~ Crazy ~

While out enjoying the beautiful weekend, we met two guys. Two guys who had big kayaks, and were dressed head to toe in protective gear. Not safety protective, but cold protective. See, these guys thought that it would be a good idea to throw themselves off the side of a cliff into freezing glacier waters....you know, for fun.

They drew quite a crowd as they analyzed the waters, planned the drop....tested their theories. Then suited up, hugged each other in case this was the last time moment they'd be alive. Then shot themselves off the water fall. The first guy did an impressive fall that ended with him upside down, while strapped to his kayak. That was a little nerve racking...but he freed himself at last to the applause of the impromptu fans. The second guy topped him by also making an impressive drop and staying up right. All breathed a sigh of relief. Cause none of us wanted to jump in to save them, glacier fed waters.......freezy.

We spoke to them after their death defying leap. This was their first try going over a water fall, and only the 4th time kayaking. Pretty steep learning curve.

I'm an adventurous girl....not one to shy away from a challenge....but, well....no thanks.

~ You HAVEN'T got Mail ~

Is email ruling your life?

I didn't think I was an email junkie...take it or leave it...that's me. I mean, I enjoy a good laugh from the endless amount of stuff that people send me. I also use it for work, mostly to avoid speaking to people. I have clients I haven't seen or actually spoken to in years.... all email.

So I'm not addicted or anything....

That is....

Unless the email isn't working!!

Are you supposed to be in the fetal position on the floor shaking when this happens?

~ TAKE!! ~

Have you ever done indoor climbing? May I say.....FUN! If you have, then you understand the title of this post, if not, well....tough luck Charlie, please try again.

This is a way fun activity that I will be pariticpating in on regular basis, and hopefully get to the point that I climb outside, on actual rocks....or mountains even (woohoo) However, it must be said...the nether region strapping....ouchy.

~ Think I'll buy a lottery ticket ~

So, hypothetically speaking, if you get a ticket for speeding through a construction zone....while talking on your cell phone....(not me of course) then that ticket will be HUGE. And the cop will not be very friendly, even if you act like a dumb girl (which has gotten me out of tickets before) or if you flirt with him (that only worked when I was 17)....

BUT

If the cop then fills out the ticket wrong, then when you call in to pay the ticket..... (ha ha ha) it's invalid and you don't have to pay!!!!!

Gonna buy a lottery ticket today, the universe is smiling up on me.

~ Laugh Often ~

The blog has a new title....as you've likely noticed. Three aspect of my life that I think are important.

Eat well, Laugh Often, Love Much.

Today we shall look at laugh often. Papers and pencils out please, turn to page 10 of your workbooks.

Wikipedia - Laughter is an audible expression or appearance of happiness, or an inward feeling of joy and orgasmic stimulation (laughing on the inside). It may ensue (as a physiological reaction) from jokes, tickling, and other stimuli. Inhaling nitrous oxide can also induce laughter; other drugs, such as cannabis, can also induce episodes of strong laughter. Strong laughter can sometimes bring an onset of tears or even moderate muscular pain.

Okay then....if I'd have known that's what it was.....I think I'll avoid it. Seems it's not all what I had previously assumed....and sounds also slightly uncomfortable and moderately invasive. Didn't realize that drugs were involved in laughter, learn something new everyday.

So why do we laugh? Most often it's at people who think they're funny. At least that's me. Many in my family think they're hilarious....one in particular...who shall remain nameless....but starts with an L and is a boy. I laugh at him...he thinks he's funny....I laugh AT him...

Another reason people laugh may be because the situation warrants it. You don't want to hurt their feelings. After all, they're trying to be funny, though possibly not achieving. This has also happened to me, see previous point to pinpoint the person......who shall remain nameless.

Now there are the rare times that the conversation, action or result of acting is actually funny. But that doesn't happen much....mostly I'm still laugh AT him...not WITH him.

And finally.... I laugh because people look funny. Plain and simple....if you look funny, I will laugh at you....no worries.

Thus (yes Jason, I said Thus) ends our lesson on the importance of laughing (at your brother) next week we'll learn about laughing at people who really are funny.

~ Deserted Island and other Nonsense ~

So I was recently reading Clever Girl goes Blog, whom I enjoy... you should check her out. You thought I was quick witted and crazy....wow, I'm an amateur compared to her. She's got it goin' on.

Anyway, she recently posted about the top 5 necessities if stranded on a deserted island. Now, I figure there are two types of deserted islands....

This one... with one 's'.And one that contains these....with two 's'......

Now those are both enjoyable, and I'd like to participate in either.

But since we're talking DeSerted Island, here are 5 (frivolous and ridiculous) things I think i would need.


1. Personal Blender

This seems like a necessity. Cause whether a Deserted Island...or a Desserted Island, both could involve fruit. And nothin says yum more than a smoothy. Now, the ice issue may cause a bit of a hurdle...

2. Ice...and a Delivery Boy

The smoothies are just going to be juice unless there is ice. I'm sure there will be a small village somewhere, oh, except it supposed to be a deserted island. Whatever, it's my island, I'll decide. So if someone could please ride this contraption each day to deliver said ice....and maybe this guy could be the rider. I don't know him...or anything about...but really, I'm only looking for 'Candy' to delivery the ice anyway, not an explanation of the universe.

3. Hair Straightener

I have hair issues. See the blog banner, and the nice sleek smooth hair? Ya, that is not how it sprouts from my noggin. No...NO. Curly and frizzy is what I'm naturally blessed with. THAT takes blow drying, straightening and product. I realize you're thinking that a hair straightener will be useless on an island without electricity.... who's blog is this?!!!! Not yours.

4. Electricity

HELLO!!! Need I say more.

5. I'm out....there's a plethora of other items that I'm sure I'd need. But so many to choose from. I'll ponder.

What would you take?

~ Welcome Mr. Potatoe Head ~

This is Mr. T Potatoe Head. He is having a great day...rockin' the accessories and the 'do'. He will be the rep for the new blog. Wanna sling the poo poo at me....gonna have to pass by 'The PH". So don't....he's tough, he can take ya.

New blog looks like the old blog.... I know. Difference....nothin' much. Still me rambling about nonsense and generally giving my opinion on random points of life.

If you're here to get details on my life.....please proceed to the closest exit. Wanna ask a question....welcome to dinner, please take a seat. Wanna give an opinion....the comment box is on the wall. All are invited and expected. But take the responsiblity by not hiding behind anonymous. I know there is gossip flying like a fat pink pig. Some may be accurate, likely most is not. Life is complicated, decision are not always understood or accepted.

So keep your arms and legs inside the bus, fasten your seat belt....and hold on for the ride.
