Live long because Kellogs is slow at mailing stuff

Woo hoo! Yeah! I have been checking the mailbox religiously since October.

It only took three months to get here...but it is quality!

Hail JW!

I had to speak at church on Sunday. I nearly broke into tears when I looked in the mirror before I left for church. I had a giant zit just above my lip, right in the center. It was red and swollen. I happened to do a lot of hand gestures when I spoke. Uh...I hope no one else thought that I looked like the leader of the National Socialist German Workers Party.

Let's Make a Deal!

Let's take a trip down Memory Lane to 1970s Game Show Lane, just off Mulberry Road. It isn't a street most people are familiar with. Next to Tick-Tack-Dough and Match Game is Let's Make A Deal. Dressed in a plaid blazer, Monty Hall would select an audience member (dressed in halloween-like costume) from the crowd and offer them a chance to win a prize behind a series of doors. Some people won cars and others won catfood.


At the end of the show Monty would pay the audience for random items they had in their possession. For instance, he might offer $500 to the first person that provided him with a rubber band or $100 for every paper clip that you have. The items are always random and strange.

I tend to keep just the essentials in my purse - chapstick, sunglasses, gum and wallet, all of which would not be too beneficial on Let's Make a Deal. But this last week I have been carrying around a hammer and two golf balls** in my purse. It is a lot to lug around. If only Monty were back in action! I am sure I would rake in the dough for such rare possessions!

Most girls I come across have just the essentials in their purses, but every once in awhile someone will shock me and pull out a pair of dirty socks or a doll head. Here is to keeping Monty Hall guessing!


**I use the hammer and golf balls for physical therapy for my hand. Besides, who knows when I will suddenly need to hammer something or play a round of golf.

The Magic Word

I think that if you slap the word "Twilight" on anything these days you have a money-maker.
I was at the mall a few nights ago and wandered through the good 'ol Bath & Body Works store and KABLAM! I saw this... A new scented lotion/body wash/perfume called "Twilight Woods"!
Truthfully, the scent was a little strong, sweet and well...woodsy. All the ingredients for a "romantical" interlude. I dabbed a bit on my hand and then spent the night worried that I might have been stalked or even bitten because I smelled so darn good. I sure am lucky that my windows were locked tight.

(I think that tomorrow I will have to go out and buy some Twilight toilet paper to go with my new Twilight bath mat and hand towels - a set with Jacob and Edward featured because I just can't decide who is prettier.)
