Right now Moonie, I can see how that'd make you mad, having to share him with the rest of the world! Hehe, funny story. For years, we've gotten together at my sisters for Christmas eve. We have dinner and the kids sit and watch a Christmas movie while us adults chat. Every year, our friend Martin and his wife and two teen children are the last ones to arrive. And never fails that Martin has to run to the store or something and while he's not there Santa shows up. We've been doing this for 10 years now and never have any of the kids caught on that Martin and Santa are never in the same room together, or that sometimes the wrapping paper on the gift he gives them is the same as whats under their tree at home, lol. Until last year that is. He sat down in the chair with all the kids seated around him and one by one calls them up. Sits them in his lap, asks if they've been good, gives them a present, gets a thanks and a hug, and then on to the next kid. He gets to my then five year old neice who sits down in his lap and peers real closely at him, then says, "Martin, you're Santa!" We've got kids 10 years to 13 months at that time and none of them caught on except for her. The funniest part was that she doesn't think he was just dressing up as Santa, she is positive he IS Santa, lol. We did manage to keep the secret from the rest of the kids, but this year it's already set up that Martin's FIL will be Santa while he sits back and proves to oldest neice he isn't Santa, lol.

Right now, my future husband was on Oprah a couple of weeks ago. It's nice of Oprah to have our betrothed on!

Right now, I'm painfully bored. But don't feel like doing anything I really SHOULD be doing, like maybe....housework, or homework, or studying.

Right now, good for your daughter, Tabby! Should be fun! I've never been to a pro football game. I want to go to one some day. I love live sporting events. Right now I can't believe I am up yet again at 3:30 a.m. on a Sunday morning. Right now I think I am going to go watch some more CSI.

Right now I'm fricking pissed off! Right now I'm hating my neighbors who live in my apartment building. Frickin' two nights in a row there's been late night parties. WTH! Are people that frickin' disrespectful???!!! Last night it was loud playing of music and drunken singing after 3am. Someone thankfully called the police and it was finally broken up. Tonight, in another apartment, they're out on the porch talking loud, yelling, and the like. Additionally, several have urinated in the back courtyard (not able to wait for the bathroom I guess.) To top it off, someone vomitted too. Such lovely things to listen to at, now, 3am...again. Ugh! The building I live in has 64 units. It's as if the people completely forget that there are people who live above them, next to them and below them. My bedroom window is on the back courtyard. So, I hear everything when I'm trying to sleep. It's unbelievable. I don't think I've ever been more pissed. I even called the police a bit ago. I don't know if they've come already or not. But it doesn't seem like it. I love living here 90% of the time. But this is ridiculous. Ps. Thank you for letting me vent.

Right now ... poor Wendo. How frustrating to live with such disrespectful neighbors? I'm so sorry! Here's my solution ... either you go "wargod" on their lousy butts and call the police or you come with me to Mamie's house and we'll all eat Peach Cobbler and forget about those stupid neighbors. I'm for the Cobbler ... what do you say?

right now, dd and dh are at the 49ers game. should start in about 5 minutes. dd got the two tickets for 40 bucks (a savings of 188 bucks!) and then got to monster park and paid 35 dollars for parking 1/2 mile from their seats. sheesh!! poor husband will need a wheelchair by the time he gets home from this game. i am off to chukchansi casino with two former co-workers. we planned this trip 11 months ago--the only time all 3 of us would be off at the same time! we get a free room, and have all our snacks and wine ready to go. i don't have much money to take, but it only takes that one spin, right?! yeah...the time i won 6,000 quarters, i had spent about 500 bucks in the two days. thank heaven, i ended up ahead of the game. but i did have to sign a form and will have to claim it in taxes. anything over 1,199 bucks has to be claimed. so i am hoping for several one-thousand dollars pots! LOL

Right now, just an FYI on my absence: Cox Communications went out on Thursday night taking down our internet (and Vonage phones) but NOT our cable tv. Go figure. Supposedly, the repair will be done on Monday. Meanwhile, no email, no tvch, and no calls. Not sure if this is a good thing or not. Thank heavens, the Internet Cafe across the street is only $1 per 30 minutes. Anyway, back soon, I hope.

Right now, I'm thinking that cobbler would've been rather tasty in the wee hours of the morning. I tried ear plugs first, Juju; they didn't work. And, I'll be honest, after three o'clock in the morning, I shouldn't have to use ear plugs. It took almost an hour after I posted but the cops did come (I think it was a second time, though, because they sounded very pissed off.) I'm thinking another neighbor or two called the police too. You know, it wasn't the noice that bothered me so much as the people who were urinating and puking all over my buildings back courtyard. I live here, this is my home. Tenants use the back courtyard to play with dogs, barbecue, etc. To have people not watch what they're party goers are doing is just rude and irresponsible. I'm writing a letter of complaint to the management company. The two parties this weekend went way out of bounds for what's acceptable (and what's allowed in our lease too.)

Right now ... good for you Wendo! I hope your management company takes your letter very seriously and does something about this craziness! BTW ... I'm placing an order for Peach Cobbler with Mamie right now. The next bad night and we'll have a girls night at Mamies ... I'm sure she won't mind.

Right now I'm in between sleeps and wanted to tell Wendo that very soon those urinating cretins will not be wanting to take their little winky out in the Chicago cold.

Right now, I just found out that I got a ticket (Floor level) to see my most gorgeous man in the world Bon Jovi on November 29th. I am very excited. And my friend works security at Madison Square Garden, so I might be able to get up close. OMG

Right now I am wondering just who my daughters Brownie troop leader thinks she is! She called me at 8pm last night asking if I wouldn't mind being in charge of the monthly meeting this month and perhaps I could do an activity, like making bracelets.....I said sure "no problem" not realizing that the "monthly" meeting was taking place TODAY and her next words were going to be "great, we'll see you tomorrow at 4 then, bring enough supplies for 10 girls"
