Yeah, so I changed the colors and patterns on my blog all by my little self.
Problem is, I'm never completely satisfied, so it may be a little different every time you visit.
You know what that means, don't you? You've got to come back over and over and over again to check and see what I've changed.
And leave a comment while you're at it.
Hey, good morning everyone.
There are roofers all over the top of my house, and I may be cranky. Why, you ask? You know I'll tell ya.
I do not like the supervisor of the roofing people. He's overly friendly and a little creepy. Talks to me about things other than roofing. Obnoxious.
I don't know how Scooter(5) and Toddler That I Babysit will take a nap with all the banging going on. No naps = grumpy.
I'm anxious about the color of the roofing material. We had it narrowed down to three choices, and then Big Daddy called the roofers and told them SOMETHING COMPLETELY DIFFERENT. When I tried to do damage control, it was too late to order my choice, so they improvised. I don't like the way it looks in my driveway; hopefully it will look different on the roof.
I suspect that it will look just like all the other houses on the street, and that I'm stressing for no reason.
I've been known to do that.
Yeah, so I ended up watching the American Idol Finale Results Extravaganza tonight, even though I don't give a dang who won. Man, I didn't even watch the performances last night, cause did I mention that I stopped caring?
But please go on over to the Entertainment Blog and check out my random and at times disturbing thoughts. And be sure to tell me what you thought about tonight's show. Or whatever.
Thanks.
I'm so sad that after tonight I won't get to see my new pretend boyfriend, Cristian de la Fuente. Wah.
I don't even know what he does in real life. Do you?
Anyway.
My thoughts on tonight's Finale are over at the Entertainment Blog. What did you think about tonight's show?
Y'all would not believe the dream I had last night. I don't even believe it myself.
Here are a couple of highlights:
We're in an abandoned spa/restaurant/whatever the heck.
Who's WE? I don't know. There were several people with me, but the only one I'm certain of is me.
So this spa/restaurant/whatever was open for business yesterday, but today it's deserted. So WE decide to go forward with business as usual, as best WE can.
This snooty guy is asking for certain vintages of wine, and since I only drink Boone's Farm, Jack Daniels and frozen girly drinks, he's oh, so out of luck. I'm trying to write down what he says, but he's very pretentious and says it too fast for me to catch.
Then WE can't find the diners, but maybe they're dining in the wine cellar, which is where? I don't know.
The next thing that happens is this big, honkin' body builder guy comes in like he's been there a hundred times, so I try to act like I know what I'm doing. He goes down a hallway, which I realize is the tanning section.
I can handle this.
I find the controls to the tanning junk, match the number on his door to the controls, and turn it on. Then his door swings open, and I see his big ol' body builder booty. Unclothed. But I close my eyes very quickly.
I promise.
I realize that the booth he's in is the spray-on tanner, and hope it's working properly. I go back to the front desk.
The guy comes out into the hall, griping about something, covered in some kind of green goop, and I wonder if this is how the spray-on stuff works but since he's wiping it off, I suspect it's not.
I'm a cheapskate, y'all. Most of the time, anyway. And it seems like everything costs money these days, More and More Money.
Big Daddy and I both upgraded our cell phones recently, and I hunted like crazy for the best deals on the phones we wanted. He got a Sony Ericsson 580i and I got a Blackberry Curve. We love 'em.
Except. I can't stand that it costs 2.49 to download a ring tone from AT&T. Can't stand it. So I spent some down time the other day looking for a frugal alternative, and BOY did I find it!
Enter Phonezoo.com. Y'all, this site is great. You upload any piece of music (or other audio media) that you own, and VERY easily create your very own ring tone. And don't worry about it being difficult, because if I can do it, it's not rocket science.
So yeah, you do have to own the music, but most of the ring tones I've made so far have come from CDs that I've owned for years. I'm nostalgic like that.
But. Big Daddy wanted a more current ring tone, so we downloaded the MP3 from Amazon.com
In the interest of disclosure, I want to be sure and let you know that I'm not getting any compensation for mentioning either of the sites here. However, I will get a teensy commission if you buy anything from Amazon by clicking on one of my links here. Maybe even enough to download another MP3 for Big Daddy!
It's been quite awhile since I've participated in Works for Me Wednesday, so I'm glad that this week I have a fun tip to share. Enjoy!
Yeah, I'm rambling on about Dancing With The Stars again. Check it out at the Entertainment Blog. And don't forget to come back tonight for my cynical comments on American Idol.
Love y'all.
Hey, y'all. How's your Monday going? Mine started crappy but is presently very lovely.
I stayed up way too late last night watching the Survivor Finale on DVR, so it was a VERY sleepy Mommy who took Scooter to school this morning. By the time I got back home I felt like crap, so I crawled right back into bed for a couple of hours.
The next time I woke up I felt much better, and went to get Scooter from school. We ran some errands, and while we were gone Big Daddy put my new sheets and quilt on the bed.
Big Daddy Rocks.
So do my new Lilly Pulitzer sheets that I got at Marshall's for $35.
So yeah, doesn't take much to thrill me - new sheets and a new quilt on a perfectly made bed.
Life's Good.
