Girl's Night In

It's Friday night & I'm finally home after a long day of work. I've been looking forward to this moment all afternoon. I've got a beer in one hand (not a nightly ritual, but it's fun for tonight), the remote in the other & it would appear that the plan for the evening is drinking & channel-surfing. I feel like Homer Simpson. Whoo hoo!

John's out of town on his first painting contract for his own company, so I'm on my own until tomorrow evening. It's always nice to have a little quiet, personal time every once in a while. I just hope I don't get a-scared when it's time to go to bed!

The forecast for this weekend is "chilly with possible thunderstorms, hail or snow". Hello?! It's friggin' April! Is snow really necessary? There's been some weird weather going on all over the place lately. I think the earth is in serious trouble. Maybe it needs a hug.

It's a good thing Earth Day's coming up on Tuesday. Let's all show some love.

Solitarily,

p.s. The Happiest of Birthdays goes out to Dado & Heid!!

Have it Your Way

Does anyone else think that the new king in the Burger King commercials is scary as hell? Holy crap I hate that thing! It's freaky & disturbing & makes me never want to set foot in a Burger King again. Great advertising campaign.

Maybe they should go back to the "Hold the pickles, Hold the lettuce, Shut up lady, Don't upset us, All we want to do is take your money away" jingle days. I don't remember the real words to the song but those are the lyrics we used to substitute & I'm sure we thought it was the funniest thing ever. I remember feeling quite badass when saying "shut up" too. That was like a swear word in our house.

Royally,
