Who's with me? Pari$ Hil+on in jail...as it should be. I'm not a "hater", but I could not be happier than Paris Hilton going to jail. If it was anyone else wouldn't they have to serve time for the same offense?

I'm not sayin' I'm just sayin'.

Don't Blog Angry.

So, well, yesterday I was a little peeved. I shouldn't have taken it out on you. I'm sorry. (P.S. I use emoticons EVERY day at least 50 times per day...)

On with a new day. We finally got a much needed, albiet short-lived, rainfall. I am blogging about the friggin' weather...I'm old.

Let's see....

Hmmmm....

Yep, that's right. I have nothing of any real interest to say at the moment. I started out wanting to say something. Now, I have no idea. Oh well....hopefully I will feel more blog-worthy tomorrow.

We are going to Jacksonville in two weeks for my Great Aunt & Uncle's 50th Wedding Anniversary celebration and renewal of vows. This is my paternal Grandfather's half-sister. 50 years is a LONG time to spend with someone. I hope to be so lucky in life. I'm going to see relatives I haven't seen in MANY years and some I've never met. People are coming from all over, as far away as Boston and even Taiwan. Pretty cool.

Th-th-th-That's all folks!

I wanted to put something on here that made me smile when I looked at it. Here's my son's first smile captured on cell phone cam. (Hard to believe this was 3 years ago...)

Things that suck and/or piss me off.

1) Women who use their husband's e-mail address, rather than getting their own.
2) People who cut me off in traffic (while on their cell phones).
3) Parents who allow their children to throw fits in public and do NOTHING about it.
4) My child throwing a fit in public. (at least we remove ourselves...)
5) Car repairs.
6) Home repairs.
7) People who make lists about things that piss them off. :-P
8) Emoticons. :-) :-( :-P
9) The end of the weekend....i e. the beginning of the week.
10) Monday.

Life in the Fast Lane...

My weekend.

I met a friend for girl's night out for dinner and a movie ("Mr. Brooks") and ended up playing the roll of Detective at Phipps Plaza when I witnessed a car hit a parked car in the parking deck and then do nothing. He parked his car and went in to the mall (right after checking out what damage was done to HIS car...not the car he hit mind you) and came back about 10 minutes later and left. There wasn't much damage to the other car, but the guy should at least have left a note. The guy's bumper could fall off when he drives out of the parking deck. So, I got the license plate and gave my "statement" to mall security. Security was extra interested when I told them he was on his cell phone. I hope I've hopped on the Karma train.

Finally got to the movie (what is UP with paying $9.25 for 15 foot images on a screen???) and was somewhat surprised at a semi-interesting movie. It was kind of sloppy b/c there are a couple of things WAY wrong with it, but it was definitely entertaining. Dane Cook was pretty good too for his first real time in a drama. You could tell he REALLY wanted to be funny but pulled back for the drama. Kevin Coster was great as a bad guy, William Hurt, I just can't say enough good things about him. Demi Moore was pretty good, too. (Man, if I could only look that good at her age!!) All in all, fairly entertaining, but with a few glaring flaws. I didn't hate paying that much money for it.

We put our son in a "big boy" bed. There has been no sleep to be had in our house for a couple of days now. ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

Last but not least, came to work with my hair wet for the first time in 10+ years. (Yes, you DO care.) It's one thing in or right after college, but once your IN the workforce.... Yeah, I have my "flafro" going on... (that's my term for my hair...flat but fro) I just ran out of time this morning. I figure I'll pull it up by 10 am anyway...

I know I've bored the piss out of anyone who cares enough to read this with 3 boring things and one "what the hell?" statement, but rock on!! But at least you've learned a new word "flafro". That's mine, but you can use it.

Have a great Tuesday!

Pics I just know you've been DYING to see from our vacation:

the view from our "hotel" room.

Isn't it sad that someone this cute should get poison ivy on vacation??

Daddy is such a good sport!!

Our setup on Anna Maria Island. It was a little breezy.
