First, I forgot my password. Which led me to be frustrated with Yahoo, because I forgot my password to that email address. I know I should be frustrated with myself for picking passwords that are un-decodable. Even by me. It's been 42 years since I used that email. Now, I'm finally on this thing. But alas, I can't figure out how to add Kristen or leave a comment. I'm going to bed. Kristen, this is all your fault.

It's been a while. I have neglected my Myspace as well. These days I don't have much time to think, much less analyze my thoughts. Therefore, neglecting all blogs all together.
I forgot how much relaxation I gained from blogging. Actually, in my heavy blogging days last year, I was nearing internet addiction. Mabey that's why I stopped. As-soon-as I figure out how to put pictures on this thing I will do that as well.
Well, when I think of something interesting I will write it. My criteria for interesting: Make myself laugh.

I've had one of those Sundays that goes better than planned. I couldn't have dreamed of a better one. It's funny the things that make my Sundays great these days. A few years ago a great Sunday included sleeping in late, watching the life time channel all day, leaving my pajamas on until they started to itch, getting more money from my mom than I had asked for, and going out with friends to a bar that had awesome drink specials. These days there is a scarcity of simplicity in my life. So, I find it much easier to take great plessure in the little things.
We had made plans to go to church today, a while back. First of all, I didn't really believe that Ryan would wake up to go. But, he did. Which leads me to great day maker no 1. I only had to make 3 attempts to get my husband out of bed this morning. Normally I have to make many more than 3 attempts to get him to do alot of things. I was impressed with his commitment to his promise and his willingness to follow through. He was actually glad to be doing it.
Ryan was a little hesitant to be wearing jeans to church. I told him that I would not attend a church where that would not be acceptable. Plus, an exemption from wearing slacks will make it alot easier to get him to go to church in the future. Great day maker no. 2: When we pulled up to the church, most of the men standing outside were wearing jeans. Ryan saw them and gleefully said, "Jeans!" Then, as we pulled into the parking lot we both said "jeans" everytime we saw someone wearing them. The game became much more fun when we saw about 5 people get out of one car and they were all wearing jeans. We said, "jeans, jeans, jeans, jeans, jeans" as each one stepped out.
The church we went to was beautiful. I had been praying that God would lead us to the right one. We had been planning on attending a different church today but, we changed our minds at the last minute. The one we attended today was perfect. It offered alot of great things especially for a couple like us that had been raised in two different religions. It was catholic for Ryan, and they had a choir for me. They have a men's group for Ryan, and a women's group for me. And, the congregation, excuse me, parish, is made up of a perfect distribution of all walks of life. Also, we just felt really comfortable being there and we feel like there is where we're suppose to be. Great day maker no. 3: Besides the fact that they were handing out Marti Gras beads as everyone left, Ryan said, "I really like it there."
After church we ate lunch at Niki's, which is a really good italian restaraunt over here. At lunch, we both agreed that we would not buy each other gifts for Valentines Day because we're not really going to be able financially and it just seems silly to do that when we share money. We are going to our traditional V-Day spot though. Great day maker no. 4: great lunch and great conversation with a great husband.
Okay, so, we did get in a little bit of an argument in the car on the way to our next stop. But, we definitely didn't let that ruin our day. We made up because the song Lonely Women Make Good Lovers came on. Ryan, not really paying attention to all of the words, was pointing at himself when he sang, "good lookin', smooth talkin' man". Let me just add that Ryan LOVES to be obnoxious when I'm steaming. So, I let him sing and point to himself a few times, finally the song came back around to the part that says, "Lonely women make good lovers." And, I pointed at myself. He laughed, I rolled my eyes and the argument was put to rest. Great day maker no. 5: We found a great song to make up to.
We went to cut his hair. Then, we got some ice cream and came home. Today wasn't an exceptional day. There was nothing monumental about it. It was just really nice to spend the day together and appreciate each other.

