Too Bad

Read a short interview with the lead singer from the band Foster the People (Pumped Up Kicks) in Rolling Stone, now I'm bummed. Never saw this guy before, but now that I have.....He looks like someone I know who really annoys me. Trouble is, I can't think of who it is. Now when Pumped Up Kicks comes on the radio I can't stand it,  because this guy annoys me so much. Darn!

Those phrases.....

Phrases reality show contestants would die without: "Let's do this!" "You rocked that!" "Let's rock n' roll!" "You hauled." "You got this!" "Oh. My. God."

"Me"s

 I hate it when I annoy myself. I can't stop saying "me"s.
 It doesnt' even make sense. "Oh, yeah! Me's want some M&M's!" It would be bad enough if I said "Me wants some M&M's" but "Me's wants some M&M's"?!!
 Please. Stop.

Book review for Final Victim!

<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1491889.Final_Victim" style="float: left; padding-right: 20px"><img alt="Final Victim" border="0" src="http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1286896884m/1491889.jpg" /></a><a href="http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1491889.Final_Victim%22%3EFinal Victim</a> by <a href="http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/12469.Stephen_J_Cannell%22%3EStephen J. Cannell</a><br/>
My rating: <a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/218915086%22%3E4 of 5 stars</a><br /><br />
This book was a suspensful read from beginning to end. Dawson and Lockwood are compelling characters, and Leonard/The Rat/The Wind Minstrel is one of the most deranged killers I've read about in a while.

words

I've got another one! 'Associates' or 'Assoshiates'. I actually heard someone say 'Assoshiates' in an ad for a college this morning, so how wrong can it be???

Wordle

Thanks to Coffee Mate Brew Crew (You know I'm a member, guys) I discovered a fun new site. Wordle.com. Think of a topic, then make a collage of all the words you can think of. Fun! Fun! Fun!

Coffee Mate Brew Crew puzzle!

It took me 5:31 seconds to finish the Coffee Mate Brew Crew puzzle. Don't know if that's good or bad.;-D But it was a blast to do!

words

Can anyone answer this mind-boggler for me--Why do some people say 'annivershry'? Where does the 'sh' sound come from?
 And is it 'almond' or 'ahmond'? I can't stand 'ahmond'. And what about 'morgage' or 'mortage' for mortgage? I've heard it both ways.....

Cerra

I'm not going to be a salesman here, I've never been good at that stuff, but I recently got a kit from SheSpeaks from Cerra.com and I am loving this site! I never even heard of Cerra.com before this campaign, but it turns out it's this great site where you go to reflect on the things that are important in your life. There's fantastic scented oils (may I recommend Creativity which is yummy-delicious) and these dissolving note pages. That's what hooked me in. It feels so good to write down something that's been getting on my nerves, put it in the bowl of water, and watch it dissolve....aaaaaaaaaah! PEACE!

Maybe

This might just be my intuition talking but....Any guy who casually throws around the phrase "Bitches be crazy" isn't really boyfriend material.

Nostalgia train.......

The nostalgia train has left the station-can't stop thinking about my favorite foods from the 90's. Just thought about P.B. Max candy bars which were one of my favorites. Oh the agony! I wonder if I could whip this up as a recipe. It was just a a cookie bottom with some peanut butter and covered in chocolate. That's sounds doable.

Anything Old

After purchasing a 101 year old Ladie's Home Journal at a garage sale yesterday, I am in total nostalgie heaven. I truly am an old soul. I love going back and reading these articles, and the ads....! Love the garage sales! LOVE THEM!

Nacho Tostitios

Why did they ever stop making Nacho Tostitos??????????
It's a question I've been baffled by for decades! Those chips were better than The Bomb. They were The Big Bang. Please, Tostitos, bring back nacho tostitos in the yellow bag!!
