Fifteen more days of VISTA! Grrrrrrrrrr!

So, idiot savant that I am, yesterday I get a message that this Gateway, with VISTA, is out of room, and they were not talking about my house.  That, I could understand. 
I began looking at what was on the computer, as hardly anything installs on this VISTA.  But, guess what?  I had two full versions [...]

Ivan pacicevic, who are you????

Sorry about that last post, but we cannot be funny all the time.  “We” as in us, you and me, and not as in “We, the Queen” or anything.   But, I am all done doing my own yelling bad behavior now and I have a question.
Just who or what is ivan pacicevic and how did that [...]

To all you stalkers out there

There are two people in our family who are just so funny that you love to be around them and often the comment is heard, “if we could get Sharon and Carol together one day, we would die from laughter.” 
Sharon lives in Indiana and Carol in Wisconsin, so it has not happened yet, but Sharon [...]

My mother is a poet! I am not!

Mom loves the sound of words and putting words together to rhyme.

It always makes me feel sad to be in a restaurant and see a parent [...]

Listen up, AOL!!!

I am on AOL dial-up.  The price is right, at $10.00 a month, and it really does not matter.  I am one of those rural people who is waiting to catch up to the 21st century.  Our phone lines, literally, become party lines when it rains.  There is no high speed.
You can be on the [...]

Incredibly Biased Film Review – Julie – Julia

I do not remember watching Julia Child.  I think I presumed I would not like her, and that she was rather ’stuck-up.’   Never presume!

The Julia Child, played by Meryl Streep, that I saw on the screen is the most delightful woman who finds joy in everything.  For this Julia, eating fish is an orgasmic experience.  [...]

Finding a good beautician.

Xup had a great blog on First Impressions, First Impressions « XUP, and mentioned first impressions in choosing hair dressers.
Since, I have an eternal problem with hairdressers, I figure maybe this is my problem.  First, and I do not want to appear bigoted about heavy people, as I have been one of those half my [...]

11:48 pm, I just noticed

Someone stole my links.  I had links on my blog and they are gone.  How do things just disappear?
The list to do when I have had a full nights sleep is growing:

Reinstall text-to-speech
Find my links and put them back on my blog

By 8:30 am, I will have a very long depressing list
