Life would be much kinder if people would pull their heads out of their asses and think for one or two moments, yes? Yes.

Onwards and Upwards.

I’m working on chores today, getting the car cleaned out. I’m going to take Sambo to get clean bandages and run Bella through a car wash. It’s gorgeous here today, in the 70’s. . . it’s going away this week with a high of 50 on thursday…..brrrrrrr. Birthday weather. halakaleem.

I’m going to spend birthday weekend with the fam. They are coming in from Arkansas, sis and Wonderboy too. She and I talked thru holiday plans yesterday, and feel pretty good. I’m here for Turkey day. Bonusmom will be with her fam in Nebraska…I’m almost sad not to be cooking the meal this year. It’s my favorite one to do. My turkey gets better with each year, if I do say so myself! Anyway, no big huge bbday thing…I think we’re going out the next weekend to celebrate mine and a coworkers at the same time. Possibly to the Skirvin for drinks.

Ok, I have to get up off my duff and get a few more things crossed off my list. How’s the time change treating you? I love it. I commented on Kizz’s post how much I enjoy both of the changes, but I always want to snuggle down around 6:30 when it gets dark!

Huzzuah and Happy Monday to you all. I still love the Colts and George Clooney.

It was a great night at Homecoming. I love my school. I really truly do. It holds memories, and friendships, and discoveries, and joy beyond belief. Getting to go “home” and be back on the stage that I love, with my favorite people in the audience was an honor.

The performance went well. I coughed up a few hairballs for lines, but talked us back to the script. I got the giggles in the second act and just laughed through scene 1. I was crying almost as hard as Julie during the final scene…remembering my cast from ten years ago, remembering Patsy, our Ouiser who is no longer with us but was watching last night, I’m sure, thinking about all the changes in my life over the last ten years, where I’ve gone, where I am…all of that came gurgling out of me…

AS I WAS IN THE LOBBY GREETING MY FRIENDS!!!

Good grief. I’m such a dork. Felix leaned over and said “hold it together, wine is in your future.” So I put the kibosh on the meltdown and greeted the alums, and my friends who spent their Saturday night with me, and headed to the Par-Taaay.

Ma and Rog looked fabulous. It was so good to see them. Julie and her daughter who’s all grown up has us laughing. She’s probably still in the bed after surviving Homecoming. Marcia and her shaved head that has grown out so much…she is gorgeous.

Everyone asked about Chrome…so excited for you and your life and so proud. DO NOT roll your eyes and think “but I haven’t done anything”–I know you. Everyone sends their love. Misty Ashford was there for awhile too and says Hi. You were missed, and are deeply loved.

Kizz, Ma and Rog both asked of you and how you were. Rog keeps up with your blog sometimes. We were thinking about you sitting in YF last night…how was it?

Here are a few pictures for your pleasure. I’m tired. The wine was good, the laughs were even better. My face hurts today from all of the bliss.

Happy Sunday, GO COLTS!!!

Because I am here…just rushing around this weekend. Performance tonight. Will be back tomorrow sometime. Lot’s to do…

The social experiment is moving along…may go on a date next week after this show is over. I’ll keep you updated.

Pretty sure the one we’ve been using our powers on is a dud, and that the case is closed for good. Details later on that.

Don’t forget to set your clocks back tonight! One More Hour! That never sucks for me!

The funk has lifted, life is good, I’m out of here, and still loving Geroge Clooney.

Friday

Full day of work including putting check into the bank.–$more than the last paycheck.
One fat/phat Theta burger with very salty fries.–$8.00
One Hillbilly hair makeover that was a success.–$95.00
One viewing of Baby Mater. –baby onesies to be delivered soon–$more than 8 dollars

Friday night alone with the computer matching system, a bottle of very chilled wine and Julia Roberts in Notting Hill*—priceless**

**Priceless a.k.a. sad and ridiculous

I’m feeling sad and lonely today. Good LORD, it cannot be the PMS…or can it? I’d hate to go at least two weeks without that bitch arriving…so maybe. whatever.
I am feeling sad and lonely. No incredible insight into it. No deep dark rationale or secret longings to expose. Just a little sad. And a little lonely.

If only I could find my violin playing goat….and my wagon wheel coffee table.

That’d be real nice.

It’s Friday. On Fridays, I usually work pretty hard and by the end of the day want to play. Pretty Hard. Except that Fridays are my Thursdays. That still suck, folks. After three years, you’d think I’d be tuned into it properly. Not so much.

Tonight, however I’m going to be good. In a perfect world Mr-Fly-By-The-Seat-of-My-Pants would call me and say, hey how about doing something tonight. . . as stated in the previous post where Ugly Betty was getting her groove back as I stood by watching hopelessly, it’s not a perfect world. Still, I need a low key evening of hydration and rest. Working a half day tomorrow then the Steel Mags staged reading tomorrow night.

This performance is in conjunction with Homecoming. Now, when I was at school some ten years ago, it was just another weekend for the blue hairs to visit. These days, it is a BIG DEAL. All caps. My friend, who is also in the show with me, is the fairly new Alumni–person,officer,manager,whatsit. She is literally about to collapse. So stressed out. I feel badly for her!

