| All females want to touch Rob's face... |
I'm a bit hung over.
Friday nights kill me.
So now I have a pretty good headache going
My stomach feels like I swallowed a bucket of dirt.
Yes. Dirt.
And the phone keeps ringing.
Why?
There isn't anything that important that has to be said.
Stop it.
Anyway.
A sweet still from WFE.
I can't put into words how much I want to see this movie.
I love Reese Witherspoon.
She is so lovely.
Her and Rob onscreen make such a pretty picture.
Robert has never looked better.
And that is saying a lot.

| NONsense! |
Yesterday I wrote about a dream I had.
I knew it would get a lot of play.
Kinda why I posted about it.
(So easy to push buttons)
It was a DREAM.
I know it may be hard for some 'people' to comprehend
But dreams aren't REAL.
And Nikki Reed doesn't fly around on broomsticks
(that I know of)
And if you throw a bucket of water on her...
She really doesn't melt.
Although she might not be too happy about it.
The big difference here is I don't hate NR.
I don't dedicate page upon page hating on her.
I don't have a forum...
JUST to hate her.
I'm obviously not a fan of hers...
But like some 'people' are always howling about
I have a right to not be.
 |
| What is that wet dog smell? |
So any news on Robert and Kristen?
Not really.
They have the weekend off!
No matter if we get a peek into their day or not...
You can count on them spending the time
TOGETHER.
You get the impression that Kristen isn't much of a 'party' girl.
She prefers to stay in...
Watch movies.
Cook.
Surround herself with people she loves and trusts.
And you get the impression that Rob is perfectly happy
doing the same things.
Especially eating what Kristen cooks.
And just being with Kristen.
Because if nothing else...
Rob seems to spend a lot of his free time
With Kristen.
Kristen.
Kristen.
Kristen.
 |
| Rob and Kristen. As Always. |
I know that some 'people' get tired of always having to
deal with Kristen when they just want to talk about Rob.
But.
When Rob is always WITH Kristen...
There isn't much you can do about it.
It would be a lot easier to discuss just Robert...
If he could stay away from Kristen.
But obviously...
He can't.
Nor does it seem like he wants to.
Nope.
He just keeps showing up with her
all over the place.
Robert has a made a point of being with her.
Robert has shown the world
who he wants to be with.
Kristen.
;)
 |
| Just because. |
Where has Tom been lately?
I miss his face.
A lot.
I hope he does lots of press for his new movie.
Please.
Please.
Please.
I would love to see him on Fallon or Kimmel...
*swoon*
Anyway.
This post is brought to you by the letter *D*
D for Dreams.
It's only a dream.
D for Day.
You can have any day.
Every day.
Bye for now

Guess I have just missed most everyone. Good night sweet Roselanders, and sweet dreams.
DK, and SueBee, and others still around, hi, *waves* and have a lovely evening.
Peeking back in after watching a couple of movies back to back. Stuart Granger in the 1952 Scaramouch and then the super fun Mama Mia, which I am embarrassed to say I had not ever seen before. Loved it! Great cast, fun songs, beautiful Greek Isle. Plus, handsome Brosnan, Firth, and Skarsgaard! Who knew they could sing! : )
Smitty, hugs and wishes for happiness being sent your way. You have a kind soul. Stay wise, true to yourself and protective of what you have and treasure.
30, wow, the Jack White vid was wild! New one for me and quite artistic. Thanks, enjoyed it.
Super RN, sorry this has been such a trying week. Hope tomorrow starts a whole new happy trend.
Take care y'all.

A giftie for you DK.
Rocking my senior high school year with the fantastic music from Tommy. Loved this version by the Assembled Multitude of the overture that came out the following year. Great memories of listening to this awesome music! Remember how excited a best friend was when he played the Tommy LP for me for the first time.

Okay, a little story....
Seems like kindness cannot be a little thing or a little story, really, can it?
I finally got out for a dinner at my favorite local restaurant, where I haven't even stopped by to say happy holidays.
Got a delicious margarita and found myself thinking how some good tequila would cure my cold for good (call me foolish, it applies).
So, I asked the owner, who is a tequila expert, what he would recommend.
At first, he thought that I wanted a shot of something and said something for $6 or $8 dollars. I said no, about $30, not realizing it was for a shot, people! I was thinking a take home bottle.
When he got down the $150 a bottle number I gasped and corrected his impression.
So, he chose an Arette Reposado (family-owned for 100 years) which I had tasted at his tequila night, and sold it to me for only $30, a great deal for a superior tequila.
Here's the kindness, truly, he packed up three of the biggest limes I have ever seen and gifted them to me for the healing of my cold.
It's the little extras, that kindness shows, where friendship grows and colds must GO.
Besides, my heritage endorses the use of spirits for healing, for remember, there were no medications of note, in the ancient times of which I am sprung, thankfully.

@Bren Gwen Birdie and Louisa
Where are my special pals to listen to my dribble?
Come out, come out, to play...
Hola muchacha!
Scotch and soda? really--
Never heard of it...
@Bren
Why would have heard of it, you are a lightweight about drinks, is that what you meant or the song?
The song, sillybilly....
I definitely know about drinking scotch and soda...too funny...
