Saturday Night Loserville........

It was a gorgeous day on the beach today and I spent it inside dicking around with my new digital camera (happy b-day from sis), my iPod (thank you Geek Squad! Who knew the hard drive can crash in an iPod?), and working on a manicure and pedicure.

I'm playing golf all day tomorrow in tournament and I'm staring at my favorite golf skirt that is wadded up in a ball in the dirty clothes pile.

Even bigger loserville is a bottle of ice cold pinot noir looks so delish in the fridge that I'll probably drink it all.

Did I mention I'm alone? Isn't that the first sign of being a lush? Drinking alone?

Or is it posting on a travel message board about what a loser I am?

BTW, does anyone know much about digital cameras?

No. When you learn something let me know. We just bought a new digital camera last weekend. Did yours come with an instruction book as big as the Bible??? Yikes!

It's friggin raining here...AGAIN! More of the same tomorrow. Hope to get to the beach on Monday.

Well, here we are again. I am sitting here waiting for "Dancing with Dogs". Unless Plushy comes in with his plaid Jeff Gordon capris, I may be tonight's winner.

Well I just got finished watching "Failure to Launch" with the DH. All through the movie he kept saying "Can't you see our son doing this?". Yea, just want I want to hear! Geez.

I already looked for Failure To Launch on Movies on Demand because I'm too lazy to drive to Blockbuster or join Netflix.

What is 'Dancing With Dogs'?

Please cmcfong, don't be a hold out.

So that you don't think that I am always in Loserville on a Saturday nite, I'm a bit under the weather. Some sort of flu bug.

Otherwise, I'd be out painting the town red, and having a grand ole....

Well, I don't want to brag or anything, LOL.

House Hunters, anyone?

"Dancing with Dogs' is a new sport for dogs and owners. Apparently Animal Planet has a whole show devoted to it at 8:00 tonight. I have taught one of my dogs to do the Hokey Pokey (she is a therapy dog and the kids and elderly folks we visit love to see this) but we need to move on. I am thinking salsa with some of GoT's ipod tunes.....

I was transfixed on the show "What Not To Wear". It's sad and comical at the same time. Remember stirrup pants?

I'll join y'all in Loserville tonight. DH is working until 11 p.m. (although we might go out then) and I'm technically working from home...at least until my crude oil ship starts loading in the next hour or so. I'll be sending her up to you East Coasters for refining tomorrow.

So, I sit here with my laptop, in front of the TV, contemplating a poison on the patio soon, but have none here at home. Guess I might have to make a poison run or else join GoTravel with her bottle of Pinot Noir.

Hi, ladies! Just checking in between our usual Saturday afternoon trip to Borders and, I hope, eventually going out for dinner. My husband always listens to Prarie Home Companion. And, unfortunately, it's now followed by some local music critics show that he likes as well. So I'm not going anywhere for a while! Except possibly to the grocery store for a couple of things I realized we need. Now, can you really get much more "loserly" than the grocery store on Saturday night?!

Statia, I'm sorry, you can't technically be a "loser" if you can actually go out with your husband at 11pm! D So you'll have to settle and be a pseudo-loser, LOL.

cmcfong, did you see Kelly's makeover today?? Wasn't that amazing?

My daughter loves What Not to Wear! We give her a hard time about her addiction to TLC. But, I have to confess, I've gotten rather fond of that show myself!

I saw Kelly's makeover last night. Sadly I am a doubleheader loser this weekend.

Hi CAPH. I feel that since I've watched a few episodes of "A Baby's Story" I can competently deliver a baby at any time.

Well I'll join the club too. It was an absolutely gorgeous day in central Indiana. Low humidity and 80 for a high, just about perfect.

I mowed. I pulled up oak saplings from the gazillion acorns that fell last fall. I stained a baby gate to put across my porch entrance to keep the "nephew" dog in when my brother visits.

It's finally cocktail hour so I shook myself up a good ole VO Manhattan. I'm drinking alone. Though there are the voices in my head and my internet buddies... I live in the boondocks. I infinitely prefer drinking alone to driving 35 minutes to the closest bar, drinking, then driving back. Just say no to drinking and driving.

I don't know much about digital cameras yet GoT. Found out enough it's going to cost me a new computer to go digital. I need USB 2.0 and a DVD burner. Might as well buy new rather than pay the money to upgrade.

"Technology is Evil." Words to live by.

Well, Statia, let me think....
....
....
Do you believe that I could competently deliver a baby? EhHem, apparently that makes some people laugh on these boards. Wink Wink

I hope so. I would hate to think that all of those hours of TLC watching would be a waste because then I would be classified a LOSER!

Gosh, I need to rest now.
