A Barrel of Daisy-Pushing Fun

I think I’m in love, y’all (ooh — how Britney was that?).
Seriously, did anybody else watch the premiere of Pushing Daisies? My local newspaper called it weird; for me, it was the perfect amount of weirdness. Like a combination of Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy and Wonderfalls with a bit of paranormal oddity […]

Satan’s Camaro is Stalking Me!

Hey all!
Sorry — no Saturday shot this week. I just didn’t have time to work one up. The good news is I’m continuing to make progress with my edits, so my time hasn’t been a complete waste.
I did get to see Transformers tonight — SoundGuy and I took the kids. […]

One Kid Two Kid Red Lens Blue Lens

You know what’s more fun than a barrel of monkeys? Making your late-sleeping offspring get up early on a summer morning.
ME: MiniMe! LittleDude! Rise and shine! It’s a beautiful morning!
THEM: *grumble grumble grouse grouse*
ME: (yanking the covers from their beds) C’mon! Get up! We’ve got […]

The Wrong Hero

Yesterday, I finally got around to watching last week’s episode of TNT’s Heartland starring Treat Williams. Anyone else watching this show? I’m still unsure about it — I’ve seen three episodes and I’m not entirely sure if I’ll keep watching.
Especially after last week’s episode.
I hate shows that kill kids. Babies in particular. […]

He Steals from the Rich

I’ve got a new guilty pleasure. Somebody I look forward to seeing every week. But, come on — how can I not?

Wrong Kind of Housewife

I’ve been fighting it. Struggling against it. Determined to resist.
I finally gave in. Allowed myself to be pulled to the darkside.

I’ve Seen Glaciers Move Faster

Last night, SoundGuy and I watched the movie Invincible, based on the story of Philidelphia Eagles’ Vince Papale. If you haven’t seen it yet, make sure you do. Even if you’re not into football flicks. The story’s heartwarming, the acting’s great, and the soundtrack’s outstanding.
Seriously — it’s a Disney movie that opens […]

Queen of Obscure Television Shows

Good mail day yesterday — my DVD set of the first and only season of Wonderfalls arrived. I loved that show. I’ve been watching since it arrived, and now I’m watching the commentaries.
I told SoundGuy I’d like to become the Queen of Obscure Television Shows. Between Wonderfalls and Freaks and Geeks, I […]

All I Need is a Mermaid Name

It’s a dreary, wet Wednesday here in Georgia. Despite the rain, the day actually started out okay. Got the kids off to school — if you’re ever short on entertainment, try watching your daughter racing down the driveway in the rain to catch the school bus, trying to hold bubble wrap over her […]

The Pinnacle of Geekdom

Before we get started, yesterday’s Messed Up Tune was “Strawberry Wine” by Deana Carter.

Mornings are usually my time to watch whatever my upstairs TiVo has recorded for me. I sit on the bed, put on my makeup, straighten my hair, and watch television. Oftentimes, SoundGuy watches with me. But for the past […]

Say it Ain’t So!

I originally had a different post in mind for today, but that’s all changed. Maybe that post’ll show up tomorrow.
What the hell…is this my bad news week? I woke up this morning and saw an article in my local paper that made me choke. And I had to come down and get […]

Chevron 7, Also Lit Up

Any fellow Stargate SG-1 fans out there who caught this past Friday’s 200th episode and special? I finally watched my TiVo’d version last night and I laughed my butt off. SG-1 as puppets? Brilliant! Today’s post title came from that episode.
After watching a second time, I was also inspired to re-watch […]

Thursday Potpourri Post

Just in for a quickie today (why does that always sound so dirty?)…
The last day of school is tomorrow, and LittleDude actually had to stay home sick today. I’m having to wear my Mommy Hat today and take care of him. Poor kid. He’s missing his end-of-the-year party.
Since LittleDude is […]

The Year of the Chris

Hmm. Methinks the cosmos might be whispering to me again. Elbowing me in the side and speaking sternly. Cupping its hands around its mouth and hollering. Maybe even beating me over the head with the proverbial stick. The Wake Up, You Dingbat! one — not the Ugly one.

I Wanna Be Like Taylor

Didn’t get much of anything done on my own writing last night, but I did get some tweaks done to my friend’s website, and I got some good critting in. As far as the day went, I’m pleased.
I’m hoping to do some more critting today — maybe even finish. That’d be […]
