• Nobody will EVER be able to hear the song “Everybody’s Workin’ For The Weekend” by Loverboy again without seeing Chris Farley doing his Chip n’ Dales thing.     He single handedly ruined that one for Loverboy…although I’d much prefer to picture good ol’ Farley than the dudes from Loverboy.

• Lonnie’s pulling an all-nighter tonight, so I’m going to do my best to stay up, too. I feel too guilty sleeping while he’s working all night. He doesn’t expect me to stay up - its’ just how I am.

• I’m sucking down coffee like it’s going out of style. Hopefully I’ll help.

• I love my new desktop. I LOVED my last one, so I was sad to see it go, but now that I’m doing this whole Desktop Thursday thing, I have to change it weekly. I normally would, anyway….unless I have one I really adore like last week’s. That’s okay. It’ll make the rounds again sometime in the future.

• I’m using OneNote to compose this again.  :swoon:

• I keep applying clear coat to my French tips. I’m afraid all the clicking on my keyboard will wear the white down. So I apply like two coats of clear coat per day. Better safe than sorry…although I only paid $3.57 for them at Sally Beauty Supply AKA my new home away from home.

• I love you, Sarah! xoxox

• Just had to say that. She’s not been online too much lately and I miss her lots. For those of you who don’t already know, we have declared that we’re each other’s wives. Yes, that’s right. We’re cyber married. If it’s good enough for these prepubescent little twits on MySpace, it’s good enough for us.    :P

• Yes, Lonnie is aware of the marriage to Sarah. He just rolls his eyes at it.    :lol:    Let him laugh…whatever. GOSH!

• The “toys” they give you in Cracker Jacks anymore are freakin’ pathetic. I demand a REAL toy!!!

• We bought 60 lemons, a jar of Cayenne Pepper, and a jar of 100% pure Maple syrup last night. We’re going to start the Master Cleanse Diet the day after tomorrow. I cannot wait! I’m SO excited!!! It’s FINALLY happening!!! I’m going to keep a log on how I feel and everything. Just thinking about it is making me feel sooooooooo flippin’ excited!

• My daughter is already buggin’ me to decorate for Christmas. We decorate on the weekend after Thanksgiving….alaways have. I told her that, but she thinks we need to change tradition. I explained to her that if we change traditions, the house might spontaneously combust, so we’ve gotta stay on schedule. She looked at me and said, “Gimme a flippin’ break, Mom. I’m 10, not retarded!”      Where the heck does she get that mouth?!?!

• My tailbone’s bothering me. I have arthritis in it from about 5 years ago when I fell down the stairs and broke it. It acts up once in a while. I guess these are one of these times. I need to go ask Lonnie to kiss my ass. Hehe

• Holy balls of crap! Now Lonnie’s playing Flock of Seagulls - “I Ran”. If he keeps it up, I’m going to be the one running…down the street in my t-shirt whilst screaming, “SAVE ME!!!”

• I’m so stoked that Lonnie’s been using his My.Opera account lately. I hope he’ll actually stick with it. I am certainly not holding my breath.

• BTW - If you would like a Christmas/holiday card from me, let me know and I will get your addy from you and mail you one. I want to break a personal record this year of how many I sent. I normally send quite the fist full, but I REALLY want to spread the cheer this year!!! So, seriously…..if you would like to be added to the list, just say the word, I’ll give you my email address where you can send me your mailing address and I will send a card! I promise to keep your address secret. I’m not the type to go blabbin’ that type of info. I respect people’s privacy just as though it is my own. Scout’s honor!

• Oh my. Now it’s “Karma Chameleon” - Culture Club. I’m not ashamed (although I should be) to admit that I actually like this song! Hahahaa

• Holy crapola! Sir-Mix-A-Lot?!?!?!!?! “Buttermilk Biscuits”!!! Hells yeah! Hahhahaaha…I love this song!

• Okay, time to wrap this mo-fracky up. Thank you so much to all of you who read my blog so religiously. I can’t tell you how excited I get when I get on my computer in the morning, open my Outlook, and see that I’ve got new comments on here. I immediately get all giddy and then race over here to see what was said. The fact that anyone wants to read what I have to say boggles my mind…and the fact that you keep coming back is truly touching. Thank you from the bottom of my heart! I love you guys!!!