What's happening , chica...have really missed you guys.... these early hours are killing me....
@Bren
Since I was a kid, and we had so much meatloaf, I've hardly been able to eat it or meatballs.
But I have discovered these Aidells chicken and turkey meatballs and now I am insane for them. What gives with that?
Word verf. "herbili" I am indeed an herb, and billy, tee hee.
@Bren
Don't let the sun catch you crying about your early hours, Bren. I can adjust to whenever you are around, if it be my will.
Did I tell you I bought 3 winter coats yesterday and do you want to know all about them?
I want to hear ALL your news, start with the coats...why so many?
@Bren
I realized that I don't have enough coats to wear for the right times.
Recently, I needed a dressy coat, which I did not have.
Then I noticed that my down coat with its special qualities, has weathered and grown cold on me.
Plus, there are some Midwestern days that are too warm for heavy coats, if you can believe that, I was surprised myself.
Matt is totally a meatloaf lover, he would eat it everyday if he could...
I love chicken, but hate turkey....
I hate chicken in a salad, or a pizza, that totally grosses me out...
I'll tell you a funny story next post...
@Bren
Lucky day for Dreamer! She found coats, all on sale, just right for the right times and snapped them up.
I've got a plaid (leaning toward plaid like our favos) car length coat (remember what that means? 3/4length) gray and purple, so chic.
Add a bright pure white down jacket, which does not slim but takes off ten to twenty years facewise and is warm enough to ski in or Super Bowl party in (tailgater, outside of course, no wimps invited).
Finally, there is a black/gray Forecaster jacket that is reversible, wicks away moisture and resists the wind called Mariah (my version).
I need the Forecaster for I am famously clueless about forecasts and so needed help with that.
You approve of my choices, yes?
You do need a different coat where you live...your weather is so variable...
We had snow like around the 2nd week of Dec, but nothing since...so I wear a thin coat for work, and a thin jacket for casual...so that works for me, cuz I hate wearing bulky stuff...
@Bren
You want more snow? I am at your command as FGM.
Tell the story...
verf "bille" of course you are..
yes, little mama, they all so sound really cute...
Tell me about Gwen and Birdie, how are they doing...
Gwen hasn't taken off on a safari, has she?
I think we are pretty much done with winter here, Feb is always really more Spring like.....oh, so ready for Spring...
You keep getting the billy's how weird.
@Bren
While you are typing, I'll share how I was able to get some greasy moisture into those chicken/turkey meatballs, for I assure that is what I require to call them delicious.
Simmer in beer, this time Mothership Wit, covered and then add olive oil and uncover so they get crispy, brown and full of it, inside and out.
Turkey is so dry otherwise and chicken not that exciting without lots of spice.
Oh, angelica1 had KFC in England today, and her husband was jealous to miss it and so was I.
That girl paid him back for the 10 inches joke, however, I hope he paid her back with them.
Ooomph, you know what I mean?
@Bren
Where is your funny post? Surely, agreeing with me is not that funny but kind of expected to make a conversation continue?
@Bren
Yes, I do dream and never did share the R/K dream out of sheer perversity or shame, remember?
Come on, dish out the funny, Dreamer will not be sidestepped or distracted, unless she is.
My Old Man
Joni Mitchell:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y8gOsqUPhvA
My old man
He’s a singer in the park
He’s a walker in the rain
He’s a dancer in the dark
We don’t need no piece of paper
From the city hall
Keeping us tied and true
My old man
Keeping away my blues
He’s my sunshine in the morning
He’s my fireworks at the end of the day
He’s the warmest chord I ever heard
Play that warm chord, play and stay baby
We don’t need no piece of paper
From the city hall
Keeping us tied and true
My old man
Keeping away my blues
But when he’s gone
Me and them lonesome blues collide
The bed’s too big
The frying pan’s too wide
Then he comes home
And he takes me in his loving arms
And he tells me all his troubles
And he tells me all my charms
We don’t need no piece of paper
From the city hall
Keeping us tied and true
No, my old man
Keeping away my blues
But when he’s gone
Me and them lonesome blues collide
The bed’s too big
The frying pan’s too wide
My old man
He’s a singer in the park
He’s a walker in the rain
He’s a dancer in the dark
We don’t need no piece of paper
From the city hall
Keeping us tied and true
No, my old man
Keeping away my lonesome blues
Thank you/DavidAlleen
@Bren
OK, who distracted Bren? R, N or M, must be the culprits. Don't they get enough of you in real life? And you say I am a hoochie mama, Missy Bren.
@Bren
I am reduced to sharing my wonderful hair smelling story...
Anyone have grown children (female) that have mastered the art of lying right to their mother's face? (I raise my hand)
Seems that on my birthday celebration weekend, when I made sure that I smelled extra specially good, to cover up age and the effects of cognac y cerveza, someone close to me was seeking extra feminine powers of enchantment that belonged to me.
Wisely, I bought a delightfully, delicious smelling hairspray which also encouraged volume but definitely provided an enticing smell, onto my person, particularly my head.
Not only was it a success, resulting in kisses on the head and exclamations of deliciousness, but the daughter discovered the power and highjacked it from the cold-sickened one who deserved and paid for it. (Money? Who cares for that?)
