I'm Chuck Bass

Turkey Lurkey

I have been convinced lately that none of my real life friends read my blog.
Turns out my lurkers are my real life friends.
How do I know this? Well yesterday I was hanging out and catching up with my pals from high school and they apparently knew everything that was going on in my life.
How & Why?
"We read your blog!"
OH.
Thanks guys! You are the best!

I no longer have any site monitoring devices on my blog, I have no way of keeping track of where people are lurking from.
But what I want to know is, I wonder how many others lurk on my blog?
I love my lurkers by the way.
So hello creepy friends! Lurk away.

Also on a totally unrelated note, I have been having really weird dreams lately. I mean these babies would put the Sci-fi Channel to shame. I usually have very vivid and colorful and outrageous dreams, but lately they are INSANE!!!! I might have to start writing them down!
They start out tame and by the end of the week, I'm growing chicken eggs inside my body.
So tonight if I have a weird dream I will blog it tomorrow and all you lurkers can decipher it for me.

Good Advice

Read in Elle Magazine May 09' issue:

Dear E. Jean:

What should I have in my bag when I'm going out and thinking I may spend the night with a guy?

E. Jean:

I always carry fuzzy slippers, binoculars, and a copy of The Brothers Karamazov, a box of triscuits, and a slingshot.

I heart E. Jean who writes for Elle Magazine. Her advice is always truthful, helpful and strait forward.

Now I'm not advocating for one night stands. Nope! Never! But if I had to pick a few things to pack in an overnight bag, I would have to have:

a pencil sharpener

3-d glasses

left over chicken salad

a copy of Dressing your Pet for Dummies

trick gum that turned your tongue black

A Pee-Wee Herman Doll

What would you pack?

APD a little late

Last week was Administrative Professional Day. Did you hug your AP? I am an Admin Prof, because technically I am the secretary of the Library\Media Center.

Now my boss was gone (out on knee surgery) so nada from the big guy. Although last year he gave me a lovely azalea plant. I just found that plant in its pot, dead, in the back yard. Guess I forgot to plant it.

I did however receive a cupcake and a certificate from my co-workers. That was special.

My cousin Kelly is also an AP and she probably does a way better job than I do. She is the real hero here. Why am I saying all this? In honor of a belated Administrative Professional Day, here are some cakes for all you APs out there! Whoot Whoot!

No TWD

Sorry Folks... I once again, find myself so very busy.
I hope you all had success with your chocolate cream tart.
I will be back next week!

At the Cabin....

This past weekend I was invited to my co-workers cabin. This was the "cabin"...

It was once an old funeral parlor... now its just a regular old "cabin" in the woods.

We explored the basement and there was a dark dungeon room... I wonder if they put the bodies in there? I felt like David on Six Feet Under. Then we went out to the graveyard to explore that too... creepy. We even went back late at night, in the dark, with NO flashlights! Spooooky.

There was about 8 of us up there, including the guys... but they were too busy playing cards, so the fabulous foursome just ran around taking pics and being total spazoids. We bring the fun.

I'm going to miss my pals come summer when we are on our summer breaks... The up and downside of working at a school.

Just Bored....

1. What is your current obsession? Design and Crafty blogs. I love all the ideas, and then I love stealing all the ideas and making stuff of my own.
I'm also obsessed with watching the trees bud... everyday i go outside and inspect all my shrubs, trees and perennials to see how much more they have sprouted!

2. What’s a good coffee place? I do not drink coffee, I'm more of a chai tea latte girl... I don't go to coffee places much. But there was this coffee\bakery shop by my old apartment in Minneapolis, It was called Butter and i would walk there all the time and just sit outside with a cookie and an iced something.

3. Who was the last person that you hugged? My cat, Noir.

4. Do you nap a lot? Nope not a napper in the USA, but take me out of the country and I nap everyday and have lovely siestas. Are we the only country in the world that don't take siestas?
It's a metric conspiracy I think.

5. Tonight, what’s for dinner? Mexican goodness at El Toro with Shannon.

6. What was the last thing that you bought? Clearance underwear at Target. Am I too old to be wearing cherries and strawberries on my undies?

7. What is your favorite weather? Hot summer sunshine!!! With a cool breeze every now and then!

8. Tell us something about one blogger who you think will play this week? Oh it doesn't matter to me, I'm not going to tag anyone or anything. I'm just bored at work right now.

9. If you were given a free house that was fully furnished, where in the world would you like it to be? A posh Paris Apartment or a Cottage house in New Hampshire.

10. Name three things that you could not live without? Food, Friends\Family, Mascara

11. What would you like in your hands right now? Um..... an ice cream cone?

12. What’s one of your guilty pleasures? Gossip Girl!

13. What would you change or eliminate about yourself? I would be more pro-active with my life. I can be pretty lazy sometimes, especially when it comes to the art of living life out loud.

14. As a child, what type of career did you want? I think i wanted to be an actress or a singer. But I also wanted to be a stay at home mom. And a writer. But mostly an actress.

15. What are you missing right now? Summer.

16. What are you currently reading? I just got done reading Promise Not to Tell for my book club book. It was okay, it was spooky and disturbing though. My co-worker said I need to read Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants... so I guess I will read that next. Am I too old for that book too?

18. What’s the best movie that you’ve seen recently? I actually really like the movie Australia. It was kinda like an epic, and it made me laugh and cry. AND it held my attention, so that is always a plus!

19. What’s your favorite book from the past year? Snow Crash by Neil Stephenson and Garden Spells by Sarah Addison Allen. Both are magical.

20. Is there a comfort food from your childhood that you still enjoy? My grandma used to make us grilled cheese sandwiches with honey spread on top of the bread. It tastes soooo good!!!!
