Cannot. Turn. Away.

I have sunk to the level of planning my week around Dancing With the Stars.
Tonight, however, is a new low.
I voted.

Well, we all need a diversion sometimes, don't we? DWTS is pretty harmless, as diversions go!

Personally, I'm feeling a little lost. My diversion, "The Apprentice," has ended. What to do, what to do?

I watched DWTS for the first time ever last week, in hopes of finding a new diversion. I found it fascinating in a sort of car-crash morbid-curiosity kind of way. Eeek! My kids love Billy Ray Cyrus on "Hannah Montana" but that man cannot dance, can he? (However, my own bumbling attempts to do Jazzercise help me to have compassion on those brave folks.) Hope you're having fun with that!

He is a terrible dancer, but her just has so much *heart*...
I would like to see him stick around a little longer, because he is fun to watch. My votes, however, all go to Joey. *sigh*

You could be sucked into the "Lost" vortex of "gee what will they us this week to keep us watching while never really telling us anything." I can't stop...maybe there is a 12 step program or something.

I shall never succumb to the power of "Lost"-- mostly because it is on at 10 now (way past my bedtime, you know). The new time has put a serious wrench in Jon's sleep schedule, but the upside is that we are always home in time on Convergence weeks!
The first step is to admit you have a problem...

Feast One Hundred Forty-six

Appetizer Name something you think is “the best.” Fisher's Popcorn is the best snack food. Ever. Soup On a scale of 1 to 10 (with 10 highest), how stressed are you today? Today was a 9.8 all the way. Fortunately, I have a super-understanding husband who lets me vent and gives me time to get over myself. Yay Jon! Salad What kind of cleanser do you use to wash your face? Until one week ago, when my eyelids swelled up, it was ProActiv . Now I am using Neutrogena . Anyone want some Proactiv? I have two unopened cleansers, and one each of the toner and repairing lotion. Ugh... Main Course Tonight is a blue moon ! What is something that you believe only happens “once in a blue moon.” Once in a blue moon I can get one over on my husband. Maybe. He's pretty quick-witted. Dessert When was the last time it rained where you live? I don't remember, but it has been a couple months. This is the Mojave, after all. We are actually coming up on our "monsoon season" in ...

I really don't see a problem with this...

So Bank of America is offering a credit card for people with no SS number. The idea is to tap into the rapidly growing Hispanic market. Of course, Michelle Malkin is outraged and thinks I should be, too. But I am not, and this is why: 1) I would rather see BOA open accounts with no SS# than with fraudulent SS# (which is what we know is occurring now). 2) BOA is letting the market drive its decisions. A novel idea for a capitalist nation?! I have read comment after comment about aiding and abetting. I just to do not see it. Does that mean that the gas station on the corner which sells gasoline to the landscapers is aiding and abetting? After all, they may be hiring illegal immigrants. I love how, instead of outrage that we are seeing no results at whatever it is our tax dollars are going to, we take frustrations out on corporate America. I would much rather see these people putting their money into our banks than carrying it around in their pockets (which, incidentally is what...

Into the wall

Image
My father-in-law is what some might call a NASCAR fan. We, on the other hand, have been known to put a race on for our afternoon nap. Something about the drone which helps us sleep. I like to watch the last few laps and the highlights (read: the wrecks). Those cars go, what 300-400 miles in any given race? Round and round and round. Really fast. It occurs to me that the slightest hesitation, the tiniest miscalculation could put a car into the wall. The drivers must trust their team to keep them and their cars in top shape. Ultimately, though, it doesn't matter how well put-together a machine is if the driver is not paying attention. I am thinking that my spiritual life is like that. (Not the round in circles part) I need a solid pit crew in my church family, but when it comes down to it, I have to take responsibility for my own spiritual growth. Becoming a part of Gracepoint has really brought this home for me. This weekend, we had the opportunity to reach out to the ...
