It may appear that I like to talk a lot. I mean because I have 460 blogs over the last year and half (including this one). At the beginning of this blog I only blogged once a day, sometimes only a few times per month. But then when I started using Word Press all of a sudden I'm blogging sometimes 4 or 5 times a day or more. I just have a lot to say.
But my online personality is so not the way I am in real life. I mean, if I have a story to tell then I'm chatting and sometimes wont shut up but there are times that I just don't talk at all. It's not because I have nothing to say but like when I go visit family it seems like my brain freezes, and not the good way like when you drink a Slurpee. It's like all the information in my head drained during the flight or bus or car trip. You know when you are on the freeway for a long time and because you have gone to a higher elevation than you are used to your ears are plugged up? Well, I think that's what happens, my ears plug up to keep all the information in but there is a leak somewhere and all the words just leak out. Maybe it's when I fall asleep during the trip. That's when the defenses are down.
I've visited my aunt's Betty, Louise and Joyce's house and it seems every time I go there, I can't talk. I just have nothing to say. My brain just clears. It reboots if you will but windows just doesn't load properly, it goes into safe mode.
But, you give me a keyboard and I can't shut up. All the information needs to be released and it comes out here.

They like us, they really really like us
Finally, someone stands up for America and it's Canada. I love Canada, they brought us John Candy, Howie Mandel, Martin Short and many more including the guys from the free credit report dot com commercials. Read this...

Circuit City
It's sad but Circuit City is closing for good because of the wonderful economy of ours. They are going to be closing their remaining 500 stores.
I bought my first CD walkman from Circuit City in 1989. It's very sad to see them go.

Broken Rocker
Well it finally happened. I broke a chair. Actually it has happened before. It's an old chair so leave me alone lol. This chair that was in Chips moms room that she's had for a long time, when she passed away we put it in the living room. It's not a rocking chair, it's a regular chair that rocks. A rocking chair would be all wood, this has fabric and springs etc.
What makes the chair rock are these 2 giant springs that are attached to 2 pieces of wood at the bottom of the chair and the springs are also attached to the chair. Well, a year ago the springs broke where it's welded, 1 spring broke and we asked our neighbor Dan who worked in a shop if he would reweld it for us because that's what he does. So he did and then the other spring broke in the same way and so he fixed that too. Well, it didn't take long before one of them broke again but we never had him fix it a 2nd time. The other spring just broke at the weld again so we're retiring that chair lol.
I'm just too heavy to be able to sit in an old chair and rock it. If it were a new(ish) chair like a recliner chair then I'm sure it would be a lot better. This one made so many noises when I would rock in it, like squeeking sounds, you know because the springs needed oil or something. I've sprayed WD40 on them and they didn't stop squeeking. But I've sat in recliner chairs at the furniture stores and they never squeeked.
I would love to get a new chair but I just can't afford it, even a used one. So, I moved the rocking chair and put a regular chair in it's place so now no more rocking hehe. Oh well.

Bridezillas
I was just watching Bridezillas on WE. Why? Don't ask. But omg these women are either classless or nuts. This one woman couldn't stop yelling at everyone. If she could only see herself. One of the things she said was "this isn't his wedding, it's my wedding". LOL ok. If I was the guy getting married to her I would've told her to get married by herself because this isn't just her day, it's his day too.
Frankly I don't see why people are in such a hurry to get married and why it's such a big deal that they have to spend thousands upon thousands of dollars that they don't really have. You could just have a simple wedding at home or at a relatives house who has a large back yard where you can just buy groceries and cook a buffet meal and bake your own cake. And why spend thousands of dollars on a wedding dress you are only going to wear once. Just get a nice wedding dress that is under a hundred that you can actually afford.
A lot of people can't get married you know so I think that they should think about how lucky they are that their wedding is actually acceptable to society before they act so high and mighty about being in such a hurry to get married. I don't know the numbers but a lot of marriages end in divorce, especially the rushed ones.

Naughty Words on TV
I've been watching TV for a very long time. At least 36 of my 38 years that I can remember. I remember when I Love Lucy couldn't say 1 bad word. It actually wasn't until the 80's when the Golden Girls started saying Bitch. Then before you know it, cop dramas started saying Shit. Hey, if they can say it on TV, then I can say it in here.
The cartoon South Park says a lot of bad words like God Damn. They say it all the time. That's like the ultimate bad word because it has God in it. You can't say that on tv. Well, apparently they can because they do and they've carried it over to every other show on tv.
Now, this word I know isn't a bad word, in fact it's just silly. Douche Nozzle. I've been calling people a douche bag for years since I was in junior high school, even though I had no clue what it was until high school. But you know, people have been saying that as long as douche's have been around I'm sure.
Last night, on Knight Rider, the female lead Sarah called Michael a douche nozzle lol. I was like OMG I can't believe she just said that. Yeah I've heard it in the movies but I've never heard it on TV coming from a woman. And I don't mean that to sound like a double standard so I don't want to get emails or bad comments but you know, I was shocked to hear it from HER. LOL