Okay, so, if they kill Meredith, can they still call the show Grey's Anatomy? I'm not happy with the ending. I'm terrified for Meredith and for that little girl. If she dies she will never know that her best friend is engaged. But, hello! If she lives Dr. Shephard is obviously going to propose, and she'll have to overcome all of things that her mother said to her when she was "lucid". I'm sure it will be very difficult. Along the way Izzy will have to deal with overcoming Denny's death and probably try to kill herself. Then I will be disappointed because the show will have seriously become WAY too predictable. But, did the little girl go get help or what? She just walked away. If you ask me she looked a little P.ed Off.
10 things that bothered me about tonights episode:
1. I didn't like when they were in the middle of trauma practice, a coincidental mass trama occurred. They're sugeons. Did the writer's think that we, the audience, would think they didn't have enough training? They should have come to get them when they were in the locker room.
2. I really didn't like that man being so pushy with Izzy. Get off her back! She's doing the best she can. Don't tell her how to do her job.
3. The lady that couldn't find her son, and she wouldn't go into surgery until George found him. First of all, why did George even promise her something like that? Second of all, Dr. Bailey should have just told her, "Look, if we don't perform this surgery, your son won't have a mother when we find him." Because Dr. Bailey is so sassy.
4. When Meredith handed that little girl over to the police officer, the dumb A told the little girl to stay right where she was and left her alone. Then they lead us to believe that she was kidnapped or something. I didn't know if I was watching ER, Without a Trace, or Grey's. Then the little girl turns up, tapping Meredith on the shoulder.
5. The man that pushed Meredith over the ledge into the water. That really bothered me. My mouth dropped open.
6. Why didn't Christina tell Meredith during 45 minutes of trauma practice that she was engaged? That girl bothers me. Which leads me to number 7.
7. Christina. She bother's me in every single episode.
8. Did that little girl go tell ANYONE that the nice lady that had been helping her was just pushed in the water? Or, did she just go find someone else to follow around until they got killed?
9. Christina
10. Why did Dr. Shephard tell Dr. Burke about the Meredith/ bath tub incident? That should have been left between the two of them.
My prediction for next week is this. Dr. Shephard will see that little girl walking around by herself. He will remember that he had seen her with Meredith just a while earlier. I don't think they'll do a dreamy flash back of it, his face will say it all. By this time he would have already been worrying about Meredith, because remember he said something tonight. When he approaches the little girl she will start sobbing and dramatically point to the water. All hell will break loose and Dr. Shephard will dive into the water and will emerge with his soon to be bride. Christina will be where we left her, in charge of sutures, and will see her best friend wheeled in. Dr. Burke will probably be walking by just in time to catch her in his arms before she colapses to the floor. I imagine Meredith will be in a coma long enough for everyone to visit her individually and tell her how great she is.
The pregnant girl that was smashed will recover from surgery, but will have tragically lost her baby. Or, she will die and her baby will survive and Alex will adopt it. This will of course soften his heart and he'll stop being a jerk; and once and for all make up his funking mind about if he wants to go into plastics or obstetrics. Just kidding, I'm positive that will not happen. To be honest I really don't know but I loved that subplot.
I'm pretty sure the lady's son is dead. The chief and that really bubbly girl will probably hook-up, on account that she complimented him on his new hair color. I've already said that Izzy will committ suicide. Only if that guy dies though. If he doesn't then she'll probably want to be an ER Dr. instead of a surgeon. Which, I don't think that's a very good idea. She doesn't seem to be very good under pressure.
If Meredith dies, I wonder if it's because Ellen Pompeo in real life is homophobic like Isaiah Washington, and they're both getting killed off because they can't stand it that T.R. Knight is gay. I love T.R. Knight, gay or not. Well, let's be honest, I'd like him alot more if he wasn't gay. But, that's the brakes.