There it sits, even now, in her private den of disguise and female invention, even though I moved it back into mine!
That young one, has the secret, and it is take it away while the madre sleeps and don't tell her.
I wish her love and exclamations of deliciousness, for mothers pass onto daughters the joys they have had. No?
Then again, I wish myself some volume and head kissing enchantment factors, and I will get them back, soon. For the final time...
You should share the R/K dream, you said it was really funny, I would love to hear it...I'm sure everyone would enjoy it....everyone knows dreams are crazy....
Yesterday on tv they were showing a woman who eats toilet paper, swear to God, it's true...well last night I guess cuz I had that in my head, I dreamed that my dog kept coming into the room with a dryer sheet in her mouth, and acted like she was going to eat it, so I took it away from her, and she would come with another one, and then again a third time...so I wondered where she was getting them.I walked to the hall and discovered my hall was full of dryer sheets, and that's when I woke up....
C'mon tell it...
@Bren
Oh, if I only had a dog, and one that brought dryer sheets to me, what consideration. However, the hallway full of them is less darling of a dog, to be doing.
Hmmm, should I take the chance and spill the dream beans and all?
yes, do it......
Are you gonna watch the bears and Jets win tomorrow?
@Bren
You know I will, spill that is.
@Bren
What? What happened to the Packers?
@Bren
All righty, then, you're off again.
I'll start my silly story.
I'm hoping the Bears beat the Packers---and the Jets beat the Steelers....sorry mama, didn't mean to freak you out.....there are two games tomorrow....
@Bren
Like Rose, I have vivid and interesting dreams. Had one about a month ago that involved R/K and my bff.
The doorbell rang and there was Rob. That is Rob and several of his bodyguards. He asked me if he could hide out inside for a while since fans were closing in on him. (Sure, he did that once with some other person, a famous star, but I didn't say this was an original dream, did I?) I refused. (Not!)
He came in and told me he was thankful for my courtesy and could he impose a little and sleep a while, for he was so tired?
Naturally, you know my response. To watch Rob sleep in a non-creepy way, would be heaven on earth, if one would dare to do that. (Not me, too polite)
Before he drifted off, he said that Kristen would be picking him up in the morning. I offered to cook breakfast for them and was accepted but told that there was a timeframe for leaving that had to be met.
(What about the bodyguards, who cares about them, silly, it's a dream?)
No problem for the master chef and perfectly organized-me, I thought.
In the morning, my bff arrived unexpectedly, and although she said she would help me make breakfast, she made small talk forever, with my R & K (Kristen had come) and left me adrift in my own kitchen.
My kitchen had turned against me that morning, for all of the pans I pulled out of the cabinets were greasy and had to be washed.
Also, the eggs I had broken into a bowl, fell onto the floor which looked absolutely filthy with dust. Had to start over again, but no more eggs were to be had.
Then all of my serving dishes were in the dishwasher, unwashed, so I had to handwash them. Everything that could go wrong, did.
R & K kindly mentioned that they were indeed very hungry but unable to wait any longer and must go.
I apologized profusely about not knowing how it all had fallen apart like it did.
They were so nice to understand and offered me autographed photos but I, in my chagrin and stupidity, said no, for I didn't deserve them. No breakfast for them, no pics for me.
They shook their heads, rolled their eyes at each other (so cute) and left.
Luckily, that when I woke up and still was partly in the dream, I didn't go with my plan to smack my bff silly and kill myself by overdosing on chocolate wafers, from an unopened, fresh box, a mouse had nibbled on, just a little. Or did I dream that, also?
Funny, not really, but an opportunity lost is not worth the rest of your life wondering, what if, is it?
Give me another chance R & K, and I'll have breakfast catered in for sure, all essentials included.
No bff better happen to stop by, when I do...the harpy-still haven't forgiven the perceived slight, to this day and present time.
That was totally Hilarious!
OMG, why did you not want to tell it?
Thanks, for sharing....everyone will love it.....
@Bren
Don't you think that the person I was in my dream was just a little too stoopid to be believed?
Are you pooped from all that typing..LOL
Did you finish telling me about your meatballs...did you have them for dinner?
@Bren
Then again, Rob did go and make surprise visits to local Naperville, IL families before the Oprah show and I could have saved him from the masses, if he neeed me, couldn't I have?
Stupid, not at all....that's what makes dreams so crazy....believe me, it was so funny....did you laugh when you woke up, or were you frustrated?
@Bren
I ate about 6 of the meatballs and there are more in the fridge for manana. So, no more to say about those, there, them meatballs.
Thanks for clearing up the football fears, for I see you live in the future and do not know that the Packers and Bears will fight to the bitter end, in our slippery, sloppy, naturally sodded grass stadium.
We like rough, here in the Midwest.
It's still really cold out there huh?
Go to a sports bar to watch the game , that would be fun....or do you go to your local?
@Bren
I did not laugh, I almost cried!
I was never a kitchen wizard nor a great cook and if Rob had come to my door, I would have offered him a Heineken and the sofa for a nap, dumbhead that I am. Kristen and I would have cooked in the morning or that may be a dream idea, too.
However, beer with anyone, especially Rob, would be better than any breakfast anywhere in the universe, and you know it.
@Bren
The thing about sports bars is that too many different sports are playing at the same time.
