Give yourself a spring treat

It's spring, y'all, and you know what that means - SPRING CLEANING!  But don't just clean your house.   Now is the time to give yourself a little freshening up.  Treat yourself to a day at the spa!

If an all-out spa extravaganza is out of your budget (it certainly is out of mine), even a simple haircut can go a long way to making you feel refreshed and ready to tackle a new season.

Gorgeous!  Now go stop and smell the tulips. 

A gift from Goo

My loving big sister, Goo, made me a mix cd for my birthday!  As I've mentioned in previous posts, she's always had a big influence on my musical tastes and has been making me mixes since I was about 10 years old.  She does a fantastic job of mixing new things she knows I will love with classics from our childhood and jams to which we grooved in our teen years... and, occasionally, a surprise.

This time, the surprise was a doozy.  It was Ray Stevens, the Weird Al of country music.  Yeehaw!



Goo and her greatness makes me jump pews and shout HALLELUJAH!

Ice-T hit up Twitter yesterday with some truthiness about ghosts.
Can't pull one over on this guy!

Mama hates Mannings!

In honor of Mama's birthday, I have created some very special photos for her using that bastion of quality design, Microsoft Paint!

Happy birthday, Mama, and may you have many more years of Manning-hate ahead of you!

It's my Mommy's birthday!

I love my mama to the moon and back, y'all. I miss her every day and I hope to goodness that in the coming years, we'll figure out some way to live closer to one another.

Today is her birthday, and I hope she gets everything her heart desires - starting with a nice drink!



And for Christ's sake, Daddy - take the woman to a petting zoo so she can hang out with a goat!

Birthday bash!

My friends and I THREW DOWN on Friday night for my birthday, rapidly-gettin'-old-style! First we went to see a high school dance performance, and then we ate some pizza, and then we went home and went to bed! In all honesty, it was exactly the kind of night I wanted to have - quality time with some of my favorite people, maw stuffed with 'za, a couple of glasses of wine, and a warm bed. I did get a bit nuts by double fisting the cupcakes:


PARTY ON!
