Then, best of luck to you, Corin.

Oops! I did a no no. At least I didn't get porn pictures.

Good morning Overtaxed, All.

Are you signing up for that sweepstakes? The GP sounds like fun.

Couple guys in my fishing club went to New Zealand, they liked it alot.

Hey, that's a great link, thanks. You think the new movie's going to be OK?

[2Jedismom]

Oh...I dunno. Maybe.

Morning!

I am going to kill at least four of my siblings. Jill and Zach may or may not survive. It's justified, too. Usually when my parents go away for a weekend I just have to lock myself in my room to avoid the sibs' nasty cartoons and messy habits. This time, though... well, they don't listen to me, especially about bedtimes. I was willing to ignore the fact that Meg and Jill routinely stay up until 3 am when my parents aren't around, because they're quiet and it bites them in the end. But last night, I kept being woken up by their loud partying. The last straw was when I wwas jolted awake by them screaming the words of a commercial - at two in the morning! And then, they were angry at ME for telling them to shut up and go to bed!

If that's not bad enough, they were up again at 8:30 this morning, just as loud.

I wish I could figure out why my mother cleaned up my room. Was it to make me feel guilty - or to make up for her yelling at me first thing yesterday morning over something that really wasn't my fault? I don't understand her at all.

On a lighter note, I was sent on errands yesterday at work. Since I didn't have a car the boss had me borrow his. It was the first time I've ever driven a car that wasn't a giant SUV. Quite an experience! I think I need a little car of my own, they're fun and it doesn't feel like you're wrestling them into submission.

Poor Jen! What a disaster! LOL

Little cars are fun...I had a little black Dodge Omni stick shift that I just loved. I went to trade it in on a brand new Cavelier and as I was driving to the dealership, it started chugging...wouldn't drive at all...just chug chug chug. I got so mad, I whacked it in the side and yelled at it.

It drove smooth as silk after that. No kidding!

Are you signing up for that sweepstakes?

Yes, I signed up for it.

[Overtaxed]

What's the online trailer they say is posted? The ET thing?

I think so.

[2Jedismom]

I got the ET trailer thing. I keep trying to upload it onto my yahoo group, but it won't do it.

Kind of interesting how the appearance of the eye has changed so much for TTT. I wonder what motivated them to define it's shape so much more?

Just got back from the University of Miami bookstore, where I was picking up an art book.

A quick glance through the shelves showed that more weight is being given to art from non Western traditions, to stuff like Indian, African, etc.

I like African masks and stuff very much, but I have a hard time when the great classical traditions of Western art (and LOTR, even the movie, is within this tradition) have to be put in the back seat.

Sometimes the PC culture really gets to me.

But it's a beautiful day here, looks like the storms should miss us, I'm in a very happy frame of mind.

[2Jedismom]

Don't you love it when you're feeling cheerful? I'm a cheerful person by nature. I can not understand people who are irritable. I don't mind them being irritable, but why rain on my parade? LOL

[Sam Cree]

"Don't you love it when you're feeling cheerful?"

Yeah, it's good when you do. Somehow, in my old age I've gotten alot better natured and more outgoing, even chattering with cashiers at the grocery store (if they look happy), which I couldn't have imagined doing most of my life.

The lady I'm married to is very outgoing and bubbly (opposite of me), I think it's finally rubbing off or something.

"I'm a cheerful person by nature"

It shows through in your posts, it's nice.

[SuziQ]

So maybe that's what algore was doing in that Vietnam picture?

Nah! As you know, Corin, it is VERY difficult to sing from a bent over position like that. Can't get much force from the old lungs!

[Sam Cree]

Hi SuziQ, good afternoon.

[2Jedismom]

I'm feeling kinda blue, though...just now.

I just finished washing and sanitizing Joshua's potty insert so I can give it to the Blessing Mart at our church. Sigh. No more Sesame Street potty seat in the bathroom, for the first time in years.
