Potential
I have been having a nagging thought lately...what if I have already achieved my full potential and it's all downhill from here? More to come when the thoughts organize themselves...

Nerd Deluxe
I already knew I was a nerd. This is not news. But last night I had a dream that I believe elevated my status. I was playing a board game called Grammar Deluxe. That's right...this was not just the plain old version of the classic Grammar game. It was the deluxe game!
Of course, now that I'm awake, I'm trying to flesh out the game because I actually am dying to play it. Mark says it's my million dollar idea. I'm not so sure about that, but I kinda could see the game being available on ThinkGeek or some such spot. Hmmmm...maybe a copyright is in order.
Until then, this is the Nerd Deluxe signing off.

Idiots, dear idiots, how you entertain me
Just ran across today's hysterical idiot moment. I am endlessly entertained (and annoyed) by people that get words and grammar wrong, especially when they are trying very hard to look smart. Just stick to the small words, people.
The word for today is rampid. According to the writer, the flu was running rampid in her school. I guess that means it was going on unchecked and doing it really, really fast!

I'm Back
Taking it slow. Easing in. Might go take a nap. Yeah, I think I will. I'm not lazy - I worked all night. But, make no mistake, I am back.

Random Observations 4-20-10
It's 4-20. Do you know where your, uh, well, dude, do you know where anything is? If you partake, enjoy. If you do not, enjoy. Everyone is entitled to a good day.
I get so much joy out of seeing the cherry blossom trees and the tulips during their brief appearances at this time of year. They don't last long and I know that makes me appreciate them all the more.
I just read a comment on a website where the commenter called someone an "escape goat" when he meant "scapegoat" and I just cannot stop laughing. It's been hours and, every time I think about it, I start laughing hysterically again. The mental images, the questions about how someone could really believe that's right. So, I guess if you pickk on someone and blame them for everything, they want to escape...like a goat. Hence the term. Yes? No? Who cares? It's cracking me up!

Lainie Kazan
I just saw Lainie Kazan in Ugly Betty. First, let me say that I have loved Lainie since the very first time I saw her in My Favorite Year when I was just 12 or 13. I have always considered her to be one of the most fabulous broads EVER!
Sooooo, oh, Lainie, Lainie, Lainie. Your face. Why did you do that to your fantastic face? You didn't need to, really you didn't. You're better than that and I was so sad to see you all pulled and puffed and tweaked like that. You're beautiful and beauty like yours is timeless. Or was.
Sure, after a certain age, sometimes we all look in the mirror and don't quite recognize the woman looking back at us. Well, I do. For me, it' my mother and, while I think my mother is a lovely woman, I would prefer to see myself in the mirror. However, I am who I am and I would rather recognize parts of myself that are still truly me and not parts that are, well, parts!
Ladies, don't change yourself. Please. You are amazing and fabulous and deserve to be exactly, precisely who and what you are. And you deserve to revel in that.
