I totally forgot 2007-08-15 19:28:00 To show you the Simpsonized pictures that I did.
You know I couldn't mess around with that crap without doing Hugh Laurie too.
:-)
Edited to add: I forgot to show Evan too.
He - I think we look weird, but Hugh Laurie Actually looks like that in real life.
Me - SHUT UP! *cries*
He's mean. Read more:totally
Out with the new, in with the old. Sort of 2007-08-15 19:08:00 I just didn't like the new template.
I like the old bright colors.
So I made new bg images.
I was going to at least change the colors around a bit, but I couldn't figure out exactly how I wanted it.
Whatever.
I finally got the header to show up where it's supposed to. Accidentally. LMAO!
Guess who came over today.
No.
No, I hate that motherfucker.
Mommy Dearest.
She came over to
Seriously??? 2007-08-22 00:39:00 So yesterday, Evan got his spelling list for the week. They have to put the words in alphabetical order & then write the definitions.
Today Evan tells me that THE TEACHER spelled ostensibly like this: astensibly. [Even if I misspelled ostensibly by starting with an "a", I would have spelled it like austensibly because that makes more sense phonetically. But maybe that's just me?]
He & a Read more:Seriously
I have a crush 2007-08-20 13:55:00 on Cesar Milan. The Dog Whisperer. He's so cute with his little self! LOL.
He has not replaced Hugh Laurie in my dreams, though. :-) Read more:crush
Evan came home from school today 2007-08-22 15:30:00 The first thing he said was "Do you want to know my reading level?"
I could tell from his 'trying not to grin' look that it was good.
It's 8.5 - 13.
Which is like a freshman in college.
I'm grinning.
Cause I think it's awesome!!!!
Even though he never reads, LOL.
Evan called me a racist 2007-08-29 16:21:00 We were in the kitchen.
Me - Hang up a black bag (Garbage bag. I have to be specific or he'll hang up a wal-mart bag...)
E - No
Me - HANG A DAMN BLACK BAG!
E - You're a racist. "hang up a black bag" You're a bag racist.
He's funny.
Sometimes.

So last night I was in the mood to sleep.
I took about 70 mg of melatonin. Which was less than I've taken in the past. I usually build up to about 100 mg, but since I hadn't taken any in a while, I figured 14 would get me nice and sleepy.
4 hours later I was not sleepy at all. I decided to take an OTC sleeping pill.
Crime & Punishment 2007-08-26 14:48:00 I was watching Taboo on the National Geographic Channel.
I forget what the topic was on this show. (They have different ones, like Taboo: Delicacies or Taboo: Sexuality, etc.) But at the end of the show, they showed the judge in Texas who makes the criminals wear signs professing their crimes in the area where the crime was committed.
Ted Poe is the name of the judge. (If you wanted to know.) Read more:Punishment
Movies 2007-08-31 21:46:00 We watched Disturbia & Aqua Teen Hunger Force movies.
ATHF was about like the regular show, except they didn't bleep the cussing.
Disturbia was not at all what I thought it would be, but still good.
I knew there was a reason I hated Det. Tritter! (House Season 3) Evan said House scarred him for life when he anally raped him with that thermometer and that's what turned him into a serial killer
Loaded Questions 2007-09-26 11:52:00 Hypotheticals: If you could attend any awards show, which would you choose? I wouldn't want to attend an award show. I don't really even watch them. I taped the Emmy's to see if Hugh Laurie would win, but I fast forwarded until I got to his category. If I HAD to go to one, it would be the VMAs. Only because I might hear some good music. But probably not.

Tuesday's TV Premiers 2007-09-26 10:23:00 House MD
The long awaited and highly anticipated (for me, at least) premier of season 4 of House MD was last night.
I thought it was funny. Especially when Wilson kidnapped House's guitar. It was also kind of sad for House to be going all over the hospital trying to do the differential diagnosis with anyone and everyone. (Dr. Buffer the janitor???)
One of the funniest lines, IMO, was when Read more:Tuesday

Evan got his saxophone tonight! 2007-09-24 21:48:00 Wheeeeeee! I'm so psyched. :-)
The music store guy suggested that the kids not play with their instruments tonight.
But, being me, I showed him how to grease his cork (Evan - That just sounds wrong.) and put the reed on. Then I said "Blow".
When I started on the clarinet, I used a 1 (hardness) reed. He's starting with a 2½. I told him that he might not be able to get any sound out of it.

You’ve won $100,000 – but have to give it all away. To which charity or institution would you donate it?
I'd start a scholarship fund for my old HS. Maybe then the girls would want to be something other than mothers & nurses.
What do you think is the most soothing sound?
Rain
Does time heal all wounds? No
Monday Madness
1. What was your biggest challenge this past week? Um...
This weekend 2007-09-23 18:18:00 First, yes I saw Hugh Laurie on The Tonight Show this Friday. I thought he looked yummy & laughed like a schoolgirl because he was so funny.
See the interview for yourself (as long as it's up, there are probably some copyright infringement issues so it will be taken down.)

Second, my air conditioner has been leaking onto my carpet. Which brings me to...
Third, I got a new
The Image Meme 2007-09-22 15:34:00 There's all kinds of stuff out there with my name. I always knew about The Angelika in New York. I didn't know there was one in Dallas too. I wonder how they pronounce it? Probably like Angelica. :-(
Anyway, I found a couple of models with my name too. But I'm not 5'10, white & Anorexic so I didn't include them, LOL.
I found this "meme" at Mother's Home. She said you could tag yourself. Read more:Image

I love this commercial 2007-09-21 01:13:00 When I first heard it I wasn't looking at the TV & I thought it was a real song and they were using it to promo a tv show.
The commercial is so short. But I found a longer version on youtube.
You can go to their website to see different videos.

Dirty Girl - Bobby Light Feat Chunky Boys 2007-09-19 16:08:00 I love Rob & Big on MTV. They need to do more episodes per season.

Monday Memes 2007-09-17 14:56:00 1. If you could fight any person you know, who would you choose? My mother. I think I'd get a lot of my anger/frustration with her out.
2. If you could fight any celebrity, who would you choose? I don't really give a shit about any of them enough to want to fight. Although it would be fun to beat the shit out of Oprah.

Blink 2007-09-16 15:24:00 The best Dr Who episode we (Evan & I) have ever seen came on Sci-Fi Friday. We've watched it 6 times already.
It could have been made into a movie. I could totally see M. Night Shyamalan doing something like that.
You should check your local listings to see if it's going to repeat on Sci-Fi or come on PBS.
This one didn't have a lot of The Doctor or Martha (I wonder if that's why it was so Read more:Blink

I got 3 hours of sleep last night 2007-09-12 13:35:00 I planned to sleep after Evan got on the bus this morning. But I wasn't able to fall asleep.
So I vacuumed. I washed dishes. I'm marinating some meat for tomorrow (soy sauce, sesame oil & garlic) & froze some ribs in teriyaki sauce for some other time. Swept the floor. I was going to mop, felt like I was going to pass out. Decided to try to sleep again.
There isn't jack shit on TV
