I am a people watcher too. I am not much of a mall girl but every now and then its fun to check it out. I've been thinking about getting my eyes checked. I notice that I can't see far away as well anymore. Up close, I seem to be okay. Good riddance to the bifocals you didn't need anyway.

Some mini book reviews The Late Lamented Molly Marx by Sally Koslow I really enjoyed this book about a woman who is deceased, we get to see what's going on with her family currently, how they are dealing with her death, look back at her memories and find out who killed Molly. The actual who did it is really a small part of the book. This book was well and engaging. I liked Molly, hated some other characters okay mainly the horrible, cheating husband and his l

I think I am getting more and more grumpy and irritable as I get older. Some things that I never noticed let alone let bother me are now driving me up a wall. My new job is pretty quiet. I work third shift so there's not a whole lot of action, a little when we first come in and then it starts picking up when everyone is waking up but most of the night is pretty quiet. Of course, we have no musica in the officina. Music would really

[quote]the Swirling Epicenter isn't such a bad place to be.[/quote] lol [e digicons]:D[/e] [quote]Well its true. Sometimes its better to remember the way things were and to miss them, than to go back and see the "new." The new is always so disappointing...or, er has been for moi. [/quote] I agree with that. You can go home but you can't go back.

I have been feeling sentimental, nostalgic...maudlin of late. I think it is horrible to live in the past and always think what's done was so much better than what we have now. I guess we all have the tendency to look back and see the good and let the bad remain fuzzy. That said here is some of what I miss from former times and places in my life. Tiffin, Ohio - born and raised and lived there the first 18 years of my life. What do I miss? Knowing eve

I will be sad when newspapers go. I have read the newspaper for as long as I can remember. My first job was delivering the newspaper. BUT my local paper recently DOUBLED it's price per issue and cut its content. I understand they are in a struggle to survive but I'm with you, raising prices doesn't really help. Really I think it might make more sense to offer free papers to increase circulation.

Hello everyone. I have been working for the police department for four months now and there are certain things I notice that seem to cause numerous people numerous problems so in my spirit of helpfulness and love I thought I would share some tips. Okay, number one. Know your license plate. Memorize it. Or write it down. Even better write down the license plates of everyone you love - your husband, wife, son, daughter, mom, dad etc. The reason

[quote]Bobby Henderson's point was "if you let THAT in the science class, then you have to let THIS in, along with who knows what other half brained ideas.

Completely inspired by the suckitude of the awful and horrific rendition of Careless Whisper by Seether. I mean really how can a band that has a few rocking songs go so incredibly wrong? I decided to enlighten the world with my always scientific list of good cover songs and bad cover songs. The Good Black by Aaron Lewis of Staind - I honestly like it better than the original. And NO it is not whiny. Higher Ground by Red Hot Chili

Hey somebody special. You still served well and honorably. I do worry about what will happen when the U.S. troops are pulled. Do you think we need to maintain a permanent prescence in Iraq? btw, the ears comment cracked me up.

I agree that ther is a big difference between self defense and attack. I am all for peace and sometimes it really makes me sad that society hasn't grown past the point of killing each other to solve our differnces. That being said there are things that are worth dying for. What am I saying, I don't know but I wanted to comment.

I stamped, colored and glittered some dominoes that I am going to use to make necklaces for my imaginary etsy store that I really am going to start someday soon. I also practiced face painting some calaveras. I wish I were a better painter. It's hard painting yourself in the mirror though. That's my excuse anyway.

Sorry, you're hurting. I hope tommorow is a better, less painful day. I can't imagine living with chronic pain. I really can't imagine how you do your job when you are suffering. I know you do what you have to do but I think it would be a real challenge.

I believe in the law attraction to a certain extent. I don't think it's magic but I do believe that your thoughts can attract those things to your life. As for the first, serendipity, coincidence? I don't know. Sometimes things seem that they can't just be chance.

[quote]And while we're at it Elisabeth Hasselbeck's tearful dialogue with Whoopi on the view was right on. As much as Whoopi contends that "Nigger" is "their word" Hasselbeck is right that to truly get past it you need to stop using it. Not when it is convenient or carries political capital...but always.[/quote] I agree with this wholeheartedly. If it is an insult and offensive, no one should use it. It can't be okay for some and not for others.

Were you country when country wasn't cool too? ;P Blogging is really just another form of journaling which I believe can be very therapeutic. The difference is that on sites like this we can get some feedback, usually positive, occassionally negative. Well, I guess you are right that it is different because it is a public forum. Anyway, welcome back to blog world.