On the upside, Ma and Rog, my other parents, (Chrome’s other mom as well) will be in town. They are driving up from Ft. Worth today, but I won’t see them till tomorrow. There is a function for the alumni after the show called AfterGlow. That is my favorite thing. Apparently everyone gathers at the Best Western for an overflowing amount of cocktails and memories. Pretty sure I’m gonna skip it and hang with the fam.

BonusMom is still away. She should be back on Sunday. It’s been ok here by myself. I haven’t been scared or anything. It will be nice to have her back.

There was just an advertisement for tonight’s local news on tv. Apparently they are doing a story on animal acupuncture.

Huh.

Ok. that’s it for me. Going off to read and comment a bit. Happy real Friday to you all! I’ll be brief this weekend, but I’ll be here, writing to you and loving George Clooney.

All Hail Baby Mater!
All Hail Baby Mater’s Mama!

She finally bingo’d at 6pm. She got the inducing drugs at 9:30 this morning.

THAT, my friends is one long fucking day!!!

went to dress rehearsal, it was fine. Easy breezy. Home with a very delicious dinner of anti weight watchers porportions. Curled up on the couch with Sambo on my lap, KikiMama on the back of the couch. Relaxing with Ugly Betty and company.

I’m off to read some blogs and to comment. Comment, being the operative word. I know you people are reading…here at the circus. Feel free to leave a comment ANYTIME!! Keep me compnay!

ok. it’s a sad day in my life when Ugly Betty is getting more action than I am. Sigh.

Let NaBloPoMo begin!!!!

Today is a jam packed day, and not just for me. My friend and pseudo sister is giving birth to Hudson Dean sometime today! The world needs more Scorpio men, to love and be loved by our daughters and granddaughters and neices. His little brother has been, for some time, calling him Mater Towtruck. From the movie Cars. So, in honor of Jack Ryder, Welcome to the world Baby Mater!!

I have a little bit of work today then off to dress rehearsal. The chimney fixer guy comes to the house today prepping the fireplace for the winter. I don’t have to be here, so when I get home tonight all should be well.

I’m off to read your blogs and to comment! Huzzuah and Happy November! (my power month! all good things for the next four weeks! All good things)

Pretty sure it’s G.C.’s power month too…even though his birthday isn’t next weekend.

It was a good 2.4 loss today. Huzzuah! I think, we’re standing at a total of 27.8 pound loss. Hoo-fuckin-ray.

In other news, was 36 dollars short of making my commission today. ONE women’s haircut. Yesterday and today fell apart, no shows, cancellations, postponements. What a crock. I almost had it, a color correction on this freakin hillbilly lady, but didn’t have the time, nor the management present to go ahead with it feeling secure. Oh well, right? It is what it is. I feel a little panicky because I really want to buy my house w/in the next 5 or so months, but so far haven’t managed to save much moolah. Must focus on getting referrals up and do more color. Can do.

The social experiment is going well…I’m pretty sure I’m not signing up for another month though…we’ll see. There are two that I’m “chatting with” Pfffffft. I shouldn’t’ pfffffft, I shouldn’t scorn or mock, I asked for this. I want a date. I want conversation and excitement and a hand to hold. How the hell am I going to find it sitting here on the Frontier with the cats and my cold Miller Lite? eh? Ok. You’re right. I’ll email them back. I’ll keep “chatting”

But The One I really want to “chat with”. . . . I see his face very clearly. A few of you, and you know who you are, know who I”m talking about. let’s just all join cyber hands and use our power for good and get my G.D. phone to RING TOMORROWWWWWWWWWWWWW! or FRIDAYYYYYYYYYYYY!

let me have another sip of my beer.

Sambo is doing fine. Many thanks for the well wishes, the comments, the texts. We love you right back.

Tomorrow is dress rehearsal for Steel Magnolias. I work until 1:20 or 2, then haul it to chickasha and hopefully am home in time for Ugly Betty and Greys. I don’t know what I’m excited about, I have only seen one ep of the season, due to rehearsals etc. But it would be nice. Then I have Friday night off, then Saturday work till 2 and have the performance that night. I’m staying there so as not to have to drive back late…that’s my weekend thus far.

Ok. Enough about me. How are you? Do you remember that tomorrow begins NaBloPoMo? Are you ready? Do you remember that i love George Clooney? He activates my Yummy.****Totally stole that from tonight’s ep of BigSexyMoney.

Can you believe it’s here? Crazy. I’m not dressing up this year, just going to say no thank you to weighing in in costume! I hope you have a grand last day of October. I watched It’s The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown last night to get into the mood. The cast of Young Frankenstien, set to open on Braodway soon, is going to be on the Today show this morning. I love watching all the tv people in costume!!

Speaking of Young Frankenstein, the NYC Theatre trip I usually go on thru my college is seeing that in May. Anyone interested should check it out and sign up! It’s a great way to see the city and some great shows!!

Have a great day. Eat some candy, scare some kids, remember I love George Clooney.

Kizz asked for a cup of healing for her forehead. I thought I’d brew up a steaming cup of Pacy for her to sip on tonight. Careful sis, it’s hot! Better blow on it first!!!

Recent news has him joining the cast of Greys Anatomy…thank GOD, something other than that whiney bitch to look at!

Enjoy Kizz. Sip slowly to savor the sweetness.
