Drowning in Bookmarks

Friday, September 28th, 2007

As a jobless bum I’ve had plenty of free time lately to work on cleaning up my computer…today is the day for bookmarks.

I have over 2,000…collected over a period of 6 years…

I’m barely making a dent in sorting these bastards.

Someone save me.

Yogatta Be Kidding Me

Wednesday, September 26th, 2007

For Christmas a few years ago I was gifted an Beginners Yoga tape. I was super excited about it and then completely forgot about it the next day (thank you A.D.D.).

In a moment of sheer genius I decided to drag it out and give it a shot today.

It’s currently playing in the bedroom and I’m here sitting at the computer — if that’s not an indication of how it’s going then I don’t know what else to say *chuckle*

That shit is hard…and slightly painful :(

Worst part is that the instructor on the tape is like 80 and can still tuck his leg behind his damn ear.

Apparently I’m not cut out for the “Potted Plant” and “Dying Dog” or what the fuck ever poses.

Anyone wanna join me for ice cream?

Flowers are the Laughter of the Earth

Wednesday, September 26th, 2007

A question that Meg Ryan absentmindedly asked in the classic internet romance movie You’ve Got Mail reveals my favorite flower of all time — the daisy.

“Don’t you think daisies are the friendliest flower?”

I found that I had to agree with her. When I think of it I’ve never been much of a rose girl (they’re so serious) and all the other flowers are nice but just really don’t do it for me. There’s something about the daisy makes me want to grin. They’ve got an almost wobbly nature to them when you take them out of the jar and they look so darn happy. I’ve found I can relate to the whole wobbly-happy thing…which is probably why I like them so much :)

I found out yesterday my favorite flower is teaming up with my favorite online flowers delivery service and is really going all out by joining in the fight against breast cancer!

ProFlowers will donate 10% of the purchase price of our Pink Ribbon Gerbera Daisies bouquet to Susan G. Komen for the Cure. Each bouquet is delivered with helpful information from the Komen Foundation about breast health.

How awesome is that?? I now know just what I’ll be sending out for all the flower worthy occasions that are coming up this year :) Go check it out! And hey isn’t it time to send your wife/mother/sister a bouquet of the friendliest cancer-fighting flowers around? ;)


Well Ain’t She a Peach

Tuesday, September 25th, 2007

Yaknow what really bugs me (seriously). Is when the day is going a-ok and I’m actually in a pretty good mood then someone comes along spewing negativity out of every fiber of their being…

Totally fucks up the vibe.

My Mother — The Alien

Tuesday, September 25th, 2007

As some of you know my mother — Momma Bug — has been living with us for the last few months while she shopped for a house. Well she finally found one and was in the process of closing on it but yesterday brought everything to a screeching halt.

I guess people tend to make mistakes…

Somehow in the part asking if she was a legal resident of the good ol’ USA the “NO” box got marked. Of course the lender had a slight problem with turning such a large sum of money over to some one at such a small rate *chuckle*

So my mother is, until further revision of the paperwork, an Alien. She’s not enjoying all the INS jokes being made — I guess they make her nervous ;)
