1.  I mentioned last September when my Aunt pierced my first ear (I was around 10 years old) that I promptly passed out.  It’s been awhile since I’ve worn earring because my right ear had closed about a year or so ago.  I went to the mall this past weekend to get it re-pierced and reminisced about when Sydney Rose decided she wanted her ears pierced, I went to exact same kiosk. We had decided to leave it up to her on if and when she wanted to have holes run through her body.  She was brave.  She shed a tear or two, but she was a trooper.  And for the record, I didn’t pass out this time.

2.  I have a couple of friends who are on a couple of those dating sites.  I’ve wondered about what I would put to talk about myself.  What do you think?

“I like short walks on the beach, long deep conversations, all kinds of music, puppy dogs, kittens and basketball.   Oh! And a nice rib-eye steak from time to time.”

3.   Did you hear about the South Carolina woman who spent the night in jail for failing to return a VHS tape she rented nine years ago?   She was released after appearing before a judge.  She rented Monster-in-law 9 years ago!  She went to the sheriff’s to file an unrelated report and her name came up red-tagged for an outstanding arrest warrant.

Note to self:  Avoid Pickens County, South Carolina.

4.  As I get older I have come to the realization that there is such a thing as too small a font.

5.  When did eating off a food truck become the thing to do?

6.  I’ve been bowling again since Mr. Mimiaga has decided to master the sport.  We’ve been going the past couple of Friday nights before I head out for music. I use to play in a league when I was in radio.  My average was around 130.  Still is.  I guess it’s like riding a bike.

7.  I’m back to trying to wear dresses at least once a week.  On my way into work one morning recently, my boss remarked, “You have sock lines.”  I KNOW!!!   I’m in the sun everyday for a half hour shooting hoops.  What I don’t have time for is sunbathing to even up the tan lines on my ankles!  It’s my personal version of a farmer’s tan.

8.  I hate it when someone Photoshops the head of an adult and places it on the body of a baby (or vice versa).  Creeps me out!!  And no, Jeff Hereford, you’re not the only one.

9.  Love this advice:  He’ll never change.  Let him go.

10.  There are certain people when you share exciting news, will always point out a fault in it or a downside.  I try not to spend a lot of time with them.

11.  I’m thinking of taking swing dance lessons.

12.  This pun is for Sydney Rose:  “Becoming a vegetarian is a huge missed steak.”
HAHAHA!!!

13.  From my favorite quotes file:  “Develop interest in life as you see it; in people, things, literature, music – the world is so rich, simply throbbing with rich treasures, beautiful souls and interesting people. Forget yourself.”  – Henry Miller

Thanks for listening.
