LOVE IT!!!

Before you read my rants and ramblings of the day, please check out this outfit that I am obsessing over and must purchase NOW!!

I watched THE BEST show last night!! There were good forces, and of course, there was evil. My favorite line was "I can't tell who I'm running against sometimes"... It was HIGHLY entertaining and unexpectedly fascinating. I do hope that you all got a chance to see it for yourselves, as opposed to having others tell you how it went. I thought it was even a nice little preview as to how people behave when they are under pressure, and I thought only one lost their cool. Regardless, I LOVED IT!!! I thought the underdogs really stood up for themselves, and won in the end, and it was truly a nice change of pace from the mean kids...

I do however find
this disturbing as I hope Edwards is not siding with who he thinks the nominee will be with each debate. I thought he did very well last night, however, when it looked like Obama would be the nominee post-Iowa he opted to tag-team Hillary with Obama, and now when it looks like Hillary will be the nominee, he tag-teamed Obama with Hillary. I really like Edwards, and my gut tells me this is not the case, but this post-debate "meeting" between Hillary and John last night troubles me very much...

I didn't blog about this yesterday, but I also LOVED the Amazing Race finale!! I thought the
winners were precious, and that the two runners-up won as well, actually. It was awesome!!

In random news I actually got the chance to see the entire
9 minute Tom Cruise video- which is hard to find because they keep switching it to different websites to avoid being sued. Prior I had only been able to see bits and pieces. You really should catch it while you can. This stuff is GOOD, and his cackle might be worse than hers... you decide!!

While you're at it, check out this creepy
website about Scientology related deaths. I'm not saying it's true... just really really creepy!!

I caught two politically hilarious videos this morning. One was quite insightful, as if you're basically going to run for President again through your spouse you should probably skip events honoring Martin Luther King if you're
this tired...

Also, across the aisle, one of those cute Romney boys
punked his Dad on the phone, and it was fabulous... seriously!!

BRITNEY SHOWED UP!! I can't believe she showed for her deposition, although I'm not sure it was actually her or the "British girl". Hope she switched personalities back before speaking on the record, though I would be quite entertained if she actually gave the entire thing with her new accent.

In really random but completely not shocking celebrity news, this
article and video allegedly show Amy Winehouse smoking crack cocaine... wonder if she has Britney's number? They should really get in touch.

Okay, nobody make fun, but I am SO EXCITED about
this show on MTV!! I actually can't wait, which I realize reduces my maturity for my age by leaps and bounds.

I also just caught this press conference, which I find laughable, as one should not throw stones when living in glass mansions... especially when those stones are full of fluff. I find it ironic that when Obama finally
stands up for himself against false accusations by two Candidates, both of them named Clinton, who take every opportunity they can to distort his record, Obama is actually accused of being "very frustrated". See for yourselves. I guess I differ in my opinion of what type of behavior is displayed when one is "very frustrated", such as this example and this one (which is HILARIOUS by the way!).

And if there is a flip-flopper out there in this race, please take a minute to see who that person actually is...
exhibit A
exhibit B

By the way, I am not even going to discuss the
Oscar nominees today, since the best movie, best actor, best director, and best original song were all completely SNUBBED. Here is the video for that amazing song below. And I really do mean it's AMAZING!



Hope everyone had a great day off yesterday!! Have a Happy Tuesday!!!

PS- GO ELI & GO GIANTS!!!

AT A LOSS...

*** PLEASE NOTE POST WAS WRITTEN LAST NIGHT & NOT POSTED DUE TO ALCOHOL ***

So...
evil won out over good this time around. It is certainly not over, nor is my date with beer. I just saw on the news that she, who shall remain nameless won because of the female 40+ vote and the Independants who figured Obama had it in the bag opted to help McCain instead, or other questions asking if New Hampshire voters lied to the pollsters to be more politically correct.



