Manic Monday

Quick! Off the top of your head list 4 words to describe you today, just as you are right now.
(It could be thinking, feeling, looking, etc.- use your imagination.)
Tired, Melting, Busy, Restless

If you had an extra hour in your day today what would you do?
Just kick back and relax with a bit of Michael Schenker on the speakers.

When is the last time you got lost and what happened?
I got lost a couple months ago when I took my son and his friend to see the Naruto movie at some mall over 50 miles from home that I had never been to before. Coming home, I took the wrong turn out of the parking lot and ended up going the wrong direction on the highway. There were a lot of colorful words used until I found a place to turn around....
Eventully I found my way back to the mall and got myself headed in the right direction!

I Wish...

That I could afford this, because this is SO true...

You Should Stay in Shape With a Personal Trainer

You definitely want a better body, but you don't know where to start. And it's all so overwhelming, you tend to lose motivation easily. A personal trainer can help you get the body you desire - even if you have a long way to go!

How Should You Get Your Curves In Shape?

The New Guy

The Critter Country animal Farm got some new animals since the last time I was there. What was that, a whole two weeks ago?!

This one is my favorite new one...



I can't remember what he is called, but he's so cute that I wish I could've taken him home with me!

A Blast From The Past

When I was a kid, I used to rush home from school to watch this on The Paul Shannon Show



Kimba The White Lion

I haven't seen it in years, so I was pleasantly surprised to find episodes on DVD for a mere dollar.

Manic Monday

Have you planned your funeral and/or written your will?
I have nothing of importance to leave anyone and I really don't care what they do with what is left of me after I'm gone, so the answer is NO...

Do you carry an umbrella when rain is forecast or do you just risk it?
I don't bother with umbrellas. I always lose them. Alittle water never hurt anybody.

How bad is the traffic in your town? Does it bother you or do you take it as it comes?
I live in a small town, so there is no real traffic, but there can be some annoying tie ups between 3 and 5 PM, especially near the hospital. ARGH!

Thought For The Day

The snallest things that we do each day can have a tremendous effect on the lives of others without our even knowing it. One small kindness, one thoughtless cruelty...

So, let's all try to strive for the former.

The Wisdom Of Blogthings

You Should Drive a Red Car

You're the type of driver who isn't afraid to be the fastest on the road. You have a lot of energy built up, and you tend to get your adrenaline fix from driving. Moving at hyper speed, you tend to be annoyed with slow drivers and slow people. Life's too short to be slowed down by someone else!

What Color Car Should You Drive?

Of course, I actually DO drive a red car...

I'm So Tired

My best friend and I had a disagreement today.
It's funny, we've been friends for several years and never really had this happen before.
The nice thing about it is that rather than pushing each other away, we talked things out and reached a reasonable agreement.
I'm not used to that. It takes a lot out of me, but it was worth it...

Thursday Thirteen

Let's make the world a better place!

Thirteen things that would be illegal if I were Queen Of The World

1. Racism. It's just disgusting!

2. Homophobia. Much the same as with racism, it is just foolish.

3. Animal cruelty. Offenders would be punished by being sbjected to the same cruelties that they inflicted on their helpless victims.

4. Stupidity. Offenders will be allowed to experience the full effects of their stupidity. No excuses accepted!

5. Hatred practiced in the name of God. I'm certain that Jesus, Mohammed, Buddha, and any others you can think of would approve.

6. Intolerance. We are all unique. Let's embace that fact by tolerating each other's differences. You don't have to embrace every difference, just tolerate it.

7. Stereotypes. These shall be outlawed because they are so easy to fall into and cause people to give up much of their own special uniqueness.

8. Religious fanatacism. Faith is a personal thing, a good thing, but fanatacism definitely is NOT because it usually leads to intolerance.

9. Excuses. Not to be confused with reasons. There is a difference...

10. War. Any truly civilized people should realise that killing one another is no good way to resolve political differences.

11. Greed. If it were eliminated, poverty, hunger, and homelessness would shortly disappear as well

12. SPAM! Not the luncheon meat, those nasty "we can enlarge your penis" emails....

13. Lies. They're useless after all is said and done. The truth always comes out in the end.

This is just too cute!

The Monday Mud Bath!

Looks like fun, doesn't it?

Something That Has To Be Said

This is the cover of the Scorpions' Lovedrive album...



Not this!