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.

Today’s Random Person of The Day

was found working at the

Customer Service counter at a local Fred Meyer.

• I just finished mowing the lawn. I mowed the front yard, the back yard, my neighbor’s front yard, and my neighbor’s side yard. When my OCD kicks in, you’d better look out. I’ll mow right over ya’!  

• I’m going to be seeing another new doctor tomorrow. I’m hoping this one will be good. The last one I went to was alright, but clearly seemed overwhelmed by the amount of issues I’ve got going on. I need someone who is strong and able to take the issues on and beat them into submission!

• I cannot get that freakin’ “Chocolate Rain” song out of my head. It’s not the original, thank God. It’s the Chad Vader version. I loves me some Chad Vader. His videos are SO funny.

• My Mom already lost her job. :sigh: The people sent her home today…telling her it wasn’t a “good fit”…whatever the heck that means. Here she goes again, though. The job hunt continues.  

• Do I even need to bother saying that I have nothing planned for dinner? It’s a given at this point, isn’t it? I never plan this stuff out.

• I’m wearing a pair of Lonnie’s boxer shorts (blue) with a v-neck undershirt of his. I look so feminine and dainty right now.       I was hot, so I grabbed whatever was close to put on!

• I surprised Lonnie with a bagel a little while ago. I toasted it and put cream cheese on half and butter & strawberry jam on the other half. I thought it’d be a nice gesture. Well, when I brought it to him, I got a, “Oh, thanks”…and that was about it. I said, “Hmm…I thought it was pretty nice of me to do that for you.” He said that it was and that he appreciated it. Once again - actions speaking louder than words.

• Smoked Almonds are the shiznit.

• My son’s Math teacher called a little while ago. He has a big, fat F in Math. Wonderful. Here we go again.

• I still have yet to hook my webcam up.

• I’ve got a hilarious Photoshop idea going on in my head. I need to pump that sucker out soon…Casey knows what it is. I’m sure she’s anxious to see it, too!    

• I gotta turn some music on before this whole Chocolate Rain thing drills a hole right through my frontal lobe.

• Okay, Danzig it is.

• We watched a movie last night. I can’t even remember which one it was. That pretty much says how much I enjoyed it, huh?

• Meh…Danzig is not hitting the spot. Time to look for something else…

• Skinless it is.

• Lonnie probably wants to smack me for paying some real music. I can’t help it. A person can only listen to that other jive for so long ’til they just NEED a fix of the stuff that makes ‘em truly happy.

• It pisses me off that I can’t bake my kid treates to bring to school on her birthday. They have to be prepackaged bullshit treats. Not cool. As if I’m going to poison my child’s classmates? I mean, come on! Isn’t that taking it a bit far? I want to make the most adorable cupcakes ever, but they won’t let me.    

• I am completely addicted to Plackers. I use those things at least twice per day. They make flossing SO much easier! I have ‘em in my purse, in my car, in my bathroom…everywhere I might end up needing them! They’re really thrifty, too! Totally worth each cent.

• GAH! I’m not enjoying this music, either! I’m so indecisive today. Gotta go look for something better….

• Okay, now I’m going with Devildriver. Most certainly not my favorite band on the planet, but darn it. I just cannot make up my mind!

• There’s a basket of clean clothes sitting on my bed waiting to be hung up. That is SO not like me! I can’t believe they’re just sitting there. I’m not even going nuts wanting to hang them up, either. I wonder if that new medication is starting to actually work. I kinda hope not. I mean, if it makes me lazy, who the heck needs that?!

• I feel like baking something. Cupcakes, a pie, maybe even some candy. Not sure. Just something. I’ll have to look through my cookbooks and my online sources.

• Alrighty…I guess I’m done babbling about absolutely nothing. Thanks for hanging in there with me. If not for you, my readers, I’d have a sucky life! You guys keep me going…especially those of you who comment. I love you guys!
