    • The Whole Club Was Lookin' at Her...

      • New York

        Given my "advanced" age, you'd be surprised if I said that I love songs like, "The Way I Are" by Timbaland and "Apple Bottom Jeans" by Flo-Rida but those are the songs that get me off my apple bottom and walking quickly around my 'hood (if you knew where I lived, that word alone would make you giggle!) (Hint: the first season of "Weeds" is close. Yeah, we're not the OC but we might as well be.

    • How Accurately My Dreams Are Xpressed (MDX)

      • Acura MDX

        I know this will never happen but it's called a wish list for a reason, right? I want my new Acura MDX with the tech package.

        Let me tell you the sob story about why I don't have one right now. One weekend in July, 2009, my husband said, "You really need a new car. The van you're driving is 11 years old and stinks A LOT." He was being kind. Then he said, "Let's go get that Acura you wanted."

        I said with a giggle at the back of my throat, "The one with the tech package?"
        He said, "Yep!"
        I positively squealed but then realized I had to write a paper before I went out with a friend I hadn't seen in a year; I recanted my yes and asked if we could go buy the car the following weekend. My husband was incredulous but relented. After all, who the heck wants to willingly go and buy a car from a car salesman? (sorry to all you car salesmen out there)

        On Thursday, two days before I was supposed to get my new Acura MDX with the tech package (the car that actually listens to your commands, unlike my children), my husband was laid off after working for the same company for 10 years.

        I am still driving the same old stinky van with the dents, and my husband still doesn't have a job.

        Candied yams

        I usually love turkey but lately I've just been choking it down just to get to the good stuff, meaning all the carb foods. And I don't mean the white mashed potatoes because I believe I am seriously over them. But I do mean the candied sweet potatoes, the rolls with butter, and the homemade stuffing. I think I had 3 servings of each and just nibbled at the turkey. For the first time, too, we had a 20 lb turkey so I had better start nibbling faster!

    • Does PetSmart Have a Section for These Pets?

      • balancing elephant || Balancierender Elefant

        Dogelecat. It would be a combination of a cat which is an extremely independent creature that does what it wants when it wants to do it, and all the other times, it just sleeps. The elephant was selected because it remembers its family and seems to care. The dog because it's loyal past what any other animal would tolerate. Dogs wag their tales when they're drinking water, their tails wag when they hear your voice, and they wait patiently (sometimes) at the bottom of the stairs for you to come back down just so they can be in the same room as you.

    • How I Feel About Swear Words, Goshdarnit

      • Golden Gate in San Francisco, California

        I am definitely pro especially after reading a study where the people who used a curse word relieved more stress than someone who yelled, "Doodoo!" So, I highly recommend cursing as a way to relieve the personal pain and suffering of life's frustrations.

        However, I do not recommend cursing in front of a 3 year old like my husband did. Our daughter soaked up the meaning behind god damn it perfectly. I think my husband had yelled the curse after slamming a finger in the sliding glass door. She saved up that information to use at just the right time. On our way up to San Fran to visit grandma, my daughter was upset to learn that after being on the airplane for an hour, we had another hour on the Marin Airporter to grandma's house. She stood on her seat and yelled, "GODDAMMIT!" at the top of her lungs to the very full bus of passengers. I am sure her stress was relieved, but my face was purple from the sheer embarrassment.

        My friend's daughter yelled "F*%k" in the bank while waiting in a long line. Don't kids say the darndest things??