I want total immersion in what interests me, I'm like that, have you guessed?
Are you hanging with B and J tomorrow?
Our gang is meeting at noon....it's gonna be a long day....but great fun...
We're only allowed to wear jerseys of the final four teams....I'm wearing the Bears and Robert has always been a Steeler fan....
@Bren
B & J have not invited the old madre, so I will do as I wish.
Yes, I'll go off to Jokers and I will wear my personal photo of Walter Payton and myself, from 1987on my head as a hat. Beats a jersey, don't you think?
Darn right lady---tell me the funny story behind that photo....my grandfather loved Walter....(see, I already know it will be a funny story)
@Bren
Or perhaps I'll wear that photo as a badge or name tag and have people guess who the people in it really are. That might be more fun.
@Bren
You wrong me, it is not a funny story, except for the fact that I did try to sell that very photo on ebay when I was down and out. No takers.
Walter opened a local nightclub in the town where I worked for the police and lived for myself.
He had to come in and get id'ed for his liquor license and as the chief office honcho, I had the great honor of escorting him around.
An officer took his fingerprints but I had my picture taken with him.
He was all Sweetness, as he was nicknamed, and handsome to boot.
Of course, I had to go to his nightclub, and dance etc. several times afterward but did not see him again. His illness and death were a shock to us all.
A great athlete and fine person is always remembered by his true fans.
How did you get the pic? b4 a game?, did you tackle him?
@Bren
Read my last post, and no, I didn't tackle him. I used the authority of the Man, to hold him in place and get that photo.
That is the true Chicago way of conducting official business, unofficially.
Interesting story, how nice that you actually got to talk with him....he was a great player.
@Bren
Getting tired out, Ms. Bren with all of the changes in your day?
Oh, I went to Ascot again, if you care to know.
love that---conducting official business-unofficially
That's your racetrack right?
I love playing the ponies....do you?
My bestie wanted me to go to the casino today, but I told her I would take a raincheck on that....I just had too many things to do....
@Bren
Are you hosting football today? Make any special dishes?
I love the drama and costumes at Ascot the ponies, not so much.
Nicole got home from work a little bit ago, and now we're watching The Karate Kid...
Remember Ralph Macchio who starred in it...he will turn 50 this year...OMG, he was like eighteen...I just looked him up...

Donald Byrd-1960's:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DqmieCY7W8o
Thank you/MusicForYourFunk
@Bren
I do remember him and had a big crush on him, too. Hmmm, 50 is he married? Tee, hee.
Wax on, wax off and so on.
Hi, to N, from D.
@Bren
For a short while, when I first became a Rob fan (along with Kristen, too), I couldn't understand how some of Rob's fans reacted so strongly, when they saw him in person. Then, I recalled an incident which helped.
My Irish friend Kathleen was always telling me about her beautiful son Patrick, and how when he was in school, girls would leave him notes, follow him around and such, since he was that gorgeous.
I took her many stories about him with a grain of salt for I hadn't met him and by then he was grown up and about 25.
One day, when her husband was in the hospital and I was visiting, while waiting for the elevator, the door opened and out walked the most beautiful man I have ever seen in my life.
K ran up to him, calling him Patrick and introduced us. Believe it or not, I could not speak, my mind was addled, and my breathing was very shallow.
It came to me, that I might pass out soon, if I didn't get a grip on myself, so I made myself answer the young man's greetings.
There was a light in his bright blue eyes, as he looked down for a moment, probably to hide a grin.
He had to have known my reaction and seen it many times before, in other women and maybe even in all of the people he met.
I left soon after and did not meet him again, but now relate that incident to what Rob must go through in his everyday life, also.
Guess I have a true understanding of those fans, when surprised with such perfection in person, lose themselves for a while.
A problem only develops if you don't find that part of yourself that you lost, and think that person still has it or wants to keep it, until you return.
That is crazy thinking but I can almost get it.
Sweet Rose, you said: "Robert has shown the world who he wants to be with Kristen". Yes true! Who's speking is an absolutely Robsten fan above everybody, from 2 years, and now after all this time, me, but also many many Robsten fan would a proof of Kristen's love FOR ROB. We want to see a mature Kris, it's time Rose really it's time to move for her!
@Bren
That is not a salad but a lovely vegetable garden! Salads like that are few and far between, and now I understand that the labor involved, makes all the difference! It is excellent, I'm sure.
Makes a lot sense to me...
lady, I just noticed a good friend of mine sent me an e-mail today, and I best answer her, cuz I'm not going to have a chance tomorrow...
@Bren
Fine, we can say Adios and I'll wander the universe for eternity or until bedtime, whenever that is.
Take care, have fun, be happy.
Be careful tomorrow, there will be a lot of celebrating in Chicago...
Later.
Anybody home?
@Birdie
I'm home, are you?
@Birdie
You are around I know it and reading comments to catch up or getting ready for the day. Seems like good options...
Sorry, I had to put the coffee on. Are you still here or did you disappear into your alternate universe?
@Birdie
Here, I am.....
I see London, I see France.
I want to see Birdie, but she leaves before I get the chance!
Oh, my, poor, poor, poor me.
I was just reading your tequila story. Are you imbibing tonight?
