Today, there are 5 distinct thoughts running through my head, so I thought I would give you a run down. In summation, here it is: 1) come on Dems!, 2) get this CD NOW, 3) examining relationships, 4) buying too much stuff?, and finally 5) comments on TV things. Let’s get started, but let’s keep it brief.
First of all, most people don’t think that I am critical (enough) of the Democrats actions. They are wrong. This is just great; now we can EXPECT an attack on Iran. Why were these guidelines abandoned? This just seems to keep getting worse and worse; if we don’t at least put caps and regulations on things, then things will continue to go in the same direction, and there will be NO changes. That can’t be allowed to happen! We need to send a message, that is LOUD and CLEAR to the president; no more occupation! No more war! Things just seem to be idling along, while real action needs to be taken. This is seriously disappointing, to say the least. UGH. We need some people that will take real action, fast.
In lighter fare, I am proud to announce the American release of a GREAT UK artist’s sophomore disc, entitled Back to Black. It is none other than the fantastical Amy Winehouse, and you must do yourself a favor and buy this CD today. It is only $8 at Target and Best Buy, and it is definitely $8 well spent. Let’s show our appreciation for bringing great artists to our shores, rather than leaving them as imports. Amy’s voice is an old classic voice, much like Billy Holiday, and it has power, class, soul, and life. The music is fantastic, like a hip hop jazz, and you will enjoy this if you enjoy great music. Do yourself a favor and pick it up today!
Relationships. UGH. Sometimes they are great. Sometimes they suck. Sometimes you realize that certain relationships in your life are not worth fighting for, but for whatever reason, they go on, because you let them. You don’t want yourself to be like them, so you do your part; even when they don’t do theirs. All that leads to is frustration, and the occasional cryptic portion of a blog post. I am just wondering what I will do next time they take it upon themselves to call. Perhaps I will just let it go for months on end, as it seems they prefer to do themselves; or maybe I will do what I did this time, and just suck it up, and sit through another fake attempt to maintain something that isn’t really there in the first place. Oh well… we’ll see. Relationships can really take it out of you. Thank God for the good ones.
I spent a lot of money yesterday and goodies that made me feel better. Sometimes, you just gotta pull out that card and swipe it. I am glad that I did, but I need to calm down. This is kind of a suggestion and a reminder of that need. Retail therapy! WOO!
Finally, I just want to say this, if you watch 24, were you not extremely excited that Martha came back this week? Even more than that, can you BELIEVE what she did to Logan?!?!? I LOVE YOU JEAN SMART!!!! YAY! Also, if that Sanjaya Malakar makes it through, I will be PISSED. Melinda, girl, you are my favorite, and I hope you win. Lastly, I wouldn’t mind having a three-way (or a four way if James wants in) with Chris Richardson and Blake Lewis. Those boys are hot AND they can sing!
Hope everyone is having a great hump day! That’s the run-down! I’m out!
OMG I love Jean Smart as Martha so much! She was the best part of last season. I squealed when they showed the preview with her in it last week. She needs to be on it more.
I never heard that an occupation of Iran was in the works. I’m against that too, btw. What I heard was an extended air strike and some special ops to take care of things the air stike did not. And, it might not be us, but Israel. Or both.
I would love to have democracy and good relations with Iran, but those dudes can NOT have an a-bomb. The risk they will use it is too high.
I wasn’t referring to a plan for occupying Iran; we are currently occupying Iraq. If our war plan continues down the same path, though, we will be occupying Iran pretty soon.
Both things we need to stop.
Amy Winehouse and Charlotte Church singing Beat It while Amy appears drunk is the reason YouTube was created.
I just read an excellent intelligence report/analysis implyng that we are talking to Iran a little more than either side wants to admit, and the Iranians do not want to make the same mistake they made in 1979.
In 79 they blew their chance to negotiate with a weak US president and instead helped get Ronald Reagan elected and subsequent US support of their war with Iraq.
So here they are again in a crisis with us and we have a weak president with an unknown new one arriving in 2 years. According to this report we probably won’t attack them but reach some sort of agreement. Peace with Iran sure would be nice, but I just don’t trust them. I feel they need to agree to dismantle their nuke program under verification or we and/or Israel must do something.
When I lived in Portland, I made many trips up to Seattle. That was where I first met Blake Lewis. It’s also where I first saw him naked. If you think he is hot with clothes on, wait until you see his naked ass. And boy, did he ever sing when . . . well . . . some things should be kept secret.
Ok, Dr. Sparky. Documentation. We need some Antonellaesque Blake pics.
Anyway, I bought the Amy Winehouse CD.
I cheated myself
Like I knew I would
I told ya, I was trouble
You know that I’m no good
: )
Hmm…
chrisafer; I couldn’t agree more! I love that clip.
Dr Sparky; I need pictures as well. Now.
Leah… wha?
Ugh. I had a pic of broken hot sauce…
LOL, I totally forgot about that!
i love me some amy winehouse.
Martha Logan OWNS. Jean Smart brings the crazy, but such subdued and controlled crazy that it’s just awesome when she, oh, goes and stabs someone. And then says, “Why are they doing this to me? I deserve a medal!” When she was chopping that kiwi, I thought surely she’s gonna lose a finger here. Who else experienced a curious mix of amusement and revulsion when she slid that raspberry past Aaron’s lips? I love them both, I do, but I don’t really love seeing them sexy. But then I kinda do. I write a little 24 recap at Too Much Free Time and I’ve been frothing about the return of Martha for a few weeks.
And that hair! Love.
