Monday, bleh

Allergies are kicking my booty today. I did discover that Tylenol Sinus Severe medicine is the greatest thing ever. Love the stuff.

I went to register today as a Volunteer Deputy Registrar. I can register people to vote. Yes, there is a reason I went to do this! I am volunteering this weekend at a Voter Registration Drive. I am very excited - it is one way to help get out the vote (for whomever you chose to vote for!!). The deadline to register to vote for the Nov. 4 election is October 6. So, if you haven't done so, go and register. If you need any info, just let me know. I have a list of the registration offices for other counties (I can only register people who live in Dallas County). This website is very helpful for those registered in Dallas County: http://www.dalcoelections.org/. So, no matter the candidate of your choice, you must get registered and more importantly, you must actually go vote! (I was given all sorts of information - early polling locations, etc - so if you have any questions, please ask!!) And I will definitely let you know how the voter registration drive goes this weekend. It is a non-partisan event, which is actually a good thing.

"The Office" is back on the Thursday!!! I can't stand how excited I am :). Don't try to call 8-9 pm on Thursday. You know I won't answer! And "Grey's Anatomy" comes back too. I can't wait to see what happens with Meredith and Derek. I never thought I'd care about them, but I really do :).

Have a great evening! (I got my sewing machine yesterday so time to get started on a project! Halloween is coming up, so we will see what I can make for that.)

Happy Birthday Mom

Happy Birthday Mom! Have a great day :)>.

The Weekend is Over. Bleh.

I saw Mama Mia today at the Bass Hall in Fort Worth today. It was still awesome. Loved it!!! And the cast was great. I will be singing "Dancing Queen" at least until Wednesday :). Thanks for taking me Mom!

I found this kitty video over on Cuteoverload. It is good for a laugh or two. Enjoy.

Everyone have a great Sunday night!!!

Note to Channel 5

Um, the storm isn't that bad in the DFW area. You don't need to keep doing weather coverage at the expense of showing "Chuck". Thank you, that is all. I am sure there was nothing on before to delay the news coverage. They are just doing overkill.

On the brighter note, it is so nice outside. Love the wind and rain and happy coolness it brought :).

Good night.

Friday night chill out

Don't worry, I did go out tonight. I just got back pretty early. I am sitting here at 11:30 watching CNN and the Hurricane coverage. I don't know why, but Ike is scaring the bejeebies out of me!!! This hurricane just seems like it is getting bigger and bigger. I mean, we are even supposed to feel the winds and rain in Dallas tomorrow. That is a big ass storm. I don't even remember following Katrina this closely. Maybe because of Katrina I am more intrigued, I don't know. I just know I am following it a lot more. I just pray that the damage and devastation they predict coming, doesn't. But this darn storm looks like an angry Pacman wanting to eat up Texas and LA. Good luck and God keep safe the folks on the Texas Coast!!! We have an office in Corpus and two in Houston so I hope those employees got out or at least hunkered down well. I guess we will find out next week.

Sarah Palin. Geesh. I still don't think this woman is qualified to be VP. I think I am more qualified to be VP. I really think she is fascinating and I would love to meet her. She would be fun to debate and just talk to over a drink in a bar. But the lady does not need to be a heart beat away from the presidency. And I seem to meet people who love her. Man, I don't like arguing (well, not twice in one day, which I did today :)). But, the idea that Tina Fey will play her on SNL just makes me giddy. Tina Fey is one truly talented woman and I love everything she does. That will be awesome.

Okay, back to CNN and the Weather Channel. Really nothing interesting happened this week. It was long and I am glad its Friday. I am looking forward to a relaxing weekend. I get to go see "Mama Mia" on the stage again with my mom on Sunday! Can't wait. It will be fun.

Weekend Wrap up

Nothing too big happened this weekend. I went for a facial yesterday, slept a lot and watched scary movies on the Sci Fi Channel. I ended up getting sucked into one called "Unrest". The lead looked like Britney Spears. It wasn't a bad movie, not Oscar worthy for sure! It had an interesting premise but like any cheesy scary movie, had major holes.

All in all it was a good weekend. I got a lot of sleep and that was one of the goals! There are no huge stories to tell :). Yeah, I guess I need to schedule the delivery of my sewing machine so I can start sticking myself with needles :).

Everyone have a great week!!!

No Title

No Krav tonight. I did bills today and realized, if I wanted to eat, I might need to start next pay period. So the week of the 15th, I promise, a report of the butt whiping people will get. Trust me, I will probably still be in "Kick you in the head mode".

Now off to search sewing projects on-line. I am obsessesed :)>.

Happy Thursday! Good night.

Happy Wednesday

I have decided to learn how to sew. I think it is all these Project Runway episodes. Mom has a sewing machine I am going to take from my parent's house. She said Dad will be very happy :). We'll see where this experiment goes. I really need curtains and hey, might as well try it out on that. People, I don't even have a needle in my apartment, so this will be fun!!!

I am going to Krav tomorrow. I swore to Ryan I would go -- and while he won't kill me if I don't go, I made a promise to try it out. I will report back tomorrow. This past week has produced some "I want to kick you in the head" moments and I need an outlet. Yoga would not do it this time. I don't need calming, I need kicking in a controlled, productive environment.

"America's Next Top Model" started tonight. I am interested to see where this season goes with Isis, the first Transgendered contestant. And it is really my guilty pleasure. I love this show. I have to study the girls and see who my favorite is, although my girl always gets kicked off early on. Maybe I shouldn't root for someone.

Lets see, these are the most random things I can think of right now. I am too tired to write anything on Ms. Palin. Not sure what she brings to the table. I am all for a woman in office, we all know that. I won't be voting for McCain, but I am willing to research her more to find out what he saw in her. I just hope it wasn't because she had boobs.

Good night and special thoughts and prayers to my friend and her family tonight. When the time is right, I will reveal more, but now is not it. God knows who is in need of the prayers. He will take it from there.
