Turkey Song!!

Hope you had a good one my friends. Listen here to Adam Sandler's Turkey Song!

Ughhh , Swan and Vlog

It was just a bad day all around. It was supposed to go so much differently, and started okay, but everyone seems to be in a mood, there is just so much going on and to do. Birthday preparations and shopping. Resumes going out. Trying to soothe poor Maxie as thunder is constant lately. Everyone was just not in a sunny frame of mind, so it all imploded and was just a big fight that lasted too long, tears that wouldn't stop falling. Yeah one of THOSE days. There was one fun part, but only if you are a friend on Facebook, can you read about it. I asked you all to friend me there so if you haven't, go and friend me or email me if you need my name!!

So I have nothing to post otherwise, so I must find something to entertain you and I have the PERFECT solution!! I bring you....Miss SWAN!!

Stuart...etc

As I had feared the situation I have alluded to has not been resolved. Apparently my trustfulness has been questioned, which is just flabbergasting, as even as I am hurt beyond belief and been the one on the receiving hand of the threats.... Yes I need to get my feelings out, but I do it in a way where needed privacy is maintained. So do NOT question how much I can be trusted, because had I wanted to, in retaliation to the way I was treated, I COULD have written anything and everything, but I CHOSE not to. Because I am not like that.

Anyways, as I am emotionally spent after much crying, I decided something funny was needed to start the weekend off for my friends, and what could be better than a little dose of Stuart? SO enjoy, and I hope you all have a good weekend. I need to go take an extra Xanax as I am beyond frayed, and am worried I will think of the night's events ALL night. Which I do not want to happen. So let us sit back, with our drink of choice...maybe some cheese too, and enjoy MadTV's Stuart.

Blah Blah Blah

Nothing greatly new on this front, did the grocery shopping today. Did the Power Mile for Walk Away the Pounds, with Sam. Dang I am ready for it to be over 6 minutes in! But I lasted and did the tone up tape too, where my muscles shook again. I was in agony yesterday, my ab muscles...well I never thought I actually HAD ab muscles, were SO achy!! And today, I feel better and what do I have to do? Do it all over again. Man, that sucks, doesn't it?

I watched House with Sam and Mom. Just as it was about to begin I got a call from our prescription company in Canada and missed the first 10 minutes answering lame questions!! I HATE that, you do NOT call at 8 at night!!! I managed, I swear I don't know how I DID it, a 11 minute shower after we excercised and had just sat down for House and dinner when they called. It so pissed me off, I worked to be there!! Stupid Medco!! Anyway, House was awesome!! Did you guys see the END?? Holy freaking crap!! And what is SO bad about Cameron keeping her dead hubby's swimmers, just in case? The dude is dead so why can't Chase cut her a break? If she wants to pay to keep them frozen until she and Chase have one or two of their own, LET her! She has issues man, but you are supposed to LOVE her regardless!!

I have like almost 175 pictures I am ordering from Walmart.com because I have a lot of scrapbooking to do. I am almost 10 months behind so I have a lot of work to do. But I need the pictures first AND I have like no plastic sleeves left, so I need a trip to A.C. Moore! I need pages and Glue Dots and some new stickers I think. I might see if they have any collage stuff if I remember. Ramona makes such gorgeous ones, but I would need supplies, but I don't really have money for too much crafty stuff. If only I had a LOT of money, I would have so much craft stuff it would be SICK! But I would dance with such GLEE!! Heehee....yeah I know lame rhyme Wendy! Heehee! And to leave you all on a laugh, MISS SWAN!!!

Wow...excercise is HARD!

I am bone dead tired. I feel squishy. All my muscles feel like jello and the only thing that is keeping me upright is my verterbrae!! Seriously, imagine a skeleton sitting at a computer with all it's muscles and skin dripping off it like rain drops. That's me!!

I tried the Power Mile from Walk Away the Pounds with Sam an hour ago. It made me sweaty which I hate, but at least I am pretty sure it was working then. It exhausted me too but I was THANKFUL it was over after 19 minutes and 11 seconds. I am GLAD I did not do the slow one, I was tired after like 30 seconds, I know, I am so out of shape, I know it. But, I can sit on those balance balls, so I mist have great balance and I know I am flexible. I can touch my toe to my nose, so I figure that is flexible. I then sat and did the 10 minute tone up, minus the hand weights for most of it. I haven't been doing anything so this was enough. I did do the REALLY hard part with a weight though. The hardest one you have to hold the weight between your knee caps and squeeze so you are holding it there and while one your back lift and lift and lower and lift, etc. Every muscle in my body was shaking like a leaf!! The other one where you are in a cat position, you clench the weight behind your knee and lift, etc. I felt like a jellyfish when we were done. I stumbled to the bathroom and took shower, I don't know with what energy, since I feel like burnt rubber.