@Birdie
Hours ago, and only for medicinal purposes, Nurse Betty.
This cold has hung on for quite awhile. As I see out and about in Roseland, I assume you are getting back into your groove.
@Birdie
The so called "cold" which may have been "retracing" due to being in a healing phase health-wise lasted for five days-remarkably short, as these things go, IMHO.
@Birdie
Knuckleheaded me, for I thought you meant me personally, not the cold outside, happening now during winter?
No Father Winter is not retracing health-wise, or is he? Nature wins in the end, doesn't it?
I had an unusual experience last night. The parents of seniors(high school) throw a party on graduation night. We do different things to earn money. I volunteered to help serve at our local Sportsmans Club annual wildlife feed.
The menu: wild turkey, bear, antelope, assorted venisons, rabbit, boar, beaver,raccoon, squirrel, and rocky mountain oysters. Oh and alligator. I was somewhat nauseated the whole night and opted to go in back and do dishes. There were 200 or more men there. Alas, all beer bellied hunters with assorted hunting caps and T shirts.
My concern was for your health, DK not outside.
@Birdie
Oh, it would be very hard I think to find or feel, love and/or lust among so many wild things-the men included.
Hiding in a kitchen doing dishes was the right choice.
Aww, thanks for your concern about my health. You know I won't get out of this world alive!
@Birdie
And, I don't miss living in Minnesota so much when I hear those kind of wild beast feast stories. It makes me glad that the wildest thing around me these days is my long, shaggy hair.
I was catching up on some of your stories. I love the hairspray story. Having 2 teenage girls I understand. They are such funny creatures with a logic all their own. They often borrow things, but are horrified if I even enter their rooms.
@Birdie
There was a very exclusive restaurant in Chicago, back in the day, and it was Cafe Bohemia.
I thought it was known for serving Bohemian food like schnitzel and pork tenderloin but I was wrong.
When I heard that they served the rarest of wild animals like lions, and so on, it freaked me out. They were in business for many years. Some things are changed for the better now, than back then.
Well it was a bit disappointing since I don't go out much. How can I be in a room with over 200 men and not find one of them attractive? Maybe I missed the good ones while back in the kitchen. This is one group where if the men are still single there is a good reason.
@Birdie
My daughter C denies using my things outright and accuses me of accusing her, falsely. Imagine that.
When I find my stuff in hers, and show her it, she denies what is in front of her eyes, those lying eye...lol
Deny, deny, deny, a truly clever skill that my son has taught her over the years.
I did try one bite of alligator because old Bill(my dish dryer) insisted. Luckily it was batter fried and did not taste too bad. I chickened out on the rest of the food.
But you are going to be getting out more, as soon as the weather turns sweet, right?
I'm going to help you find that one in a million, if he doesn't find you first (which works best).
The kids lying... This is the one thing that drives me nuts and they know it. They deny until "you" are blue in the face and tell me I am losing it and crazy. I have questioned my sanity more than a few times. They are that good. Man I hope I live long enough to see them have teenagers!
You are so right on about that lying they do. As if we don't know and yes, we question ourselves after a while. Perfect statement of truth, Birdie.
Alligator deep fried could be done. Anything breaded might be tried unless someone tells you what it really is, like the Rocky Mt. oysters and brains. No way.
I am a true believer in fate. If it happens it happens. Really, I am kind of lazy when it comes to relationships or not that lonely. I sometimes think it's because I spend most of my waking hours meeting other people's needs so I'm content being in my own company.
You have expressed that before, about fate and I agree.
There is the possibility that someone would meet your needs, Birdie, and share the burdens of life, meeting you in the middle.
Let's conjure that one up for you, by thinking it is possible.
Oh Dk, ever the optimist!
REPOST
DK, is ever the FGM! I believe in creating miracles, and that there is no order of difficulty in doing so.
What you see is what you get. Seeing differently, makes a different miracle appear.

So today is a big football day and you are heading to Jokers? (I am still skimming comments).
I can't believe they are playing outside in Chicago? Is that right and how cold is it there? Because it is "fucking" cold here!Excuse my French.
It's 5 below zero right now.
Chicago expects high of 18 with light snow showers. Both the Packers and Bears are motherf's you know and cold will not defeat them, but they play poorly in hot climates.
Tough midwesteners! Those fans must be crazy sitting in those stands. Much better idea to sit in a warm bar.
Yeah, I ain't so tough anymore. Used to go the Viking games and tailgate and then watch the game when there was no roof, Birdie.
Alcohol did provide needed fire in the belly for survival.
Alcohol is part of the midwest survival kit. You can freeze to death with a smile on your face.
So true and it can make you get hypothermia, as I did once. It was scary and happened in less than a minute. Warming up took a long time. That happened in Hopkins MN not Ely as you'd think.
You mean you could not tell that you were that cold.
I remember more than a few nights out and about in the winter as young idiots. I don't tell my kids those stories.
I was walking from the car to the American Legion, a distance of maybe 100 feet. The wind was blowing hard and I had no headgear on, so my body heat took a dive and I could hardly talk, walk or keep the contents of my stomach down. Was that it?
Hello, Roseland!! Wish you all a happy Sunday!!
