Lucky

Happy New Year everyone!

Congratulations Kenne! Your team was pretty durned amazing this year - and mine sucked fairly spectacularly. This was my worst year ever!

Boo. I'm here! I didn't disappear, and Bluesy didn't knock me off and bury me in the back yard ... I'm close to going insane, but that's about it. I'm sorry I haven't popped in to say anything, but I'm happy you asked about me - it gave me a kick in the pants. You just wouldn't believe how things have changed for Blues and I both. We've moved, we're in Bakersfield now, we're taking care of my dad, my job has changed, and it's even more consuming, even though it's at home. Plus tons of other stuff, cause you know when it rains it pours, so I had to take an internet break, because something had to give. I have not done any computing at all since October, other than Fantasy Football. No SF, no facebook, nothing. The past couple weeks I've been getting itchy though .... so, here I am. I've missed you guys!

Do you sell them, maybe to florists, etc? Cardinal Baseball sweetens my coffee!

Thank you Kevin! I'm with you - best Bakersfield song ever, and one of my favorite songs period!

Really Sammy? 193 points? Something tells me that Marques Colston is not going to go for 94 points tonight.

Congratulations Ron - you got out in front right off, and never looked back. Way to go!

Thank you for the birthday wishes you! You all know me so well - Kevin gives me a great song, love Stephen King, love chocolate Rolling Stones cake and Lucky cake, and I am waaay into peach margartia's at the moment - what lovely gifts! Spent the weekend in Bakersfield, and for dinner yesterday I had wanted barbecue. The place we had decided ended up being closed on Sunday (wtf?), so we had to do something else. OMG - we found this little soul food place where I was able to get fried catfish, fried okra, homegrown sliced tomatoes, and sweet tea - HA! And it was cooked correctly. What a gift for a country girl .... I guarantee, I would not have gotten that in San Diego, land of foodies and/or healthy eating, lol. It was lovely.
