Random Tuesday Thoughts

Happy Tuesday!! Are you feeling random? I sure am! If you want to share your own random or just read others, grab the box and join the fun at Stacy's!

1. Today is Kid's birthday. He is five years old today. That's a whole hand! That's a big deal!

2. Our McDonald's is money hungry or something. Every other McD's has Small, Medium and Large iced coffee's. Our McD's has Medium, Large and Extra Large. However, the XLarge at our McD's is the same as a large at any other McD's. Strange.

3. I ordered an extra large iced coffee this morning. At the window I was handed a "medium" (Which, at any other McD's would be a small), umm. I said, "Did I not order an extra large?" She told me that the other lady only put medium on the display. However, she traded it out for an extra large. Extra large for the price of medium. Nice.

4. I planned to put a Sean Bean (because I love him) movie in my DVD player today while I do laundry and party prep. However, Syfy had other plans. There is a Destination Truth marathon on today. LOVE this show. Josh Gates make me happy. :)

5. Taking Kid to school today I saw a man at a stop sign. He was in a very nice black car and wearing a suit. You don't see a lot of guys in suits around here. There's just not a lot of jobs that require suits. I miss seeing guy (and girls) in suits. When I lived in Pennsylvania there were suits everywhere. Where, oh where, is civilization?

6. Lion King 3D tonight? Maybe. It's possible we'll try to go this afternoon for Kid's birthday. Since his party is Saturday we wanted to try to make this day a little special and not just like another day.

7. I made cupcakes last night for Kid to share with his class for his Birthday. There were Very happy kids when I walked into that classroom this morning.

8. On that note I'm going to gain so much weight. Cupcakes, Birthday cake, birthday party food. Around here the "Holiday" season starts with Kid's birthday. Kid's Birthday, Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas.

9. Party on Saturday, then guess what? I can start the Autumn/Halloween decorating! SO Excited!

I think that's enough for now. I don't want to bore you any longer. Have great Random Tuesday!!

Random Tuesday Thoughts!

I'm linking up with the other Random Tuesday Rebels over at Stacy's place! If you want to check it out than grab the Random Rebel box and join us!

1. Skipped TKD last night because my instructor hurt her arm and she wasn't there. Her Husband was filling in for her. I'm not a fan of his teaching. He sort of makes me nervous. Also, he tends to assume we know a lot more than we do. (Or at least than I do.) Anyway, I hope she's better SOON!!

2. My Mom called me last night to tell me that she was in her basement because of tornado warnings there. She lives where they NEVER have tornadoes. There's too many mountains around there for tornadoes. So weird!

3. Today I plan to have some me time. J doesn't go to work until 3 this afternoon. So, this morning I'm going to do some shopping. Maybe I'll get some breakfast or a "designer" coffee. Who knows!

4. I tried Greek Yogurt for the first time last night. The texture is like sour cream. Every time I dug my spoon into it I though "sour cream" which made it taste off when I put it in my mouth and it was sweet. I can't explain it but I don't like it. I think too much to be able to enjoy Greek yogurt.

5. I mentioned I'm going shopping today. I didn't mention I'm going to Walgreens to try out some coupons! It's my first time and I'm a little nervous. I'm hoping it all goes smoothly and I score myself some deals!

6. You want Random? I've got random. How's this? I LOVE Sean Bean!

7. I think we're going to MiL's tomorrow to hang out. J has off Wednesday and Thursday so we're going to visit. What's really amusing is that MiL is coming Here today to drop J's cousin off. She lives right down the road and has been spending a few days at MiL's house. I guess we'll be traveling to her place caravan style.

8. I must go shop now. Coupons, Coffee, Gasoline! I'm going to spend some money! (Not all of this spending will make me happy though.) Where's that Coffee????

Random Tuesday Thoughts!

It's Tuesday! Time for some Random Thoughts! If you want to play click the Random box below and join the fun over at Keely's blog!

1. Saw Percy Jackson last night. Sean Bean is a god. Literally. He didn't have near enough screen time. He never does. But it was nice seeing him on the big screen (that's so rare) and he looked Good! Especially the scene in the beginning. *Smile*

2. J got me two seasons of Bones on DVD for Valentine's Day. Perfect gift!

3. Looking forward to traveling home to Pennsylvania in a month or two. Haven't seen my family since last Easter. FAR too long!

