It has passed

I want to thank all of you out there who sent me well wishes and kept me in your prayers while I was down with the flu. I feel tons better this morning, save for some lingering sniffling, occasional coughing, etc. Hopefully none of you will get this stuff that has plagued this household. lol Guess its time for the cats to get it now...lol

Enough with the Bush bashing

I'm no fan of W., let's get clear from the start, but the man is out of office and it's time to let bygones be bygones. So, you can imagine my dismay when I click on article regarding how an NCAA basketball game was cancelled because the conference failed to assign referees and read the comments on the message board and they're all attributing this to Bush and WMD's. WTF?!? I'm still a little woozy from meds, so I can't go on a diatribe about this, but you can imagine how idiotic this is, but then again, it seems whenever something goes wrong they blame it on Bush now.

Another actress gains a few lbs and the press jumps on her

There was a time when I had the hugest crush on Jessica Simpson, then it dwindled down to she got annoying, then last year she showed up at Cowboys games that they lost...do we see a pattern here? Having said that, I wouldn't wish the treatment she's gotten in the press this week on my worst enemy.

I can't recall what it was that I was watching last night, but it was some sort of news program in which they were discussing Jess, her weight, it being a slow news week, etc.

Personally, it looks like she's put on a few (probably from eating too much chili at the chili cook off she's performing at...lol), but so what? Is there something wrong with that? As long as she's comfortable in her skin. Some reports have said that this is a publicity stunt by her dad. If that is so, then that is really sad and not good for her health. Personally, I have to agree with everyone that says that the outfit she's wearing doesn't do her any favors, either.

Tell me, what do you think? Is this the usual press jumping on actress who gained weight? Slow news week? Something else?

Reality TV invades Dallas Cowboys

It is no secret that I am no fan of reality TV, so to hear that one of my favorite NFL teams, the Dallas Cowboys are considering doing a reality show just has me dumbfounded.

I don't know all the details and last I heard it was just in the works, but knowing owner Jerry Jones, it's just a matter of time as long as he can make money. The premise of the show is that a bunch of guys will compete for a spot of the team roster.

I'm a little torn on this, because on one hand, you're giving a shot to someone who never would have gotten one otherwise. On the other hand, someone who may have just been on the cusp on making the team and might actually be better than the winner won't make it because of this guarantee.

The other bit of reality coming out of Dallas is that VH1 is producing a reality show about T.O.(Terrell Owens). Based on his personality, I think this could be interesting, especially since it's during the off season, but if they pick it up for a second season and cameras start floating around the Cowboys locker room in the fall following T.O. around...well, let's just say it won't be pretty. Sportswriters already jump on the man if he forgets to cover his mouth after he sneezes. Yes, I'm exaggerating, but not as much as I would like to.

All this aside, I honestly think that Jerry Jones is more concerned with creating a sideshow than winning another Super Bowl, and as a Cowboy fan, its very disconcerting. Hopefully I'm wrong, though.

Fighting this feeling

For the past few days, the little woman has been exhibiting flu-like symptoms (headache, runny nose, sore throat, etc). Well, today I woke up with those symptoms and right now I feel like...pardon my french..RAW ASS!

On top of all this the temp is dropping like a rock. No wonder folks can't stay well around here...well, maybe it's just me. I'm very susceptible to sickness when the temp drastically changes. Always have been. On top of that, I work with students all day, so germs are far from being a rare occurrence on my person.

Oh well, just a couple more hours then I can go home, get in bed, drink some juice and get some rest. Hopefully tomorrow I'll be feeling better. *crosses fingers*

Should I be surprised?

This is SO me

You are The Hermit

Prudence, Caution, Deliberation.

The Hermit points to all things hidden, such as knowledge and inspiration,hidden enemies. The illumination is from within, and retirement from participation in current events.

The Hermit is a card of introspection, analysis and, well, virginity. You do not desire to socialize; the card indicates, instead, a desire for peace and solitude. You prefer to take the time to think, organize, ruminate, take stock. There may be feelings of frustration and discontent but these feelings eventually lead to enlightenment, illumination, clarity.

The Hermit represents a wise, inspirational person, friend, teacher, therapist. This a person who can shine a light on things that were previously mysterious and confusing.
