Oh Good, I Woke Up

So, I took the pill last night, laid down in bed and waited. I actually could feel myself falling asleep. It was kinda weird. I was a little nervous that I would not wake up.....but I did. I actually woke up for a minute or two a couple of times during the night and I remember thinking "I shouldn't be waking up, I am supposed to sleep all night long", then zzzzzzzzz back to sleep. As far as I know I didn't drive my car, cook. eat or have sex while I was sleeping. If I did it wasn't memorable. Since it took me 20 minutes to scrape the ice off my car this morning I kind of wish I would have warmed up my car in my sleep!

Sleeping Pills

I am not a good sleeper, probably haven't had a good night's sleep in decades :) So today I had a Dr appt to get some drug refills and whine for a while (after all I hadn't been there in 14 months so I had to get my money's worth out of my co-pay) and I mentioned my lack of sleep. I asked if there were any affordable sleep aids out there. My doctor wrote me a prescription for Ambien. I asked about the "weird" side effects. He said he has about 100 patients on it and only one had sleepwalking problems. So I got it filled and will be taking it soon. It's so much pressure....you need to be sure you have 7 or 8 hours to devote to sleeping if you want to take it. I figure if I take it at midnight and set my alarm for 7:30 I should be good. Here are the side effects: After taking this drug, some people have gotten out of bed and driven vehicles while not fully awake (great). People have sleepwalked, prepared/eaten food (good excuse for diet failure), made phone calls (I appologize in advance for this), or had sex while not fully awake (no comment). Often these people do not remember these things. Kinda gives you a free pass to be a slutty glutten who talks on the phone while driving half asleep! Nice! Oh crap, only 15 minutes to bedtime. Should I wear something nice in case I sleepwalk in the parking lot??? What pressure!!

Blood Types and Personalities

I am blood type B. They are correct, I am very charming and good at reading people. I really like the career choices and have decided to become a military leader who is a part time talk show host! I found this online and thought it was kind of interesting....it seems the Japanese folks are really into this and even use it for hiring. Sounds like a spendid idea to me. Who needs a Reid or personality test...take some blood.

What Your Blood Type Says About Your Personality

Type O
You are the social butterflies. Often popular and self-confident, you are very creative and always seem to be the center of attention. You make a good impression on people and you’re often quite attractive. Organized and determined, your stubbornness will help you reach your goals. You make good leaders. Lovewise, O is most compatible with O and AB. Common career choices: banker, politician, gambler, minister, investment broker, and pro athlete.

Type A
Type As may seem calm on the outside, but inside, you’re filled with anxiety and worry. You’re perfectionists and often shy and sensitive. Usually introverted, you’re stable and thoughtful. You make good listeners and are sensitive to color and your surroundings. You like to be fashionable and are up on the latest trends, but never flashy or gaudy. You like romantic settings and often shun reality for fantasy worlds. A is most compatible with A and AB in the love department. Common career choices: accountant, librarian, economist, writer, computer programmer, and gossip columnist.

Type B
You can be very goal-oriented and often complete the ambitious tasks set before you. Outgoing and very charming, you’re good at reading people and providing support. Though critical of appearance (but not your own), you aren’t picky and are unlikely to dwell over the little things. Type Bs are impulsive individualists who often create their own path in life. You are very strong and optimistic. B is most compatible with B and AB lovers. Common career choices: cook, hairdresser, military leader, talk show host, and journalist.

Type AB
Not surprisingly, ABs can be quite dualistic, possessing both A and B traits. You may be shy and outgoing, and hesitant and confident. You often stand out from others, don’t like labels, and are nice and easy going. You are logical and determined to do things correctly. Usually trustworthy, you like to help others. You often speak in a serious manner. Your patience, concentration, and intelligence are admirable. AB can find a soul mate with any other blood type. Common career choices: bartender, lawyer, teacher, sales representative, and social worker.

Deep Thoughts Of The Month

Texting is distroying the art of conversation.

