New Face Book

I am one of the few that doesn’t get all up in arms about the changes that Face Book has been enduring lately. None of the changes have been all that significant as far as I’m concerned. And this latest change, this “TIMELINE” is pretty cool if you ask me, it didn’t take me but a few minutes to figure it all out so these folks that are screaming bloody murder about the new “TIMELINE” are just being silly.

California Drinking

My long time friend who has ended up in Southern California hasn’t called or email as much lately as he used to actually called today, he picked a crazy day to call, but I’m glad that he did.  He is such a wonderful person and life gave him the challenge of being gay, we’ve spent many an hour chatting about his lifestyle and he has had his ups and downs with it that is for sure.

He spent some time back in his old home town in Wisconsin, but small towns up north are not what you would call “gay friendly” so he didn’t stay there long.  He bounces around the states and I never know where he will be calling from next.  This time he was thinking of staying in California but of course life is challenging him once again.

He has always enjoyed the night life, since bars are the easiest place to meet other gays, but since he is fast approaching the age of 60 he has toned down his wild night life, for the most part.

After much prodding from his close friend – the poor guy went out the other night and it happens that someone must have slipped something into his drink(s), so he doesn’t remember all that much.  He does remember however, the L.A. police officer hand cuffing him, pieces of a ride in the smelly backseat of a police cruiser and most of all waking up the next a.m. in a cold, cramped and very scary jail cell.  His night out of the town ended up in getting himself a DUI.  And that, now a days, is serious and can cost $$$$$ and will make it difficult for him to keep his job as a city bus driver, bummer.

Of course by now he tells me that he has an attorney.  he even writes a blog on their website Los Angeles Criminal Defense Attorney Blog | California Criminal Law Forum. They are one of the top 5% U.S. Law Firm that specializes in aggressive representation in the Southern California courts with criminal and DUI cases.

Shout Out to Jeremy

My friend Jeremy has a blog. I had no idea that he did until I overheard him talking about WordPress with a buddy. I wondered what he knew about WordPress, as that is the software that I use for my blog. Turns out he knows about WordPress because he has been blogging for lie 3 years already. Probably longer than I have!

If it’s not one thing, it’s another

We had a major back up with our water system that made a complete and total mess that took forever to clean up. Well, at least it was clean water and not the sewer.

It was a few minutes ago when I went to the basement to do a few loads of laundry, when I found that my washer and dryer are not at all working! My husband came down to take a look at it, and had told me that we needed to get a new washer and dryer, Ugh! If it’s not one thing, it’s another unfortunately. Guess I need to go on-line and start comparison shopping right away with the amount of laundry that this family goes through!

My friend now has her own blog

My long time best friend, Rachel, listens to me as I talk on and on at times about my blogging and she has finally consented to give it and try, which tickles me pink! She has been doing it for over three weeks now, posting sometimes a couple of posts a day.

She was frantic when her PC crashed for 2 days, she had to get her son to come over and work his computer magic and got it back up and running, good as new. During her down time we spent several hours on the phone, which has become something that we don’t do much anymore since we rely on email and Instant Messengers so much.

Anyway, Rachel is once again happy to be back blogging, she has found it to be as therapeutic as I have, let’s you release some of your negative energy onto the keyboard and feel better after doing so. So a new blogger has been born, Welcome, Rachel!

Hope for my sister’s finances

I believe that I have written a bit about my one sister who’s husband was injured in a automobile accident, not one that was his fault, his injuries have kept him in treatment, therapies, medicated and out of work, and not receiving one thin dime during this whole time. I believe the accident was last October or so, that is a long time not to be receiving any type of monies on which to pay bills and feed his family, they are pretty much in dire straights at this point and my poor sister is beside herself with him home 24/7 and miserable most of that time. Doesn’t sound like any type of fun at all.

This has been devastating on their whole family and it has to come to an end sooner or later.

The “Pool”

My dearest hubby and his friends are always into the company sports pool they hold for everything from baseball, to football to basketball and anything in between. They even do one about a “Fantasy Team” where they pick their players, I’m still not quite sure how they do that one.

Hubby’s favorite is his baseball picks, every season, all season long! His favorite Internet site is where he gets, what he likes to call, his daily “fix”. Men! Sometimes they’re just big kids. The only difference between them and the toddlers is the cost of their toys!

I love chocolate and Fannie May is awesome

As a kid I loved candies and chocolates, and as I aged I pretty much lost the taste for such sweat treats, but I am glad to say that in the past two years or so I have rekindled my love for them again. And what is so cool is that there are so many types of candies these days to choose from and I don’t mean the kids kind of candies, I’m talking the kind that is more expensive and caters to my generation and I’m loving every minute of it.

It occurred to me that since I am doing so much on the Internet these days, that I could shop around for my candies on-line, and I don’t know why I didn’t think of it sooner. One of my favorite candy companies is Fannie May, they have been around forever, almost everyone has heard of them and tasted at least one of their treats and you know that when you purchase one of their products that you are going to get a good quality piece of candy and they have a great selection to choose from. So I ventured onto the Fannie May web-site and was so happy to see that you can order directly from them and what really got me excited was to find that you can create your own assortment any way that you want it and have them ship it to you or where ever else you would want them to go.

Lyrics for Rap and Hip Hop

Music is life and life is music, I can’t imagine my life without music, in fact since my mom was a dancer and my father was in a band, I wouldn’t even be here without music. Hubby and I both enjoy all kinds of music and I have instilled the love of all music in our kids the best that we could.

Our teenager has always enjoyed music, like most kids do, and now she listens to this new musical concept called “Rap.” I really am not a fan of this type of music although now and then I will hear something that I enjoy bouncing around to, but not too often.

I was on the Internet the other day and was looking up the words to a song that my father would have me sing as a kid called “Little Sir Echo” and I was surprised how easy it was to find them with all of the sites out there now that help you in your search of song titles and lyrics.
