striving for happiness...

so after reading this article, i was right when i called it that the oscar is jinxed for any married actress to win it!

so...we finally did it! we went to the rocky horror picture show. it was a lot of fun. i had really forgotton about the whole movie plot (if you call it one) but the audience sure didn't. it definitely has a cult following! the costumes were quite funny (even a greased up rocky) and i loved the props! but i still cannot get over what people say when watching the movie....how many times did they see it to remember what and when to say things?? it was crazy, but lots of fun!





and in other news....i was kind of bitching about how cold and gross it was in the last week but i have had a change of heart since seeing the snow. i know it makes for crappy driving conditions but i got the feeling of skiing in the air...ski season is just around the corner and i am pumped!!!

have a good week guys!

so i found this trailer and looks freaking good!! especially the last statement by natalie maines....ahhhh

okay so i was watching gilmore girls on tuesday nite and rory was talking to logan about logan's pitch to these bigwigs and how great it was. and yadda yadda yadda logan says yeah but really it is like myspace. what the heck is myspace....i ask the question in hopes that you can answer since you posted a link of myspace! :)

that is my post for this blog thursday!

Must share my new favourite song of the day - it's by Foy Vance and it's called 'Homebird'. It was on an episode of Grey's Anatomy and you can hear it here on his myspace. It should play automatically on the music player.
Hope you enjoy it!

I know its been a while and you're probably not even checking this anymore, but I thought I'd post a little update of my life and what's been going on:

1. I've become even more crazy about sewing that I am going to start doing hand sewing - Jeaninne, you may scoff at me now for being a grandma, but just wait til you see my first sampler!
2. Sal and I totally pigged out on pizza friday night and watched a little action flick you probably haven't heard about but was really good: 'Running Scared' with Paul Walker (*sigh*...dreamboat)
3. Work is better this week - personalities haven't been clashing up in my little workspace, but there is a massive exhibit that has become the bane of my existence
4. I'm not dressing up this hallowe'en as I am taking a stand against the man (I'll go into detail later on)
5. I have officially read 3 books so far this month: 'Le Divorce' by Diane Johnson, 'the Footprints of God' by Greg Iles, and 'The Curious Incident of the Dog at Night' by Mark Haddon (I think?!?) 6. Mustard Seed is still going strong, although I'm a bit upset I haven't been getting the cat calls and marriage proposals like Tracey has!
7. We got our wedding photos from Caley and I can't wait to get them printed - they look so cute! And her little baby is so tiny - I'm trying for Sal to get mother's urge...not happening yet!
8. Sal is still as busy as ever with school - classes for him end at the end of November.
9. I'm slightly starting to feel the giddyness of Christmas as I heard on tv last night about the Festival of Trees (I don't go, but it's all about Christmas Trees!!)
10. I'm still loving Grey's Anatomy, but I can't talk to Dennis about it because he calls everybody on the show whores! And Lost? I know last week's episode was confusing, but it was still really good. Can't wait to see what Sawyer sees with Fenry...yowza!!

So that's about it for now - what's new with you?

p.s. check out this website: fluideffect - it has a ton of celeb portrait with before and after the airbrushing...some of them are scary!

okay so in the papers recently george from grey's says that he is gay...and apparently it came out like this because of this arguement where some not so nice word were uttered in george's direction...oooo scandalous!!

i'm back!! although i really have nothing to say. still having fun at work...doing the mustard seed thang...and gathering around for craft night with the tootsie rolls (ha ha-case) or as jeaninne says the titsie rolls!! sicko! lol

i actually saw a fabulous movie on saturday-departed...freaking awesome. you know i really do love leonardo dicaprio. i know there was the whole overhype titanic thing, but really what a great actor!! very cool movie.

ooooo and in other exciting news i made cinnamon buns from scratch. apparently (according to my father) they need more butter and cinnamon next time. well i will try them again on sunday!

have a good weekend guys...
talk to you later with more eventful news!

Hello Girlies,

I was surfing the net this morning and came across this site which is made by two German girls. The link below is of their site but if you scroll down it is all videos of them lip syncing to pop songs. It is strangely addicting!

Exciting news:
Sarah potentially might have her baby today...Waiting to hear...

This is mostly just for me when I want the link to play Dynomite!

I also play on POPCAP games sometimes - I really love Insaniquarium!

Check out LOST spoilers and recaps here! It's updated pretty regularly and includes stuff from tons of tv shows!

all alone at work today, and I know I've said it before, but it is SO HARD getting motivated when there's nobody else around (Jeaninne, I know you know how I feel!) So I've spent the majority of my lunch hour looking up my new internet-obsession. CRAFT WEBSITES!!! I told Lynette that someday I'd like to be a stay-at-home mom so all I'd do would be to sew and quilt and bake. She pretty much laughed and scoffed in my face and said "MAYBE with the first one!" I'll show her...

So who's excited about tonight's premiere? I'm going to have to take an hour out of my sewing time to watch LOST - they had a recap of last season on tv on the weekend which was nice. The leader of the Others is really creepy, but I'm excited to see what it's all about! Tomorrow night I'm supposed to be shooting some event at work so I'm not going to be able to catch Grey's Anatomy - Trace, will you tape it for me?

Anyway, as per usual, here's some stuff I've been checking out lately:
SONGS
Homebird by Foy Vance (this is on the 2nd Grey's soundtrack, but it's been playing on the internet radion station I listen to.)
How to Save A Life by the Fray
Lou Reed by the Little Willies

WEBSITES
the purl bee - a newsletter that give sewing and crafty tutorials for free
whipup.net - same thing as above
BarbieMartini - funny celeb stuff plus martini recipes!
I can't stop playing this!

And one last one...the Saskatchewan Limousine:


enjoy!
