Random Tuesday Thoughts!

It's Tuesday! Pop on over to Keely's blog and join the fun! Just click the cute little box below.

1. I HATE not having a Dunkin' Donuts around here! They should get rid of the commercials for them in this area since we don't have any. It's like torture!

2. This guy is so unintelligent I don't even have words . . .

3. This Thursday night the ladies from our church are getting together at Chili's to have dinner and to do and Ornament Exchange. Sounds like fun. However, I think it's a bit early. Seems like we should at least wait til next month. Oh well. Now, do I dress Christmassy???

4. McDonald's often has special milk shake flavors for the different seasons/holidays. Shamrock, pumpkin, egg nog. I love the Shamrock. Actually I love them all. My question, however, is this. Why don't they do the same thing with their iced coffee? I would love to have some pumpkin iced coffee right now.

5. My Kiddo has been on a Gilligan's Island kick lately. Any of you have a three year old who watches TV shows from the 60's?

6. Has anyone ever been to Portland, Oregon? Anything interesting to do there? (Or maybe things to avoid?) I'll take any suggestions I can get. Thanks!

7. Went to see Couples Retreat this past weekend. I really liked it. The more I see Vince Vaughn the more I like him.

Happy Tuesday!!!

Anyone Hungry?

This is just a little piece from my Random Tuesday Thoughts this past Tuesday.

Why are none of my favorite restaurants anywhere near where I live?

I may not always be able to afford Red Lobster but it sure would be nice if I had the option when I could afford it.

What about Cheddar's? They have amazing food and awesome prices but the closest one is two hours away. Would it really be so hard to build one around here?

Dunkin' Donuts??? Not exactly a restaurant, I know, but still. I Love Dunkin' Donuts. So yummy! I crave them occasionally. A nice donut and an iced coffee. (Although, to be fair, McDonald's iced coffee is better than Dunkin' Donuts. I think)

What DO we have here? McDonald's, Pizza Hut, Subway, Sonic and Braums. Also a couple not very good at all Mexican restaurants. In the next biggest town over we have those that I mentioned just now and Taco Bell, Arby's, Burger King and Chicken Express. These are pretty much all fast food of course.

We do have Applebees, another icky Mexican place called TaMolly's and one excellent Chinese Buffet.

This makes it difficult to find a place to go eat when you have a girls night out. (That's tonight, by the way! Yay!) I think we decided on Chinese.

So the plan is: Leave whenever we can! Catch a movie at about 4:30. Then enjoy our Chinese buffet dinner for however long we want!

It's been a LONG time since I had a girls night out!

1. Leverage is over until January. What am I going to do??? Watch re-runs, that's what! The good news is that NCIS and The Mentalist start SOON. (Plus I get to watch Josh Gates on Destination Truth on Wednesday night. I know they never really find anything but he's such an entertaining host.)

2. Rina was supposed to come today. I was so excited to see her today but, they changed their minds . . . they came YESTERDAY! It's so nice to see her again after so long! Now we shall commence with the talking, shopping, movies and eating until we pass out!

3. Kiddo's birthday party is Saturday (actual birthday is Sunday). Can't believe my baby is going to be three. When did that happen?

4. I didn't watch the VMA's but when I got on Twitter the next day there was quite a buzz. So I watched THE clip. You know the one. That stupid idiot Kanye West interrupting Taylor Swifts speech! How stupid! I felt so bad for that poor girl, I just wanted to cry. (To be fair, he was on Leno's new show last night and he did "apologize.")

5. WHY are none of my favorite restaurants anywhere near where I live???? On that note, if you ever get the chance to eat at a place called Cheddar's Eat there! It is absolutely excellent!

6. "So you're tired and you're beat and you worked all week and you need a place you can let it go, where the girls go wild and the boys play hard and you need a little more than just the radio. Well here's your open invitation, with just a couple regulations. Let me warn you son, only come to have fun, we don't take kindly to serious. So leave your troubles at the door, unless you want some in here. Welcome to my house, buckle up tight." (House Rules, Christian Kane) Could someone please tell me where this guy lives????

7. I'm making a cake for a birthday today. A birthday of someone not in my immediate family. I'm excited and kind of nervous. She's going to be 11 years old and she wants green icing with green decorations. Hehe. Pretty basic!

8. Dan Brown's new book "The Lost Symbol" came out today!!!! I'm and so very excited about this!! (Of course I'm going to have to wait until at least Friday, possibly later, before I get my copy.
