Linda and I saw The Muppet Movie this afternoon... It was total awesomeness!! I will definitely see it again, and own it, and... well, I seriously hope they bring the Muppet Show back! Good, clean, fun entertainment!

Happy Thanksgiving to all my wonderful friends, both far and near. I wish you all a full heart, bountiful table, and blessings for a wonderful holiday.

Hmmm... Is this a good deal?

Did I get blocked? When I click on a link to view my responses on my post, it takes me to a search engine, saying it can't find my page. FMR!!

Bacon

That's all... nothing more can be said.

Something doesn't feel quite right... Oh, it must be that it's Saturday... and I'm AT WORK! Oh well, I wanna get paid too. Oh, and for anyone who watches American Idol (Trixy, you are the reason I even recalled this dude) James Durbin has a song (possibly an album to go with it) that plays on SiriusXm Octane (hard rock), called "Stand Up". It's good... find it. Listen.

Tornado sirens are going off... interesting.

Food show was awesome!! I found some knives that I soooo want. And there's a spirit (liquor) by Kettle One, chipotle vodka under the brand name of Harbor One. Mmmm, bought the bloody Mary mix that goes with it.

Off to bed... I'm going to a food show tomorrow, and have to be up north to meet my friend at 9 am. Woo hoo!!

Lasso the Moon...

What is it you want, Mary? What do you want? You want the moon? Just say the word and I'll throw a lasso around it and pull it down. Hey. That's a pretty good idea. I'll give you the moon, Mary.

I'll take it. Then what?

Well, then you can swallow it, and it'll all dissolve, see... and the moonbeams would shoot out of your fingers and your toes and the ends of your hair... am I talking too much?

Picture Perfect - "Bokeh"

The theme this week is a use of the technique called "bokeh". It's where you have a sharply focused subject with blurred, dreamy like backgrounds.

I caught this one at Dawes Aboretum with my Minolta "film" SLR.

I don't have any exif info... I guess I should start recording that, huh?

A Time to Consider

I have been dreaming of a moment like this . . .

  Time after time waking to the reality of being alone.
  Time after time of reaching for the coldness beside me.
  I have nothing but time to consider what you are to me.

I have been longing for a feeling like this . . .
  Day after day of reaching for the stars,
  Day after day of falling short of perfection.
  I have nothing but time to consider what you give to me.

I have been looking for a love like this . . .
  Year after year of finding only empty souls.
  Year after year – dreaming of something more.
  I have nothing but time to consider your love.

I got my blood test results back... it's a boy. No, really... My A1C is 6.4 (normal is 6.3). Cholesterol is 187 (below 200 is good) although the mix between good and bad (HDL and LDL respectively) are outta whack. My mean glucose level is 132 (was 150+ three months ago). Only two real issues here... one being the low "good cholesterol... I have to increase my exercising. Ugh. Two is the high TSH levels... she's increasing the dosage on my thyroid meds. I'd say overall, the results are good. :D

Syd

Tonight was Syd's final band/flag twirling concert and banquet.I've got some pics, but I'm a bit tired. I didn'tget a lot of sleep last night, and running full-speed busy at work to leave in time to get Syd to the banquet has left me... worn out.

So I leave you with this until I can get my camera back out and upload some more pics...
