Random.

I love coming here to my blog directly from Pink
The screen does this cool transition thing that's start shaped and it takes everything in me not to go “Supa-stah!” a la Molly Shannon's Katherine Whatsername character on SNL.

I've been avoiding any new posts because I don't want to make my lovely wedding dress photos go away down the page. sigh

We bought new fireplace tools last night; helf off, baybee! Now we can have a much more efficient fire. At least that's Jamie's excuse for sitting there poking at it for an hour! “It makes it more efficient!” he kept telling me.

I did get roses for Valentine's Day. They're gorgeous, they're pink and red and white ones. And Jamie's so proud of himself… he bought a plastic wrapped dozen and arranged them himself in a vase we already had. “Well,” he told me “they wanted like TWICE as much for the flowers in the vase! So I did it myself! I even trimmed them!” Such a sweetheart (and thrifty too! LOL)

I get choked up every time someone wins a medal in the Olympics. Doesn't matter if we're talking about an American or not. Every time I see someone achieve a lifelong dream, I cry. Can't help it. Always have.

(Mom, don't hit me!) Jamie and I are going to see Van Morrison in concert next month! I got tickets for Jamie's V-Day present. As my dad says, we've set a prescedent of seeing classics in concert (the Eagles, the Stones, Paul McCartney) and Van is here so rarely, we just can't pass up that opportunity. It's on March 3 and I can't wait. Seeing “Brown Eyed Girl” performed live? Priceless.

I'm currently bidding on a pair of Manolo Blahnik's on eBay… owning a pair is on my list of 100 Things to Do Before I Die, and I've decided I want to get a pair to wear to my wedding. By looking on eBay, I'm finding some great deals (like in the $100 range!) and just found a gorgeous pair a couple of days ago. Bidding closes in about 3 hours, while I'm sound asleep, so I'm hoping to wake up to good news!

Ummm… that's all I've got for now! Stay tuned for more random meandering from moi!

    Enjoy the new fireplace, and most of all, enjoy seeing Van Morrison! Sounds wonderful (he and I share a birthday, did you know?)

Welcome, I'm so glad you're here! Thing number one, I'm tall. I've been told I should have a warning on my blog, so here it is! I am taller in real life than I appear on the internet. Want to know more than this "short" version? Go here to read more about me and my family, and for links to some of my favorite posts.
