HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MISS EGGIE!!!

1. It is snowing pretty hard out tonight... so far about 2 or 3 inches in the last 4 hours.

2. For christmas, a friend of mine gave me a gift certificate for a shop that sells Darts, sooo... I went and got my own set, they are short, which I like, and they are so awesome to throw! I do really well with them.

3. I started my double dose of anti-depressants today, and I can already tell a big difference! I just feel happier than usual, and I didn't have any anxiety about driving in the snow tonight.

4. I love peanut butter, but I think I eat WAY too much of it!

5. I don't know what I'm going to do this weekend - I have no plans, but I sure hope to see my Bob at some point.

1. Kaili, I'm so sorry to hear about your school day. I'll be sharing your fact with my dd.

2. Hey Sage! Thanks for the birthday wishes!! That was a nice surprise to see when I came in to do my routine schtickler check...hee-hee!

3. Knightpatti, how exciting for your dd. I'll be looking for a report and go ahead and do 20 facts if you need them....<snicker>

4. It's been raining all day in SoCal and there's more heavy rain scheduled for all day tomorrow....

5. I had a nice birthday despite the heavy rains throughout the day.

6. I'm getting excited about the Texas TVCH gathering which culminates with a heartwarming wedding.

1. DD did go to the casting call. She is still excited about it. She was surprise how few people were there maybe 150.

2. SHe left at 4 and arrived at 7. THey started at 10. She was number 3. She sat in front of the camera with a microphone and talked for 2 minutes why she should be on Survivor. On her application she had decorated it with stickers.

3. SHe saw Sarge and she did take his picture. He is very tall! His wife was with him and both were dressed in Nascar jackets. He told them in his video he shouted like a drill sargent. She personally did not talk to him because she does not care for him.

4. SHe met a guy from Charlotte, NC that last year was called back for the first interview. They talked quite a bit.

5. She was surprised how few women showed up. Quite a few of them had not even watched Survivor before.

6. For Christmas DD and I received Survivor buffs. She wore hers today on her arm. I wore mine to work around my neck. When SIL went to buy them on CBS, there were none left except Thailand and Amazon - yellow and gold.

7. Now she waits.

1.I will say the survivor mantra for Knightpatti DD and hope that she makes it.
2.Its snowing here again tonight and I am tired of the white stuff that is for sure. I hope it stops by tomorrow.
3.Kept to my first New Year's resolution today by having breakfast with my friend Maria. I am trying to make more time for friendships both on and offline.
4.Last evening I had fun floating around folders and touching base with some people in this cyberhome. Wish I could have gotten them all together for breakfast. Well baby steps.
5.Went tubing with my youngest son this afternoon and some friends. What fun. The hill was the perfect size for sliding and CLIMBING back up.
6.Decided that I am going to extend our famiy picture wall so I went to Walmart and got some collection frames. I was sure impressed with the quality. Sometimes I underestimate ol Wally World.
7. Had a disagreement with my hubby tonight. Too often I am surprised by the fundamental differences between men and women. What's more surprising, is my expectation that the differences don't exist.
8. Better be the last one because the battery on the laptop is running out and this took alot of typing. Good night all.

1. already done this once. gotta love maintenance mode...note to self: copy all posts before posting. :-(

2. for knightpatti's dd. how flippin' sweet would that be to have someone to root for? hope she gets through!

3. i saw the movie white noise last night. it was creepy, but good. i'm interested in the paranormal, though. kinda weird.

4. after we went to the movie we went out for a few drinks. there were a lot of people we knew there, so it was pretty fun. there is this dance instructor there who looks like a puppet on a string due to her dancing, she also has elaine from seinfeld's poofy bangs in a barrette hairstyle (she's uaually a good source of entertainment for us out there), well, last night she shows up out there with 2 VERY black eyes, and these black pants that she'd handwritten "DANCE" on in white. she always has the goofiest outfits. makes you wonder what, or if she was thinking.

4. i bought a purple livestrong bracelet for my alterego friend on ebay last sunday (she collects them, and i waited too long to get one for her when they had them here), well, i got it in the mail yesterday, and it is YOUTH SIZED! grrrrrr! yes, it would FIT her (i tried it on and it will fit and she is smaller than me) but i don't want to give her the crappy one. so i won another one on ebay last night. it is supposed to be adult-sized. i'll give the child-sized one to my niece. she'll love it. :-)

5. i have some sinus thing going on. this is the first morning since tuesday that i haven't woken up with a bad headache. i did take chasers (hangover prevention pills) before i went to bed last night, maybe that's why. my head is still clogged though. i hate it.

6. i am getting really excited about the texas gathering and special wedding like ms. eggie. it's less than a month away! woo hoo!

7. i rented i, robot yesterday, along with the first spider man, and new york minute (i had to get something that didn't make me think too much like the other 2 will) :-)

8. i started taking seasonale pill today...got a free 3 month sample pack from my doctor. hope the switch from the other pill doesn't cause my body to freak out.