Basically, I think if this likeable guy...


would just drop out of the stupid race already, Obama will win the nomination. Surely Richardson, with his low numbers will, but Mr. I'm Going All the Way to the Convention Edwards is giving me a headache!! And now, as I listen to the pundits tell me that the reason she won was because women over 40 felt badly for her when John Edwards decided to tag-team her with Barack, which appeared to be a surprise to Obama himself during the debate on Saturday, followed of course, by the crying incident yesterday all caused older women to vote for her because they felt the boys were being "mean" to her. And they voted for her in masses...

I KNEW THAT BS CRYING ACT WOULD WORK WITH PEOPLE!!

In addition, the sad part is that if Edwards had decided to tag-team Obama with Hillary at the debate, than Obama would have won tonight. I literally was devastated tonight at this result, and I absolutely despise her and her "don't treat me like a girl unless I cry and make you feel bad for me and remember that I am one" self that I could scream! But I live in an apartment complex and don't want a noise complaint to assist in the current rainstorm on my parade so I'll refrain. But if ANYBODY, and I mean ANYBODY thinks that Hillary Clinton will be able to beat ANY Republican in the general election they are crazy. She is corrupt and has FAR too much baggage. People are OVER the Bush-Clinton-Bush-Clinton? monopoly of corruption over the last 2 decades, and it will surely take a strong and different Democrat to beat the Republicans. Even now, on Anderson Cooper (he is so hot, even though I am pissed off!!) they are discussing whether race was a factor in offsetting the polls. A normal person would be appalled at this, but I am from Tennessee where Harold Ford lost to an idiot solely because he was black...

Regardless, I am NEVER setting foot in the State of New Hampshire, because they believed a crying, wo'es me, and overdone Hillary instead of who they SHOULD have voted for. Sorry if that offends, but I seriously will not vote for her no matter who she runs against. If she wins the Democratic Nomination then I will again be in my parents good graces and vote Republican. Mark my words.

Anyway, this discussion makes me physically ill (technically not yet, give me a few more hook-ups with my beer!!) but I will not be discussing this anymore.

I would like to add, based on the fact that he has received less than 5,000 votes TOTAL in TWO primaries, what is this man still doing in the race?? Don't get me wrong, I LOVE him and I have NEVER voted against him, but do you think he is just bored because of the writers strike and looking for something to do?? I don't get it!!

anywho... i am now moving on!!

So, I would like to share my napping incident with y'all from earlier today. Well whoever said that three heads were better than one is CRAZY... especially when those heads are Thatcher, Reagan and Nelson's.....



...There I am amidst the midday nap of a lifetime, and then BOOM!!! Dogs Gone Wild was occuring in my living room!! You seriously would have though someone was trying to break in and I got a little nervous! Alas, as I bounded down the stairs from my room I found NOTHING! No dogs outside, no burglar, no people in the parking lot, no dog catastrophe going on in the kitchen... NOTHING!! Just commotion for the hell of it!

I was pleased.

I scolded to the best of my ability (ability being poor because they are my babies after all!) and returned to my nap. No sooner was I entering
REM than chaos again ensued. I can't even believe I gave it another shot, but I did. This time I swear I was amid a dream about Vinnie Chase trying to seduce me... then WHAM!! Glasses broke, a coffee table turned over, an all out three-dog-freakout was going on!! I desperately searched for reasoning behind this madness, and I unfortunately soon found out...

THE WIND

The wind was blowing hard enough that it made it sound like somebody was at the door. Nothing that would come remotely close to waking up an adult, or even a normal dog, but my kids are different. Any noise, anywhere, anytime... I mean if they hear a car door opening it is complete pee-pee-in-the-floor madness. And I was mad... like furious. I am still not sure I am over it.

I am SO completely over this day. No more news, no more barking... still got beer so it's a good thing I got such a
great movie to watch!! HaHa!!

Happy dreams to all, unless you are
Hillary Clinton!!

PS- Do you think I could just put in "A LOT OF BEER" into my weight watchers journal & they would just calculate it?? ...Cause I lost count awhile back!!! :-)
