Tornado day, sun shine day, winter weather advisory what?...

at 03/04/12 3:10PM
My sinuses need a vacation.

Also, the part of me that overthinks things, and dwells on stuff,
And wakes me up in the morning into immediate serious thought,
After already inserting its ugly stories into my pontentially peaceful dreams,...
Yeah, that part can go on vacation too. Extended.
I tried firing that part of me,
But it just hangs around, loitering even though i'm not paying it.

And i need to wear my glasses. I have run into more things lately...

But, inspite of all these things,
I'm about to go to chuck.e.cheese and
CLEAN UP in a skee ball tournament!
(yes, with adults.)

    skee ball is such a powerful drug for the dulldrums. Good thing I wasn't there, I would have left you in tears after I destroyed you with my mad underarm rolling skills.

    you.would.have.lost.
    big time.

    I'm not sure what part of this post I like the best.....your part or her challenging or the fact that you posted.....well ince the part of me that goes into immediate serious thought in the morning is in fact on vacation....I'll refrain from making a final decision. :)

    You need to get some awesome big fat black Lisa Loeb glasses with pink sparkles on the sides like me. Then you will never want to take them off and you'll stop running into things! Problem solved!

    Just got the Spring Garden issue of my Better Homes and Garden yesterday. What a treat it is to receive. Thank you so much for your thoughtful gift.

Hello pleo fam!
Its been a while, eh?

It's fall again,
And that makes me happy.
I'm looking for a little inspiration, so...

    Mums and asters. Plenty of pumpkins and gourds and the occasional hay bale.

  • whipsmile
    Holidays means routine changes every year. For you, that is almost unbearable.

    Holiday craziness has hit here for sure!

    I have thought of you so often recently. I have been making some cool bright vintage stuff and I found a totally awesome green courduroy jacket with crazy stuff embroidered all over it at the thrift store the other day. I keep asking myself who else in this world would appreciate this stuff as much as I do.... and you keep popping into my head :)

    and I can't get Alex to watch a musical ever. period.
    It is one of the saddest things about our relationship. He won't watch them with me. And you know how much I love them.

fantasy football...

at 09/28/10 6:43AM
why did i let the guys at work convince me to play fantasy again this year?
good question.
well, it was, until now...
i am 3 AND 0!

thats right. 3-0.
how have i done this?
well, i built my team on niceness and goodworks.
i ONLY chose players who have started charitable non profit foundations,
or have publicly proven themselves to be humanitarians.

was i mocked? why yes...
did they say i was crazy? of course...

but this crazy girl is UNDEFEATED!
i wish my karma plan worked in real life.
  • tommyswife
    I love it! Yes, if niceness made people successful....this would be a very different and fun world.
