Yesterday morning I was flipping channels.  There was nothing on & I was on a frantic search for something decent.  I came across some channel (which turned out to be ESPN) & there was a woman with REALLY big hair, bad make-up & groovy cat eye glasses.  Of course I stopped.  The loud woman with the Southern accent & bad hair was discussing Dr. Pepper chicken with the host.  I was completely mezmerized.  You would have been too.  Trust me.  The woman turned out to be someone by the name of Ruby Ann Boxcar.  She's got several cookbooks out.  Its all about trailer park livin' & SPAM.  Oh yeah, I gotta get these.

Currently, I feel like crap.  The temperature swings here always do that to me.  Well that & the fact that I often leave my humble cave without taking my jacket.  So now, I have my yearly "ickies".

My nose feels like there are two, albeit small, Oompa Loompas shoved up there & into my sinus cavities.  In retaliation, some of their wonderful friends have decided to rescue them.  Their first plan of attack?  To thoroughly sandpaper my throat.  When that doesn't seem to be working, a nice Oompa Loompa band plays in my head.  And quite loudly I might add.  I think the trombone players are facring the side of my head & spread out so that every slide jabs another spot.

I can deal with those things.  Apparently, the band hasn't formed an immunity to Excedrin Migraine yet.  However, they think its amusing to sit on my chest.  On occasion, it is turned into a trampoline which causes me to cough & hack.  They stop right at the point where I am about to puke.  How very nice of them.  Right now I wish I had the number of a rogue Oompa Loompa who could come in & take care of things.  Hell, I'd even settle for a negotiator.

Yes, that's right, I said snow.  I am also completely aware that I live in the middle of the desert.  However, the portion of the desert in which I am situated is in a valley.  All around this valley are mountains.  The most notable being the Spring Mountains & Mt. Charleston.

This entry is in the process of being moved to my "photo" blog.  You can find it here.

I've spent a better part of my afternoon/evening looking for victorian type Christmas graphics.  I haven't had much luck & its really ticking me off.  I thought I'd get a head start on putting together the Christmas stuff for my crappy little blog here.  But NOOOOO.  There are forces much greater & apparently more clever than I am conspiring against me.  It figures.

So now, the victorian idea may be scrapped altogether.  Sucks to be me somedays.  That means my little tired brain has to come up with something else.  Did I mention it sucks to be me somedays?  Well it does.

I want to learn to make blinkie things.  I like blinkie things.  All the blinkie things I see aren't things I'd want.  Not that I really know what I want anyway.  I just know that they aren't it.  Maybe I'm just too friggin' picky.  Who know?  Not me, that's for sure.

Really my searching hasn't been a total loss.  I did find some place that has Civil War era quilt designs.  Not something most of you are concerned with I know, but it gets me all giddy. 

So there is no witty entry for today.  Nothing earth shatterning.  Nothing that will make you think.  No naughty monkeys.

We just got back from lunch.  Thought I'd share this..... I saw a guy that looked like Edward Norton.  I wanted to lick him.

OK, it is in fact another day, so I will continue with the link sharing.  I had a perfectly good post planned in my head pertaining to the book I'm reading, blinked & forgot it.  So until my rusty brain remembers it, you are stuck with this.  I'm pretty sure this list will be useless flash type "games" & funnies.  Of course, I making the list as I go along, so who knows what will end up here.

I was going through my "favorites" earlier & thought I'd share a few links that I have tucked away.  You see, I have entriely too much time on my hands.  Time that could be spent doing something productive is actually spent looking for cracked out sites & naked men.

I recently saw what could have been the best commercial of the Christmas season.  Of course the key words there are could have been.  Let me lay it out for you.

There were several Christmas elves (I have to differenciate now otherwise someone might think I mean one of those cute boy elves from those movies I've never actually seen) were decorating an area with festive items.  You had an elf hanging garland & one putting out pillows (I think that was the Surprise! By Design elf or maybe the Christopher Lowell elf). 

Then, and this is the best part, an elf jumps out of nowhere with two daggers in his hand!  YES!  He was going to off his entirely too cheery partners.  I could see what was coming in my head.  Little elves in bad felt costumes running for their lives.  All you can hear are high pitched screams & the jingle of the bells on their tiny shoes.  The only thing that would make this any better would be if he was assigned by Santa to do this, gather the bodies & return them for an elf roast.  I was giddy with excitement waiting to see how this would play out on the television.

About that time my whole Christmas elf massacre dream came crashing down around me.  The elf wasn't holding daggers, but merely over priced candle sticks in gaudy holders.  Although I seceretly hoped he would bludgeon his fellow elves to death, I knew it wasn't going to happen.  My hopes & dreams had been smashed against the rocks of life.  I was deeply saddened.

P.S.  I just realized that my ability to spell correctly has gone on vacation.

I CAN'T SLEEP!  I can't stand when I'm like this.  I can't find anything to do.  Sure, there are plenty things I could be doing, but I am entirely too tired to do any of them.  Not to mention the fact that there is not a single interesting thing on television.  Stress sucks such ass.

I would bother to make this an interesting post, however, that would require using my brain.  Well, that's just not going to happen.  This entry is writing itself.  I have no real control over it.  So if his suddenly goes into a diatribe about mutant blue seamonkeys attempting world domination, please know that it really has nothing to do with me.  It is me, but it isn't me.  I'm too tired to care & sometimes my mind just runs rampant.  Ask anyone who has received an email from me in french concerning a monkey in a fez (because they are super cool when wearing a fez), music & world domination.

Yes, monkeys & world domination are recurring themes in my twisted little head.  So are naked men, but those thoughts aren't usually fit for public viewing.  Besides, I know (in some cases somewhat know) some of the naked men in question.  I'm sure Noodley & KTOAB wouldn't want the indiscretions that take place in my head involving them to be discussed in a public type forum.  OK, so Noodley & KTOAB aren't really involved in the indiscretions, I just thought it would be amusing to make them sick to their stomachs for a nanosecond.
