Yesterday i reactivated my Facebook account but i dumped 75 friends. I know i just said i can live without it and i think i can leave it open without visiting as i used to. We'll see. I dumped a lot of work folks who pretty much post the same political stuff over and over and a few folks i don't even know. Some i do like in person, i just don't need the newsfeed and if i never had a real exchange with them it was easy to let them go. I hope i haven't offended anyone.
I may not leave it up, but i wanted to check in with my nieces and nephews and give them the scoop on voting no on charter schools, the Eyman intiative and some others that they might not be interested in.
susie, schedule that colonoscopy...it's not bad really. (pap smears are much worse i think!)
Yes! WALLPAPER...on my list of hates in the home decor. How did i forget? Also fake wood laminate flooring. definitely clutter.
I was trying to think if Jon Stewart's Daily Show coined "Romnesia"... Does anybody know?

*Anything doily like. Or afghan-y knitted stuff.

*Too much stuff on kitchen counters. I have the smallest kitchen around but somehow i manage to keep my counters free of clutter. if i can do it, anyone can.

*wall to wall carpeting.
*wall paneling.

2nd debate - glad O got his mojo back; re 3rd debate - scary how clueless romney is about foreign policy (disclaimer: i haven't watched any of the debates, just read articles and watched the post mortems).
Barbara. who is Jensen Ackles????
hey you know how i like to say that people look like famous people? I already said Jeff looks like Arliss Howard (the guy at the end of "Moneyball" and the musician in that really great movie from early 1990's called "Men Don't Leave" ...but i was also thinking he looks something like Mark Knopfler too!
OK, i'll be changing this up soon. I didn't forget the opening lines of novels. And i have a new product endorsement. I know, i know.... y'all can hardly wait! I think tomorrow i have some time.
Also, my friend Julie (jj here) gave me a book with this title....(I am not making this up).
"In My Humble Opinion: a journal to vent about why people are like that and why all the stupid things they do are so obvious to me, from not using their turn signals to believing they're the center of the universe to sweating the small stuff to ignoring the fact that we're all just trying to make our way in this insanely crowded world but some of us are doing it a whole lot better than others. "
hahahahahaha! Somebody stole my title!
http://m.imdb.com/name/nm0010075
He's in Supernatural. Which is Mel's favorite show and basically the only thing I watch on tv.
I can see the knopfler resemblance, but I think arliss (haha, autocorrect changed arliss to arousal!) is closer.
Lol, I want to read that book!

Actually my husband wants more than three, but i cut him off. Partly because he couldn't remember their names only the movies they were in: for example ...the Binochette chick and some actress who also had a famous actress mother and i said "melanie Griffith?...and he said no, short haired dark Italian. And it ended at that. We don't know. But if you do, please post it.
Three things without fail, that are ALWAYS in my refrigerator:
