Okay - back to the usual

I know, my past couple of posts were *strange* to say the least. Guess I just wanted to get the stupid out of my system, before getting back to "real entries". You know, my being a major nerd and pretending to be cool, badass and whatnot.

So, yes ... onto work stuff, and life stuff.

Life is going fairly well. I've decided that when I grow up, I want my hair to be the same color(s) as Gina Glocksen - one of the American Idol contestants. First, she's a cutie with a really good voice, and second - I love the chocolate brown with cherry red colors. Doing that, my hair would be the closest to my original color (mud brown) than it's been in over 15 years! (If that makes any sense.)

Speaking of "American Idol" - is it just me, or are the boys in that kind of mediocre mode again?

Now, for something inspired by aeryn42. What is your favorite recipe? I've got two: Lemon Baked Chicken and Garlic Mashed Potatoes.

These go really well with garlic mashers.

So, how about you? What's your favorite recipe? And would you mind sharing it? *asks very nicely* :-)

A few things before the night ends

First - today (2/27) is my dad's birthday! :-) You know, I'm glad that I've decided to make amends - and an attempt to rebuild a seemingly fractious relationship. (That's for another time altogether.) Also, I think it probably bugs my mom to a degree ... lol

Second - this might just be me, but have you ever called someplace, been put on hold and actually *liked* the songs playing on the hold music?

I ask, because this happened to me today when I called one of my companies - I was almost singing along to "Try A Little Tenderness" and was admittedly upset when my call was answered, interrupting the song! (I was so tempted to say, "I love the song on your hold music ... could you give me another 2 minutes? Please?" Of course, that would *never* happen, since their calls are recorded/ monitored for quality purposes. Blah.)


That's all! Good night my Lovelies - sweet dreams! :)