Freddie, I'm glad you stayed with only fond memories of your stay in Portugal...well apart from the Taxi driver :)
Smitty...Please be careful!! Wish you and Gruff all the hapiness.
HI, DK and Bridie!! Hope all is well :)
Hugs to all
Kátia
Could be...although that mimics the consumption of large amounts of alcohol also.
Katia (katy)
Hugs to you, also, along with happy Sunday wishes.
Good morning Katy!
Don't think I'd had any yet, sillybilly! The night was just beginning at our local hangout the Legion.
@Birdie
I was wrong. It was another bar, out in Eden Prairie, no cover around and maybe 20 below, or super cold.
Whatever, it was, I survived to tell you the tale of misery, woe and the glory days of yore, that are no more, cause they are less.
Well in that case, it may have been hyopthermia. I'll bet they pulled the alcohol out of the survival kit to warm you up!
The idiot friends had gone ahead of me and I was actually left alone in the parking lot, and had to make myself run before I couldn't. When I got inside, they at first laughed at my speech but then gave me that shot of Everclear, I'm sure that's what it was or bathtub gin, lol.
Hi Rose and Roseland-
Just to wrap up this little escapade-it really was THAT Lauren and I believe she is being sincere. She again said how sorry she was for her part in kind of ruining the vibe or whatever here.
Best thing now is to just leave it alone. I appreciate all the warnings and all but really I'm fine. This affected all of you more than me because I never saw the posts--they were usually deleted. Take care and happy Sunday.
One other thing Go Packers (for Rose) and please please please Steelers BEAT THE JETS!!!!!
Everclear! Lord haven't they banned that. I remember drinking that. The closest thing to rubbing alcohol.
As you said, we don't tell the kids these stories and now I find that I don't want to hear theirs, makes me worry too much. You know, like the jumping off of bldgs. in Vegas kind of things.
@Smitty
Thanks for the good news and happy day to you, too!
Smitty,
I am glad that someone stepped up to the plate and did the right thing. Maybe others will follow suit.
Have fun with the Jets game!
DK,
I am getting to the point where I don't want to hear what my kids have done. I think I am starting to trust that I have taught them right from wrong and even though they will do stupid things, they have good heads and hearts.
@Birdie
It is good to know that they have stored what you've given them and you trust in them. I do, too.
My son is a risktaker like me, and the daughter is a worrier, unlike me. There are strengths in each, and it is their paths to choose. I keep reminding myself that no one is alone.
Morning all (or afternoon as it is for me!)
Glad everythings ok Smitty.
Hope everyone has a great Sunday!
Lots of love,
Liza
Happy Sunday all! Just a quick drop by on my way out. Hope you all have a great day (esp all the football lovers here).
Smitty- Glad to hear it was legit. Will be happy to leave well alone.
Sweet, sweet Sunday with greetings from our friends!
@Birdie
Think I'll sign off and get some shuteye. So enjoyed today with you. Shall we dance? Lets, and sooner rather than later.
Good day, to one and all!
Well darling DK,
I have to get something productive done. I really enjoyed the chat and have missed it. Maybe I will see you later,since I don't work tomorrow. Sweet dreams,possibly get a second chance at that breakfast with R&K.
Bren,
So sorry I missed you. Another time.
Have a great Sunday LJ and Melinda!
Hope all you football fans enjoy the day!
Good Morning Roseland!
Smitty- So glad it was sincere. Good for her..that was very brave. Enjoy what's left of your weekend :)
Rose- I hope you are feeling better. And for you..Go Packers! Even though I am a Colts fan..LOL.
I'm working and will miss most of the football. Happy Sunday to all :)
Rhonda :))
Hello and all those pleasant things people say to one another in greeting!
I haven't slept, so apologizes if this isn't completely making sense..
I think today is Sunday.. not entirely sure, but hope everyone is having a happy day. Or will have a happy day.. I have no clue what tim e it is.
Wait.. football is still hpapening?
Hi Smitty! Hi Tracy! :)
I am glad she was sincere with the apology Smitty.(Please, still be careful though) I hope the HS BS drama is stopped from thus forward.
Only time will tell I assume. But I agree, lets all move on from this.
Have a lovely day ladies!
Those infallible things in life again:
It is Sunday
There is football
And Tracy wonky types with no sleep :)
Glad the drama is hopefully settled. Bloody time the grey matter was engaged.
Go Bears?!
Gooood Morrrrning Roseland!
I always feel like Robin Williams when I say that. Not to sound like a broken record, but it's f*ing cold out, -2 F.
It appears we had a happy ending last night. Time will tell.
*waves* to all.
Good morning everyone,
Smitty, happy for you. Thank you for letting us know that all is under control and fine. Enjoy your day, may it be beautiful.
Thank you Roseland overnight shift,
love the stories (especially the breakfast dream), music (Joni Mitchell, Chicago) and sage advice.
Go "favorite" teams! Have fun and keep warm.
Hugs
Hye
At least it's sleep deprived wonky typing and not heavily medicated wonky.. cause noboyd would be albe to read that AT ALL!!
I can't really read this screen, contacts are out and I'm too far way.
and it's Sunday!
Hi 30 :)
PL,
Brrrr,
Are you near Muskegon, on Lake M.?
