Decisions and plans!

July 22, 2008

So it’s about time for a new pedicure. I was wondering what ya’ll thought about designs vs plain, red vs french? If you know what I’m talking about please let me know.

Tell me what color and design to put on my toes. I know, who cares right?

Just thought I’d ask. Hope your summer is going ok.

I’m getting ready for a trip to New Orleans and am just dreading it now. Sounded good at the time.

Ciao, ox

New Pet Peeves

July 15, 2008

1. Pronunciation of the word “chipotle,” the Tex-Mex chili spice that I’m not fond of anyway.  It’s supposed to be Chi-POTE-lay. Not Chi-POLL-tay. Look at the spelling! 

2. The prizes in boxes of Cracker Jack SUCK compared to the old days. And I can’t believe Gomez doesn’t like the peanuts…the best part of Cracker Jack!

What’s America coming to ??!?

I like Who…do you know Who?

I’ll be the first to admit that when I get ‘into’ something, I really get ‘into’ it…like my favorite bands…now, that doesn’t mean that I’m going to be stalking any rock stars anytime soon, but as an example…I can tell you pretty much anything you’d want to know about any song in the Beatles catalog (who wrote it, how such and such on the song was recorded, where the idea came from)….you get the point.

One of the things that I’ve loved since I was in the 5th grade is the British sci fi show ‘Doctor Who’.  Like many in the USA, I discovered it when my local PBS affiliate picked it up…suddenly, I was drawn into the world of this guy with a floppy hat, a ton of curly hair, and a LLLLOOOONNNGGGG scarf who was funny, snarky, smarter than you and anyone else in the room, and had this incredible passion to make things just and right, even if that wasn’t the ‘prettiest’ solution to a problem…

Now, after gracing the British airwaves from 1963 to 1989, the series is enjoying a revival with new episodes…with a 4th season of new stuff about to conclude across the pond (SciFi channel’s about 3 weeks behind the BBC’s airing of the show, so we’re about 4 episodes away from the end of the season).

You can be a ‘Trekkie’ or a ‘Star Wars’ fan if you like…I’ll take the guy who travels time and space in a blue box that’s bigger on the inside than the outside.

Talking Dogs?

July 2, 2008

You nay have heard the talking dog on the show this week. You can find a link to you tube on our page. Once you get there, look at all the other talking, screaming and freaking out pets. Very funny yet disturbing!

On another note, always be nice to your pets! Have them Spay or Neutered and never leave a pet of any kind in a car when it’s hot outside!!! They will die! A car can become deadly in just a few short minutes!!!!!!
