Random Thoughts and Other Weird Stuff In My Head.

It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood! Having company means that you eat, and eating means that you gain weight, which is exactily what I did. I have however, started "Barry's Boot Camp". I just finished and I'm sweatin like a sinner in church! This better work. I hate sweat.

Do you ever just have weird thoughts in your head? The kinda thoughts where you are looking off into the distance with vacant eyes, staring, until someone says something to you and you snap out of the long winding space cruise you were just on. Ya know know the kind where you are almost drooling. Well, I'm not talking about those, just random thoughts. Not like math or anything.

Here are some of mine.

Is it just me, or are those guys from "Deadliest Catch" kinda cute?

What purpose do cockroaches serve? I mean why are they in the eco system plan? Do they really have purpose, other than being discusting?

Why does the hair on your under arms and legs grow a quarter of an inch over night, and the hair on your head takes months to grow the same amount?

Is it to watch "Bridget Jones' Diary" every day? And who is the better kisser, Hugh Grant or Colin Firth? That lucky Renee!

Does it hurt for a chicken to lay an egg? Cuz it sure looks like it does! Are we mean for making the chickens produce so many if it does?

Why are babies so cute that you would want to take a bite out of them? Really! I just want to eat them up!

If I had to choose one channel to watch for the rest of my life, which one would I pick?

Do other love to play "Desert Island" as much as I do?

Why do I love horror movies so dang much?

What is my fasination with serial killers? And everything Egyptian.

I need more Botox. Can you get addicted to Botox? Do I care?

I hope others of you have some unusual thinkings in your noggins. I'd hate for you all to read this and think I'm some kinda whack job. I often wonder what Stephen King thinks of as he's drifting off to sleep. It could be something totally normal like, "Deep dish really is better than thin crust!" I hope it's something dark and crazy. I may never know. I think I'll think on that for awhile.

Dang Summer!

Do you remember when summers were for relaxing? No pressure, just hanging out with your friends by the pool, meeting cute boys from other towns, walking to the local drive in to get cherry-vanilla cokes, dragging main, working on your tan down at the lake. Ahh......the good ole days. Now summers are as action packed as an Arnold Schwarzenegger movie! I can't believe how much of the summer is gone already and I haven't even gone to the lake, not once! And, I don't even know what I've been doing. It's just that time has slipped away. And then I'll be 60, and I'll wonder why I drink so much and where did all the cats come from.

I've been sticking to my diet.....mostly. My weight as of Monday, 122.6. I did get down to 122.4, but nothin to write home about. I'm sorry I haven't been as diligent at my blog as I should have been. I'm intending to be better. Really. I swear, I looked up and it was Thursday.

My mother in law is coming to stay with us for a month. Does that help explain? I sure hope so. I'm sitting on the floor writing and waiting for the carpet cleaners to show up. Four dogs in the house sure takes it's toll on the rugs. I've been cleaning like crazy! Not that my mother in law would even care, she's awesome! But, I wouldn't want her to think that her oldest child would marry a slob. I want her to think, "Wow! My son married an amazing house-keeper and I'm so lucky to have her as my daughter-in-law!" You know, just a lil supthin like that. Basically, I don't have any skills so I'm gonna have to impress her with cleanliness.

I've also been catching up on my Netflix. I've had 3 movies for like 2 months that I have needed to watch. I highly recommend "Lars and the Real Girl". It was darling!! Love that Ryan Gosling! He can do no wrong.

Carpet guys are here now. Gotta go. TTFN!! Really! Did you notice how I got stuck on italic? Fixed it all by myself.

Bonding with the Angry Youth




Hello Peanuts! Yes, I know it's been quite some time. I did take my picture as promised. Good news! I swear, if I try, I gain. If I don't I lose. Go figure. I'm thinking now that I'm old, it's gonna take more than diet. I'm thinking about buying Barry's Boot Camp. I saw it on a infomercial. The exercises only last in 60 second intervals, and since that is about all he patience I have for any one exercise, it could work. Discuss and get back with me.
The reason I've taken so long to get back with ya'll, is because..............well, I just didn't feel like it. Not cuz I don't care, I just found other things to occupy my time. I spent last weekend with my crazy, delightful family! Even got my man-babies together for a picture with myself and Mr. Horsepower. It may be our future Christmas card, so watch for it this winter. Then, my youngest man-baby came down for a visit, I don't get to see him much since he is an "angry youth", so I spend as much time with him as he will give me! We've been watching the new "Day of the Dead" movies and episodes of "Firefly"! There is nothing so wonderful as bonding with your child over flesh eating zombies and the Sci-fi channel! It's like magic!
So sorry Peanuts, but babies don't keep! I once read this poem about a woman that needed to clean her house, but she didn't cuz she was holding her baby. I just remember the last line, "dust settle down and cobwebs go to sleep, I'm holding my baby and babies don't keep." I cry every time I think of it, because it is so true! Then I think of Abe Hunin and screamin hooligans at the store, and I am glad that I have any Angry Youth that loves cheesy horror movies.

Do you think he'd be willing to sit in my lap and watch them?
