Any Suggestions?
Just a quick note to announce that tonight begins the Co-ed Kickball team I joined. It's the first season for this event where 4 teams will be vying for title of CHAMPION KICKBALLERS! We are the oldest players in the league...40ish. I'm a little apprehensive as I am the SLOWEST runner around! I suggested placing a chair between home plate and 1st base for a quick rest. Another teammate suggested placing a cooler of beer at 2nd base in order to re-hydrate. I'm open to all suggestions. Got any?

Did You Hear About This One...
Did anyone happen to hear about the voicemail Alec Baldwin left for his 11 year old daughter Ireland? The one where he called her a "pig" for not answering his pre-arranged phone call with her. The one where he told her he was going to show her what happens when she doesn't answer his calls. It's starting to become a little more clear to me why this custody battle between him and Kim Basinger is taking so long. I could almost bet that this was not an isolated incident. The courts have decided that Mr. Baldwin cannot be in contact with his daughter until a May 4th hearing...score one for the child! He did make a public apology and blamed the outburst on the fact that he has "been driven to the edge by years of parental alienation" Bullshit, I say! No excuse gives you a right to talk to your 11 year old child like that. Put that boy in some anger management classes. I hope he comes to term with his issues and can make some repair to his relationship with his daughter. If not, send him my way...I have a thing or two I'd like to tell him!

On Strike...
Let me just say that there are not too many people in this world who truly know the REAL you. I can honestly say that there are maybe 3-4 people who, for real, understand me. Maybe not understand, but accept. Accept and love. I get tired of trying to explain my point of view to people. I get pissed when people say "you're wrong" rather than "I disagree". I've decided that I am going to go on strike. I am going on strike from those who cannot make an attempt to listen to what I have to say. You're probably thinking "what the hell is up with her?" Long story. Not in the mood to explain it.
Good night...
Good night...

Check It Out
I just finished a book titled Come Back by Claire and Mia Fontaine. It's a memoir they co-wrote about "their journey through hell and back". I couldn't stop reading it. They wrote with such passion and strength. It made me think about my relationship with my own daughter and how much I love that child. She's quickly approaching those teen years where she wants more independence and freedom but I'm not ready to sacrifice my "doodle bug" to the real world. The book really makes you think about the person you are and how we are interpreted by our children.
Check it out.
Rainy day here and my foot is killing me. I've been dealing with Plantar Fasciitis for well over a month. My doctor has me try something new after each visit, but nothing seems to be helping. Anyone out there ever have to deal with this??
The weekend is suppose to be a nice one. Definitely the kind of days for a ride on the Harley.
Check it out.

Don, Al, and Howard...Just To Mention A Few
DON IMUS GETS FIRED!
Whoopdy-Do!
Here's my one thought on this....Good decision, BUT....
I am really tired of hearing how the Rutger girls had their dreams taken away. How? I don't get it. How can one man's ignorance destroy their dreams? How can they give him that much ownership of themselves? He made a degrading comment and they deserve to be pissed. He deserves to hear it, too. But to allow that man (and I say that lightly) to have so much control is only giving him, and ignorance, power. I do think the girls have handled themselves with great restraint and dignity....I can't say that I wouldn't have had a few public words to say to him. And who the hell is Rev. Sharpton? He surely should not be pointing any fingers. He's made degrading remarks about Jews and Whites. Get off your big throne, Al. Don Imus is ignorant and has deserved this due for a long time. There are plenty more who need to leave the airwaves too....HOWARD STERN, FOR ONE, THANK YOU! Don't get me started on him. I'm all for Freedom of Speech, but what about the responsibility that comes with it. The responsibility that is rooted in kindness, respect, and sensibility. I'd love to have a private audience with a few of those people.
And FINALLY we know who Dannilynn's father is....I have to admit I was rooting for Larry, but I do feel a bit sorry for Howard K...don't ask me why, I just do.
That's it for now....I've been on spring break all week and the weather has been crappy. Been spending a lot of time on the couch...not good for the butt!!!
