Anansi Boys



I just finished reading this book.

Wow! What an excellent read. The end is just fantastic, really makes the whole story come together in a very satisfying way. It's been a while since an adventure choked me up, but there is something about the relationship between a man and his son and between brothers that Gaiman is able to capture wonderfully.

Just go read it and you'll see what I mean.

Wendy's Country Fried Steak

Does anyone out there remember Wendy's Country Fried Steak sandwich from their 99 cent menu? It was just a peice of counrty fried steak with mayo and pickles on a small white bun? Rining any bells out there?

I used to have them add onions and boy there was just something about that sandwich!

And then...

Boom!

Gone. No more CFS :-(

Here is a link to a commercial for it.



from TV ACRES: Advertising Mascots

I say Bring Back The CFS!!!!!!!

Is Jesus enough?

I ran across this in my morning reads…

Quoted from the article:

I add Jesus like salt and pepper to a tasteless dish.

He isn’t the main course, just an extra on the side.

 

This is so true for me.

I spoke out and just wanted give you a direct link.

I was really nervous prior to posting this. I wasn't sure how my story would be received. Because I stayed. I know many people out there are probably amazed at my stupidity and that was the reason I wasn't sure I should even go forward with my story.

But the comments I have received have been nothing but uplifting. Thanks for taking what I had to offer. Thanks for not judging me. And mostly thanks for caring, it really does make a difference.

I am so on it

Yeah, I thought I might update the whole costume thing. (yeah the one from Halloween, What?)

I was Ursula the Sea Witch from Aladin, just kidding. Gotta keep you on your toes. She is from Little Mermaid - here's what I was going for.

Here is my head shot (sorry about the horrible lighting)

Followed by gratuitous cleavage (the only shot I have where you can see my tenticles *winks*)


And just for fun a "Glamour Shot"


I tried to dye myself purple with food coloring, maybe a better way to do that would have been to thin the food coloring with vinegar instead of lotion?

On to this year's costume... "Oh no, I've lost my glasses!"
