Only my second time...be gentle

So I don't know why I have this urgent need to have a blog. It's the weirdest thing. I don't even know what to put on here yet. But I feel like I want to write something all the time. Maybe as I ramble on something will come to me. But as I sit here waiting...nothing. Let's start here, so I'm writing a book. I don't want to give any details because there are peeps out there that might see it as a good idea and steal it for their own. You just never know. I know only a handful of people know about my site and their friends. So I know they wouldn't do it. But for those random people that just happen to find my page, that's who I'm talking about. I feel scatterbrained when I write on it. There's so many ideas that I feel like I can't get them out fast enough. But it's so much fun to write it. I'm now attached to the characters and feel I have to do them justice. I also know who I want to play the characters if my dream of it becoming a movie were ever to come true. The main character isn't cast yet, though. I'm having the hardest time with that one. Good things come to those who wait. So I haven't actually been able to work on my story for 2 years now. But I think this weekend is a good time to do some writing. I hope to be able to read it to Greyson someday and it be one of his favorites. Maybe he'll ask for more and then I'll have to write sequels. I promise to not make them bad. For all you sequel haters out there.

So it's kind of rainy and cold out today. What a good day for spring cleaning. This house needs a bulldozer. Too bad Greyson doesn't have one. LOL! Although he does do most of the demolishing around here. But we're pretty good at that too. Somehow I think putting all three of us in the same house equals an F5 tornado. Or maybe we have ghosts. I swear, once things are put away, they all seem to find themselves right back where they were.

So my obsession has become "cruising". I can't stop thinking about it. It's like a disease that's eating away at my brain. I dream about it constantly. I'm ready for the next one. It's in November of 2009. Now some of you laughed at the fact that the date is so far away. Well, for those of you that haven't planned a cruise before, don't know that they're a bit different than just flying to Las Vegas. These things take time, also early booking gets you the best rates and the best rooms. You wait too late and you're stuck in a crappy room or worse, you're stuck with no room. Joking aside, the actual itineraries haven't been posted yet. So around July, I'm going to the travel agent to get some info and then I'll have a get together to pass out the info I've put together. Then we can all chose which one is the one we want to go on. The travel agent that Mike found lets you make payments, kind of like how Wal-Mart had layaway. So that's even better for those people that don't have the money all at once like that. You just have to have it paid in full a month before the cruise date.

So, this has been fun so far. I'll be back, but can't say when. Not that I'll have to kill you or anything.

Virgin Blogger

Okay so it's not technically my first time to blog. But I don't technically consider blogging on MySpace as "blogging". Anyway, I've had this weird fascination with morning talk show hosts lately. Kid Kraddick is one of them. I like to listen to everybody else on the show, though. Kid is pretty rude and cuts people off mid sentence. But Al! He cracks me up. Some people think he's pretty dumb, but it doesn't matter to me. He's funny and I'm always laughing my ass off on the way to work in the morning. Also, Jon and Deek crack me up. I am always busting a gut while trying to drive. So speaking of work. I love my job. Have I told you lately that I love my job? Well, let me tell you again! I love my job. Thank God for my son Greyson being born when he was. If it wasn't for him, I'd probably still be there! Ugh. Now I want to save all my friends that are left. I use to work for the Wal-Mart home office as an Art Director. I now see the light of day having crossed over to the light side. Amazing how life is so much more livable when you have less stress in your life. And speaking of work, again. I better start some of that right now...got to fill my coffee cup. Bye
