A piece of me

So this is me. Yeah, I know. Got my hair in a ponytail. I’m growing it out for this wedding in October. As soon as I get back, it’s gone. I love my hair short now. I don’t have to fool with it. Randy loves it long…for his own reasons…hmm, hmm. No comment on that. So here I am:




I guess I don’t have to tell you I’m pretty disappointed with my look right now. The photo is a little blurry, but it’s what I normally look like.

Now, I look fairly harmless, right? You would think so. The funny thing is sometimes I think I have the potential to just be completely nutso. I have all these ideas that people just don’t always agree with. My opinions are strong on several subjects. I am no milquetoast. I will tell you how I feel about things whether you think I’m right or not. Not my problem anyway!

For instance, the hubby and I were having a discussion the other day about the stupidity of the O J thing. Now I am no fan of O J in the least. But it was awful convenient that the whole event was on audiotape, don’t you think? I don’t know about you, but I don’t carry around a tape recorder unless I think someone is going to do something spectacular (in other words, never). So we were watching Nancy Grace the other night and she was “discussing” the O J incident with “expert” commentary. People were calling in and asking questions. There are some intelligent people out there (I found this interesting). One woman called in with the question, “If the alleged victims are discovered to have entrapped Mr. Simpson, will they be charged? And, also, if the items in question are determined to be stolen, will charges be brought against the individuals?” Now, I thought these were interesting questions because it brings a different viewpoint as well as the possibility for reasonable doubt. Ms. Grace then posed the question to her “expert” this way: “Why does everyone think O J is being set up?” That is not what the woman was saying and beyond that, the “expert” never actually heard the intelligent questions so they were never answered. I always thought Nancy Grace was a semi-intelligent woman, but that just blew it for me. How prejudicial could you possibly be? What a condescending thing to do?!

Okay, so there is my soapbox. I will continue on another day…

Global Warming

For your amusement....

No time...

I have been pretty busy lately, but not as much as I should be. Work is boring! We are slow and with the changes in the market (mortgages for those that don't know), it is very difficult right now. Knowing that I am the only "employee" these guys have doesn't exactly provoke a comforting feeling. That just means I am the only one they can "downsize" when the going gets tough. So much for loyalty! Oh, well. I guess that is the price of business today. Nothing is sacred.
I have taken to doing what I term as "blog-surfing". Has anyone else done this? I have found some of the most interesting people out here in blogspot world. Of course, I don't really meet them; just sort of look around at their stuff and move on...It's a little weird, but I suppose if it's out here in internet land, we can look at it. You would be amazed at the amount of porn blogspots there are! It's crazy. Now, don't get me wrong, I love good porn. And yes, I am a woman, and no, I don't think it's degrading to women. It's their choice so go thump your bible somewhere else. I happen to get off on the visual if you know what I mean. Randy just loves that! It sure helps in the bedroom department since the old doc snipped the wrong nerves during the tubal ligation and half my vagina is numb. Lovely, eh?! Yeah, doesn't help the libido.
Anyway, that's not what my rant is about today. I guess I just wanted you all to know I'm still alive. Not that anyone really reads this blog regularly, but just in case.
Amanda is having a hard time at college. Not classes or her roomate or any of the things you would normally think. Boys are stupid! They hurt her because she is so very innocent. She never really had a boyfriend (a decent guy) in high school. She dated what? one boy the whole time. So she doesn't know what to do when a guy flirts with her. It's a little scary to me. Not exactly sure what to do about it though.
Cam had his 16th birthday on Friday. Damn, I'm gettin' old. He is so into band stuff right now. He doesn't even want to go get his permit. He says he doesn't have the time for it and is not ready. Okay. That saves me a little worry. We still need to order the video games he wanted. No one in the area carries them. Figures. Rural areas aren't fun for the technologically advanced. Of course, they wouldn't know what a decent tortilla tastes like here either.
Well, time is up for today. I've blathered on enough....
What a waste of time today.
