Some Hot Car Dancing

I have fallen in love with the Mighty Boosh and now lately I want to go out dancing. My current way of dancing is to Car Dancing. It's nice to know my boys, especially Noel Fielding (sexy bitch) from the Boosh like it to0!

Painful!!

I have gone through some things that I believed to be painful. I have also been told be more than one health professional that I have a high tolerance for pain. One kind of pain I hope I never have to endure is a burn (knock on wood).

The video of Michael Jackson accident in 1984 makes me cringe. I always believed that this incident started MJ's fall. Anyone that has had to deal with someone that is an addict know it usually isn't a quick thing, but a slow painful process and if they don't get help, then it ends the way he did, if that is how he ended.

Not Going to Cali (as if I thought I would)

I thought what the heck, I'll register for a chance to go to the Michael Jackson Memorial.

Yes I am a closet fan. I was always a fan and had the Thriller album. I thought he did some really stupid stuff, but no, I don't believe he molested anyone. Call me naive, but now that he is gone, I feel like I can admit the way I feel. (I know at least one person who is sighing if he's reading this.)
I have been very upset since he died because I see it as a part of my childhood and my life that died. I didn't realize how upset I would be, but now that it is looking like a "murder," I feel even more upset. I know I seem silly but I can't help the way I feel.

So I registered for the heck of it. I felt if it happens I wanted to be there. I received an email this morning from AEG (could it be) but it was a "so sorry, you didn't get a ticket." Just as well. Do I really think I would be able to fly to LA that last minute? Probably not.




So to everyone that is there, wish him well in the afterlife, if he believed in it(Jahovah Witnesses' don't believe in it until Armagedden). I hope if his kids are there they can see how much people loved their DAD and I hope that helps their recovery.

Joining Netflix Revolution


I finally joined NetFlix, mainly out of sheer frustration with Hastings. I watch Japanese Anime and sometimes I will miss an episode or two that make all the difference. My ability to see Japanese Anime is limited being in Wichita Falls and watching Adult Swim on Saturday Night.
I renewed my membership at Hastings so I could re-watch FullMetal Alchemist and try to fill in some gaps. I was doing fine and then I couldn't seem to get my hands on the 10th disk. I went back a few times to look and finally decided to ask the lady behind the counter about that disk.
She said they didn't have disk 10. Uh, OK. A 51 episode series and you don't have the dvd available for rent with 4 epidsodes. I thought I was being smart and suggested that they take one of the disks they have for sale in the Used DVD pile and complete the series. To my surprise, they don't do that. How freaking frustating!! I wasn't going to buy the whole series for four episodes.
So, I give in, NetFlix has it and we'll see how it goes. Supposedly I'll be able to see other Anime, so it should come in very handy. I must be one of the last people to finally give in, but it had to happen sometime.

My First Ikebana Project


In my efforts to relax my mind, one of the things that is supposed to help is Japanese Flower Arranging, called Ikebana.


My first attempt at it ended up ok, I think.



I just took some easter flowers from Wally World and gave it a whirl

Great Visit


I was lucky enough to be able to visit Larry and his boys Logan and Oliver this weekend. Logan was his usual precocious self and Oliver is getting to be a big boy and doing great. Logan is a bundle of energy and constantly wanting to talk (hmmm). Oliver is a pretty calm and happy kid unless he is hungry. I am so pleased at how well both the boys are doing, especially Oliver. Ollie rolled over for us three times, so who knows what he'll do next time I see him.