Bands shouldn't have to change the covers of their albums because a few prudish morons take offense.

If it offends you, don't look at it.
And for crying out loud, don't buy it. If you find the cover offensive, you most certainly will think the same of most of the songs....

GAH! Prudes offend ME.

Green Eyed Lady

It's time for another blogthing....

Your Eyes Should Be Green

Your eyes reflect: Striking attractiveness and danger What's hidden behind your eyes: A vivid inner world

What Color Should Your Eyes Be?

This is wherein all of my problems lie...

MY EYES ARE THE WRONG COLOR!!!

I have boring brown eyes.

Tasty!

I suppose that I should apologize to my cat for doing this...



I just couldn't resist!

Feeling Inspired!

As I drove around on my route today, I had a new song idea knocking around in my head. I really want to go with this one.

The Title: I Won't Be Broken (This Time)
The Inspiration: Michael Schenker (Of course!)



It's still in the VERY rough stages, but I'll keep you posted...

Manic Monday

What is your most despised household chore?
Cleaning the toilet! EWWWWW!

You'd have to be a real freak to like that!

Pick out the most important item in your wallet/purse and tell why it's important to you.
Well,obviously my cash and credit cards are awfully damned important, but I don't think that's the kind of thing you're asking about.

I DO keep my copy of Thank You 3 in my purse...



I seldom listen to the actual CD. I have it on my MP3 player, but looking at it tends to pick me up when I'm feeling miserable.

What was your first car? What was your favorite car when you were young?
My first car was a tan 1974 Ford Mustang II
The special tenth anniversary model
I loved that car. It was nine years old when I bought it and it lasted me for ten years. Never gave me a lick of trouble. Id probably still be driving it if the frame hadn't broken.

AS for my favorite cars when I was a kid, what can I say? I'm a child of the 60s. I shall always have a special place in my heart for Ford Mustangs and Chevy Camaros...

The Daily Giggle

'Cos I could use a giggle about now...



That's my silly little Mew!

Should I Decide to Polish My Toenails...

Which I seldom do...

Your Toes Should Be Black

A total rulebreaker (and heartbreaker), you're always a little punk rock. Your flirting style: Wacky and a bit shocking Your ideal guy: An accomplished artist, musician, or writer Stay away from: Preppy guys looking for a quick bad girl fling

What Color Should Your Toenails Be?

I guess I'd better bust out the black nail polish, 'cos this is so very true...

The Wisdom Of Knuffels

This is a Knuffel...



You can get your very own free one to feed and play with here.

Knuffels will say many wise things to you.

Here are some of the bits of wisdom that my Knuffel had for me:

"A survey has revealed that 9 out of 10 people like Chocolate. The tenth lies."
"But why's the rum gone?"
"Time is an illusion, lunchtime doubly so."
"Do lunch or be lunch."
"Failure is not an option -- it comes bundled with Windows."
"Be poor. It's cheaper."

Now go and get one for yourself and see what words of wisdom it has for you!

It's been a while since I've done a Schenker obsessed thirteen...

Thirteen things that I'd Like to tell Michael Schenker

1. I love you, just the way that you are...

2. You can be honest without revealing too much. There are some things that everyone doesn't need to know.

3. I understand you better than you might think. We are two of a kind.

4. Before you let yourself fall for a woman, ask yourself if she'd still care for you if you had nothing and no one knew your name. If the answer is no, run away as fast as you can!

5. In case no one has informed you, gratitude is NOT releasing an album called Thank You.

6. You know, I could sell copies of Thank You 4.... on the street corners for you. You really need to get that out there more pubilcly. People like it. They just don't know where to get it.

7. You are a lot stronger than you think you are. Look at all you've survived. You can make it through.

8. Don't let people walk all over you. The last time I checked the word "welcome" wasn't printed anywhere on you.

9. You are a beautiful person, inside and out. Don't hide it.

10. Don't let the assholes get you down!

11. Bella Piper is not a witch. She's a BITCH!

12. Always remember that the people who really care about you will understand. The rest don't matter.

13. Have I mentioned that I LOVE YOU?!?!

The Godess SheSchenker

You Are Artemis!

Brave, and a natural born leader. You're willing to fight for what you believe in... And willing to make tough decisions. Don't forget - the people around you have ideas too!

What Goddess Are You?

Just Another Suicide

Inspired by the UFO tune...



Poor kitty!

Doctor Doctor