I am the jellyfish you see on the sand of a beach. The one you go over to with a stick and poke at it. Man...I HATE excercise....excuse while I turn into a puddle on the floor and just....lay there!

BBQ and Vampires

It was so bloody hot today, WHERE is Spring?!! It got up to 89 degrees in the house so around 6pm my Dad decided FINALLY the Air Conditioner needed to be uncovered, filters switched and turned on. Hallelujah! I don't sleep well when I am broiling so I may be a little snippy today, but not much I'd say, just hot. It is finally feeling cool, so that relaxes my tension.

My parents bought a NEW grill yesterday and put it together, isn't she a beaut?
And that IS our grill and my yard in that pic. Baby fence put up so MAx could roam free on the deck, but he knows when he is hot too and ♥'s the air conditioning! Anyway, we had regular burgers (me and Mom), turkey burgers and hot dogs, watermelon (so red but not sweet, so sad), english cucumbers and etc. It was a delicious meal, our new BBQ was a virgin for less than 24 hours, and made us all proud to have her as our new BBQ. Sorry old one that is who knows where, you were 10 years old and very rusty, Dad leaving you out ALL winter uncovered and all!

Tonight we finally watched Twilight and it was fine, but I had adored it, so these are my theories. One is, I am still afraid things like Twilight wil get so stuck in my head again (and it was Twilight that got stuck so bad) and so my brain was protecting me. Two is that after "reading" (okay listening to but that is still reading in it's own way) the real books, I kept thinking that's NOT how it happened so I was too busy being hyper critical to enjoy it. I mean Bella finds out in the car on the way home from Port Angeles people!! AND there is NO 2,000 questions from Edward like in the book, that is a favorite part of mine! Those are my theories but I still can't wait for New Moon in November. I hope they make the Edward-less part only half of the movie, because he was only in 1/4 of the book and that was too infuriating for us on Team Edward!!

Oh and thanks to whoever put that link to what WAS written for Midnight Sun, I read it online, so it isn't really reading but close enough, and though it was repetitive in some ways, I loved learning WHAT was going through Edward's mind when he first smelled Bella and his reaction when Alice told them she and Bella would be BFF's! So thank you, I was SO sad that it stopped just as it got to the part where it was HIS turn to ask questions. Sad!!!

P.S. Check out this Friends clip that has HUGH LAURIE!! ♥♥♥♥ him!!!

Belly Relief

So as I mentioned, on Friday night Katie taught a bellydance class at church for the Relief Society. She was nervous, so Mom, Sam and I all went. I appointed myself photographer, as no, I will NOT bellydance! Sam tried it basically the whole time, and my Mom even participated some of the time, AND she laughed. They ALL laughed and seemed to have a great time.

Katie brought in as many of her hip scarves (the ones that don't cost hundreds of dollars) as she could and there were enough for everyone there, only about 10-12 showed up. The Bishop's wife was a No-Show, which was SO disappointing! I was REALLY looking forward to getting pics of Jahoodie (my way of saying her name...with LOVE!!) sashaying across the floor, shaking what God gave her!! Alas, NO Jahoodie!

Anyway, they really enjoyed it. And Katie was NICE. Not that she isn't nice, but according to Gina, Katie is a real task master as a teacher. And Kate was trying to fit SO much into an hour class. A few of the women were like "Man, I am sweating from shaking my belly", and stuff like that, which made me laugh. I see Kate of Gina after they perform for 10 minutes and they are one huge layer of sweat, and Kate has been doing this almost 10 years, so it never gets easier per say, it really works you out. Katie drinks down 2 bottles of water in like 10 minutes, and that is after shorter gigs. I have seen these two women dance for an HOUR, and man...do not hug them or get too close, thay are hot, sweaty and smelly. Naturally, but still, sopping wet. So seeing these women realize how much work it actually is, was really cool. I know because of the amount of time I have helped Kate and Gina. Bellydancers are really underappreciated, they don't get the thanks, etc they so deserve. It is really difficult, the costumes are $800 a piece at least, and people will bash them as they dance. I say out of jealousy, why else would you say, "no she is fat" when you see one dancing, and know she can hear. Jealousy. Gina has stopped, when she dances at the dreaded hookah bar and gets in their face, she will only take so much, which is cool to see, I have to tell you.

