WOW

John Mayer: Say (music video from The Bucket List)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Last Friday night PD and I invited friends in for pizza, beer and The Bucket List. We enjoyed all three immensely. I’d been looking forward to watching the movie for quite awhile and it’s been all rented out at the video store. I have [...]

You know, my life is weird. It may not be much of a life, but damn, it’s interesting. I’m not exactly sure if it is my life. per se, or if it’s my perspective. Maybe it’s just that I’m so easily amused and entertained. Either way, prepare yourself for a weird [...]

I just sat down here because I’m waiting for a phone call and don’t want to start anything and then have to quit when the phone rings.
I have not one thing in my head to write about. I’m going to wing it and see what comes to me.
*looking around the room, hoping something inspires [...]

ALWAYS BE AWARE

When I first met PD, he was way into martial arts, self-defense and all that.  He always stressed to me how important it is to be aware of your surroundings at all times.  To make mental notes of exit doors, dark areas where bad people could be lurking, alternate “escape” routes, things like that.  He [...]

I’m trying to take it kind of easy this weekend, dreading gearing up for working 4 ten-hour days this week. You might not see that as a major feat yourself, but for moi, getting up at 4:30 in the morning is something akin to having major dental work or trying to get a trial [...]

≈You probably aren’t going to feel very social today, dear Pisces. In fact, you’re likely to want to work on projects and tasks alone if you can. This actually might be good for you, as you probably need to concentrate on crossing certain things off your list without being distracted. [...]

INTERESTING…

INTERESTING…

Looky what I found…
Russell Crowe singing One Good Year at the 2006 CMAA Awards. I’d heard he could sing and had a band (The Ordinary Fear of God.) I was pleasantly surprised. It’s from the movie One Good Year, which I have not seen.
Incidentally, You Tube loves me again.  This import took less [...]

NOT FUNNY, WALT

Since I am not privileged enough to run with the Big Dogs over at the Peevery, I’m going to post my own miniature version of a Peeve here.
It has come to my attention that Disney has a new cartoon called The Replacements.  If you know me well, you know that my very favorite band is [...]

QUICK TUESDAY

Hi kids.
Not a lot of time to write but that works out because I don’t really have much to say. What a coincidence!
I just took PD to the video store and while he was getting movies I watched a video that I kinda liked. The band was Luna Halo and the song was [...]

SICK OF SICK

The most constructive thing I did today was roam around my house wiping telephones, doorknobs, light switches and faucets with Clorox wipes.
Around 4pm, PD said to me, “Oh, by the way, Happy Valentine’s Day!” I instantly choked up. Add to the already runny nose and watery eyes.
I also watched Gus Van Sant’s [...]

SUNDAY WRAP

I woke up in the middle of last night with a full-blown touch body-slam of the flu. All this time I’ve been trying to gain weight? Ha ha. Gone. That’s all I have to say about that.
I laid around all day with my new best friend, the down comforter. We bonded. [...]

One Wink at a Time has not been such a fun place lately. I need to do something about that. I will. Give me a little while to come up with something. Any suggestions for a feature or something everybody might be interested in? Remember way back when, I used [...]

You guys seem to like my “varying degrees” posts. I’m thinking of doing some more of those but tonight I’m in a bit of a hurry and just wanted to write something quick.
If it’s not too late, run outside and get a look at that awesome Moon up there.
I watched this movie last night [...]

“SHAWPGIRL”

If you know me at all, you know that, yeah, I’m here physically but I’m living my life in a big ol’ fantasy world in my head.  It’s in that place that I’m creative and beautiful and young and fulfilled and living out the kind of life that Earth and 2007 deny me.  There are [...]

STOPPIT !!!

Of all the trials and tribulations of navigating the Internet I’ve experienced, this new thing has to be one of the most annoying. There is a tv station or something coming through on my speakers. This has been happening intermittently for a little over a week. It’s not all the time but [...]

PD and I went to the flea market at the park today instead of tomorrow. I thought it might be nice to just have an at-home day before going back to work.
I did pretty good as far as not buying too much stuff I don’t need. I think I took about $70 with me [...]

Your Score: Katharine Hepburn
You scored 16% grit, 28% wit, 38% flair, and 28% class!

You are the fabulously quirky and independent woman of character. You go your own way, follow your own drummer, take your own lead. You stand head and shoulders next to your partner, but you are perfectly willing and able to stand alone. [...]

I must spend some time here praising the movie In Pursuit of Happyness.  Quite frankly, I thought I’d rented a different movie (the title escapes me now but it stars Adam Sandler…).  You’ll have to excuse my lack of expertise in the field of movie reviewing.  I seldom pay attention to the “professionals”.  Most times [...]
