Moonlit Jazz

A Thanksgiving picture with my parents…

1. Do you like to shop? Why or why not?
Yes! It’s fun fishing through my wallet for the cash or dropping the plastic on the counter. Nothing like that feeling. 😉

2. What was the last thing you purchased?
Four chairs, I think.

3. Do you prefer shopping online or at an actual store? Why?
Shopping at a store is much more fun. You get to see and touch the actual product and you’re out and about. It takes more effort and burns more calories walking around a store than sitting in front of a computer.

4. Did you get an allowance as a child? How much was it?
Yes. I think it was something like $10 or so a week. I can’t remember. I do know I got extra money if I got good grades. 😉

5. What was the last thing you regret purchasing?
Hmmm, that’s a good question. The Britney Spears CD? LOL! 😉

Richard – my husband, my friend, my honey. What would my life be without him? Not the wonderful place it is now! I love my husband. We enjoy the same things, but we also have different interests. He makes fun of me, he comforts me, he wants me to strive for more. I’m a lucky lucky lady to have him…

My family – My parents, my sister, my in-laws, my aunts and uncles, my cousins. I LOVE YOU ALL! I am utterly thankful to have such a family. They are all at once supportive, crazy, talented, and wonderful.

My friends – I am blessed to have people in my life I count as friends. They are the ones who laugh at my goofiness, listen to my stories, and share their own trials and tribulations.

The goodness in my life – I am glad I am one of those people who sees the good in things. That doesn’t mean I don’t complain. I do. Frequently. But I try and balance the different energies in my life. I want to experience each moment for all it’s worth, whether good or bad.

The last rose in the garden?

Tune on the MusicMatch: “This is the Night” by Clay Aiken

audio post powered by audblog

I’m toying with the idea of the audblog. I think it’s so cool! I can already imagine the possibilities. Maybe I’m at the ball park and I see my favorite player and I have him talk to my readers. Yeah baby! Or I’m at work and I want to post a quick message and I can just call it in. How groovy would that be? Hmm, very very cool…

Well, I think I need to get some sleep. Happy Thanksgiving to you all!

Just one more day of work, then it’s the long holiday weekend. How I look forward to it! 😀

Work was better than Monday, of course. Not as slow as we all thought it would be, but hopefully tomorrow (err, today) everything comes in early and we can kick back just a little bit before the long weekend. Next week will be hell week! 😛 But let’s not talk about that right now…

We watched Average Joe tonight. I didn’t think I’d like the Jason fellow, but when Melana took him on the date, I liked him. He seemed like a regular guy. And cute. 😉 He reminds me of someone I know. And I still don’t like Zach. Blah on him! If she picks a “regular” guy, I’d say pick Adam. He’s funny! But if she goes for the “above average in looks” guy, I’d go with Jason. Even though she did ask him if he was only into girls. LOL!

We have ants! YUCK! They started out with the box of stale donuts and they’ve been steadily invading our kitchen since. Ewww!

Just one more day. I guess I should go to bed now…

Tune on the MusicMatch: “Don’t” by Elvis Presley

Monday at work wasn’t so bad. I walked into the office and was pleasantly surprised by the sight of that cute deputy. 😉 Yeah, I get to work with cute guys. LOL! He’s cool too, which is always nice. During muster, we were talking about him. The sergeant just shook his head at us. I think he was amused. 😛

MY READERS ARE OBSERVANT 😉

Meesh – Joxer is groovy! He’s the main person of my most favorite Xena episode, “For Him the Bell Tolls.” I love the episode. Joxer gets to be a super sexy warrior… Wil Wheaton is a very talented writer. I like his stuff. I can’t wait to get my hands on his book. I missed it the first time! 😛 It’s so much fun reading his re-writes right now. He has such wonderfully vivid memories…

Krisann – I’ve already told you that “Brown Eyes” in my little writing exercise is based on the person you’re thinking of. He’d just be so much easier to write! Alas, I think I like “Blue Eyes” too much to let him go… And I knew I was going to be a “stalker” in that quiz. It was just too easy. LOL!

Sharon – It was totally cool seeing Zito on JAG. He did a splendid job! I was impressed. And he was so handsome. I like his dark hair all combed. Very nice. And you guessed it. 😉 Too bad I don’t get to be friends with him too. LOL! Hmm, maybe someday? (Wishful thinking!)

Amy – I feel very lucky indeed. I just think it’s nuts that my two fandoms have collided in such a way. Is it a coincidence, I wonder. Or is it just the beginning of something else? Hmmm…

SOMETIMES I WONDER…

My friend and I were talking about it today, the convergence of my fandoms. What does it mean? I feel a weird bubble of expectation building up inside of me. I can think of all kinds of possibilites. But will they merely turn into plot points for my stories? That could be a good thing. But I’d rather have an adventure or two. 😉

MAROON 5

Have I mentioned that I love this group? I do. And darn it, I could have seen them today in San Francisco! So freakin’ close!!! They had a show at night, but during the day they were supposed to appear at Borders at Union Square. I would have LOVED to have been there. I think it would be so cool to see these guys live. Their songs drive me to distraction. In a very good way. 😉

IN MEMORY…

Kodiak [pictured on right] was a good dog and we shall miss him. I think Trixie will miss him most…

Tune on the MusicMatch: “Sway” by Peter Cincotti

Sometimes I wish I can just say it. I get to chat with [“my friend”] and now he’s friends with [“man with wicked 12-6”] who in turn works with [“current hero of my story”]. In “real life” I say it all the time. I talk about it freely without consequence. It’s a real part of my life and it’s cool because I can talk about it.

But not here.

Sometimes it totally kills me! I want at the very least to casually mention it. As if it’s no big deal, even though I get that lovely giddy feeling just thinking about it.

I guess I’ll just say that I’m lucky.

And I’m sure this post makes no sense at all unless you know me or you’re very observant of my posts. 😉

What attracts people to you?

Romantic movie! You probably won’t star in a porno
anytime soon. You seem to be really into the
whole “love” thing…romantic sex
with perfumed sheets and candles all over the
place. You’re probably a hopeless romantic. You
value sex and respect your partner too much to
do anything like porn. AWWWWWW! <3
What kind of porno would you star in?
