uh oh

This made me both LOL and puke...

They say Disney World is the "happiest place on earth" obviously they have never been in your arms :) ♥

ordered a sofa online....

had a good experience with getting a bed a few years ago, so, I'm trying this thing. interesting bit is they will send me a swatch and I have to give approval before they will complete the order.

Anyhoo, finished What the Dog Saw and started The Help.

Finished Jimbo

which was kinda good even though it was a bit predictable. Started The Messianic Legacy which so far, is not so convincing as Holy Blood, Holy Grail. They're relying too much on "this has been mistranslated" probably. and no mysteriously appearing sources at the library.

Also, totally unrelated, I bought some more Thorlos today so I'll have some every day instead of one day a week. Hopefully that will help my scary looking feet.

Park was still mostly under water today so we took the rain route, as I like to call it. It's not as far as walking the park, but it will do.

UPDATE: added The Red Menace to the pile.

it's official...

I've lost 16 lbs since this time last year. I was gonna be happy with weighing in at 140 but I was 138. w007! W007!

Saturday!

Happy Thanksgiving!

it only took a month

but SUPER LUCKY CAT IS HERE!!!!

I was told we'd be trick or treating....

but instead I wound up as goth kitty at a Party of the Saints.

RTO's nephew's were St. Patrick and St. Michael, his niece was St. Mary. anyhoo, we ran the Knock out the Sins game (bowling, pins each had a sin written on it)

super breaking!

Super Lucky Cat has checked in in Dallas!!!

breaking!!!

Super Lucky Cat has arrived on the continent!

vague toy memories...

been trolling ebay quite a bit lately when I came across this. I remember having a Sea Wee with baby, I think. I was thinking it was blue, but lookin at this site nothing jogged my memory. anyhoo, had completely forgotten about that.

so I'm staying busy lately

with rehearsals for Hello, Dolly! It seems like a bit more than I'm used to learning.

we're gonna need a bigger ipod...

I hit 100 GB tonight, about 40gbs to go and I still have a lot of records.

greaaaaaaat

MIL gave me Chicken Soup for the Cat Lover's Soul ages ago. Anyhoo, I've only read one story and I can tell this book is going to make me cry. a lot.

qotd

from Greg Gutfeld on The 5.

"The government is not your mom or dad. The government is your mistress, you call her when you want and she NEVER COMES TO YOUR HOUSE"

heh.

no clips

I just watched the Met HD broadcast of Fanciulla del West and it was awesome, but I can't find any of it on youtube. which makes me sad. I should figure out how to rip things off the DVR.

anyhoo, it's the first opera I ever saw and still a favorite and I bawled at the end of it. RTO hates it cause the bad guy gets away, but he has no sense of romance or something.

still something to keep your eyes peeled for. there were some technical issues with the sound, but the acting helped overcome that.

sound of music picture...

he didn't take any close ups of me on stage. :( I guess the Mother Abbess was more important. ;P

mmmmm,Thadd McCotter...

much as I love him, I don't see him as President material. For one thing he's been on Red Eye a few too many times(at all) ;D

currently stumbled/watching him play on Huckabee with the little Rockers. too much awesomeness to be pres.

I know I've said this before somewhere, hopefully I'm not just reposting the same thing every few months.

in case you missed it...

I lost my "main" job this week. probably because I called in sick too much, which, I'm in the process of adjusting my medication again.

In the mean time, I might as well not have a fence because the dogs are getting out every day. Today,the person that found and corralled them said they were running around with a third dog. great, they're forming a gang.
