      • Lindsay Lohan's stunt double and other murmurings
        02/27/07
        Forever obsessed with movies and movie trivia, I had to search the movie database I love so much because the 15 year old thought he saw the actor who plays Lex Luthor on Smallville, Michael Rosenbaum , during the opening credits of "Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen".

        On a

        02/26/07
        I don’t know which is more depressing-that I no longer have time for Guild Wars, or that it’s because I spend my time reading and posting BLOGS. What happened to the carefree days of being lost in imaginary lands slaying epic beasts whilst my children fend for themselves and learn to survive without

      • My Own Little "Secret"
        02/26/07
        Upon opening my Internet Explorer (to indulge in a little something called BLOGGING), I see splattered across my screen an advertisement for a Newsweek article about the book, "The Secret".

        It's a dramatic picture, meant to look like scrolls from Jesus' day, hand-deliv

      • Too Much of a Good Thing...
        02/25/07
        Ahhhh, freedom.

        Freedom, freedom, free-dom. Saying the word FREEEEEE-dom takes up the time that I would normally use whistling a tune and looking around at my cluttered desk, trashed bedroom and overall dirty house. I'm free to clean it. Free to do the laundry, free to dust. I'm

      • Weekend CHALLENGE!
        02/23/07
        Ok, folks. If you've been here a while, you have a reasonably good idea of what I'm all about. As much as anyone can. So I issue this challenge to you:

        What does TSM mean to you? Literally? Please leave comments posting what each letter should stand for as a name to this blog (i

        02/22/07
        I tried to pretend like I was a REAL blogger...an organized, well-liked, humorous blogger with a large following. I tried to do a "weekly thing" like other bloggers do to add merit and believability. And what happened?

        Last week I started doing a Thursday Thirteen . This week,

      • Feeling a little down AKA Pity Party
        02/21/07
        I've noticed in the last few days that my mood has made a significant turn toward the dark side. I putt around the house (more like a waddle these days) and have a difficult time engaging myself in anything. Except movies. I can put on a movie or two and watch them all day. That, and read blogs

      • Am I Conservative?
        02/19/07
        I had the chance to read LOTS of new (to me) blogs today, and wasted a good portion of my day immersed in someone else's life. In previous posts , I have lamented that a large portion of the really entertaining blogs out there are run by bleeding heart liberals...er...I mean...people who think

      • Site was down, now it's not.
        02/18/07
        So we did some maintainence (which means we bought a new computer for our server) and the site was down for a bit. It should be fine now, and faster than ever.

        Thanks for your patience!

      • Do the... *crash* stinkin'... *shatter* DISHES!!!
        02/16/07
        As I type this, my background music is not some off the wall jazz rendition with crazy beats and dissonant chords. No. That's the sound of dishes clanking together forcefully enough to almost break them, but not quite. Breaking them, you see, would cause consequences. Almost breaking them makes

        (BATHROOM EDITION)

        1. I have a bathroom (it used to be yucky).




        2. Now my bathroom is PRETTY.








        3. People poop in my bathroom, and do not leave "Poop Logs".

      • Hearts, FARTS!
        02/13/07
        I am not in the mood for Valentine's Day.

        Don't get me wrong, it's not that I'm not blissfully in love with my husband. He still gives me chills in all the right places and makes my tummy turn flip flops when he smiles at me. That's not bad, after ten years.
      • For the same reason I haven't shaved my legs in weeks.
        02/12/07
        Before you leave your jaw open enough to catch insects, let me just say that 1. My husband has no problem with my legs being hairy and 2. I'm no different than half the women in the US during winter. There just isn't any point.

        Just as pointless was my day, today. I feel like I

      • A box of cookies and a pound of bite me.
        02/11/07
        After waking up at a lovely time this morning (over 8 hours sleep HURRAY!), I ventured out with the kiddos to church. Yesterday's women's conference was fabulous, and I feel a renewed sense of purpose. I was determined to have a good day. Funny how things don't always work out the way

      • Aforementioned Bunny...
        02/09/07
        In all her fuzzy cuteness.



        Tell me you could resist this girl?

      • What's up DOC?
        02/08/07
        It's furry.

        It has long ears.

        It's the cutest thing you ever saw.

        No, it's not my daughter. It's her new bunny. A baby rabbit, yes. Why did I cave to such a crazy notion as owning a pet bunny? Let me explain.

        We were visited last week

      • I am flippin exhausted
        02/07/07
        Maybe it's the lack of thyroid medicine.

        Maybe it's the impromptu bathroom remodel.

        Maybe it's the Fibro.

        Maybe it's the lack of sleep. No wait...I sleep a ton.

        Whatever it is, I can barely keep my head up and I need to go to bed.
      • Bathroom: Recovered. Me? Not so much.
        02/06/07
        After a FULL day's work, the bathroom is mostly done. See picture:



        In addition to the new floor, I also bought a new vanity. Things are not fully installed yet, but the floor is down and the toilet works. This is what is most important, no?

        I hope to throw s

      • I can't look...is it bad?
        02/05/07
        It's hard to say.

        This is going to change everything, isn't it?

        There will be some...adjustment. You'll need to make some accomodations for a while.

        *sob*

        I'm so sorry. Nobody is ever prepared for this kind of news.

      • Super WHAT?
        02/04/07
        Several questions.

        1. Why is it a super BOWL? I don't understand why high-stakes football games are referred to as a "bowl". Perhaps it's what someone like me would have to smoke to enjoy such a thing. Did I just say that?

        2. When did the 30 seconds in betwe

        1 . Read previous post regarding donuts.

        2 . Write a response detailing the most extreme actions taken during a jones for any given product (except illegal drugs...have to draw the line there, bein that this is a family type blog thing). For example:

        02/03/07
        It's a grey and rainy Saturday here in Oregon (shocker for the Northwest, eh?), and after all the fun we had last night, I needed COFFEE. Oh, that steamy creamy mochaloca goodness that awakens both the senses and my foggy brain. How I love coffee. I love the smell of freshly ground beans. I

        You're enjoying a wonderful visit with a dear friend. The meal was fantastic, the wine even better and the company divine. You excuse yourself to the restroom, and, as you are nosing around in there, you find on the back of the tank a journal. Well, why would it be there if they didn't wan
