Since it’s shopping season and no one has immeasurable wealth that *I* know, I figured I’d share one of my absolutely favorite websites. Mr. Rebates is absolutely fabulous. Coupon codes, plus rebates from most major online retailers. You can save money and earn money back at the same time.I love the site [...]

This is the story wherein I tell you why I hate shopping. I dislike crowds of people, but it’s more than that, really. Several years ago, when I was in college, my father picked me up in the city because we had to shop for Thanksgiving dinner. My mother wasn’t feeling well, [...]

‘Twilight’ takes $70.6M bite out of box office
This doesn’t surprise me.  I do wish that more people would be far more tolerant of Twilight.  I keep hearing people whine and complain about the movie and books. They get bent out of shape because the vampires aren’t the same as what Anne Rice wrote about.  That’s [...]

I love to look around at different websites for shopping. One of my favorite things to look at are funny t shirts. I don’t know why they amuse me so much, but they do. There are some that I’d never wear, ever. I don’t know why people would wear some of [...]

You can tell that Christmas is coming quickly. Every time you look around, there are Christmas lights sparkling, twinkling, etc. I’ve seen them on houses, garages, shrubbery and even carports this year. It’s weird to think that there are people who decorate every single inch of space that they can.Personally, I wish [...]

Ashlee Simpson-Wentz, Pete Wentz have baby boy
Congratulations to them.   Why is this such a big headline though? Don’t celebrities have babies every day? Oh right, Ashlee has a bad reputation, so she’s big news.  I wish people would get over it and move on.  Just because they’re celebrities, doesn’t mean they’re any different [...]

I love when a plan comes together, I really do. I sent out a package on Wednesday to someone (not saying who! Sorry!) and it’s getting to the destination much quicker than I expected. Then again, when you pay nearly $11 to ship something that’s not really all that heavy or big even… [...]

Vampire fascination helps HBO to well-timed hit – Yahoo! News
You bet it’s well-timed.  With all the hype over Twilight, HBO was smarter than they’ve been in a long time when they chose to air True Blood.  Personally, I haven’t watched it yet.  I watched the first few minutes of the first episode and ended up [...]

Julianna Margulies says she won’t be back at ‘ER’ – Yahoo! News
With them bringing everyone they can back for the final season, I have to say I’m a tad disappointed by this news.  However, I’m incredibly proud of her for making the decision to leave the past as it was.  I don’t really understand why [...]

“Twilight” film franchise looks ahead – Yahoo! News
You have no idea just how happy this makes me.  I love the series of books, but wouldn’t you think that it would be smarter to wait to find out if the first one was a flop before signing on for more? I can understand wanting to get [...]

I noticed today while shopping that there are all these fat burners all over the shelves that anyone can buy. Is it just me that thinks it’s kind of screwed up? I mean, shouldn’t we be discouraging kids from using these things to lose weight and encouraging them to do it the right way?Shouldn’t [...]

So, Rob had a Friday off for a change. What? When does that happen? Oh yeah, when he was supposed to have a dental appointment. I’m kind of ticked about that, actually. We scheduled his appointment for today, he went and told his boss. She told him he would either have [...]

Joe Jonas and Taylor Swift.  Now there’s a pairing that I never would have made.  I can’t help but wonder if it was real or if it was a made up break-up to up either reputation.  It wouldn’t be the first time celebrities made [...]

Twilight Zones Out AC/DC – Yahoo! News
This made me laugh.  Too many people are all kinds of upset about Twilight as a movie, now how many people are going to flip out over the Soundtrack ousted AC/DC from the top spot.  I’m not sure, however, if the Soundtrack deserves to be in the top slot.  [...]

Parole hearing for man linked to Hudson killings – Yahoo! News
This makes me sick.  How can they even consider giving parole to a convicted felon that is also a suspect in even more crimes? I don’t understand why they would even entertain the idea that this person would get parole for anything right now.  Why [...]