Good Morning Roseland!! Hope you all have a wonderful Sunday. :)
Smitty - glad to hear things are good, and thanks for letting us know.
Tracy - WTH are you doing up still?? Try to get some rest, though I like your wonky typing. :)
Penny - we have effing -15 right now...good thing is it is supposed to warm up to 26 tomorrow,but then you know what happens.....more snow.
Cate - *gasp!* The Bears?!?! Seriously woman....the Bears?!?! >:P
Liza - hope you are having a fantastic afternoon!!
Hi 30, Rhonda and Oliva and anyone else out there I missed!
GO PACKERS*GO PACKERS*GO PACKERS
Yes your under the influence typing is a language of its own!
Legendary I might say?
Antique rugs…hmmm there is a thought there somewhere?
Kay!
I have no sworn allegiance to any team. However, the hubs is a diehard Chicago fan so for my own safety and sanity I just say go team.
And whispers…good luck to the winner :D
How does one properly clean an antique rug I wonder..
Ooooh.. I like this song that's on right now
Hi Kay :)
PL! sup? How's it going? and Olivia!! :) HI!
Is the song Scottish?
Does it make you feel like you have the stutters?
Would it make me want to walk along way?
Yes
Not so much, but that may just be cause I can't think straight already
and deifnitely.. as long as you want to be the man who falls down at my door
And I'm going to bed now I think, or breakfast first and then bed.. whatever gets me to bed at this point.
Laters!!
'Night Tracy :)
Cate - if you cheer for the Packers in your head, he will never know!
Okay, my race is on to get as much done as possible before kickoff.....have a good day everyone!
Kay,
So I should be a cheese head but only in my head?
Not sure my fried brain can keep up with that.
That would make fried cheese…hmmm...munchies!
Good day, Good night,
Good luck to all fans today!
:)
GOOD MORNING ALL...

I meant "football" lol
Good morning Roseland!
@Smitty....I'm so happy she was sincere. Moving on.
Is there no love for the Jets here at all? :) :) :)
I hope for two great games.
Happy football day everybody!
Annie, I was just about to post a message for you which was going to say
In honor of YOU Annie I will be cheering for the Jets.
Good morning Kami :).....Thank you!!! :)
Annie...I am rooting for the Jets too and the Packers for Rose.
I just have one tiny thing to say about Lauren then I am moving on.
First Lauren I'm glad you are seemingly being for real, doing what you did took courage.
I just want to point out in a brief...yes brief...comment...it wasn't as simple as ruining the "Vibe" of the blog. Cruel, vicious and mean comments were made not only about the ones the troll is upset with. They have verbally abused us, they have engaged in making fun of us, our families etc. They launched an unending and cruel assault on people they never met, and got a sick pleasure out of upseting us. I overreacted...yes....but I was coming from a place of emotional stress and upheaval..not childish vindictiveness. The lack of human compassion and good will was beyond comprehension, it was selfish and shameful.
Now having said that, you seem like you're being truthful and real, you have asked for a chance to make ammends and it has taken courage. So from this moment on with me...you have a clean slate, anything you've said or done to me, is forgiven and forgotten.
Best of luck
@Hope:)
:) Thank you!!! It should be a great game for both the Packers/Bears and Jets/Steelers
Of course a win to the Packers for Rose. :)
I believe it will be below freezing for both games. Ouch!
@Kami......(((((Hugs)))))
Olivia,
The answer to your earlier question is, Yes.
To all the football fans, enjoy the day and I hope your team wins. I'm just going to enjoy that the sun is shining for a change today.
Hello my friends!
Hope everyone is under a blanket or next to someone warm (or hot.) (waggling eyebrows)
I tend to agree with Kami. Those troll posts were malicious.
I had the strangest dream last night that I was chatting with wino ninjas. Go figure!
I'm unaffiliated football wise so good luck to everyone's teams.
Football tackle hugs
Susan
I don't like Nikki whatsoever, and her fans too. I am pretty sure they are worse than Kristen or Robert fans. Nikki fans hate on Ashley, Kristen and Robert. It's terrible.
Twitter users are:
weLOVEnikkireed
NikkiReedMafia and CrazyForNikki
They call Ashley Trashley and directly tweet Ashley with hate. If I was Ashley, I'd so report them and say something back. Or if I was Peter I wouldn't be lurking on those particular twitters. Unless there are only those Nikki fans to talk to. And they hate on Kristen, saying Kristen's on crack. Erm...Well? Nikki's the one who has a history of taking drugs and having underage sex. So I don't quite get it.
Rose by the way, your bitch slap to a certain man or woman, on friday (?), in the dream post, was brilliant.
I also agree, you can't talk about Rob independently as much, because to think about him now? He's filming Breaking Dawn scenes. And he's with his girlfriend no doubt.
To Roselanders...
Ive decided Im going to Chicago one weekend in the near future to hang out with DK...I want to fly in on a friday and out on a sunday. I want us to find a nice hotel downtown and go to some famous chicago restaurants and bars. ITS PARTY TIME!
If you would like to join us we would love to hear from you..that way we can find a hotel and hopefully be able to get all interested Roselanders in one place.
You can send me an email, my info is on the e blogger. Im thinking May because it should be warmer then..Im open to suggestions..