9. where do the weekends go? and why don't the weekedays go so fast?
happy sunday, factoiders!

1. DS's made it home last night.

3. It was after 2am, I'm so tired!

5. DH was camping. IN THE SNOW! ON PURPOSE! lol, winter camping, preparing adults to teach kids to camp when it gets cold (like in Oct, May, JUNE!)

7. DD is having a Harry Potter Movie Marathon. Over and over again, the same movie... help!!

9. Knightpatti, tell dd I think it would be so exciting for her, and yet, I would be so sad - they'll eat her alive - she's too nice!!

10 Breakfast is ready, a steaming pot of (looseleaf)cinnamon tea, and a Dutch Baby. (Legal and Eggie were in Mystic when I tried to order one, mine are much better!!

1. What numbering system was that, Reader? One, two, skip a few? LOL

2. Where is everyone...such a quiet Sunday at the Clubhouse? I'm surprised that Legal is even awake after another 3:30am!

1. I googled and found this recipe for a Dutch Baby Pancake. "Dutch Baby

2. I've never had one, but I want to try one made by Reader!

3. I'm watching Fifty First Dates on HBO right now. It looks like it will be funny enough. I usually like Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore movies.

4. I'd rather watch almost anything than to hear any more football right now. DH went out for a few minutes, so I've taken over the "preferred" tv. Heh heh heh.

1. I love Dutch Babies. My mom used to make them almost every weekend for brunch and I can smell them baking just thinking about them.

2. I'm tired today...couldn't sleep last night because I know our family has a very hard week ahead of us.

3. I groomed the pups this weekend and they look so much better!

4. Thekid is heading off to CA tomorrow for three days of classes. I hate that she will be driving over those passes!

5. Hoping some of rain stops SOON!!

6. GO Knight's daughter!!

1. Hmmmmm.....looks like I was desperately needed here this morning....Reader!...LOL!!

2. You see Factoiders, when Reader doesn't get a proper Dutch Baby, she loses her numbering faculties!

3. I have been at work for the past 5 hours. And it's still pouring heavy rain in SoCal today.

4. I missed the first NFL Wildcard Playoff game today and I don't know who won it yet.

5. I do have the second NFL Wildcard Playoff game on right now but instead of watching it, I was drawn to come here....hmmmmmm....you guys didn't know I was a schtickler psychic, did ya??!! LOL!!

6. Last night I saw Finding Neverland with Egbob, ds#2 and his girlfriend. We found a listing for this movie at a nearby movie theater we had never gone too before and they only charge $3 per person to get in!! They also were showing Ray and I was tempted to go see it today.

7. Okay, now that the numbering order has been restored, I'll be leaving. Enjoy the remainder of your Sunday and good days ahead everyone!!

1. I should be sleeping! But I'm not. I've been watching American reruns in German to try to pick up some more listening skills.

2. I went WAY out in a residential neighborhood for a choir concert, and found out that it was cancelled. So ALL the way back! Picked up a BREZN (That is Bavarian for Bretzel or Pretzel), next weeks metro pass and 100 Euros at the train station.

3. I found a really nifty shopping area just a block from my hotel. They had an ice skating rink set up and it was really fun to watch the children learning to skate by pushing a big plastic bear on skis in front of them. What a great way to have them hold onto something for balance and still get to move. Very cute!

4. Went to the Lutheran service and then to Mass at the Cathederal. Walked past the Greek Orthodox church as well, so I think I got all my bases covered. They have four times the number of Catholic churches as all the other denominations combined. Throw a rock, hit a Catholic church!

5. Went to the Deutsches Museum today to pick up a booklet about Carl Orff at their bookstore. Also got a HUGE 20 sided die, which will come in handy as a life points marker for Magic, the Gathering. Kind of hard for these over 40 eyes to see the little bitty dice!

6. I walked all over creation today and saw many interesting monuments and buildings. Explored new tram lines and new subway lines. I was really just trying to find a place to eat that was open on Sunday. No luck so.....

7. I had a McRib, fries and a chocolate milkshake at McDonalds a block from my hotel. BOO HISSSS....I just couldn't handle another take out meal from the train station. Dang, those fries were tasty!

8. Eggie beat me to 7, so neener neener to all y'all!

1. I just posted 9 facts and they got lost due to a file locking error. I'll try to replicate my post.

2. I am in corporate housing next to a train/subway station and it is very very noisy. But the building is swank.

3. I have a sore throat and sniffles.

4. I bought a new digital camera today, and am currently charging the battery.

5. I went to see my grandmother in the hospital today, and she seemed happy to see me.

6. My grandmother almost died on Christmas.

7. There is an ongoing situation surrounding my grandmother's ongoing care. I keep wanting to post in A Caring Place to ask for some help/advice from you guys, but for some reason I keep stopping myself. Maybe because it's too complicated.

8. I am still choked up thinking about the tsunami -- so tragic.

9. I think I'm going to have a glass of red wine.
