The Cheesecake is Rich

[I'm working on another post, but it's coming out weird (yeah, I know, surprise surprise surprise, eh?) and I'm not sure what I'm exactly trying to say]. In the meantime, I figured out another reason I was funky yesterday – my fun little Patti LaBell/B.B. King meter said that my blood glucose was pretty low [...]

BTW, while en route from Indianapolis yesterday I found another thing to appreciate about Detroit (besides my friend Julie): The Peanut Butter & Jelly restaurant at the airport. Really. I had a peanut butter and banana sandwich at the gate in Detroit. The specialty of the house was peanut butter and bacon on cinnamon raisin [...]

(title is in honor of the 75 versions of Little Drummer Boy from the Muzak at work)  And still no Please Come Home For Christmas…but they did play Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer by Elmo and Patsy. It can be Xmas now, thanks. Better yet, December 26, the day after Xmas when the [...]

I’m here. Nothing to report. At home I’m trying to get some writing done but end up playing a lot of that suduku thing. I know I’m late to the party but it makes me feel smart. I like that. Work is….well, mahjobiscrappis as always. With exactly one (1) payroll left in the year, new [...]

So, apparently those wiley buggers the Eagles have released 3 new songs. I mean, totally new. Not crap from the vaults. Not dance mixes of “Heartache Tonight”. NEW. And I want them so, SO bad. The problem is two-fold: First, it’s bundled with the Eagles DVD from their Australian dates. I already have this DVD. [...]

I was just rereading my post about Xmas music when I realized I left out one last acceptable Xmas song. Gene would be so proud of me – it’s Robert Earl Keen’s “Merry Christmas from the Family”.

Christmas Wrapping by The Waitresses is on Sirius. And it begins again. ::siiiiigh:: Actually, while I’m thinking of it… “Elaine’s List of Highly Acceptable Xmas Songs” 1) Fairytale of New York – but only the original by The Pogues feat. the Late, Great Kirsty MacColl. 2) Please Come Home for Christmas- preferably the Eagles version, [...]

Attention, people Googling “Now the party’s over, I’m so tired”: The song’s called Avalon, by Roxy Music. Now, who wants white wine spritzers?

OK, since I am apparently a total weirdo, I intentionally searched YouTube to see Jessica Simpson’s video (yeah, apparently I last had sense two weeks ago, same as the last time I had real Pepsi). It’s a terrible, awful, hideous song and the video is ludicrous. Scooby was sitting on my lap when it started [...]

I just finished reading “But Enough About Me” by Jancee Dunn. I loved it, loved it, loved it. One chapter is titled “No, none for me thanks: What to do when your subject offers you heroin”. I read the chapter title and then had to go do something else for a few minutes, but I [...]