Wooo hoooo Rose!!!!! :D
Hello, Rose & Roselanders!
Bears lost, Packers won-long may the winner reign!
Go Midwesterners!
Pride
Syntax:

It's made up of lonely moments
There was always a moment there When I knew
You always gave installments
Always knew you concentrated and grew
And I believe in reinvention
Do you believe that life is holding the clue
Take away all the lonely moments
Give me full communication with you
Your smile shine a little light, alright
Don't hide, shine a little light
Give up on your pride
Do you believe in reinvention
Do you believe thar life is holding the clue
Any way to face the silence
Any way to face the pain that kills you
Give up on your pride, the moment's gone
Give up on your smile, life is long
So I seen a bad dream, that you were gone
Got bitten on the soul, my blood will run
Give up on your pride, the moment's gone
Give up on your smile, life is long
So I seen I bad dream, you were gone
You're bitter and cold, my blood will run
Thank you/UGottaHearThis
Yeah Packers! (I'm from WI if that's not obvious!) Hello to all Roselanders hope everyone had a great weekend! I'm hoping Rob and Kristen were able to enjoy their time off TOGETHER!
I'm also hoping the newest rumor about a Breaking Dawn trailer being released at the MTV movie awards is true!
ADDICTED...Oooohhh..that would be exciting...keep us posted..when is the MTV awards?
@ Super RN...I don't know the exact date but I know it is in the summer sometime.
Hey Everybody!
It's been an extremely busy weekend here in IB-land. Shuttled kids all over the region.
Also, we have below zero temps. here and I am freezing!!!!
Rose~Glad your Packers won.
Smitty~Sorry I missed you and sorry but I gotta root for the Jets bc I'm from NY and I love an underdog.
Annie~It looks like you, me and the Jets!
DK~Loved your dream. If I showed up would you make me breakfast?
Saw everyone talking about chili. I brown my meat and then throw everything in the crock pot. Yummo!
IB...that IS a good question..I think she needs to let us know if we are welcome to come to breakfast in her dream...I want to eat breakfast with them too..even if it is just in HER dream! lol
Sorry you r freezing to death..You can come visit me and we will get you some good southern cooking and some boiled peanuts too!
@Super
I am on the phone already and will be quite a while, just sayin'.
DK
Super~What is the temp. there?
How is your F-I-L?
Going to Chicago? Lucky Duck! If you came to NY City, Annie and I could come:)
IB 50 today...what is FIL??? Why cant u come to Chicago??? I have never been to Chicago..I want to go check it out...but I will come to New York too!!!
DK.. I will catch u another night...no problemo...
Father-in-law.
Sadly, Chicago is not in the budget:(
50 isn't bad~I'll take it over below zero.
IB...He is still in the hospital but seems to be doing ok..thanks for asking...Yes, I am thankful for 50 !
Super~it is very quiet here tonight...everyone mus tbe watching the game....I'm going into lurking mode
ttyl
Hello Roseland!
I hope everyone had a great day :)
Rose- Congrats to you on the Packers win :)
Hi Rose & Roselanders!
I rarely leave comments but am a faithful reader of Rose's blog & always get a chuckle from your antics.
It made me sad to see hate being brought into this happy place. Hopefully this weekend was the last of it.
As for Smitty, I am so impressed by her graciousness. Such a forgiving and open heart is a beautiful thing. I want to be more like that when I grow up! :)
Have a good night, everyone!
@Bren, Gwen, Louisa or Birdie
Off on roadside garbage patrol, if I miss you when you check in. Be back soon.
Hey Little Nite Owls!!!!
Is anyone hanging?
@Bren
Hanging? Yes, been doing the household chores, in the sweet, cold outside.
Warming up now, where are you?
@Bren
Re: roadside garbage patrol
That doesn't mean that I am patrolling through other peoples garbage, no, indeed!
Sorry, no one was home, so I went for a walk....
I can't hang long y'know...
Did you enjoy your day?
word verif.--untees
funny, I thought you were checking out everyone's garbage..
@Bren
Good day, good night, lots of living been had.
How about you?
@Bren
"Untees", I've heard of them. They are undies you wear as a t-shirt, very practical idea, especially in the summer.
My condolences on your Bears loss...
Dem little underdoggies, just weren't ready to play with the big boy's today....
It's cool, we have a lot of friends who are Packer fans, and of course R is ecstatic about the Steelers, so all is good...LOL
@Bren
Kind of miffed with Syd!
He made me play that Proclaimers song, "I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles) and it has not left my head yet.
It's still playing over and over, so that I have to sing it out loud, several times a day for some kind of a release of pressure.
I knew that would happen for it happened the last time I played it for him.
Thanks, Syd for another brain freeze. Love ya!
@Bren
So true, they usually screw it up on the last few minutes, wouldn't want to miss with the record, would they? All in all, they were surprisingly scoreworthy.
Love the Packers, too, for I have to, they are winners, most often, and Midwesterners, like me.
Oh ya, I remember those, as in undies on the floor....what is wrong with us...we haven't used that phrase in a long time....
Oh, now I remember...you haven't mentioned meeting anyone new lately....what is up with that?...
You don't suppose you're slipping,
do you?---nah, not you...LOL
