Barbie shows us that you don't have to be a slut to have fabulous hair (but I guess you have to have the tres chic Wilma Flintstone pearls... yabba dabba do!)The "Bratz" styling heads have to have boobs for some reason, and a bare midriff. Both vital parts of styling hair and doing make-up.

So, it's time to be voting for the Dork Blogger contest. I have zero votes. I could vote for myself, but I'd rather get zero.Upon reading about the dorkiness of some of the other contestants, I fear I may not be a dork at all. Maybe I'm just cool.While I doubt I'll get the crown of Dork Princess, I figured I still better give myself a plug.My entry is already submitted, but perhaps I should point

I woke up and got ready for my interview, dressing myself in professional looking clothing that I would never wear otherwise... but I looked good. I was kind of an emotional wreck, though, so nervous that I was crying a little. It's been about 6 years since I've been to a job interview. I somehow managed to calm my nerves (with the support of my wonderful boyfriend), and I was out the door.I

Some people think Friday the 13th is a day of bad luck. I've never experienced bad luck on this day (of course, this year will be different because I jinxed it).There was one time when my family was fishing on a lake in Ohio. My dog got a GIGANTIC fish hook stuck in his paw. My "dad" got it out, but it then got stuck in his thumb. Then my sister said "Hey! It's Friday the 13th!" It was like some

The Dork Bloggers want to know about our dorkiest moments.Alright... I'm game.I think my dorkiest moment is probably also my most embarrassing moment, which you can read about here.There may be some dorkier moments... I mean, they really happen on a daily basis, but I already wrote about this one, and it really is pretty dorky, so why not use it? And, I can't really think of anything else. Blonde

Spring break is happening all across the country right about now.My family never took vacations during Spring break. We only vacationed during the summer.We never flew anywhere, either... unless a funeral was involved. It was always a trip in the car.We lived in Colorado, and our family lived in Wisconsin and Ohio.

Today for Spirit Week is Crazy Hair day. Shane wanted his hair standing straight up, but we didn't really have time to make that happen. So, here is the result: Mike was too much of a wuss to do anything to his hair. I tried to convince him to do the Sanjaya 'do, but he didn't find this idea as amusing as I did. However, so he doesn't feel left out, here is a picture of Mike, and the way he chose

This week is Spirit Week at my kids' school. You remember Spirit Week, don't you? Each day was something different... we usually had Spirit Day, where you had to wear school colors (ok, you didn't have to wear school colors. I mean, they weren't going to expel you, or torture you or something if you didn't), or Crazy Hair Day, or Mismatched Clothes Day, or, my favorite, Slap Your Friend Day.Well,

When I was growing up, we always bought the TV Guide. It was colorful, and useful for finding out what shows were on what channels at what time. There was a fun crossword puzzle in the back. I always liked it best when cartoons were on the front, or my latest TV crush (such as Scott Baio).Every weekend I would go over to my grandparents house to spend the night.

And yes, how wonderful of me to make his birthday all about me. He's at school, having a normal 14 year old life, we'll celebrate his birthday tonight and this weekend. I did bake him a cake, and this morning I made him French Toast. But, back to me and

I use the word "wonky" occasionally. I heard someone on TV use it the other day, and my friend wondered what it meant. Even though he supposedly reads my blog, he had never heard it.I don't know if there is a real definition for it, and I don't feel like looking it up. When I use it, I mean "off kilter" or "messed up", or whatever... something like that.As I was thinking about this, I started

1. Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen never smile anymore. They are both very skinny. My theory is that they barf up their meals, so their teeth are all fucked up from the vomit, so they don't smile. Or, they are pissed off because no one has let them eat since they were 13.2. By now you've heard or seen Miss Brit shaved her head. My theory is that since Anna Nicole died there is a crazy lady void to

I remember watching reruns of I Dream of Jeannie as a little girl.Today I wonder if she is a super-hero? And, in the world of super-herodom, what makes someone a super-hero anyway? Do you have to have a comic book? Do you have to save a life?Jeannie could save lives, I think. And, really she could probably take on any villian. I mean, all she would have to do is blink...

This morning I was watching Scrubs on Comedy Central before taking my son to school. If you watch Scrubs you may know that Ted the lawyer has a barbershop quartet thing going on. This morning they sang the theme song to Charles in Charge twice.My son, Shane, has never seen an episode of Charles in Charge I guess. I don't know how, though, because it used to be on any given channel at any given

A few years ago my son Shane's third grade class went on a field trip to the bowling alley. I volunteered to go with the class. We got a little tour in the back of how everything works and then got to play a game.The teacher, Mr. C, had never been bowling before. He was a small man. I don't think he was taller than me, and I'm 5'2". He was definitely skinnier than me. He was older than me. He

So Jen posted a little about the walkman the other day, and it reminded me of this story. (By the way, I swear all of you people are going to put me in therapy one day because I'm remembering all of this repressed stuff).In 5th grade I LOOOOOOOOOOOVED Micheal Jackson. This was when "Thriller" was released, which is totally cool and always will be no matter how completely wacko Jacko becomes.

