Not sure what's going on but for some reason, I can't respond to any comments!!
Secondhand Sunday
Sundays are my Secondhand day. I'm basically too lazy to think of anything new to say so I re-post a "vintage" entry.

"OH, WHAT SHALL I BE?"
Original Post Date, September 4, 2009
When I was a little girl, one of my favorite games was called "What Shall I Be?"
This exciting game showed us all the options that were available for the aspiring career girl in 1972.
The most helpful thing was that you could look at your personal attributes and weed through the careers to find the one you were best suited for.
You are emotional: Good for Model and Actress
You failed biology: Bad for Teacher and Nurse
You have a nice smile: Good for Airline Hostess and Model
You are overweight: Bad for Airline Hostess, Ballet Dancer and Model
You are pretty: Good for Model and Actress
You are clumsy: Bad for Airline Hostess, Ballet Dancer, Model and Nurse
You are friendly: Good for Airline Hostess, Nurse and Teacher
You are a slow thinker: Bad for Airline Hostess and Nurse
You are calm in an emergency: Good for Airline Hostess, Nurse and Teacher
You get too excited: Bad for Airline Hostess and Nurse
Oh, the dreams that were available to us as young ladies...
What a crock of shit!
The years I wasted when I could have had this lovely as my role model.
"She starts dancing when the music starts and goes up and down and round and round."
The personality cards would still be helpful for choosing the right career.
You would be a great pole dancer if:
You are pretty
You aren't clumsy
You failed biology
You are a slow thinker
You have a nice smile
We've come a long way, baby.

Watch the little dancing machine in the background. Talk about stealing someone's spotlight!
I sleep solo
Tuesday, May 17, 2011
I've never been very keen on sharing my bed with anyone.
No, not even then.
After we do the deed, put your pants on and leave. Or sleep on the couch or something. That Lucy and Ricky knew what they were doing by sleeping in separate beds.
That said, when I say that I sleep solo, that means no pets, either. For as much as I love them, I prefer that they sleep comfortably in their beds next to mine. That hasn't been a problem so far since Bernie is too chubby to jump on the bed anyway. The only time I bring her up is during a thunderstorm to calm her down.
Vinny slept on my bed the first few nights I brought him home but he stopped for a while when I mistook him for a pile of blankets and kicked him off the bed. Twice.
Since Millie's been here, Vinny has decided that daytime is dog time. He lets me hang out on the couch with them and take them out for walks with nary a meow. But when it's time for bed, that's Vinny's time.
Both girls are lounging in their beds so right before I turn the light off, I yell, "Vin Vin!" and I hear his bell tinkling up the steps as he races to my bedroom. To ensure that no one thinks he's a Mama's Boy, he stops just short of the door and casually strolls toward the bed.
"Sup?"
I told you that Vinny had started peeing in the house again with the warmer weather but ever since Millie has joined the household, he's stopped. I think she's his muse or something. He just sits and stares at her for the longest time. He must be excited by the thought of the taboo of their love and always seems startled when I catch him looking at her.
"What? Um, no, I wasn't looking at a dog. I was staring at a bird. Yeah, that's it...a bird."
I'm beginning to think that sleeping solo is overrated.
No, not even then.

New dance craze
Wednesday, May 11, 2011
Okay, so how many of you remember the 80's classic, Weekend at Bernie's, where these two young guys were invited to spend the weekend with their boss at his house in the Hamptons?
As you may recall, Bernie died shortly after they got there but since they didn't want to give up their one chance at Hamptons reveling, they pretended that Bernie was alive.
Here's the newest dance craze inspired by the movie. I tried doing it but I got dizzy!
Can you do it??

Monday Morning Bernie & Millie
Monday, May 9, 2011
Hi Guys! Sorry, I've been a lame-o and haven't posted anything worthwhile lately. I've been having a really hard time with things, especially with Mother's Day, so I've just been trying to keep busy with both houses.
I did manage to go out and buy a Flip video camera but I haven't had much time for anything other than lame videos. Get used to 'em. I'm going to start a library of them once I can figure out how. This is the first one.
If you're a Facebook friend, you've already been treated to it but here it is again.
You're welcome...
This is pretty much how Bernie looks all the time. Caught Millie in a down moment.

Monday Morning Vinny

My new favorite show is Selling New York.
I'm afraid this is all Mommy can afford, Vinny. Move over.
