Happy Birthday Paddington!

I was informed by J today that it's Paddington Bear's 50th Birthday!!! I LOVE Paddington and there are so many memories wrapped up in him. He made me love London and marmalade. Seriously, after Paddington, I would want to eat Marmalade sandwiches so i could be just like him. But this is another memory that I want to hold on to. Happy Birthday Paddington!

I Love Bacon

So it seems that there has been this huge fascination with bacon on the internet lately. My one true love is ham but I do enjoy a good piece of bacon. I was listen to one of my podcasts Jawbone Radio and they had a whole show about bacon. I am really really craving bacon. Len even made a haiku about bacon that will become my excuse for eating bacon.

Sizzling in the pan.
Ready to give heart attack.
Damn, you smell good though.

Yea, I might have to say that haiku every time I sit down to a nice steaming pile of bacon. I used to like bacon behind sausage but after so many disappointing times with sausage, bacon has replaced my second place. So join in with me and say, Yay Bacon!

My Sister Went Hangliding!

She did!!! And it must have been awesome. I love how she is doing all of the things that she wants to when she's young. I would LOVE to do that but I have things I'm saving for and everything. If you want to see the pics go to

So I am so proud of my sister! Next thing you know she'll be base jumping off of the Statue of Liberty. Grats Dee!

This Song is Freakin' Timeless

Baby you are so right, this song is timeless. I was playing this while I was at work and it brought back so many memories. This song will still be good 30 years down the line. And my Dad says rap has no lasting value pffft. So you all enjoy it. I might make it a series.



And here's a link to another oldie but goodie:

"I'm holding the mic like a grudge!" Great stuff

Here's another one....video along with link to the lyrics here. I love how rappers back then could say so much with so little words and such small fanfare. Videos didn't need to cost millions of dollars to get a point across.




I remember this video!!! pure hawtness

Happy Birthday Mom!!!

I just wanted to give a B-day shout out to my wonderful, beautiful mother.  I won't tell her age but trust me, she doesn't look the age she is.  Lucky me for having such great genes.  I love her and even though she's not in town at the moment I just wanted to wish her a happy birthday.  You are the best mom in the entire world!!!  *hugs and kisses*

There's Nothing Wrong With Driving

The title of my blog is something that I'm trying to convince myself of. And it's not me I'm worried about while driving, it's other people. A friend of the family died in a car crash recently. I didn't know him well towards the end of his life but it still hit me kind of hard. He was younger than I was. Then, my mom was in a car wreck the other day. She's fine but it still kind of shook me up. Now, J is going to be driving to Florida tomorrow. I know my fear of him driving is irrational but I'm worried.

I'm not worried about his driving ability. It's the other nuts out there that I don't trust (man I sound like my dad.) I am trying not to worry, I just want him home safe. I know it's just recent events that have me like this but I'll be worried about him all the same, as I know he would be worried about me. A part of my soul lives with him. I want to be sure that stays intact. It's going to be bad enough not waking up beside him.

Who's the Best? J's the Best!

So J surprised me with tickets to Mama Mia on the 12th of November. How excited am I? Soooooo excited!!! I totally wasn't excpecting him to get them for me. And the best thing is...after we get done with that, we get to go get Wrath of the Lich King and have our four day weekend. I am so excited and I just really really really want it to get here. He is so loving and thoughtful. I love it! So now I just have to sit on my hands and wait until then. Can I make it? I'm not sure. I love you baby!
