on the jukebox: “Baby I was Wrong” by Jennifer Hanson
Okay, I made my appointment. The earliest date I could get (besides this Thursday at 1300 hrs) was January 6. I think I can live with my tooth until then. 😉
And I don’t know why I worried about calling the dentist office. The office lady is sooo nice! She’s cool. And Husband likes the dentist and he doesn’t like going to the dentist at all, so that says something, eh? 😉
ROMANCE STORIES…
I bought a book of short romance stories set during the holiday season and even though I had already started the first story, I skipped to one of the other stories because the gal’s name was Valerie. Why is it that writers rarely use my name in their stories? I’ve probably read three (at most!) romance stories in which the heroine’s name was Valerie.
“Turning Up the Heat” by Susan Donovan is a story about Valerie, alone and all pretty for Christmas Eve. Her furnace is shot and a repairman guy has to come and fix it. Earl answers the call. It’s not until the very end that I realized that Val and Earl are a married couple doing some roleplaying. LOL!
Now here’s the very funny part: Earl is actually a baseball player. A relief pitcher for the Boston Red Sox, to be exact. I burst out laughing when I read that. How WEIRD!
It was a cute story. I should try and do short stories. 😉
POTC PICTURE OF THE MOMENT…
Because it isn’t always about Will Turner…
I think someday I’m going to put all my Pirates of the Caribbean screencaps up somewhere for everyone’s viewing pleasure. But I guess until then I’ll keep posting them here. 😀
COMMENTS…
No one has used my question box yet. 😛
Lauren, my in-laws actually live in Livermore, which is why we were on Stanley Blvd. this past weekend. I live in Salida (north of Modesto, south of Ripon), so you probably actually live closer to Jen than to me. 😉 Depending on where you live, I guess. LOL!
Sharon, when will our group blog be ready?! 😉 I can’t wait to blog there!
MUSINGS BEFORE GETTING READY FOR WORK…
I wonder if I shall hear that already sexy voice speaking in Spanish again today… It’s damn cold outside! According to weather.com, it’s 39 freakin’ degrees. Ye gods! Okay, to me, California born and bred, that’s cold… Karl Urban looks super sexy with the new haircut and I don’t really think he’s super sexy at all. I miss seeing him! I want to see him in person again and have him say something witty or look at me like he should know me. Awww… Must wrap the presents before the cleaning lady comes on Friday. Or else I have to put them somewhere… Our department is spiraling towards disaster and all I can do is keep my uniform clean, be at work on time, do my job to my abilities, then go home and not think of it. But can I say that some of the people, mostly in upper management, are jackasses?…
And if someone says, “I’m not racist, but…” then mimics an Asian person, doesn’t that mean the person is actually racist? Why even say something like, “I’m not racist, but…” when all you have to do is tell the story? Yes, that happened at the lovely French restaurant this past weekend. Jackass. Too bad I’m not Chinese looking, then I could have said something when we left. 😛 Ignorance, such a tragedy.
