I'm a dork

No. I really am. I talked to Steve's mom in church a couple of hours ago. She said something like "So, I hear you're going out to dinner Tuesday." I said "Yeah. Seventy-three hours ... Not that I'm counting or anything." One of the coolest things about Steve's mom is that she doesn't make me feel like a dork when I say such dorky things.

BlogMaze

This is my first time doing BlogMaze. I hope I did it right.

So Very Posh
I hadn't heard this until I saw it on Lynda's blog. Is Andy Kaufman really alive? If he is -- if this is real -- he's a genius.

And She Said
nice review of Shrek 2

Deep Thoughts
I really liked Adelle's post on tipping. "I am going to start asking for tips when people want my opinion, ask to borrow something, etc.


Aged & Confused
Yvonne's post about the death of an online friend really touched me. One of my online friends died several years ago. Although I never met him in person, I think of him often and I miss the fun we used to have in Yahoo! chat. I hope ya know that Mark! <3

Tales from the Left Hand Path
Very interesting read. "No one likes a vagina more than I do."

Random Questions; Random Days...

Do you daydream? If so, what about?

Yes. Great Smile Guy. Big surprise, huh? One of my favorites is when I win an Emmy Award (because my books have been made into a TV series. Hey, it's my daydream, I can dream big if I want.) and I thank him for continuing to inspire me everyday (which he does).

Great Smile Guy

I've known for years it was more than his killer smile. Actually, the first thing that attracted me to him was his sense of humor. Second, his intelligence. Third, the way his entire face lights up when he talks about his kids. So, I'm really not that shallow. But I noticed something today that I never noticed before: His voice makes my knees turn to jelly. I love listening to him talk, and now I know it's not just because of what he's saying. However, there is one thing he said tonight that, had I been wearing jeans instead of a skirt, woulda made me cream 'em. He called me "my dear." *sigh* *swoon* *smile* I do believe I haven't stopped smiling since he said it.

I hope his daughter never finds this blog because, well, idk, I just think she'd be apalled if she saw this and figured out someone was this nuts about her dad. But ... /whine I just can't help it. /end whine.

Good-night & have a pleasant tomorrow ...

I'm sad about Jimmy Fallon leaving SNL. I know a lot of people got annoyed when he and Horatio Sanz would make each other laugh, but I thought that was one of the best parts of the show. But, as sad as I am, I know life goes on and SNL goes on. I remember feeling almost the same way when Chevy Chase left. Oh well. I guess we'll see what happens.

On a sad note ...

I just heard Tony Randall died. So, in honor of him I'll post these lyrics as well:

No matter where they go
They are known as the couple.
They're never seen alone
So they're known as the couple.

As I've indicated
They are never quite separated,
They are peas in a pod.
Don't you think that it's odd.

Their habits, I confess
None can guess with the couple.
If one says no it's yes
more or less, with the couple.

But they're laugh provoking;
Yet they really don't know they're joking.
Don't you find
When love is blind
It's kind of odd.


I didn't even know The Odd Couple theme had lyrics. So, thanks Isabella, for pointing this out!

TV Tuesday

1. What is your favorite TV theme song?
"Where Everybody Knows Your Name" -- Cheers

2. Which song drives you crazy enough to hit mute on the remote?
I really can't think of a song that drives me that crazy but whenever I hear the "Sanford & Son" theme I change the channel becasue I hate the show.

3. Which song are your proud to say you remember (most of) the lyrics to???
There are SO many I remember all the lyrics to. One night Nick & I stayed up for hours singing TV theme songs. Among them were The Jeffersons, Green Acres, Petticoat Junction, The Partridge Family, The Brady Bunch and ...

~Bonus~ Put the lyrics on your page (from memory), and I'll list you next week in the TV Tuesday Theme Song Hall of Fame. Don't forget to leave a comment so I'll know you posted!

This is it. This is life -- the one you get -- so go and have a ball.
This is it. Straight ahead and rest assured you can’t be sure at all.

So while you’re here enjoy the view keep on doing what you do
So hold on tight we'll muddle through one day at a time.

So up on your feet. Up on your feet. Somewhere there’s music playing.
Don’t you worry none. We’ll just take it like it comes. One day at a time.

~~~

Actually, my favorite lyrics are from "WKRP in Cincinnati" but Isabella already posted that & I didn't want to cheat :)

Matters of the heart...

1. What do you look for in a guy/girl?
He has to be smarter than I am, but he has to know he's smarter so he doesn't have to prove it all the time.
2. Looks or personality?
Personality ... with one exception: He has to have a great smile.
3. If your guy girl cheated on you, what would you do about it?
I'd say adios. I'm not looking for another serious relationship so I wouldn't go through the emotional turmoil involved in discussing it.
4. Would you date someone just because they're popular?
"just because?" No, but it helps.
5. If your parents disapproved of your relationship, what would you do?
Now? Nothing. If she doesn't like him, too bad.

Something cool happened ...

... in church last night. Usually people leave church before the priest leaves the altar. Or they leave as he's walking up the aisle. Well, last night the closing song was "Let There Be Peace on Earth." Everyone stayed to sing. The priest was already out the door and people were still inside the church singing the second verse! It's kind of a miracle, really.
