Online Shopping...

I admit that i do lots of online shopping. I don't actually purchase that much stuff, but I love to look anyways. It is like the modern "window shopping" venue...
Anyhoo... I ordered this swim suit for our trip to St. Thomas in a few weeks:


Although I will not look nearly as good as this model, I loved the way the top can convert to a halter. It will be great for catchin' some rays! 20 days in counting until we leave and are here.

Say It Ain't So!

I really like the show "Jon and Kate Plus 8".... I hope the rumors are not true!

"In February, the 32-year-old was spotted flirting with -- and even attempting to kiss -- coeds at Juniata College, multiple students confirm to Us Weekly. (He denied any wrongdoing.) He told one coed "he was getting divorced." In the May Ladies Home Journal, he says, "I always thought I would be, like, 54 years old and marry a 19-year-old or something.""

Goodbye...


Last night's episode of LOST was supposed to be "the best of the season". Let's just say that I was HIGHLY disappointed in the events that unfolded.
Faraday was instantly one of my favorites. I have this kind of weird "thing" for smart, quirky men. I know, I know... but hey, just look at Jeff, they make wonderful husbands. lol
Anyhoo...We found out a lot about Faraday's life and his psychological abuse from his mom, Eloise Hawking; along with reassurance of our guess that Charles Widmore was his father. Besides a few blurbs of high level math jargin (that most of the views would not understand anyway), we did not learn much about what Faraday actually knew about the island. This is so frustrating.
Then at the end of the show, he is shot by his own mother! If that is not bad enough, she has such little respect and love for him, that she sent him back to the island with full knowledge that it would happen! What a psycho! ugh... Now we will never know exactly what he know and found out.
And so it stands that we have lost another one of my favorite characters :( I really hope that they bring him and Charlie back asap!
So the question stands.. Can you really change the future? If it is really Jack, Kate, Sawyer, Hurlye, etc's present, in the past, can they change what will happen?
How will the writters solve this one?
I really hope that they are not on some infinate loop, but I also hope that they can't change the future because that means that none of them would have ever met and this whole show has been a waste! lol jk

Facebook Quiz

So, I took one of those silly quizzes on Facebook that is supposed to "accurately" guess your personality... This one was called "What engagement ring style fits your personality". Here is what the result was:

"You're quite the individual! Good for you! You value tradition, but welcome change. You are intelligent, witty, sensitive, and have a diverse set of friends. You are as comfortable discussing politics as you are baking cookies. You have strong morals and principals and are respected by others. You have a purpose and it will be realized."

While the ring doesn't look anything like my real engagement ring, I think the description is pretty accurate. I especially like the part, "You are as comforable discussing politics as you are baking cookies." For those of you who know me, I think you would agree! lol

Jazz Fest

Jeff and I went down to New Orleans for Jazz Fest this year. Yesterday is the only day that we will be able to make it, but Dave Matthews, Wayne Toups, and Better than Ezra were playing so it was the best day, anyways. It was a lot of fun; another thing to check off my list of "things to do while living in Louisiana", but the hygienics were pretty gross and the crowds got a little overwhelming. I definitely would not go unless we had the free perks (ie cleaner bathrooms, a tent with tables and chairs, and free food, beer and drinks) from Shell Oil! Here are a few pics:

Culprit

So, after a great girls day full of shopping, brunch, and lots of laughter, I came home and immediately (like most days) went to check on the progress of my vegetables.... this is when I found this:

This was my FIRST tomato! I was so excited that I finally had one turning red, but obviously something got to it first! :( What a disappointment...
I guess I am going to have to build a cage... or maybe a trap! lol

Fix




I got my Sushi fix for a while! Jeff is never too sure about the stuff, but he is always a good sport. I can't get enough. It was a beautiful night so drinks with Tim and Allyson on the rooftop of Tsunami's with a view of the Mississippi River just topped it off. :)

Favorite

This is my favorite part of LOST so far! Every time I watch it I crack up. Ben's face is classic; he's thinking, "what the heck was that?!"

This didn't take long...


I knew someone would grab Susan Boyle as soon as she walked off the stage! She has unveiled a new look with some hair dye and a new outfit. She is so very modest and confident. Check out what she has to say here. Even if she doesn't win the show, she is destined for an amazing career.
