Wickedly Fun Trip

Well my friends.... I am off to see the Wizard tomorrow night... I can't wait to see Elphaba... I have missed her... like a dear old friend. I really feel like we had bonded on my last trip... If you haven't seen the Broadway production of Wicked, you should... and if you have, you know exactly what I am talking about. I'll bring my camera to the theater this time. The architecture is breathtaking. Amazing. I didn't bring it last time because I was sure they wouldn't let me bring it in... but they would... and I was bummed...
Try to carry on without me, but don't have too much fun... you know how I hate it when people have fun
without me...

VOTE, VOTE, VOTE!!!

Unless you are voting for Obama... then please stay home. =)

My poor baby sis...

Just want to let everybody know that Heather had her apendix taken out tonight just around 7pm... It went really well. Kerry thinks she will be home tomorrow. She is in McKay Dee hospital. I know that she could really use some help with the girls, especially Dant while Kerry is at work during the day for the next week or so, so if you could help out in any way, please let them know...I hope she recovers quickly... she has had such a hard time with her health lately. Maybe you could add her as part of your fast tomorrow... I know I will.

Someone shoot me...

So I have seriously lost my mind... with the help of Robyn. To see what I am talking about, go to Live,Love,Laugh...

Aahh... Memories


Thought it might be fun to scrounge around for some pics of Halloween's past of my 4 babies... now that my kids are older, they are "on thier own" if they want to dress up... use their imaginations, ya know? I really had to search... my pictures are everywhere... I wish somebody (obviously meaning not me) would take pity, and organize them for me. They are everywhere... so this is what I came up with...

An interesting take...

I was sent an interesting email today... a great object lesson on Obama's new wealth distribution concept...thanks Ed Spa-ged...

Today on my way to lunch I passed a homeless guy with a sign that read "Vote Obama, I need the money."... I laughed. Once in the restaurant, my server had on a "Obama 08" button. Once again I laughed as he had given away his political preference... just imagine the coincidence.When the bill came I paid cash but decided not to tip the server and explained to him that I was exploring the Obama redistribution of wealth concept. He stood there in disbelief while I told him that I was going to redistribute his tip to someone who I deemed more in need (the homeless guy outside). The server angrily stormed from my sight.I went outside, gave the homeless guy $10 and told him to thank the server inside, as I decided he (the homeless guy) could use the money more than him (the server). The homeless guy was happy... and I felt like a successful politician.At the end of my rather unscientific redistribution experiment I realized the homeless guy was grateful for the money he did not earn, but the waiter was pretty angry that I gave away the money he did earn even though the recipient clearly needed money more than him.I guess redistribution of wealth is easier to swallow in concept than in practical application.
With that said... here's a cute picture I received today that really sums it all up....
"I was just wondering...


Is this political CRAP almost over?"

Can I get a big "AMEN"?

One Last Ditch Effort To Get The Word Out...

I'm not one to really talk politics... don't get me wrong, I am a registered voter who takes those responsibilities very seriously... I just usually keep my thoughts to myself. But I find the idea of a man who won't salute the very flag of the country he is wanting to run very disturbing...so I am sharing a few clips that I happened upon... please watch... and please, please vote!
From Melissa's Desk
and thanks Melissa, for YOUR great post on the subject...

Woot Woot...HSM 3!!!


Yes, Yes, Yes... the day is finally here! High School Musical 3 in theaters today. I cannot WAIT to see this movie tonight with Jordy Sue, because as anyone who REALLY knows me knows... Zac Efron is my man...




Ok, that would really be Matthew McConnaughey....




and clearly, you can see why.... (heartbeat,heartbeat... thump, thump, thump)...




There really is a funny story to this obsession with the Zac Man... one night back in May the young women had a mother-daughter party. One of the games we played was a version of the Newlywed game. One of the questions for the daughters about their mother's was 'who is your mothers favorite actor?' I say "oh that's an easy one... Matthew McConnauhey".... again with the thumping of the heart... and Jordy laughs and says... "Um... that's not what I put." So now I am intrigued with who my new love interest might be... and she says "Zac Efron"... well, the whole room busts out laughing, and I say "what... isn't he like... 12???" "Mooommmm...." Jordy says.... "he's like 19, maybe 20...." Oh, all right then...haha...

Not that Zac isn't as cute as a bug in a rug... but Puh-lease...

So there you go... Zac has forever after been my main man...(just trickin Matthew)...
