This new headline is something that is not about poop.

About Me

waiting for something to happen which makes my (usually exciting) life even better. Not sure why I am drifting into this "blah" feeling, or what I can do to get out of it.

This layout was handmade with love by the folks at My space or yours? Go get one!

My Interests

I like to eat, drink and be merry. I read a lot.
I am also a knitter/crafter/sew-er (not sewer like where the sewage goes). Sometime fiddle player, roller derby member, ballroom dance fan, collect records & cds, etc.

I'd like to meet:

a good looking guy aged 26-40 who wants to buy me a drink and then leave me alone... less assholes than usual.
Hendrick Zetterberg.
Hugh Laurie.
Horatio Hornblower.
myself at 27.

Music:

Every rose has its thorn.

Movies:

Godzilla 2000, The Night of the Demons.

Television:

Little Britain. Hell's Kitchen! Kitchen Nightmares! Gordon Ramsey rules... And I could watch Sopranos until my eyes bleed. Benny Hill on DVD.

Books:

Dickens, Austen, Frasier, Forrester, Eliot. I also read a lot of garbage, like Agatha Christie, do sudoku, crosswords, etc.

Heroes:

Temple Grandin, Evel Knevel, Pope John Paul II, Fred Rogers.

random dumb again

I am sick of politics... I am sick of hearing candidate's views on every thing that happens in the news.... I am sick of "leapfrog" watching. It's more pointless than predicting who will be in the Sup...

It’s not the years in your life that count, it’s the life in your years.

oh, it’s hard

I forgot how hard it is to come back after a vacation. I was riding back from Shelby yesterday in the car, then I came to work for a few hours. Meh. Luckily I did not keep wearing the running shorts a...

Im addicted

once again I am addicted to the Sopranos. We just started watching season 6 (from netflix) and yesterday I was thinking about Tony and hoping that he's OK.  I know he's not a real person, but I w...

once more into the breech

I found a new friend to play Irish music with. He has to lie to his wife about the fact that it's a "girl" he's playing with, but oh well.  Maybe some more people will join us, so he won't feel i...

hooray July!

Holy cow! Is the year already half over? Anyhoo, things are going swimmingly at the new house. Well, sorta.  I should feel all relieved and accomplished and so on, but instead I get frustrated a...

oh so tired *pics*

Today was the last day I will be in the old house most likely. I think I was in denial about moving for a while, and didn't really want to do it. Now that I have been cleaning up this week at the old ...

OK, the closings (for the house we're selling and the house we're buying) are tomorrow. so it has started. I'm nauseous, broken out in hives (inner arms, where it always is) and have dizzy spells. All...
