Things for the First Day of Love
Now is the time to get rid of that unwanted Boyfriend or Girlfriend, Husband or Wife. That way you don't have to buy them a Valentines present. I'm not being mean I'm being truthful. How long are you going to drag this detrimental relationship out? Remember cheaters are dogs with flees. My husband has a friend that can't figure out how to leave. So in two months he's going to marry the problem. Yeah, that's going to work.
Everybody has been saying what with the weather. Today I want to know what's with the weather predictions? One news station says we'll be in the 30's this weekend while another news station and the weather channel say 50's-60's. Which is it? If I'm going to freeze my ass off I'd like a little warning. Now my friends in Canada just called me a big cry baby because they've had negative temperature for about a week now maybe more.
There is a person that visits my blog that has been totally wronged in the blogging world. Some male human took a photo from her photo page and then wrote a little ditty about her on his blog. I'm choosing my words carefully and being very kind. This guy makes guys that whistle and scream "Hey Baby" look like saints. This male human scares me. Hard to do. It's the way he uses his words that really bothers me. He makes the statement that he doesn't act on things anymore because he's changed his life. I wonder what he's gotten away with.
The word murder makes you stop and take a deep breath because once that word has been uttered what follows is going to be unpleasant. In 2005 here in Austin a girl was murdered and listening to parts of the trial on Fridays news was definitely unpleasant. The girl was only 21.
The birds are singing to the gardeners "Look lively planting time is coming soon." I've heard that bird song twice this week. Last year I didn't have money for plants. This year I'm going "Hog Wild". I'm even thing about trying a flower pot vegetable garden. If the weather holds I could start a lettuce garden real soon.
This quote was brought to my attention yesterday.
Programmers are a strange product. Yes they are a product. They are no longer human. They sold their souls cheap to the Lord of the Code. The Code Lord eats their souls and gives them strange abilities. First they become very, very arrogant. They need this later so they can call other programmers stupid. This process is beneficial to build a solid program process. The programmers also develop odd abilities to read big ass books that no body else can read or understand. Their reading tells them where the back slash, colon or nested table must be placed. They consume large quantities of caffeine and candy. This helps them to only sleep 3 hours a night.
Is the word cheap a dirty word in your vocabulary? Well if it is I'll bet the credit card company's own you. Me, I'm cheap. I don't like paying full price for anything.
Time to work off all that beer I drank last summer so I can drink more this summer! Hey if the Indy Colts can make it to the Super Bowl I can work out and get back into shape. The truth, I'm scared. I've never had to work at staying in shape until about a year ago. That's when I stopped working out 3 to 4 times a week. In the last few months I've tried but I've also found every reason not to work out. I keep asking myself "What's wrong with you?" I don't have any answers yet.
It's bad enough that everything is frozen around here but now it's melting. My son didn't want to walk outside this morning because big chunks were falling out of the trees. At one point today my front yard looked like someone dumped party ice everywhere. I should have made homemade ice cream because I was getting the ice for free.
These pictures are not great but I was trying not to get hit in the head. I've lived through ice storms before but I've never seen ice fall off the trees like this. Everybody keeps asking what's up with this freaky weather. That point hit me hard as I read about the hurricane force winds hitting parts of Europe.
Here's the jacket that I won from
Well I wished for an ice castle and I got one didn't I. What was I thinking? Heating this castle is like throwing money out the window. Thank God those dogs stopped the Slush Puppy machine in the sky.

She didn't wear this bracelet. I'm showing this picture to shame myself into doing better. It took a whole 5 minutes to make this and if you look close, it shows. The second time I wore it, I broke it.
So your sit at home and there's nothing on TV. No Books to read. Your flat out tired of Blogging. Well go to ABC.com and watch "Lost" or "Brothers & Sisters". Now you will need a fast internet connection. I get a kick out of doing this. After Trinity goes to bed I place the laptop on my bed and watch TV shows I've missed. Sometime in the not to far off future we'll order our favorite shows online.
Yes I'm talking vampires. We've all been introduced to the world of the Nosferatu. These strange legends have survived the test of time. But why really? 
No I just went to Ikea. Well it felt like hiking. Dear Ikea people please move the kitchen department closer to the pots and pans department. That way when I get a great idea I don't have to walk 5 city blocks back through your maze to get what I want to buy.
How much of what goes on in the world do you share with your kids? A thought that goes through every parents head from time to time. Many bloggers write about what they won't let their kids do and why. In my neighborhood I'm the Mean Mom. Yes, my son has given me this title of honor. Sorry I don't pay out for bad behavior. Also I don't have long talks about world events. My son did ask me if we(meaning the US) killed Saddam and I told him "No!" He said "Thank God. they can't hate us for that." Profound words from a 14 year old whom normally only thinks about skateboarding and playing his guitar. Then to day I read that a 10 year old Houston boy mimicking Saddam's hanging truly did hang himself. That's sadness folks. My heart goes out to the parents. I'm sure they are feeling a level of blame. Just like the blame the parents feel for not having a gun lock on their gun. Yes a gun lock might have prevented yet another school shooting. I didn't tell my 14 year old about the school shooting. I figure he has enough to deal with just trying to get his Math and English grade up.
And on the third day? I really don't have anything to blog about. No one to make fun of. Wait! Yes I do.
Yesterday on My BlogLog I found Paul Sanchez. Paul did a Solo Ride around the US to raise awareness for dyslexia and other learning difficulties. Please go to Paul's blog 8 Wishes and check out his video. What he has done and what he is doing is very inspiring.
