Wow. I really haven't been here in a long time. Well, I've been here, I just haven't been posting like I should.

Life's been busy around here. Since it's FINALLY getting warm out I've been getting my planting pots out of my storage area to get my balcony garden started again. I thought this year I would plant more than just Mums (though they do turn such a pretty color in the fall!)...maybe I'll get some Crysanthemums and Tulips. They smell so nice....

And....that's all I have to say. Dang, but I'm boring.

Toodles!

P.S-I have Jack as my icon!!! Yay Torchwood!

Just got home from work. Thank the Lord for getting things done early and being able to go home.

The weather over here has been absolute crud: rain, snow, sleet....just nasty stuff. Makes me very, very glad I managed to get my garage a couple months back. I have a lot less to do, especially when it comes to the having to move my car because of the snow plows. With the Garage, that is no longer a problem. Plus, I also have a little extra storage.

I'm currently trying to watch Law & Order here, but the cable keeps fritzing out on me. Makes me wonder if the wind here is going to blow out the lines again. That happens...but at least the power crews are quick to act when everything happens in the city. Much better than living out in the country where it takes them days to get things done.

At least I have tea. I just bought some herbal pomegrant tea from a little shop downtown and it is absolutely marvelous. The box says for additional taste I could add some warm crandberry juice or something to it, but I believe it's nice just the way it is.

As I sit here typing I have come to realize that I haven't been on here alot. It's not that I don't want to blog or anything, I just don't have a lot of time to write. And when I do have time to write it's normally boring stuff like it is now.

I am such a dull individual, it's sad. I need a life.

I suppose I'll get a life, though, once I can get everything settled and have some money put away. I want to take a vacation really, really bad this summer. Maybe go someplace nice and warm like California or Florida....maybe even Hawaii!...though I doubt I could ever afford Hawaii. I would be lucky if I could afford to go to Missouri. Who knows? I might just settle and go to the Iowa State Fair this summer. I've never been, and it's always made me curious. State Fairs are foreign to me...and, what the heck, I can't die until I've eaten something in a stick. But we'll have to see what happens.

I don't have that much saved up, sadly. State Fair seems the farthest I'll get for now. But if I keep up saving what I can, maybe someday I'll get in a nice vacation someplace warm and tropic. *dreams* Ah....yes, that would be nice.

Well then, I suppose that's all I have to say on this boring little blog of mine. Maybe when I get a few days off I'll travel around and try to get a little more done on this site...like a new icon for starters. I love the cute little one I have now but February's over and I can save this one for next year. Maybe I can find a good Red Dwarf one if I search...or Dr.Who...or perhaps even Flash Gordan.

Tata!

There's not really a lot to watch on Mondays now that CSI: Miami is only running re-runs, so I decided to check out some of the other channels and found....nothing.

Then I came across NBC and the new American Gladiators. Let me just say that the new Gladiators, male and female, scared the crap out of me!! The Gladiators were much, much, MUCH, bigger and meaner than I had ever seen them be when I used to watch the show when I was little back in the 90's. It was as if they had eaten steroid pies or something and hadn't stopped until their heads were all the sizes of peas on their gigantoid bodies! Not to mention their fighting tactics: They are down right dirty fighters! I felt so sorry for the people that had to go up against them!!

Despite all of this, though, it was rather entertaining to watch. A lot of the things in the show have remained the same, except I don't ever recall them having to swim underneathe fire at the final round...but hey, you do what you can for TV I guess.

Will I watch it again next Monday? I don't know for sure...probably if there isn't anything else on to watch.

And speaking of entertaining, I absolutely adored the newest episode of House. I actually watched the whole SuperBowl for the first time in my life (Yay Giants for winning!) and then watched the new episode of my favorite pill-popping daughter. It was a great episode with all the twists and turns you would expect....and then....at the end...Cut-throat B**ch had to come back. I HATE that woman! But it's a love to hate relationship, so I suppose it's all good.

And I think that's all I have for now to talk about.I have a meeting in the morning so I'm going to head off and get into bed so I can get up in time to actually eat breakfast tomorrow.