Familes should enjoy their meal togethers (at the table, without tv or cell phones). The absence of this has lead to the distruction of the family unit.

There are no normal or hot guys over 50 (my boyfriend is the exception).

DVR is the greatest invention of all time.

Anthony Bourdain

Finally, after 4 long weeks i got an email from my bf. Well, ok, it was a public blog but everyone knows he is writing to me. He probably sensed that I was yearning for attention from a hot guy! It's weird, I always try to add the comment "you are so hottttt!" but it never works! They are always trying to keep us apart....sigh.

That's What Dogs Lick

So no one likes the name Placenta (well, What's for Dinner and I do). My daughter's husband said "that's not a name, that's what the dog licks after the birth". We are not sure what kind of hospitals he has been to, but are pretty sure that there won't be any dogs in NK's delivery room. NK likes the idea of body part names but is not sold on Placenta yet.

Teen Idol

A recent poll listed the top ten teen idols of all times. Who scored the #1 position? Brittany, Miley, Justin??? Nope. Davey Jones. I could have told you that!

Deep Thought Of The Week....Gratitude

The greatest thief of human happiness and abundance is ungratefulness. Any lack in our lives - whether in money, health, or relationships - is simply the evidence of a lack of gratitude. If you focus on lack you are not being grateful, and that will bring more lack into your life. Yet the simple state of radiating gratitude summons everything to you. Try it!

Name That Twin

My friend What's For Dinner had some spiffy name suggestions, she said..............

Well I located a site for mexican baby names and how about: Oswaldo or Pancho for a boy and Zapopa or PLACENTA for a girl?? What a great name Placenta would be.


I agree. What do you think NK?

Name the Twins

NK is having twins in June. I like to call them Hector and Gonzolas. I thought the naming thing was settled. Apparently she would like to explore other names, so let's play name the twins! This might be easier when the sex of the twins is determined, but start thinking!! Names that reflect their 50% mexican heritage would be encouraged. So bring it on!!

New Food Alert

The new food love in my life.....P.B Loco premium peanut butter with cocoabanana. Yum! It is natural peanut butter with chunks of chocolate and bananas. Could be the perfect food. Good on toast, on a spoon. Wonder what Talent would do with it?

Allright Already!!!!!!!

So everyone thinks I am a slacker blogger!! It's true. Comments are a great motivator. So leave one! Let's get caught up..........................

Fat girl is still super cute. She is walking and trying to talk. Every so often she says a new word. Actually she whispers new words...it is strange. Now she is whispering hi and what's that. She likes the Christmas tree but can't touch it so she waves and whispers hi to it.

I found a new great show, "Whatever Martha" staring Martha Stewart's daughter, Alexis and her friend Jennifer. Apparently they always work together because they also have a radio show. Wonder if they have any kiosk ideas? I could get my friend, Angie and the 4 of us could go into business. I guess Nicole could play too since she will be out of a job soon. Anyway, the show features random clips from Martha's shows over the years and the girls make comments and suggestions about the segments. Ok, they basically make fun of Martha. Martha is the producer so apparently she does have a sense of humor. Tonight Martha glued sea shells on a mirror frame and Alexis and Jennifer made one along with her. It's pretty entertaining. The show is on The Fine Living Network which used to be included in my cable network but disappeared mysteriously a few months ago. It took a quick call to my cable representive and five minutes and the network was mine. Oh and 5 bucks more a month. Whatever Time Warner!

2 names have been added to the list......Talent and London. London is just strange but Talent is a hooker's name. Guys will be dying to find out what the Talent is.....

The vacation in the sun may be changing to a trip to see the princesses in Orlando in March. I just want sun. Maybe Prince Charming and I will hook up!! I will tell him my name is Talent :)

I read my horoscope for 2008 just to see how the predictions played out. According to my yearly reading..... in 2008...... I will have lots of money and will meet my true love and in a whirlwind romance surprise everyone and get engaged and or married before the end of the year. Yep, that sounds about right. Boy this horoscope stuff is amazing!
