About This Blog :
Movies, music, pop culture. With maybe an occasional personal ramble.


This blog, though not expressly friends only, is friends only more often than not. Quite a few personal entries will be friends locked. So LJ users, if you want to be added and able to read everything, just comment or sign the guestbook to let me know you've done so.

Do know that I may not always add you back. But may be persuaded to if you're nice. And offer cookies.

I tend to like to sometimes post surveys and quizzes that I find particularly amusing. And memes are fun. Particularly when there isn't really anything interesting to write about at that moment and I want to post. I try not to get overly annoying with the quizzes though. If I do, feel free to poke me and let me know.

I tend to just be random in my posting. Nothing too heavy or overly personal, my paper journal is for that, and just for me. I may post here about news headlines that grab me, some family stuff, things I'm obsessing over at the moment, even work rants. See my LJ interests for more of my favorites and loves.

Commenting is welcome, and I do allow anonymous comments. However, anonymous comments are screened and will NOT be unscreened and show up until I approve them.

George has a tambourine on his head!



Sunset doesn't last all evening
A mind can blow those clouds away
After all this, my love is up and must be leaving
It's not always going to be this grey

All things must pass
All things must pass away
All things must pass
None of life's strings can last
So, I must be on my way
And face another day


“I think people who can truly live a life in music are telling the world, 'You can have my love, you can have my smiles. Forget the bad parts, you don't need them. Just take the music, the goodness, because it's the very best, and it's the part I give'”


We miss you George.

Do you put up decorations for the holidays? If so, when do the decorations go up and when do you take them down?

Yes, we put a few things up for every holiday. But we really go all out for Christmas. We don't put up the tree or anything until like the first week of December, so we have next weekend pegged for that. This is because we always get a live tree. We usually take things down the week after Christmas because by then the tree is starting to get drier.

10th-Nov-2009 10:57 am - DWTS rants ahoy! Not watching or following the show? Mosey on along. :wink:
Donny Osmond / big smile
It's down to the wire. Down to five couples. One goes home tonight. Donny Osmond scored evenly with Aaron Carter last night. And I'm still fuming, because he was totally lowballed. They did a distinguished, technically good Viennese Waltz and got 9 8 9 that 8? Came from Len. He claimed he didn't like that it was "arty farty". What the HELL does that mean? It was no more "arty farty" than Mya's performance. They were actually on par with each other and all three give her 10s?

Video and more rantage this way... )

Nail biting time. Should they be called safe tonight, I need you guys to just do me a solid? Call in a vote for Donny & Kym come Monday showtime? The number is 1 800 868 3405 You can also vote online: http://abc.go.com/shows/dancing-with-the-stars . You have to register there to vote online but it's free and easy.

Thank you for letting me vent! LOL! And thank you for your votes in advance!!
