A Jumble of Things

My ISP is AOL (unfortunately). If you haven't seen an AOL screen, it pops up little blurbs for you to click on. Tonight, one of the things that caught my eye was a comment about the worst places to live in reference to car insurance. If you live in one of the following ten states, you have the highest insurance bills:

District of Columbia
New Jersey
Massachusetts
New York
Connecticut
Delaware
Nevada
Rhode Island
Louisiana
Arizona

Isn't it amazing how many of the are in the northeast?

Today Dear Husband was home because it's still too cold for the crews to be laying bricks. He did some setup and organized the jobs so they can fly through them once the weather warms, but he was home by about 10:30 in the morning.

It's amazing how the addition of one person to the house during the day can disrupt your schedule. I have certain things I do at certain times of the day. Today, rather than working at my desk on my own work, I volunteered to type a long document for DH. I got to the bottom and he said....."Don't you think it's time for lunch???" Yes, Dear.

We adjourned to the kitchen, where HE had hard salami on rye bread with MIRACLE WHIP....and I had a healthy salad of romaine, red cabbage, cucumber, feta and turkey. I offered to make him a salad. I even offered to put STEAK on it. No deal. He really wanted that Miracle Whip. Nasty stuff. Just plain nasty. I won't even contemplate what it does to his insides.

Then, the rat snuck back to the office and comandeered the computer for the afternoon. Hmpf! I can't wait to switch to a cable hookup!

Real Simple's "Thoughts" page is on the subject of kisses. Here's one of the quotes on kisses: "A kiss can be a comma, a question mark, or and exclamation point. That's basic spelling that every woman ought to know." Mistinguett, a Moulin Rouge Dancer and singer said that. I love kisses. I love the mystery of a first kiss....the warmth as you near their lips, the feel of their breath across your cheek. What will it feel like? Will it have just the right pressure? Will it be slobbery or too dry, or just right? There's a sweetness to the kiss of a long time love that cant be found anywhere else. It's comfort and memory of all that has gone before rolled together in one touch.

And from the sublime to the ridiculous......

Could we PLEASE cancel the Super Bowl??? What a load of hype! What a waste of air space! How incredibly DULL! It says a lot that people tune in just for the half-time commercials. And that's something else I want to rant about! $10,000,000 for one minute! I'm telling ya.....our values are all screwed up!

With that thought.....I'm gonna take my drugged up self off to bed.

Wait....has anybody seen my watch???

You lost your watch?? The New Year is not a good time for you with jewerly is it ~ shaking head

Yeah....January doesn't seem to be my month. DH is pretty sure the watch has to be in the house. I have about four places I commonly keep it, and it isn't there, so it's time to check the uncommon places now.

I have a Mickey watch I could wear, but it needs a new battery, and I MISS my dress watch!