What happend to the days when, if you wanted to know something about someone you had to ask them? Or, you could be really sneaky and find out from a friend, of a friend, of a friend. Or, you could use my old trick. Find out the password to their voicemail/answering machine and check their messages. That's only if you really wanted to know something though. Checking someone's messages did not give you near as much access into their personal life as Myspace does. Please do not try this at home. You should only use this trick if the situation calls for extreme messures. Like, your ex is dating someone else, and you are crazy, and cannot sleep until you hear what her voice sounds like. This example is merely hypothetical.
I don't know if I'm for or against private Myspaces. In the case of young girls, I am of course in favor of setting their Myspace to private. Especially if their parents are stupid enough to actually let them have one. In the case of responsible adults, I cannot decide. I am definitely against others having private Myspaces. Especially if the person is someone I would never send a request of friendship to. The reason I don't like having mine set to private is, there are people that are not my friends that look at it. Through Myspace, I can passively use subject matter and commentary to comminicate with these people, without them knowing. Or, that's what I would like to think. But, I did recently put a link to my Myspace on my blogspot and who knows what weirdos could be looking at this. I suppose I could take the link off.
I would like for a few of my friends to set there Myspace to private. For the same reason that there are people looking at my Myspace who are not my friends. I really don't want these people, ok let's just say it, this person, to go nosing through my friends profiles that don't really censor what they or others put on them. So, in this case privacy would be A-OK.
My decision is to take the link off of here and set my Myspace back to non-private and rest my head. I wonder what my great-grandmother worried about that was similar to Myspace. Hmmm...can't think of anything as petty that would consume her thoughts. I think she may have been much more consumed with things like, T.B. or the Black Plague or not being shot by Indians. Just a guess.

Today I was introduced to the funniest blogspot in the world. The blogger is re-reading the Baby Sitter's Club books as an adult and posting her takes on them now compared to when she was a child. This has inspired me to blog a book that I wrote in the 5th grade. When I wrote it and won an award I was under the impression that I was a genius. Now when I read it I am convinced that I was a booger eating moron.

How many times will I add and remove blogs? For some reason I feel that what I put on this blog should be much more insightful than what I put on my myspace blogs.
Today was another non-constructive day. I did get my house half-way clean, without being able to vacuum of course. But, as I explained to Ashlea, these days I really don't care. I wish I did care, I would then be able to obsess over cleaning, which I'm used to, rather than obsess over why I'm not obsessed with cleaning. The high-light of my day was when Ryan came home and we played with the dogs, and ate at subway.
Side bar: It's very interesting to see Ryan play with the dogs. I've all the sudden seen a very sensitive side of him. I have known that he is a very caring person. But there is just something so cute about how much he adores Vegas. Reno is constantly picking on Vegas and Ryan has become very protective over Vegas. I take the more non-sympathetic role saying, "Leave them alone, Vegas needs to get used to it." While Ryan is carrying Vegas around the house to sheild him from Reno. Mabey it's a sympathetic male thing. I'm sure Vegas is feeling extremely emasculated and Ryan probably recognizes that.
Any way, since when did the high-light of my day become Ryan's return home from work. Don't get me wrong. I love that I felt happy when he arrived, but I don't think that should be what I look forward to all day long. That kindof borderlines co-dependency. Have I become so much an un-moving figure in my house that I'm no longer a person with desires. Luckily, I will be starting my new full time job on Feb. 13. I'm sure that will give me a greater since of purpose. After all, how can I help to create a happy, thriving marriage and household, if I am not a happy, thriving person.
I'm pretty sure my new job was handed to me by God himself. Everything is exactly what we were hoping for, the pay that I was hoping for, the flexibility to be able to spend time with the family on the weekends, the clientel is perfect for me, and I'm pretty sure it's going to be a lot of fun. Not only that, but every one else in the world has to work I should be doing it as well.
I know that Doctor Laura would be appalled to read this, but I don't think I'll be able to be the mother that doesn't work. I certainly don't want to go to the same extreme as my mother, but I would be crazy if I had to stay at home and not have structure and a schedule at least 3 days out of the week. But, we'll see what God has in store for me in that department.
Tomorrow, I will be doing my retail merchandising job. I don't know if I'll want to keep that when I start my full time job. It seems like I might be trying to put too much on my plate. I will try and see how it goes.
I'm looking forward to experiencing some changes and am hoping and praying for the best.