When I was in 7th grade (gosh, I have a lot of 7th grade stories) there was a "night-club" for teens that I would go to with my friends Kim and Patty. For some reason a local tv station decided to record some of the dancing and music every week and replay it the following Saturday at noon. This show was hosted by Max Headroom. I honestly don't know why it was hosted by Max Headroom, but whatever.

I've been friends with Patty since 2nd grade. One day in 7th grade she brought some pre-sweetened kool-aid powder to school in a baggie. We were in choir, dumping little bits of it in our hands and licking it, and enjoying it very much. The choir had a concert soon, so we all started walking to the auditorium for rehearsal.A teacher saw our kool-aid.I think her name was Mrs. Williams. Her name

Bogey was there. He was escorting a newly single starlet who shall remain nameless, but she was in a darling dress by Christian Dior. They've been trying to keep things on the DL.They stepped out of the limo and onto the red carpet and were just mobbed by the paparazzi.

My son Mike will be 14 in February. He is starting to get some facial hair. His sideburns are looking scraggly, he sort of has a moustache, and even something growing under his bottom lip.Today my boyfriend Alex and I were pointing this out...Alex- "When are you going to start shaving?"Mike- "I don't know, whenever I feel like it I guess." Me- "Aren't you supposed to do some kind of father/son

Not really a mad-lib, because I saw the story and just filled in the blanks, instead of having someone ask me "give me an adjective... ok, give me a noun...", but here ya go.This is what Zed heard at 3 am while congested...OPEN UP.

**Update... the movie was great! And, please feel free to steal the pizza idea. I'm sure I'm not the inventor anyway.Tonight my family is having "make your own pizza". I love it. We get the personal size Boboli shells and just go to town with whatever toppings we want. Usually it's just your normal pepperoni and sausage (I get this great mild Italian sausage from a local market), but sometimes

I'm pretty happy with you. Sure, there's a part of me that feels like I'm too old for you... that you're incredibly silly, and for some people there seems to be a LOT of drama asscociated with you. But, I've gotten in touch with some people through you, and that is super cool! And, playing around with the layout has given me a nice creative outlet.However... I have a request. Could you please

There are many, I must tell you. Some of them are questionable, though.1. I went to Great America when I was 3, and I saw all the characters from Looney Tunes. I stepped on Sylvesters tail.2. I went to the mall in 2nd grade and saw Darth Vader.3. I went to the mall a couple years later and saw Jackie Zeman (who plays Bobbie Spencer on General Hospital) promoting some aerobics tape or something.4.

What the hell button did I click to make weather.com think I was getting married, and how do I reverse it?Whenever I go to check the weather, I get all these damn little wedding tips. Like, if it's supposed to be raining on a particular day it says "tent your event".It also gives me links if I'm: getting married somewhere elsewant to plan for an outdoor weddingwant to know when the sun will

You know, there may have been more embarrassing moments in my life than the one I'm going to tell you about, but this one always comes to mind when the subject come up.I was in 7th grade. The whole year I was madly in love with an 8th grader we'll call RP. He had absolutely no idea who I was. Not a clue.Everything would have been perfect for us. Not only did I like him, but my friends liked his

Does it make me a horrible mother that I am taking waaaay more pictures of my cat lately than of my kids? I don't think so.-------------------------------------It has been announced that the 4th installment of Indiana Jones will start filming this year. I'm not sure how I feel about this. I love...

New cat, new year, new resolutions... new look for the blog.What are my resolutions? Not to make any, thank you very much. I never follow through, so why bother? And... if I feel like I need to do something to improve myself, why wait until January 1st anyway?However, there are a couple of things I would like to do this year... like actually finish something that I start to crochet... or take a

Admit it... you need a Bogey fix. Who am I to deny you? I will only give you a small dose, so that you come back for more.Click on the pictures for a larger image.Stalking his prey... which is probably a tasty string or the elusive jingly ball. You do NOT want to mess with him when he's trying to play on the PS2.Andy at Sans Pantaloons made this super awesome poster for me. The movie is still in

I mean, I'm pretty sure I am anyway, but this helps seal the deal...I was talking to my mom on the phone the other day, and I doodled on one of those missing child fliers that you get in the mail. I gave the girl some much needed red lipstick, and some lovely red hair. I have no idea what she looked like before my alterations. See? Yeah.... HELL. I'll be there.

Lesson #1- If you want to leave your bedroom door open so the new, cute kitty can come sleep with you, do NOT sleep with your face close to the edge of the bed unless you want some claws all up in your grill.Ouch.And... some more pictures! Aren't you glad you know another blogger who now posts cat pictures? I just can't help myself, I have to share his total adorableness. Have to. The world

So, I'm sure to most of you this might be a let down. You were probably thinking I was engaged or pregnant or moving or something like that... or, as already suggested, a sex change operation.That is not the case.My big announcement is that... we got a kitty!!Introducing Bogey, the newest cat to grace your monitor!We've been thinking about getting a cat since we moved to this house and our
