Today is my mom's Birthday. Happy Birthday mom!!!
Tomorrow is Thanksgiving!!! Happy Thanksgiving!!!
Tonight I have to work, hopefully it will be calm and quiet. I really prefer to work when it isn't too busy, because when it is busy the crazies tend to come out. Seriously, the crazy people show up from nowhere. I am beginning to think that a psychology degree should be required for all retail employees. That way they can know how to deal with the nuts that are out to shop.
Oh, and the happy news, I will be in MI this weekend! Hurrah! for three day weekends!

One Reel at a Time
Since the last time I posted I have watched the following movies:
Sunshine Cleaning was amusing and good, but not what I thought it would be. In fact I was a little disappointed in it.
New York, New York was terrible. I was really excited for it after reading about it and adding it to my Netflix list but they didn't talk about the abusive relationship between the two leads. I am sorry, I just can't get into films that glamorize bad relationships.
My favorite of the three was the Blindside. It was so good. I can't believe it's a true story. Sandra Bullock was great in the film.
My mom and Aunt came for a visit for the weekend. It was fun. We shopped. I feel like I live in malls and shopping centers, oh wait, I kind of do...

Holiday Homicide
This year I may have to do something I've never done before.
Kill Santa.
I know it sounds drastic, but really I can't stand that jolly little elf who stands on the display table singing "Jingle Bell Rock". If one more person pushes that little toy's button and makes him sing I am going to scream. Not only do I have to deal with crazy people at work, but now I have to deal with customers who are determined to drive me insane.
There is nothing jolly about hearing the same song 5 million times a day.

I love your hair. What's going on there?
So I can't stop watching this:
I know you posted it a few days ago Toi, but I can't stop listening to it!
Is it just me or does she look like Amy Winehouse at the very end? (and on that note I think you should all know that Foxfire spelling check wants me to change Winehouse to Whorehouse)
Life has been pretty uneventful the past few days. Basically, I spend my time at work and try to figure out how I have become "that girl" and to avoid it in the future. Gosh, growing up sucks. When did life become so complicated?
Sorry, Moi, you are probably the only one that got that.
Good news!
My mom and aunt will be visiting next weekend! Yay!!!
P.S. I just re-watched "Mame" with Lucille Ball. Lucy can't sing, but it's a fun movie. Bea Arthur plays her best friend Vera. I want an Aunt just like her.

Sunny Days...
I have a plethora of stories to share.
But right now all I want to say is:
Happy 40th Anniversary Sesame Street!!!!!!
I LOVE this program. When flipping through the channels, I still stop and catch a few minutes with Big Bird and the gang.
Can you tell me how to get to Sesame Street?

Don't eat road kill....
Aussie and I did lunch today.
It was yummy.
I had turtle soup.
It was tasty.
But I feel bad for the turtle...
VEHBD has been crazy.
But Chicago has been very cool lately.
I almost feel like it's *my* city.
But if it doesn't last, there is always NYC, right?

Whoa, watch the pretzels!
The weekend has passed too fast.
And now I can't believe it's November. Before we know it snow will be on the ground. The only good thing about cold weather is the accessories. I look good in hats, but they leave hat hair. So I guess the bad cancels out the good?
At the Halloween party I attended I was a witness to Chex mix/pretzel abuse.
Seriously.
The Hostess of the party lost her ipod. She accused her multiple guests of taking it. When she realized she wasn't going to get answers she started cleaning. This cleaning involved consolidation of snack foods. Unfortunately, the pretzels reminded her of the ipod and she threw them into the Chex mix. It was quite dramatic.
And very comical.
But then I was scolded for laughing.
Gosh, some people are really attached to material possessions.
Look at the apple pie I made:
It is so yummy. I love making pies! I wish you all could partake in the cinnamony goodness.
