1. Are you familiar with the Hanon piano exercises? I somehow escaped that little bit of torture when I was younger and learning the piano; however, I recently decided since I can’t afford a teacher at the moment, I could at least try to brush up on some basic skills. O. M. G. My wrist hurts. Well, no, not really. If my wrist really did hurt ( Read more... )

1. “Mine, mine, mine,” is the refrain that we mainly hear out of the two year old these days. She’s hit that possessive stage where everything she sees and touches belongs to her. I admit I am torn between amusement and exasperation. I can’t help but laugh but sometimes I challenge her and give back her other favorite word, “No,” and watch her ( Read more... )

1. I was up late one Saturday night/Sunday morning and came across an ad for LaLaLoopsy dolls? Has anyone else seen them? They are hands down the creepiest thing I have ever seen marketed towards children including those dolls that would grow hair and poop like we had when I was little. They have button eyes and these weird, thin insectish-like ( Read more... )

OMFG. All My Children and One Life to Live have been canceled. ... I think I seriously had tears in my eyes for a moment there. I give General Hospital another year before ABC completely dismantles my childhood. Well, my television will forever be turned off during the middle of the day because seriously, who wants to watch another godforsaken ( Read more... )

1. I did a stupid thing and took two Tylenol PM’s to help me sleep last week. Big mistake. LOL. The next day I was groggy to the point of being light-headed. I finally had to take a long nap and I’m still feeling sluggish.

2. The other week I read The Hunger Games trilogy and fell in love. All three books were so damned good. However, I ( Read more... )

1. Tin Man, why do you have to be so awesome? I don’t know why; I don’t know how. But I am obsessed with this mini-series. Crap.

2. It has been beautiful in Atlanta for the last week. The temps are in the high 60s and low 70s. Yesterday, we reached 75. That was a hallelujah moment for me. It’s sunny and warm and just nice for once. Can we ( Read more... )

Honestly, I haven’t fallen off the face of the earth though to be honest, I kinda feel like it today. It was one of those beautiful overcast, dreary, and misty days that I so look forward to. However, I am dying to go to sleep. I would be in la la land right now except I want to see Human Target and Lie to Me tonight ( Read more... )

1. Why is it that every time you enter a Bath & Body Works store or visit their site online, you find yourself wanting to empty your wallet of all its contents just so you can revel in good-smelling goodness? I’m not saying you actually spend your life savings in there but you’re so damned tempted. I got a little travel-size tub of the Body ( Read more... )

1. Why is it that it always takes me a hundred years to watch a movie? I’m always so excited when I receive a new movie (bought or rented) but once I get it, it’s like the excitement takes over and I just can’t move. I always find a thousand other things to do. It’s a good thing Netflix doesn’t have a return policy ( Read more... )

Long time, no talk. And to be perfectly honest, I’m not sure how coherent this post will actually be because I am really tired. You know when your eyes start blinking twenty times a second and watering, you know you’re about 5 minutes from falling into a coma for the next 12 hours. Yeah, that’s me. Actually, I’m sort of stuck between sleepy, ( Read more... )
