Middle Child and I were having a discussion the other day about exercising. I told her, “Get in shape now....you don’t want to be like me and have no flexibility when you are 40″.
She replied, “Oh….I will have enough money to have someone to do that for me”.
(((blink. blink))

So what’s up with Kara on American Idol? Every time I see her she’s hanging all over Simon. *shudder* On his lap, arms draped around him. It’s weird. I wonder if she’s taking over for Paula in the ‘nutjob’ department. Has anyone checked her Coke cup?

What’s up with Spammers? I don’t get them. Are there actually people that sit and enter spam into our comment areas ALL. DAY. LONG. ? What do they hope to get from this? It’s just so nonsensical. Do they get paid for this?

I shopped for the first time at an Aldi’s. My adventure started with having to put .25 cents into a little box to unlock a shopping cart. Everything there is pretty much off brand/generic. I wasn’t sure how well that would go over but I filled my cart anyhow. My husband says the cheese sticks are better than the brand name. But I’m lovin the Frosted Delights…which are generic Ding Dongs (Hostess). WAY fresher than Hostess. Anyhow….I filled the cart, went through the register….$123.00. Will that be cash or debit?
me: Um. Check. You don’t take checks?
(whattttttt?) So they suspended the order, I ran to the bank and came back with the dough. I figure I saved about $50. Plus, we’re having fun trying out all the new names of the foods, lol. Oh! and I got my quarter back when I returned the cart and locked it back up. lol.

Why doesn’t the computer keyboard have a cents symbol? It has a dollar sign but no cents.
