Early morning, April 4.
Shot rings out in the Memphis sky.
Free at last, they took your life.
They could not take your pride.

Okay... let's see if I can get enough of this down before I start to forget it all ( Read more... )

I don't really have a whole lot to say, but I really wanted to use my Betty Crocker userpic. And yes, as a matter of fact, I am indeed that much of a dork ( Read more... )

For several things. One, new icons. I now have five. I'll rotate through them I'm sure, as I know you're all desperately wanting to see them. And two, for me to get my butt back to the gym, which I'm doing tonight. I'm feeling a lot better, so here's hoping it doesn't kill me.

Merry Christmas!

You should all know that if you're on this friends list of mine, that I think you're a-okay. Have a fantastic day, rejoice much, revel in whatever your version of the perfect Holiday happens to be, and be safe.

My body is trying desperately to be sick. My mind powers are willing it not to. It is becoming quite obvious that my mind is not nearly as persuasive as I once believed. So now Alex sounds like he's been chain-smoking since in utero, Cooper's nose is producing alarming quantities of goo, and my throat is sore, and I have a bit of a cough. I'm ( Read more... )

I got a big chunk of shopping done today. Hopefully I'll be able to finish up tomorrow. Then there's the slight task of wrapping to conquer. And laundry, and The Cleaning of the Bathroom that needs to be done desperately. But I'm currently feeling all energized (thanks to my new best friend the elliptical trainer), and am optimistic about it all. I ( Read more... )

We went to eat at Mimi's (French Onion Soup and Salad...good thing I hadn't used many points). I went to the gym and ellipticaled and pedaled 400+ calories off. Then I rocked an oh-so-tired, but adorable little boy to sleep. Now I'm thinking about popping in The DaVinci Code and writing my shopping (Christmas and grocery) list until I can't stay ( Read more... )

I got randomly sucked into two reality shows on tv late last night. They were on at the same time, and I'd watch one until it went to commercial, and then flip to the other. I still have no idea why I felt compelled to view either one. The first was Temptation Island UK. My only reasoning was that at least two of the "contestants" were Scottish, ( Read more... )
