Such a blah day

Spent most of today playing facebook's version of scrabble with da banshee killing time. I mostly just wanted to crawl into bed and sleep the day away again since it was so grey outside (and cold) but instead i wasted it in front of the puter doing absolutely nothing.


okay, not NOTHING. I did dowload a couple songs and i'm trying to learn a couple for tonight karaoke with Les and da banshee here on my side of town. And I learned about a new album that Robert Plant and Allison Krauss put out together. It's frigging awesome!!


Raising Sands by Robert Plant/Allison Krauss


CNN story here


Take a listen to the samples of the tracks. I really like Rich Woman and Gone, Gone, Gone. I can't wait to hear the rest of it. Prolly gonna invest in it next week.


Thinking I might go take a nap before da banshee and her man come pick me up this evening for karaoke.


Happy NaBloPoMo

Quick Post

Getting ready to leave for darts and who knows when I'll get back. hopefully early cuz I have to go out to the same place tomorrow with da banshee and her pirate for karaoke ^_^

Last 24 hours were one of the worst for me. toilet overflowed causeing a couple of lakes in my house. I had a major meltdown. Found out today it was prolly due to situation combined with major PMS. not fun. I'm better today.

YAY NaBloPoMo!!!

ME :-)

Franklin bridge

for some reason it didn't show so here it is

Some things on my mind

1. one of my favorite commercials currently on TV:





2. This story gives a whole new meaning to the term "Holy Cow"


3. Anyone wanna go to Burbank, CA this Saturday?


4. I actually got this email just a little while ago:

(click to see bigger)



I mean SERIOUSLY!?!?!



5. This story pisses me off. Specifically this part:



"The photo ID complaints come at a time of debate nationwide over whether the photo ID requirement unfairly hampers the voting rights of minorities and poor people."


are they kidding me? Photo IDs are unfair to MINORITIES and POOR PEOPLE?!? Aren’t we all required by law to have some form of photo ID? Last time I renewed my ID (cuz I don’t have a driver’s license) it was only $8. And you only have to pay that once every 4 years. How is that unfair? *GRRR*


6. I really wish I had $11,000 just laying around in order to win this auction. (more info and awesome pics here)


7. Is anyone else watching "The Next Great American Band"? I frigging love this show! I never EVER vote on these shows, I just watch and guess who’s gonna leave. I am voting this time for The Muggs (who are from Detroit) but if I had my way I’d totally vote for these guys:




They have tons of talent and are cute as anything! Altho I think the finalists (unless things go horribly wrong) will be:


Sixwire:




and Franklin Bridge:





8. I forget what 8 was for.


9. We’re getting close to going to the tournament for Trivia. First prize is $1000 voucher for travel or cash equivalent!!!! Wish us luck! We’ve won first place in the bar we play at 3 of the last 4 weeks ($30 gift certificates) Some of the questions they ask:

What movie is this quote from: " Don’t call me son. I’m a lawyer and an officer in the United States Navy. And you’re under arrest, you son of a bitch."


answer: A Few Good Men


And our final question this week (where you wager your points ala Jeopardy and if you place 1st, 2nd or 3rd you get gift certificates)

10. a pic of one of my cool bday gifts. A Marilyn Monroe purse. I now have 3 of them.

One of my awesome bday presents :-)

A Marilyn Monroe purse!!!!

I forgot to cross post this yesterday ^_^

http://nablopomo.ning.com/profile/magikjaz

I have it linked to my blogger and not myspace mostly cuz i need motivation to get back on track over there. I'm also gonna try and transfer my blogs from myspace to blogger over the next month so they can be tagged and more easily searched.

This in no way means I want people NOT reading me on myspace. I love the instant gratification myspace brings me on my blogs.

So wish me luck. This year my attempt at NaBloPoMo is official. Let's hope I stick with it. ^_^

Dancing With The Stars

I'm just on my way to sleep after watching tonight's show on DVR (yes it's really 5AM in my world) and I have a couple things to say.

First of all WTF are they doing dancing a quickstep to THE CURE!?!?! I mean seriously! some things in this world are sacred.

WHAT WERE THEY THINKING!!!???!!

The Cure "Why Can't I be You" video here

Altho I shouldn't be surpirsed it was Cameron and Edyta. I really can't stand Edyta. I know some people that read this blog and watch this show like her, but I never have. That's another blog. Prolly tomorrow complete with video and jpg support of the reasons I can't stand her.

The other thing that pissed me off. Why did everyone but Cameron and Edyta show support for Sabrina? Everyone had little cheetah paw tattoos on their arms or backs or wrists. Even Marie Osmond and Jane Seymour, who have been very vocal about how "age-ist" the show is since they're older.

Everyone had a symbol of solidarity and it was referred to again and again thru the night when Samantha Harris was referring to voting to keep the people you like on the show.

Everyone but Cameron and Edyta. And that pissed me the hell off.

My fave since the beginning has been Helio. Also worthy of another blog when I'm more awake and sober.

Anyway, this season has pissed me off more than I can count and twice more tonight.

Holy NaBloPoMo Batman!

I just made it under the wire for a post today! YIKES! That's what I get for enjoying a football Sunday before shooting darts and then going to visit my friend Theresa at her place of employ.


Speaking of Football Sunday ... can we say HELL YEAH!!!??!!


The Detroit Lions are now 6-2 ... the first time since 1999. We went to the playoffs that year. Here's hoping we'll do the same this time. And if we do....big party at my house for the playoff game. You are all invited. I'm serious!


Speaking of playoffs, did you know the Detroit Lions were cursed? That's right. When they traded Bobby Layne to Pittsburgh in 1958 when he was injured after we won our championship in 1957 he cursed us saying "we would not win for 50 years"


Curseofbobbylayne.com


Random blog that mentions it


Bobby Layne in Wikipedia



Could it be that our time is up and we might actually *le gasp* go to the Superbowl?


I'm not holding my breath, but we are 6-2 and were only 3-13 last year. That in itself is a miracle.
