Tuesday

1. It's snowing like there is no tomorrow. And here I thought winter must be over.

2. I am peacefully coexisting on the couch with a handgun. This is a major step up from the heebie jeebies.

3. Saturday, I hosted a birthday party for a friend, and had a BLAST. We had lunch here and then went to Spokane to shop at the mall. I found some awesome deals (yay for new clothes!). We ate dinner downtown at a charming French cafe' called Madeleines. I hadn't realized how fun downtown Spokane was, and now I really want to go back. They have brick buildings. I think I could live there. On the way home, my blondness showed up. "I am not sure how to get back to the highway, but I can't just put 'Go to I-90' into the GPS, so I guess I will drive around for a while." I found the highway, just couldn't find an on-ramp. After ending up going the wrong direction again, I finally realized that I could put MY address into the GPS and that would get me to the highway.

4. I don't wear headphones. I have not reached that level of blond yet.

5. Should blond have an 'e' on the end?

6. Here's a picture of the yummy and fun dessert I made for the party. It's a P-Dub creation.






7. I have a new job. It doesn't start till March 1st, at which time this blog may sink into oblivion. The lack of recent posts is to prepare you for that time. Or it's just because I don't have much to say.

  1. 1. I think it's over here. 81 yesterday. *sigh*
    2. Wow. I'm heebie jeebie-ing just thinking about it.
    3. That sounds like a blast. I love parties and fun girl time. And as for the GPS, I love ya, but that's hilarious!
    4. *head cocked to one side* I must be a blonde because I don't get it.
    5. No. According to dictionary.com (http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/blonde): The spelling blonde is still widely used for the noun that specifies a woman or girl with fair hair: The blonde with the baby in her arms is my anthropology professor. Some people object to this as an unnecessary distinction, preferring blond for all persons: My sister is thinking of becoming a blond for a while. As an adjective, the word is more usually spelled blond in reference to either sex ( an energetic blond girl; two blond sons ), although the form blonde is occasionally still used of a female: the blonde model and her escort. The spelling blond is almost always used for the adjective describing hair, complexion, etc.: His daughter has blond hair and hazel eyes.
    6. Yum! And so cute!
    7. I'm so excited for you. I can't wait to hear about it. And you have plenty to say, so keep it comin! Who knows - you might have way more to say once you start the job. ;-)

  3. M, there is a blonde joke that goes like this. "A blonde went to a salon to get a hair cut. She told the barber (barberess? What do they call the girls?) to cut her hair but not to remove the headphones. The barber thought that was strange but obliged. After a few months passed and the blonde had made several visits with the exact same request, the barber one day removed the headphones and the blonde promptly fell down dead. Picking up the headphones, the barber heard, "Breathe in, breathe out. Breathe in, breathe out." The end.
