wars”, and “Tropic Thunder”….basically nothing I’m interested in watching. While Lonnie watched his movie, I wrote a card to Tab, and another card to …uh…wow, I forget who. I write so many, it’s totally gone out of of my memory…plus I wrote a pretty lengthy letter to Sarah.     :DJust in case anyway cares, here’s a tiny bit of video which was taken in Blockbuster.

That pretty much sums it up! Not too thrilling, but at least we FINALLY did something non-work related!
