i have been to my mans actual home one time. one time. yes you have read that correctly. we do not currently reside in the same city. he has been here several times, we have met on other common ground several times (over the last YEAR!!?? HELLO!!!), but i have only hauled my happy ass out there once. i am going back in just about a month, for just about a week.
i am already redecorating his entire home. not picturing his/hers towels, or someday throwing out that covered wagon coffee table (yes, that ugly, roy rogers one).
i am knocking down walls. i am dreaming up color schemes. i am turning spare bedroom into a walk in closet. i’m picturing the perfect built in to both house the soon to be purchased humungo plasma covered proton beaming flat screen TV and our prodigious collectible collections.I AM IMAGINING THE BEST PLACEMENT FOR FRENCH DOORS FROM THE MASTER SUITE THAT OPEN UP INTO THE BACK YARD.
dear sweet baby jesus. its sick. it is a sickness. i so miss being a homeowner that the mere suggestion of permency sends me completely for a loop. i have checked out home improvement books from the library. i will drive my man away with my incessant need to gut and refinish everything in my path.
DEEP IN THE HEART OF TEXAS!!

UPDATE: My man would like this pic added as he thinks it is a better one. Perhaps it IS better of him, but I look weird and kind of like my mother. Not that there’s anything wrong with the mom, but…. you know….

just off the plane and delirious

although i must say i question the footwear choices of the bridesmaids. just sayin’. additionally, i feel it should be the “lollita” heart shaped glasses, not pastel wayfarers.
It’s time for bed, just watching the end of the TV show, “Ruby”, on the style channel and i find myself getting annoyed.
Here’s what I don’t get, have never gotten. This most recent episode I have tivo’d has to do in aprt with this woman going to the GYN. The “lady doctor”. The gynie. Whatever. And all the hesitancy and fear involved. And she is close to my age and hasn’t been for 10 years.
OK. This show in particular has to do with a morbidly obese woman and her struggles in the world and I totally get that my experiences are not hers and that being that overweight is fraught with negative medical establishment associations.
HOWEVER, many women express this same fear and concern and utter dread of the GYN office visit. I have never understood this. EVER. And I took MYSELF to Planned Parenthood at age **hhmmmmhhcfff** when I became sexually active and took care of myself. It’s part of being a woman. Duh. I mean, I can name few people who could say they ENJOY going to get an annual exam but c’mon!!!!!
I just cannot and can never understand how someone can be so freaked out by their own body that they wouldn’t go to get checked up. I mean, can you SEE your own cervix? Even with a mirror and months of dedicated bikram yoga practice, this is difficult. It’s a DOCTOR. It’s not some random person getting a cheap thrill looking up into your vagina. Unless their name is Gwen. But I digress.
is that greg marmalard on the left?

Should there be a Michael Jackson butter sculpture at the Iowa State Fair this summer?
We appreciate the input of hundreds of people who have voiced their opinions, both positive and negative, on the issue of including Michael Jackson in the 2009 butter sculpture.
The ongoing discussion has created a lot of, well, ‘churn.’ Since everyone has an opinion about the sculpture, we’ve decided to put it to a vote and let Fairgoers decide.
The concept of the sculpture will be a celebration of the 40th anniversary of Neil Armstrong’s moonwalk on July 20, 1969. In honor of Armstrong’s “giant leap for mankind,” this year’s sculpture will include an astronaut, an American flag and a buttery rendition of the surface of the moon. Depending on the vote, Michael Jackson would be featured in a small side portion of the sculpture as the first pop-star to perfect and popularize choreographed moonwalking.
Thanks, Jeff!