Anyway, Sam and Mom were all achy Saturday, and I saw on Facebook, a few of the sisters are considering taking one of Katie's real classes that she offers!! Yeah go Kate!

And here is Kate's PRO website, nolast names so it is fine, and there are a lot of shots I took of her at gigs on one of the pages, she is just amazing, teaching wise and performing! Click HERE.

Achmed...I Kill You!!

I found my sisters and mother watching this show on Comedy Central last week, a comedian with puppets. At first I looked at them like, hello, ventriloquism?! You are watching THAT? But I sat and watched, and dang if I didn't start laughing my butt off! He and his gang of characters were friggin' hysterical. So I am now a fan of Jeff Dunham, and his "band of merry men". So if you are seriously EASILY offended, don't watch, but you will be missing a funny time!

*trying to concentrate on something funny, and forget my anxiety and fears, including the stomach thing returning.

Miss Swan Dancing Queen

Still feeling so tired, I don't know why, but since the worst of the bug I am having daily trouble sleeping, and feeling even more weepy. My mother, experienced in depression, says it is common, after being sick, but it really doesn't matter...it SUCKS. So here is a Miss Swan video I had on draft to leave you all with a smile and let you know I am thinking of you. Hope NONE of you get this stomach flu/poisoning. It sucks. And remember, throw away any Keebler or Austin P.B. crackers. The salmonella outbreak. Yuck.

An Award and TV talk

I got this awesome award from Mary The 1st!! It is my first award in 2009, thus it is very special!! And being from Mary, who I find sweet and hilarious, it is even more appreciated!

I have no idea who does NOT have it, so if you are one of my wonderful readers, consider yourself awarded for being there, giving me advice, and being such good friends!

I am so excited, I have a NEW Gossip Girl and One Tree Hill to watch tonight. I know, I know, i am a tv addict, but this winter hiatus has depressed me so. The only reason I survived it so well, is my trusty ABC soaps, on every day, and I have been re-watching all 4 seasons of Lost, to get myself ready for Season 5!! Only this season and 1 more and it is OVER!! Waaahhh! I mean I am looking forward to the answers to all my questions, but I LOVE these characters...man I miss Charlie, I hope Hurley hallucinates him a lot!! When Lost first premiered all I could think was he ws the Lord of the Rings hobbit, finally halfway through season 1, he was Charlie...sorry I just watched him die like 2 days ago, so the pain is *sniffle* fresh again!

I got all excited last Tuesday, I saw what I thought was the 2 hour premiere of a show I have waited like a year for, To Love and Live, with Shiri Appleby who finds her birth father, he is a hit man, and it clicks, killing people is what she has been meant to do all her life. It was funny and cute. And now it seems maybe they only showed the pilot as a movie, and NOT a series!! Noooo! I was so happy and now it's future is SO uncertain...GRRRR!

Anyway, I am watching the drama unfold on All My Children, Bianca is worried Reese, her girlfriend is cheating on her with her brother-in-law Zach. The guy who donated his "lil swimmers" so Bianca and Reese could be Mom's. And Kendall doesn't know yet because she is in a coma and they all think she is dying. Which thank goodness she is not, I LOVE Alicia Minshew's Kendall, she holds her OWN with Susan Lucci as her Mom, man!! Yes, I am hooked on all three ABC soaps, so anyone who wants to talk soaps, email me or talk to me on here, I am addicted to my soapies! LOL!

And here is a NEW Miss Swan to enjoy!

Jim Carrey IS White White Baby

Crazy Comedy!!

I love to laugh, it really is the BEST medicine I can be on, that anyone can be on. And for some reason my favorite comedians...usually LOVE to swear. I don't think they are funny BECAUSE they swear...a lot...they just happen to be like the majority of the people and throw around the "f bomb" and such.

So I am at an impasse. Do I post some of my favorite funny clips from youtube...or will people be offended and think less of ME and stop reading/following and what not. Should I post them with this catchphrase in the title, "Don't Watch if Easily Offended" or some such nonsense...or should anything with swears be omitted from my blog? Seriously I am asking for opinions here.

This comedian I am posting, Carlos Mencia is hilarious. Half of what he says I am like "No Carlos don't go there", it is awful, but funny and sometimes SO point on it is amazing! But this is one of like 3 videos that has been "beeped" for the words you can't say on tv thus far. All the others are chalk full of swears as are Denis Leary's who cracks me up so much, I often need to run to the "loo".

So give your opinions readers...should I or shouldn't I? Am I a bad Mormon if I post them? Help a "Sister" out here!
