Things That Go Bump In My Night

After all of the doctors, dohickeys and thingeyjingeys attached to my head, all of the magnetic units I have been pushed in and out of, after wearing all of those horrid gowns and non-slip slippers - I have to put more salt on my food. Yes I am depressed (which I already knew) so they gave me... Sign in to see full entry.

I thought "ain't" was a Pittsburgh term being that I am from the burgh and when I have traveled, people have no idea what I am saying. But I watched the classic 1938 movie last night and heard one of the townschildren throwing snowballs say "ain't". I even watched it again to confirm my hearing... Sign in to see full entry.

Christmas Eve was the big night - we weren't allowed to put up the tree before that. It was "tradition" in our family to decorate the tree together that night. And my father (even though he was an Athiest Nazi German) celebrated St. Nicholas Eve where we set out our shoes early in December to let us... Sign in to see full entry.

Tonite was the Christmas Concert where The Little Diva performed. Last night we rehearsed her duet Silver Bells - and I am kind of glad that she was booted because she can't carry a note to save her life. I know that sounds horrible - but I was so concerned that people would laugh at her and in my... Sign in to see full entry.

Naturally - she tells me the night before (last night) that she hates her outfit / she is doing a duet and everyone will laugh at her / and I hate that we are poor.

I wrote this morning that I was impersonating Alice Cooper because I slept with my make-up on and woke up with racoon eyes. Then everybody has to... Sign in to see full entry.

What mistakes did I make? As we took the scenic route home from the hospital today - we passed some of my old "stomping grounds" when I was young and the mansions of the rich people that I stomped with.

Until you find out he's chopping off baby doll heads and making silly hats with squirrel skins. They always say that about weirdos and serial killers - he was a quiet family man / had a decent job / kept to himself - WRONG!! he wasn't tinkering in the tool shed making a new mail box. He was creating... Sign in to see full entry.

Being quite the movie buff, I have never really enjoyed "Blockbuster" movies with lots of adventure and blow-up scenes. It always seems as though the movie itself takes over the "acting" part and it is just one big cartoon. Where's the ACME box? But then again there are some big budget movies that...

"What do you mean what did I do? Why does everybody always say that?" PAUSE - What did I do? / I only threatened a few people lately / I did throw that ashtray at the barmaid / my memory is so bad these days / oh I hope I didn't really rob the liquor store? Wait, Wait, Whew - they are at the... Sign in to see full entry.
