• I just created the graphics I’m using in my Random Randomness© today. I totally dig ‘em…if I may say so myself…and I may since it’s my blog. :p

• I’m in a freakishly good mood today. Normally I’d be happy about it, but wow…what the heck? I haven’t been this cheerful in quite some time.  Don’t get me wrong - I’m not complaining…just trying to understand.

• I added a couple items to my sidebar last night. The first one is a Twitter widget.  It displays my most recent Tweets. The other item is a translation widget. It’ll translate my blog into several different languages. I have no idea how well it works since I only speak English, but I thought it’d be a good idea to offer that option for those of you whose first language is something other than English. I did my best, anyway. If it doesn’t work well, I apologize.   ;)

• I’m really happy that I didn’t decide to do away with this blog. I’ve been enjoying it quite a bit lately. It just needed to be updated and whatnot. I’ve been spending more and more time over here and less time on My Opera …although I still spend an unreal amount of time over there.  :lol:

• My daughter has been drawing a lot lately. She’s always enjoyed drawing, but lately I’ve really noticed that her skills are improving drastically. She drew pictures of our two cats…they were very impressive. She’s only ten years old, but I would say that her drawing skills are about the same as someone who is around 15 or 16.

• Lonnie bought me some pink legal pads the other day. I was touched that he thought of me while he was at Office Depot.  He also got me some pink Post-It Notes that have a big ‘K’ on them.   8o  I was so excited when I saw them! I’ve been doing my best to use them sparingly so I won’t run out of them anytime soon.

• If you’d like me to link you on my sidebar, please let me know and I’ll do so. I have a few of my friends’ links over there already, but I am always up for putting more junk over there.  :D

• I like these smilies way more than the default ones…although they’re still not perfect. I might end up making my own and using them instead.   :roll:   I’m super picky.  (EDIT: I just published this entry and noticed that lots of my smilies aren’t working. I’ll fix it as soon as I figure out why the heck it’s doing that.)

• We haven’t done any back-to-school shopping yet.  All four of us dread doing it…it means that school is right around the corner and none of us want that.  Well, maybe that’s not totally true. I don’t think Lonnie shares my dread for the kids going back to school.  He pretty much looks forward to it like most “normal” parents do.

• I’m listening to “Doggy Style” by Snoop right now.   :lol:  I’m not exactly a fan of Rap, so this is a rare occasion.  There are very few Rap songs I can tolerate…but I oddly like this entire album.  I guess Snoop’s the exception to the rule for me.  Freaky, I know.

• I’ve only had two cups of coffee so far today. I’m kinda trying to take it easy.

• I just cranked my sub-woofer up.

• I’ve got some chicken thawed out for dinner tonight. I’m not sure what to do with it yet.  Maybe chicken tacos or something.

• My Wakoopa thing isn’t accurate. I’ve been using Photoshop like crazy lately, but it says that only 9% of my computer use is on Photoshop? BUNK!  :(  Not true! I’ve also been using CuteFTP Pro a whole lot as well…but its’ not even showing on my little pie chart thing!  I’m irritated….but still happy at the same time.  :shock:  I’m just a loon.

• I wonder how many times the ‘F Bomb’ is dropped on this album? :lol:  I should start it over from the beginning and count each time that word is used….but even I have better things to do than that. (believe it or not)

• Lonnie’s feeling better lately. His gums are finally healing after having that dental catastrophe happen.  :(  My poor Baby.  I hated seeing him go through so much pain and suffering.  It was so bad that I wanted to put a hit out on his dentist….but then I remembered that God will take care of the revenge side of things, so I concentrated all of my energy on spoiling my man.  8)

•  :lol:  I think I’m enjoying these new smilies a bit too much. I’ve used like 23948732 of them so far!  :o

•  I guess I’ll bring this edition of Random Randomness© to an end. I could seriously continue to babble on and on for hours, but I will spare you, my badass readers!  I hope you have a really good day…if you have any awesome chicken recipes, please send ‘em my way! I need a change. It’s boneless chicken, BTW.  ;)

those graphics are pretty cool, especially the last one that has “Karen’s Chronicles”. :P … Good thing Lonnie is feeling better, getting work done on your teeth is always painfull…. Okay good chicken recipes, well what i like to cook is lemone chicken on a salad, and chicken burgers. Basically the lemone chicken, is pretty easy i have zippe up bac, but the chicken in their with lemone, lemone seasoning and some garlic seasoning. The chicken burger basically chicken with some lemon sesoning and a tiny bit of salt. I usually use the gridle instead of frying it.

Thanks for the chicken ideas, Jose! :D Sadly, I got to your comment a little late, so I already made something out of it. Maybe next time I’ll do Lemon Chicken. I’ve done it before, but it’s been a while. :)

First of all cool god damn graphics and like Jose said, especially the last one that has “Karen’s Chronicles” you should do more of them :)

And about sunny,let her draw from pictures too as well as life draw :) if her life draw is good ,then her Picture draw should be super :up: Note: “life draw is harder as you know” :D

Thanks, Amir! :)

Sunny actually does draw from pictures, too. She only recently started drawing real life things. Thank you for the advice, though!

I’m glad you like the graphics…I’m pumpin’ then out like crazy…just not posting most of them. ;)
