Legendary actor Paul Newman dies at age 83 – Yahoo! News Sad, but not completely unexpected, at least not if you’d seen him lately.  He hasn’t looked well for quite a while and it had to be known that it was just a matter of time before he was gone.  It is still sad, though, [...]

I’m not up to posting a whole lot tonight, so I will say that today was fabulous. Seriously. We went to cash his check and came home after a brief stop at the bread store and taco bell. Came home and caught up on email, lj and plurk.Headed off to get pizza for dinner, then [...]

Magician David Blaine completes his latest stunt – Yahoo! News I watched this farce of a stunt tonight.  It was definitely a farce, you could see the wire as he ‘vanished’ into the night.  Not to mention, the point was for him to hang upside down for 60 hours, not be upright during various periods [...]

Lindsay Lohan admits Sam Ronson affair live on radio – mirror.co.uk More celebs coming out, just as I called for.  Now we need a few more to follow suit… I don’t care who is and isn’t gay, but it’s funny that everyone is coming out now.  Why? Is it because of the politics? Is it [...]

The Associated Press: Clay is gay: Aiken comes out of the closet How many people didn’t already know this? Seriously.  How incredibly unobservant do you have to be to have not figured it out when he was on AI all these seasons ago? I mean, my gaydar isn’t always that great, but come on, he [...]

Buying a diamond can be a scary and tricky thing to do if you don’t know what you’re doing. It’s a lot harder if you’re wanting to buy one online. That’s why you need to check out Blue Nile’s diamond collection. Diamonds are all measured by the 4 C’s, which means color, cut, clarity and [...]

That was one helluva Yankees game. The pre-game celebrations and post-game celebrations were very well done. I’m glad they one, that’s for sure. It would have been wrong had they lost. Watching them walk the outfield and salute the fans is awesome. Well done, Yankees. Amazing game, really. You would have thought it was a [...]

Since I plurked about it, I should post about it…The other day, I got an advance reader copy of Lori Handeland’s upcoming book.Advance. Reader. Copy.So far? It’s excellent!

I’m so not happy with myself atm.. I had a soda accident. I spilled half a can of soda on my crochet bag…*sigh*The princess blanket is destroyed. There is no way the stain will come out of that and it was around half done.The purple striped blanket got wet, but I got it quickly enough [...]

Not all Mine.. some are egg sitting..

Some days, especially when it’s hot and icky, I keep thinking that I should get contact lenses so that I don’t have to wear my glasses all the time. I don’t know if I can wear them, though. I don’t know that I can put them in without killing myself or something.I hate my glasses, [...]

My Eggs… Egg Sitting… Set free…My Hatchlings…

I can’t swim. I never learned how to swim, never had a reason to.When we lived in Vegas, we spent a lot of time at the pool, mostly because it was the coolest place to be. We always saw a lot of people with pool floats and I never really understood why. Isn’t the point [...]

I love my camera, I really do. I would also love to have a Canon Powershot as well. Something that’s a bit more professional and has a better zoom feature to it. I definitely need to get a tripod for one sooner or later. I don’t know, however, if Kodak has the ones that are [...]

I need to stop stressing out. My skin is a major wreck and I really need to find an acne treatment that doesn’t make my skin oily. I know that when I stress, my skin breaks out, but I can’t stop stressing when I’m faced with all the crap I seem to be dealing with.Tax [...]

The economy sucks, we all know this. This means that there is a lot of stores going out of business, closing, doing whatever they can not to sink into the cesspool that is our economy. This means that there is a ton of commercial real estate out there to be had, if you can afford [...]

I keep watching different home improvement type shows, shows where they fix up houses for sale and whatnot. One thing that I’ve noticed is that when they do a kitchen, they change the kitchen sinks 9 times out of 10. And it always makes a vast improvement to the kitchen. I don’t understand why, though, [...]

Life is not insured nearly as well as it should be. What do I mean by that? I mean that if you look at a term life insurance quote from one company with a quote from another company, there are always a bunch of differences. You always have to decide what you’re willing to compromise [...]

So, I love to do different crafts and one of the cool things that I’ve seen people do is make pet beds with some fabric and fiber fill. The problem with those, however, is that they are hard to keep clean. What I was thinking is that if you take a foam form, carve it [...]

I’m tired today. I went to bed at a reasonable hour, considering I’d been going to bed around 3am.. Woke up at 8 to go to Rob’s appointment.. Got home and laid down around 1 and slept for about 2 hours.. Got up to deal with some packages, then around 6 I laid down again [...]

My Eggs… Egg Hatchling Sitting… Set free…My Hatchlings…

I think so, at least. *giggle*

So, The Express premiered in Syracuse tonight. I can only imagine the hoopla surrounding that. The only reason that this interests me is because it’s the story of Ernie Davis.Ernie Davis (December 14, 1939 – May 18, 1963) was an American Football player who became the first African-American to win the Heisman Trophy. Wearing number [...]
