I spent Valentine’s Day with my Dad and Carol, we had a delightful time at The Water’s Edge with a table overlooking the Ventura Harbor. #TwoMartiniMeal
I had my hair done last year and I mentioned to a friend that I thought the highlights were a little too blonde. He told me I looked 10 years younger, to which I asked (without missing a beat), “I really look 25?!?” That got a good laugh. #NotThatFunny
Every time I think I’m not “high maintenance” I remember how particular I am about ordering eggs in a restaurant. #HateCrustyEggs #PanTooHot
Or french fries for that matter #HateColdFries
And now that I think of it, “Crusty Eggs” might be a good name for a band…well at least a song!
I totally recognize the helpful and important function of social media for promoting one’s business. I no longer recognize social media for connecting with others. There are so many vile points-of-view, and ignorant posts that tear at my inner core, and so I do my best to no longer read my news feed. #SadButTrue
Also, the problem with those fake news stories spreading like wildfire is that most of the people spreading them think they’re helping!
Something to know about me. I don’t like to be poked. Not physically, not metaphorically and especially not on freakin’ Facebook!
I read an MSN article called, “50 Awesome Facts About Everything.” One of my favorite facts was that Selfies kill more people than sharks. Comforting about my chances of not getting eaten by a shark, but tickled we’re thinning the herd.
That moment when you’re caught watching one of those YouTube videos that make you tear up…and you’re supposed to be working.
May I just say that I never miss the opportunity to view photos of firemen with puppies or kittens. That’s just hot, and probably sexist. #ImOkayWithThat
Actually, I prefer the real photos of firemen who have actually saved animals than those from staged photo shoots, most likely for a calendar, with good looking, buff men with their jackets open, or shirtless showing off their sculptured abs, and…um…nevermind. #LikeEmBoth
Another fun fact? There are over a million ants for every person on earth. I totally believe this one.
I came across another article entitled, “116 Amazing Facts for People Who Like Amazing Facts” and number seven made me say out loud, “I KNEW IT.” (See previous post from 2015: https://acoupleofthings.us/2015/12/20/a-couple-of-things-75/)
VenturaRocks.com is coming up on it’s 10th anniversary. I seriously contemplated pulling the plug, but then I put out a call for help on financing the domain name, hosting, security, even my fee for hosting my radio show on public access radio, and the response was tremendous. So here’s to another year of supporting Ventura’s music scene! #VenturaRocks
