Cartersville


Look at me with the cutouts of the peanut farmer president and his lovely wife Rosalyn! Doesn't that impress you and make you want to be my friend?
I am hanging out in Georgia after NCYC just chilling with my cousin and his family in Cartersville, hence the picture.
But I didn't have to tell you that, you are bright and hip and with it.
Tonight I get to help give out candy to the little boogers when they come to the door. We never get trick or treaters at my house cause of our long scary dark driveway. But that doesn't stop us from buying 5 pounds of candy just in case. This might be the year that a limo bus of trick or treaters breaks down in front of our house and how would it look if when they rang our doorbell we had nothing to give? It would look pretty bad. We could give them paper clips, but kids don't want paper clips, unless they are weird kids and we don't want weird kids hanging around our house.
I miss the days when it was socially acceptable for me to dress up on Halloween. Others frown upon people my age dressing up and ringing doorbells and asking for things unless it's for a charity. If you have your own kids and they are with you and also dressed up it's ok. But if it's just you dressed up like Darth Vader on a Tuesday in March going door to door, that’s awkward and people are going to start talking and you might have to “go away” for awhile and “rest”. Halloween is always a confusing day for me because I see people on the street and wonder, is that their outfit or just a lifestyle choice? You never want to say, “hey, that’s a funny looking costume you have on Bob” cause maybe Bob is just funny looking to begin with and he doesn’t even realize it’s Halloween. You also don’t want to dress up like a doctor and hang out in a hospital because someone might be going into labor or need a lobotomy and mistake you for the real deal and you would be put on the spot to jump into action. And if faced with the choice between looking silly by explaining that it’s a Halloween outfit and performing open heart surgery, well Mister pass me the scalpel, I have a life to save.

Pumpkin flu

It's fall here in San Diego. The chill of an afternoon under 70 degrees has us all running to put on a sweater and make some hot apple cider to drink by the fire. Just wait till next month when the nights can turn bitterly cold and get down into the (gasp) 50's!

Tomorrow night after a show in Oceanside I'll take a red-eye to Atlanta for NCYC. I get into Atlanta at 5:30am or 3:30 San Diego time, oh no, is that day light savings night? No that's Saturday night. People in Hawaii in Arizona never have to worry about day light savings, I bet they feel jipped.

I am looking forward to Georgia because I watched a lot of Designing Women growing up. I'll look for Susan Sugarbaker and her sister Julia, I wonder if they still have a interior design firm?

On a sad note, my pumpkin has the stomach flu.

My Dogs Think I'm Cool

Both of my dogs think I can do no wrong.
They think I am just the coolest person ever. They want me to be president. If they could hold on to a pen they would write poems about me, not good poetry mind you but they would be from the heart. I think this is why I like them more than most people I meet. Not all people are dumb but most are not as nice as my dogs.

I think this might be character flaw. Not in me but in most people.

2005 3 Day



3 days
60 miles
10.3 million dollars raised
and
blisters the size of a golden retriever's head

Holy blisters Bat Man!

Tomorrow is the first day of the Susan G Komen 3 day breast cancer walk and I am not ready.

Now I have said that the last 3 times I have walked 60 miles but this time I really mean it...This is going to suck out loud!

I have to be up for the walk in 12 hours and I am not packed yet and I'm not real concerned. If I play my cards right I'll get heat stroke and can ride in the back of an ambulance and probably meet my Irish Catholic Doctor husband at the hospital...a girl can dream.

Just my luck I'll wear a hat and drink enough water and be just fine. Every year I do manage to tear a ligament in my left ankle, it's more annoying than anything else. When you are such a finely tuned athlete as myself you can bounce back from such things rather quickly.

There are 6,000 people signed up for this thing and I know they will all want to use the same port-a-potty the same time I do.

Stupid breast cancer, stupid 60 miles, stupid port-a-potty.
At least I have a winning attitude!

Ole Joke

Ole was driving down the street in a sweat because he had an important meeting and couldn't find a parking place.

Looking up towards heaven, he said "Lord, take pity on me. If you find me a parking place I will go to Church every Sunday for the rest of my life and give up liquor."

As he finished saying it, miraculously, a parking place appeared. Ole looked up again and said "Never mind. I found one."

Fun, Fun, Fun

I'm still having fun in Phoenix with the guitar playing Canadian, St. Louis Steve and of course my boyfriend Sergio who is a year older today.

Raise Puppies

Children's Theatre = bad idea.

Bringing children to children's theatre = worst idea in the history of worst ideas.

Today I paid for gas with quarters...I am trashy, hear me roar!

Palm Desert

Just got back from Palm Desert where I had a really fun time playing golf and soaking up the skin cancers rays. Off to Arizona this weekend for a conference, I must really like the heat or maybe it's the cool desert boogers that you get. Meanwhile it's snowing in Bismarck, North Dakota.

Auntie Poop

Tomorrow morning I will be responsible for getting my two nephews off to school.

God help us all.

I Don't Like Spam!

Sketchy

I had fun being in a sketch show Friday night. Very different from stand up cause you have to actually "work with others". Good in a way because if the whole ship goes down your not the captain, you still drown but it's not all your fault.

Today might be the day I start editing the World Youth Day movie, but we shall see. 7 hours of Europe footage makes my head hurt. Besides if the Chargers win I have that whole end of the world theory and then I won't have to worry about the movie anyway.