4. I LOVE the Olympics! So much fun and Patriotism. Just love them.

5. The season finale of Leverage is tomorrow night. This makes me sad. TNT's scheduling is ridiculous. I also think that they need more episodes in a season.

6. The bright side to number 5 is that Wednesday nights will now be clear for Ghost Hunters and Destination Truth (I really enjoy watching Josh Gates. Very funny.) which both start in March.

7. I don't play Farmville, Cafe World, Mafia Wars, Fish Tank or really anything like that on Facebook. WHY do people insist on sending me things for these games!? Go away!

8. I bought the World's Most Comfortable Pants Ever at Walmart the other night. They now have a bunch of stuff out for St. Patrick's Day (My second favorite Holiday after Christmas) and they have AWESOME lounge kind of pants that say Guiness on them. They also have Elmo and Kermit the Frog ones. Highly recommeneded SOOO Comfy!

9. Happy Pancake Day! We had purple pancakes here. I love food coloring!

Well, I suppose that's all for now. Have a great Random Tuesday!

Yes Please!

I t occured to me that I should blog about something today.

Apparently I have this thing where I can't NOT blog. So, on those days that I have nothing to say you'll have to forgive me for the Extremely low quality (as opposed to the regular low quality) posts. Well, actually you don't HAVE to forgive me, but it would be nice.

I have plans for today. I'm PLANNING on going to see Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief later.

Children's movie, you say. Yes, I'm pretty sure you're right. HOWEVER. This film has a certain cast member in it that compels me to go watch.

Sean Bean! On the big screen! Yes please! You better believe it! I'm there!

I may even get some popcorn . . .

1. Leverage comes back tomorrow. I'm so happy, it's been months since it's been on. If you've never seen it check it out on TNT. There will be a marathon of viewers choice episodes starting at noon and going until the new episode at 10 (These times are eastern).

2. I'm excited for the Olympics to start. I love Olympic years. I love the patriotism. I'm also usually ready for them to be over by the end. But still, I just love them.

3. I love Sean Bean. Just love him. If you don't know who he is you really should check out some of his work. He's awesome.

4. The Kiddo went to bed so early last night. I don't like it when that happens. That means he was up so early this morning. I really don't like it when that happens.

5. The gym says that they should be up and running by tomorrow. Thank God! Now all my muscles are going to have to get used to working out again.

6. My Dad sent me an early birthday gift/late Christmas gift. It came in the mail yesterday. A membership to AAA. That is the kind of gift I like. It's practical and useful. Thanks, Dad! It's perfect.

7. I wish J liked breakfast food. I LOVE breakfast food but there's no point in making a bunch when he wont' eat it. I want to make a big "breakfast" for dinner. Breakfast for dinner is awesome. The one thing he did ask me to make was Chocolate Gravy. It's been so long since I made it, I hope I remember how.

Have a great Tuesday everyone!

Random Tuesday Thoughts!

Random! Random! Random Tuesday! Yay! I love Tuesdays!

1. I saw two deer the other night in the middle of town. They were running from one little patch of trees on one side of the road to another little patch of trees on the other side. I have no idea where they came from or where they were going because we really don't have "woods" around here at all. Just little patches of trees here and there.

2. There's this movie that I've been waiting and waiting for. It's called Ca$h and it's been in production in some form or another for years. I'm talking something like three years. I think it was supposed to come out in '07. Well, that never happened but it's FINALLY getting there. I am so excited. I sure hope it's worth all this anticipation. Sean Bean is in it so even if it turns out it's not that spectacular, at least it won't be a total waste.

3. Making Caramel French Toast for breakfast today. I'll let you know how it turns out. The picture makes my mouth water and I want a glass of milk just looking at it.

4. If you didn't see my blog yesterday you should really check it out. Brighten a Soldiers day! (Especially around this time of year.)

5. All the hype about New Moon has me almost wanting to read the Twilight Series again. Maybe just the good parts? (That would be anything with Edward and nothing with Jake. Sorry, Jake.)

