The Milk to Cereal Ratio

This morning I had a bowl of GOLEAN Crunch cereal for breakfast. I decided to use all the milk that was left in the jug for my cereal. There was too much for my bowl of cereal, but if I used the correct amount, there wouldn't be enough left for anything else. My cereal looked like milk soup!  I ate all the cereal out of my bowl, but what was I to do with the cup and a half of milk left? Drink it? No! Throw it out! Oh God, No!  I decided to fill it up with cereal again! Why did I feel I had to use all of the milk? Why didn't I just drink the milk that was left in the bowl. It is no wonder I struggle with my weight!

Head Cold

My head is about to explode! The sinus pressure and watery eyes are making me crazy. Where is my Sudafed? Dear Mike went out and tried to buy me some remedies. He bought me Sudafed PE and the CVS brand of a decongestant. I read the box on the Sudafed PE..."Does not contain Pseudoephedrine". What? How can you sell something called something that doesn't contain that something? What's next? Jiff Peanut Butter..."Does not contain peanuts?" Yes, I watch the news. I know that they have put products behind the counter that contain pseudoephedrine because I might decide to make crystal meth while I am coughing and wheezing, but this is ridiculous! Call it something else, because it sure does not work as well as the Sudafed I bought the last time. Somebody say "God Bless You" and please don't touch your nose after reading this!

I Can't Wait!

Tigger is Innocent! Accusers Losers!

I can't believe that Tigger's innocence is in question! The video clearly shows that the kid is pulling Tigger off balance. It is also not a punch! It is just a slap, not very hard,  and it doesn't even look intentional. The father, Jerry Monaco, even said that at first he thought his son had done something. Why would he say that? His son must do things like this and he suspected him. Jerry Monaco, Sr. and Jerry Monaco, Jr. are my losers of the week!

The Holidays Are Over

Is this the year? Do I finally lose the weight and get back in shape? I feel 80 years old! How long can I stuff my body. I don't even recognize myself in the mirror. It seems so much to even get up of the couch. I feel so stiff when I wake up in the morning. What is going to make me take care of my body? I have been suffering with apathy for too long. I just can't seem to keep motivated. I think I will go make a frozen pizza.

Losers of the Week... Perhaps Century

The following Massachusetts Senators and Representatives will be damned to the wrong side of history. Today, each of them voted to write discrimination into the Massachusetts State Constitution to ban already legal gay marriage. Each of them do not deserve to hold the offices they hold. They are run by a mob majority. I am disgusted.

Saddam Hussein is Executed

Saddam Hussein was executed by hanging yesterday morning. While I feel that the world will not miss him, I can't really see how executing him solved any of the problems that the world currently faces, especially in the Middle East. I have never felt that capital punishment is the right answer to anything. I have yet to see how a society can call itself civilized when they have a systematic system in place for killing their own members, no matter how heinous that member of society is. I suppose I might want the person who killed someone in my family dead, but is that justice? I think it is just revenge. I am all for making criminal's lives unpleasant, but there is no pain after you die. I would rather have someone be reminded every day of the horrible things they have done and be forced to work and pay for their food and healthcare, while any and all luxuries would be denied... that, to me is punishment. I don't think that many of the flotsam and jetsam who commit these crimes actually fear death anyway. Living without freedom is punishment. Execution makes the victims feel better, but all the perpetrator  gets out of it is the time and date of his death. It is hardly justice and not much different or painful than learning you have six months to live from cancer. Call me a pacifist if you want, but I think I want something much worse than death for these individuals.

I would also like to take this time to say I have no respect for anyone who claims that human life is sacred, but supports the death penalty! Either you elevate the human, or you don't... there is no in between. If we are "playing God" with a fetus, or even an embryo, than what gives us the right to do so with a full grown human, no matter how despicable?

There is so much we need to be doing to make this world a better place. Saddam Husein stopped from oppressing and killing people is a good thing. His execution by hanging does nothing for the world.

Santa Claus Dead? No!!!

Hope you have a very...

Donald Trump is Loser of the Week

Money does not give someone class! In response to Rosie O'Donnell stating reasons why "the Donald" isn't the best "moral compass for 20-year-olds in America", Trump strikes back loud and nasty! Trump had to hit every major network and take the time to call Rosie fat, untalented, and a loser...you name it! What a big baby! Donald Trump is my loser of the week...perhaps year!

The Night Before Christmas Eve

The presents are all wrapped. My back is so tired. When I started wrapping yesterday, each present got ribbon and a bow. Tonight, they were lucky to get a stick-on bow! Each year I swear to begin this ritual earlier. Each year I seem to start it later. I was lucky to finish my shopping early, but early wrapping was just not in the cards. I am a little sadder this Christmas as my Aunt Gloria, who passed away, will not be here for dinner. I kept wanting to add her favorite foods to my shopping cart. Christmas seems a little sadder each year as I get older. So many Christmas songs don't help either. They remind me of past Christmases when everyone was here and alive.  I have had so many wonderful holidays in the past, I guess I shouldn't really complain. I guess I just feel a little more mortal each Christmas. I hope that whoever is reading this right now will be on this earth next Christmas. I sure hope I am!

Is this Jesus?

 

Mike was about to make a  baloney sandwich when he came across this. Is that the face of Jesus? We may never know now, because before I knew it... it was between two pieces of bread and down Mike's gullet!

Teppanyaki Dining

Tonight we went to a wonderful Japanese restaurant, Teppanyaki Asian Cuisine, in Franklin. This was a small holiday get together with our great friends, Susan and Richard.  It was delicious! When we go to Walt Disney World we always catch a dinner at Teppanyaki Dining Room, the Japanese restaurant there, but this one was even better! They give you so much food! But of course I ate almost everything in sight! Even with chopsticks!

Hal

 When I met my partner Mike 11 years ago, I also became friends with a wonderful bear named Hal Hillman. Sadly he passed away in early 2004 due to a heart attack. He had been sick for a while and was waiting for a new kidney. Mike and I miss him terribly. Here is a short slideshow I created of this wonderful, big lug!

Mary Poppins... Supernatural Terrorist?

My friend Michael sent me this link. You will never look at Mary Poppins the same way again! It's brilliant!
