“Guess what? You and Hillary wore the very same jacket yesterday.”
“I did not.”
“There was a clip of her on FOX. She was wearing that same peachy colored jacket you wore yesterday.”
First, my mother is NOT voting for Hillary. Not to worry. She is still voting for John McCain.
I think it’s a St. John Thing. My mother has been wearing St. John Knits since the company began in 1962. When the first collection was introduced the prices were right in step with the times. She could buy an ... more»
It began raining early this morning. It has rained all day. I went in for a color. Leroy is still sick. Margaret ended up doing a quick shampoo. Everyone going into their saloon was happy! It was like a holiday. “Happy Rainy Day”! It is the first real moisture we’ve had here since January. Things were getting terribly dry to the point of danger – Extreme Fire Hazard. This will help us crawl through until the monsoons begin on the 4th of July. (Every year the rains start on the 4th of July – ... more»
CONGRATS TO JOHN STEPHENSON OF STOP THE ACLU! Reagan Dailene Stephenson was born on May 12, 2008. She weighed 8 lbs and 4 ounces. She is 21 inches long.
There will be no Thursday Thirteen this week. I’m heading to Las Cruces with the parents tomorrow. My mother has two different appointments. With luck we can do something about her toes. When she was given a shot to help revive her after hear heart failure, it damaged the nerves in one leg. She has a miserable time with the toes on her right foot curling. It ... more»
I am still down with the
flu. It's not much fun, that's for sure. Rumsfeld has been enjoying the fact that he has more snuggle time. An
unassisted Triple Play!
Guacamole and the science of salsa! That bright light that
streaked through the NM sky the other night, giving visions of alien
invasions was just a meteor.
NOTE: I am having problems with Blog Harbor and posting. I’ve been trying for about 2 hours to get something to “take”. I’m listening to the Met (Live) do MacBeth, one of my favorites. Carlos Alverez, doing MacBeth sucks. He’s okay, but he’s no Sherrill Milnes. Jimmy is incredible though. I saw a performance there, years ago, where I was sitting front row, two seats to the right of Jimmy. During the ghosts of Scotland past scene, they both became ‘tickled’. It was so much fun watching them keep from smiling. Something amusing happened with one of ... more»
I think this is a job for the new RNC site Can We Ask!
My father has made the connection between Barack Obama’s statement that there are 57 ( maybe 58) states and has tracked it back to the John Kerry Campaign of 2004. He thinks Obama picked it up from Heinz 57!
I want to know when we added 7 new states. Where are they? What are their names? Have they had their primaries yet? Did Barack Obama win their popular vote? Did he pick up their Super-Delegates? Is Barack Obama Dumber Than Dirt?
First up, Glenn Chang is graduating from New Mexico State on Saturday! Congrats to he and his wonderful parents. Glenn was telling me one of his classes was using The Pink Flamingo as part of their discussions. He said everyone in the class but he and one other person were liberals. It's not what they say about you, but that they are talking about you!
My blogging is “lite” today. I managed to sleep (a little). This is getting funny now. I’m just not quite sure what a person must do to get a decent night’s sleep. ... more»
Nothing is more annoying than either a paper cut or a head cold. I have the latter. I had no sleep at all last night. I know one thing, I've proven that Air-Bourn really works. I quit using it about a month ago. This is the first cold /flu I've had in at least 2 years. I've been using the product religiously during that time.
Sally Vee is pinch hitting tonight with a ... more»
THURSDAY THIRTEEN The Pink Flamingo’s 71st Edition Thursday Thirteen Thirteen Ultimate Chick Flicks! (Sometimes we girls just need a hero) or Unbuckling the swash - if you get my drift! (Sorry, I have the flu and my mind is polluted by way too much medication!)
It's like this. There are times when we all need a hero. They don't need to wear blue tights and fly faster than a speeding bullet. They don't necessarily grunt and sweat and flex their biceps and their tight little abs. They are the men who read books without pictures, have table manners, and know ... more»
A PINK FLAMINGO RETRACTION: Boy Was I Wrong! From what I have been reading, the vaccine to the HPV virus, that they want to give to girls throughout the country (and I had agreed) is a very dangerous drug. Like I said, I’m sure glad I don’t have kids. I would have messed this one up, big time.
After a comment today, I checked out plant toxicity. What we have here is a Pigmy Date Palm, which is not toxic.
I have the flu. Let's just admit it and deal. This afternoon I went back ... more»
Sometimes Miss Beverly Sills is just plain cute. The worst of it is the little stinker knows she is cute. Then, there are times (most of the time) she is so darn naughty, it is still cute! Today has been one of those days. I pulled her out of the big jade plant 3 times. The third time she decided to try and bit me. That did not work. She’s been running around the condo like a critter on jet fuel. Okay it’s cute. Another only in New Mexico: marauding elk? THE CHAMBERS BOOK OF DAYS
As I mentioned in an earlier post, the good people at the Cat Blogsphere are helping a fellow cat-blogger who was the victim of a tragic fire. They’ve also done something nice, but I don’t now if I can mention it. Let’s just say ML proves my theory about Episcopalians being good people!
This Episcopalian spent the afternoon trying to shake down local business owners – for gift certificates for the annual church raffle. It’s for a good cause, so what the heck. Fortunately everyone knows the money goes back into the community to various charities so ... more»