6. Nice and cool here yesterday (and hopefully today too). We even had the heat on. Although to be honest I probably wouldn't have turned the heat on except that J really wanted it. He seems to get cold a lot faster than I do.

I hope you enjoyed this weeks, rather short, edition of Random Tuesday Thoughts! Have a great day!

Random Tuesday Thoughts!

Welcome to Tuesday!!! Feeling random? I am! If you want to join in click the cute little box and head over to Keely's blog!

1. I've decided that I'm going to reply to comments via e-mail because who really comes back to where they commented just to see if there was a reply?

2. Whose idea was it to put the keyboard together the way it is? I mean, I have no trouble with it because I know how to type. But, who decided where to put which letters in the very first place? Why not put them in order? A -B - C - D - E. Why are they Q - W - E - R - T - Y?

3. I'm a HUGE Sean Bean fan so I have my google alerts set up to send me one e-mail a day to update me on what he's up to. Well the other day I opened my Sean Bean Alert and what did I find? Me! There was a link in there back to my blog! Over to the left there is a spot that says "Things I Love" and he's included in that list and that's what showed up in my e-mail alert. I know, pathetic. But I felt special!

4. I love when my Kiddo laughs. Not like a little laugh ( I mean, I like that too), I'm talking huge cracking up kind of laughter. It makes me smile.

5. You know what I just found out? I've read a book called The Ghost a few months back. I really enjoyed it and was excited when I found out they were making it into a movie. Well, I went to
The Internet Movie Database to check on it's status . . . GUESS who the director is . . . go ahead, WILD guess! Roman Polanski!!!!!!! That's right! DELAYED FILM! I am so upset!

A Day for Me

A day for me! Yes! Okay, well, half a day. I have to be home by 1:30 so J can go to work. But until then, the day is mine.

My plan for today is to head across the state line to see a movie. Yes I have to leave the state because our teeny, tiny, little town does not have a theatre (or much of anything else). I think I’ll go see The Ugly Truth.

Then after the movie I have to run to Hobby Lobby and find something for my secret friend. What is a secret friend, you ask? That is when a bunch of friends get together and draw names. The, for the next few months, or however long, you purchase/make gifts for your friend and deliver them secretly. So far it’s been a lot of fun. However, when I find out who my secret friend is I’m going to give them an earful because they keep leaving me Chocolate! Now, don’t get me wrong, I ADORE Chocolate. It’s just not very good for a person who is trying, very hard, to lose some weight.

After that I’ll probably have to head home but I might try to stop in at Cato. I don’t know why, I can’t afford it. Oh I know where else I want to go. The used video store (I love it there). J and I were talking the other day about how terrible of a fan I really am. I have relatively few movies staring my favorite actors (Sean Bean, Alan Rickman, Harrison Ford, Tommy Lee Jones) so I’m going to see if I can find anything interesting. :)

Catch ya later!

Sleep?

So about two hours ago I literally had three things running through my head that I could write about. Now? Now I have nothing.

I am going to blame it on the fact that I was up until four o’clock this morning (This morning actually being Thursday morning, not Friday morning. I pre-wrote. Hehe). Yes, I said Four!

You see last night my Mother-in-Law and Sister-in-Law came with my niece and so everyone was wide awake. The kiddos (one three year old and one almost three year old) ran around like nuts and pulled EVERY toy (seemingly) out of the toy box. Then they watched Charlie Brown (A favorite around here. My Mom asked me once if that was the only movie we had since it seemed that every time she called the kiddo was watching it.)

While the kids played the rest of us chatted, checked out videos on http://www.youtube.com/ (Wedding entrance dance anyone? lol lol), etc. Then we watched (well it was on in the background anyway) Sense and Sensibility. Everyone was in on the Alan Rickman love.

In case you haven’t noticed Alan Rickman is one of my favorites. He comes in after Sean Bean though (Hottest man Alive!!! Yes, he is.). I think I could watch those two over and over and over again. I’m patiently (Uh, huh, sure) waiting for them to make a movie together . . . Do I actually think this will ever happen? Not really but a girl can dream.

Anyway, we finally hit the rack at 4 and crashed. I slept well.

(Yes, welcome, once again to the blog about nothing.)
