This is so weird...

Okay, I was searching Amazon to see if they had any cute scooter themed baby stuff and found this...

The Cruizin Cooler!!!



Tell me something ladies and gentleman... Why? I mean seriously! Who could possibly need a cooler with a motor and wheels? Is it for if you drink too much of the stuff you're storing in the cooler and cease to be able to walk on your own?

If anyone knows of a good use for this please share!

The Greatest Commercial of the Year!



Okay, we have probably watched this video 20 times today and Nicky has not failed to announce the entrance of the wolf or crack up when he spits the bird out yet. I'd say it's a winner. :D

Crazed Hobbit Dancing!



Okay, I don't know if any of you catch Nick Jr...but there is this new show called Yo Gabba Gabba...which I hate six ways to Tuesday! But my little boy is more than amused by it.

This is from that show. I've never been more creeped out by a hobbit. LMAO This video really doesn't do it justice cause good old Elija has a crazed look in his eye that you just can't make out in this video...but here it is.

Wierd Searches that Found my Blog...

So I was playing around in Google Analytics the other day and found some "interesting" searches that led people to my blog. Of course there were the usuals: my name, misspellings of my name, my blogs name, but then there were others...

  1. resplendence publishing will write, resplendence publishing
    I wrote one blog asking if anyone knew anything about this company from dealings with them, and I get a lot of hits just from people searching for it. There was even a day when it was like third on the google search for Resplendence Publishing.
  2. onemonepia
    All I said was it was one of my favorite words. LOL
  3. unknown laws
    I have no idea...

  5. arkansas razorbacks its so hard to be humble
    Yes, Yes it is! Sorry we just beat NUMBER ONE RANKED LSU. :-D Not that I'm pleased or anything... muhaha
  6. dyeing a purse, how to dye purses, wine purse
    hehe Yes, I dyed my purse.
  7. freezer bread dough, freezer compressor doesn't kick on, how to let bread rise in fridge, will my dough rise in the fridge
    This was a very unpleasant experience, and I don't recommend it as a method of letting your bread dough rise...
  8. goth food
    Hmmm...I wonder what goth food is...
  9. punk goth- decorating bedrooms
    There seems to be a theme here...
  10. southern america tiny waist food
    This one cracked me up. No idea what I wrote that relates.
  11. torture the medieval
    It was research for Fiona! Really! *locks the door to the basement* muhaha
  12. viking yule cat
    This kitty still cracks me up.

Dang...it's gone! There was a really weird one when I was playing in there the other day! It had something do do with sexy women in socks... How that brought up my webpage I'll NEVER be able to guess, but it cracked me up!

I'm Learning to Knit!

I've always wanted to learn to knit as my attempts at crocheting have all failed mesirably, which makes me sad cause my Granny was an amazing crotcheter (is that a word) and I would really love to be able to make those adorable Granny square quilts. I thought they were so silly looking when I was a kid but now that I'm grown I think they are just beautiful!

Well anyway, I bought the Knitting Made Easy CD-ROM from Hobby Lobby and have already perfected...err...attempted the knitting stitch. Actually I keep ending up with these strange extra stitches and I have no idea where the heck they come from, but I guess I'll figure that out with time. I decided to wait until tomorrow to attempt the purl stitch. Wouldn't want to over work my poor little preoccupied brain.

This CD is fabulous! I lurv it! It's funny, because I have the same one they make for crocheting and have tried to prefect my techniques through that with absolutely know luck! Obviously I just wasn't meant to crotchet! Sorry you wasted all those hours trying to teach me Granny!

Oh well, I just had to share my new joy. :-D It's uber fun! I can't wait to learn to make mittens! Nicky really likes gloves! (I know, I find that odd too, but whatever makes him happy) So I'll simply have to knit him some mittens. :-D

But since he's sleeping, I'm off to work on Blood and Violets.

Good Night!

One of my favorite scenes from television EVAH!

Being a loud mouthed Southern Girl myself, I've always loved Julia Sugerbaker on Designing Women, and this is quite possibly one of my favorite scenes from the entire series.

This scene takes place right after the current Miss. Georgia World and another girl were just badmouthing Susanne and she overheard it and got very sad. Poor Susanne! And Julia comes in to put her in her place.

What a wonderful sister!

Seven Random and/or Weird Things About Me

I've been tagged by Lesley!

Here are the rules:

Link to the person that tagged you, and post the rules on your blog. Share 7 random and/or weird facts about yourself. Tag 7 random people at the end of your post, and include links to their blogs. Let each person know that they’ve been tagged by leaving a comment on their blog

This is much too hard! I have so many weird things I couldn't keep count! So I guess I'll do random!

  1. I am done with all my Christmas shopping except for the stuff for my husband - who is getting coal unless he is very nice ;) - and my little boy. I do think I know what I'm getting both of them though. I just have to find time when they aren't with me.
  2. I have a secret that I'm not tellllllllllllllllling. :-D
  3. I don't understand the people who pounce on their lawns with rakes in hand the moment the leaves start to fall! How can you not just enjoy walking around in piles of lovely colorful leaves!
  4. I'm an obsessive compulsive list maker. Oh yes, I am!
  5. I'm going to training in Word 07 tomorrow, and I'm uber excited about it! (Yes, I'm aware that makes me a pathetic nerd.)
  6. I'm having an uber mega craving for some Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory fudge right now and it's all Lishy's fault for showing me a picture of truffles!
  7. I have a dog on my feet, a toddler asleep in his bed five feet away, a cat laying on my leg, and another dog curled up next to first one. And there is a husband doing something geeky on his computer across the room. I needn't ever worry about getting lonely LMAO
I'm going to tagggggggg.....

Raven Halloween Hunt

I'm almost through with the Raven Halloween Hunt!

It's taken me almost a month! There are 60 authors' pages to hunt through looking for a graphic, and I only have one left! CJ England's. You can email the authors and ask for hints, but I want to exhaust all my hunting abilities before I do that. hehe

It's been really fun, and I've added WAY too many things to my To Be Bought list. So many books, so little time...and money. hehe

Requested Pictures: Pink Hair and "New" Purse

Lishy took these lovely pictures of my hair this afternoon. :-D


Nicky was very helpful during the photo shoot. :-D


Suuuuch a cutie!!!
Okay, he wasn't requested but now can anyone say no to that face.
And here is my purse! I should have done a before picture. Just think stained khaki and you've got a very good idea of what it looked like. hehe

Totally Uninspired but with Adorable Pink Hair!!!

Well my sweetie pie, Lishy, helped me chunk my hair fuchsia today! It looks absolutely fabulous. I think she must have missed her calling as a beautician. I can't seem to get a good picture of it. It almost glows in the light! Not in a neon way but like in a crystalline way, if that makes any sense. So I'm going to try to get Lishy to take a good picture of it. She is somewhat of a queen of photography.

So despite the fact that I can't even seem to write a decent sentence, I can at least look cute while I'm sitting here staring at the blinking cursor. :-D

RunningMap.com

This website is so much fun to play with!


I just put the route I took every day to go to my Danish language classes. It was 9 miles both ways. No wonder I was so skinny!!!

I'm really going to have to start riding my bike again. Whew of course Denmark is much flatter than Northwest Arkansas.
