Well if we must, we must....

Maybe it's the holiday season....

but personally I prefer binding, over reindeer, games.....

Things we wanted for Christmas....

A Joan Crawford doll

A landing pad in new York



Robert

But alas, did not get

Vacation wear..


Remember girls, for white water rafting or jungle travel a jeweled thong with matching cuffs is absolutely de rigueur!

Are you a vital chick with that zappy look?


Or are you just a choppy bird with no tiger appeal?

Well are you??????

And you'll never be bothered by pesky holiday guests again!


Mmmmm! Canned luncheon meat, CHOPPED!

Not to mention, garnished with poisonous-when-ingested holly...

Todays insidious tune running though my head!



At least it's keeping me company as I staff the office all by my lonesome!

Now if it was sterling...


I'd be rubbing it on every cheek!

Who knew?




Geez! Maybe I should have looked into joining the camera club in high school, it might not have been so lonely.....

Your special algorithim needs adjusting!

As if the holidays weren't disturbing enough, today's inbox brought the following message from OKCupid:

The tradition of giving people presents on Christmas goes back to the very first one, when the three wise men brought baby Jesus an XBox Kinect. His body was the controller. And it was Sweet.

Ever since then the 25th of December has been celebrated by Christians and economists the world over, and we thought it only proper to join in the fun. Starting today and going through the holiday, we're giving YOU your perfect CHRISTMAS match. Seriously, we developed a special algorithm just for this.

NSman43 is today's match:

Yes, he's reading a similar message about you right now. He's cool, He's cute. Why not drop him a line?

All the best and, seriously, Merry Christmas,

Chris Coyne

Not to sound vain and self centered, but seriously??? this is my perfect Christmas match??????

Eat right, feel right!



I'm over a cold, I had been fighting and so very happy to be back in the gym and back on my regular food regimen. It always amazes me how drastically my mood alters after a few missed workouts or when I veering from the diet plan!

It's all fun & dames till someone puts out an eye....


Quick show of hands, who here has been to a yip-in lately?

I'd keep mine next to my new Christmas scale!

I am torn between the "debonair" and the "hostess".

Monday, December 20, 2010

Just in time for those New Year's resolutions!




Truthfully I would love a new scale for Christmas.

Like we didn't see this coming...


Is it me, or has Bruce become a hell of a lot more buff than when Adam West used to play him? Not that I mind, I'm just sayin'

I'll admit to the fact that...

I'm getting rather bored with my diet.

Who it was....

Well,
We had no correct answers(or guesses for that matter!) as to who our mystery baby was The little cherub grew up to be none other than the lovely Mae West...

I'd just finished "She Always Knew How: Mae West, a Personal Biography" (quote: I was never vulgar. The word for me was suggestive.") So she'd naturally been on my mind....

Riddle me this.....

'Twas whispered in Heaven, 'twas muttered in Hell,
And echo caught faintly the sound as it fell;
On the confines of Earth, 'twas permitted to rest,
And in the depths of the ocean its presence confessed;
'Twill be found in the sphere when 'tis riven asunder,
Be seen in the lightning and heard in the thunder;
'Twas allotted to man with his earliest breath,
Attends him at birth and awaits him at death,
Presides o'er his happiness, honor and health,
Is the prop of his house and the end of his wealth.
In the heaps of the miser, 'tis hoarded with care,
But is sure to be lost on his prodigal heir;
It begins every hope, every wish it must bound;
With the husbandman toils, and with monarchs is crowned;
Without it the soldier and seaman may roam,
But woe to the wretch who expels it from home!
In the whispers of conscience its voice will be found,
Nor e'er in the whirlwind of passion be drowned;
'Twill soften the heart; but though deaf be the ear,
It will make him acutely and instantly hear.
Set in shade, let it rest like a delicate flower;
Ah! Breath on it softly, it dies in an hour.

I Don't Know Enough About You - Peggy Lee



Running through my head this rainy afternoon.
