Nothing too lengthy and/or profound to say, so here's what's left:- I like watching the Oscars, but I hate listening to acceptance speeches. I find them so awkward 50% of the time. I give people about one sentence to see if they will actually give a good speech, and then I hit mute until the speech is over.
- I think I like facebook better than myspace.
- I've given up Diet Coke for Lent (all soda, but I only drink Diet Coke anyway.) Two of my members challenged me - one is giving up soda and the other is giving up meat in exchange for me giving up soda. The one who said she would give up meat is being very delinquent so far (not unlike Melissa at Going on to Perfection :).) I've been wanting to stop drinking soda for a while (at least so much soda) because it seems that all those chemicals can't be very good for you, but I really love my Diet Coke, and haven't made myself take the plunge before. But I am extremely competitive, so I'm finding it easier to hold up my end of the deal this time around...
- I've added some new blogs to my regular read list: Will Samson, Lisa Samson, TallSkinyKiwi are a few to check out.

Haha -- thanks. ;-)
Actually, it's quite awful right now...I've got so much leftover turkey, it's insane. Time for making broth, soup and then freezing it!
Ditto on the Facebook over Myspace...
Good luck with the Diet Coke.
The caffeine withdrawl supposedly passes within a few days. I've never made it to the end of that phase.
I love the blog that you have. I was wondering if you would link my blog to yours and in return I would do the same for your blog. If you want to, my site name is American Legends and the URL is:
www.americanlegends.info
If you want to do this just go to my blog and in one of the comments just write your blog name and the URL and I will add it to my site.
Thanks,
David
I understand the Diet Coke thing, a few years ago I gave up meat for lent and that was a major ordeal for me. I'm someone who can literally tell you the very first salad I ever ate (Sr. Dinner Dance in high school). I hope the time you spend desiring that Coke will be put to good use :)
My word Beth! You are a bigger grouch than me. I can just imagine you there with remote control in hand ready to silence whichever luvvie incurs the Quick wrath. I'd hate to cross you.
I do confess that I switch off adverts and right wing politicians but I'm 47! I am old enough to be a grumpy old man. You are a spring chicken in comparison.
I salute your potential. Keep it up. The world needs us grumps.
I gave up Diet Coke for Lent a couple of years ago. Didn't realize just how grouchy it must have made me, because when I arrived home after Easter services my family had an ice cold can waiting for me on the kitchen table. I think they were as relieved as I was when my "fast" came to an end.
