gym surprise

GUESS who goes to my gym???!!! (lol.. like it's my gym after not even a full week)
Cougar girl from Wednesday night at Karaoke!!!
I walked into the change room and was greeted with an enthusiastic "Hey!!!! How are ya ?" .... it was the boobs that gave her away... even at the gym.

oh.. classic quote from Wed. night::
Tim's dancing up a storm... doing the charlton or something all over the place.... Cougar takes his picture and loudly exclaimes "THATS going on the INTERNET!!!!"
ok.

Your eyes will fall out of their sockets.

When I was little my mom used to say that to me a lot...

I've been watching the Sopranos tonight (as a pre-new years celebration event).
It's been awhile since I've watched them... I'd forgotten how much I enjoy the show.
Little known fact:: In addition to my fascination with Lebanese men... though he's not one... I've a crush on James Gandolfini.

get moving or I'll bring my size twelves to your head

I've spent much of my new years eve day watching endless hours of Chopper... So far, I've only seen 2 new episodes.. not that they were new, but that I had missed them the first through fourteen times they'd been aired.
There's nothing like spreading Christmas cheer with a Santa-decked chopper.

I was so glad to see my friend L.Stew the other night.. we were trying to figure out the last time we'd seen eachother... because of MSN it didn't feel like it had been that long... but when we did the number crunching, it turns out we haven't hung out in about 3-4 years. Although, Stew and Kim are quite insistent that I threw a super bowl party sometime after the last visit that I can remember...well... at least, it might have been a super bowl party.. or a bowling party ... or a bowl party... was it a tupperwear party maybe?
who knows!
when is the superbowl?

SO... Wednesday night I got to see Stewie, then last night I got to see Kevinasaurus (aka. the original muffin) .. it's been a month of reconnecting.

What's in a name?

... that by which we call a rose by any other word, would smell as sweet....

I was thinking of changing the name of my blog this week... to refelct all that seems to be upon me. That being.. the embarassment or near embarassment that seems to follow me and lurks behind every corner.

(subject change)

narrow margin for error

pretty much the most embarrassing thing ever was just avoided... just barely... I'm just relieved there was no one there to witness it. I suppose if anyone had been there.. well then... it wouldn't have been avoided... it was the absence of witnesses that kept it just marginally embarrassing.

I have this old pair of jeans... well worn jean.. really well worn jeans. I've been promising myself for ages I'd be rid of them. They're slightly longer in the back than in the front, which means I catch them on random things, halting me in my tracks.
Today I finished up my errands, and went to hop into my car. I had with me two grocery bags and a small bag containing a new shirt for Norty (which is too small... it looks like a belly top on him). As I entered the car, my right pant leg caught on the hood release latch... but I was already lowering myself onto the seat! I heard a loud rip.... and looked down.

My pants ripped from mid thigh to mid fly!!! ACK!

Not only that. But I had to park the car around the corner from the house as the driveway was full...

know when to fold em'

last night I learned a very valuable skill.
last night I learned how to play poker.
it's all beginners luck they say, that or the fact that I'm a great pick pocket... one or the other, it still leads you to the end result... me:: being the winner (even after paying back all the chips I'd stolen over the course of the game).

um... my favorite part, may have been that point in time- where Crilly got all frustrated at us newbies because we were betting on EVERY hand... yeah, that's probably it.

soft

tomorrow.. the marshmellowafication process that has been taking over my body will cease.
remember I said I was spoiled by santa?
yes, I'm joining good life.

added link of fun

I mentioned this site before, but I'm adding a link under "fun stuff" in the side bar.
Please... go vote!

lazy days

Something I really like about the holidays and about being around family is the laziness it affords.... Yesterday I spent great quantities of time asleep on the couch... At one point I was dreaming about turkey... Next I was awakened, finding a chunk of turkey being held under my nose...
There's nothing like being with family and allowing yourself to be totally at ease.

I must admit I particularly enjoyed the orange juice and champaine in the hot tub.

We did a neat thing on Christmas eve together. Dad, Bthy-B and I went out to mom's grave site and placed a candle there... apparently it's a tradition in Port Hope to do that... there were lots of candles lit all over. It looked beautiful. Do people do this in other towns?
