Random Thinks

Alrighty then, it is time for me to venture out of my house. I was closed up with my friend Glenn for a week, so I could definitely use some fresh air. My grandmother would say, "Go get the stink blown offa ya." What a disgusting phrase. I spared my children that, even when they really did stink. A friend called & asked why I have been hibernating. I told her I was mourning the death of Betty Hutton. She saw right through that; she knew I thought Betty was already dead. We all did.

While in quarantine with "Frodoe Godot, found at supermarkets everywhere", (Glenn claims that is his actual, given name,) I was definitely the crazy one. I felt that there was no sense in trying to maintain normalcy, so I went with the wacky flow. It was exhausting & it has rendered me stupid(er). Sunday I sat in my little computer chair slack-jawed while my poor partner struggled to overcome my bonehead errors in the tourney. I sent him more than a few pm "sorry"'s & he always zapped back a "np", but I know there was a mumbled "dimwit" after that np. I've been making a lot of newbie mistakes. Tonight, for the thousandth mother-grabbing time, I tried to play "ot." I played "elf" & was shocked when that wascally wabbit slapped an S on top of it & cleared & won. That hadn't occurred to me...self. I have been having one DOH! moment after another. I'm hoping fresh air & reentry into civilization will recharge my neurons. I should take someone with me because, as stupid as I've been lately, I'll probably step in front of a bus.

TEEVEE TAWK:

I. Does anyone else think the girl on American Idol put her own pictures out on the internet because she knew she couldn't win? If she gets a good contract out of it, they'll all be doing it. Gawd, I'm glad Rupert's gone.

It is actually possible that Howard Stern's fans & other interested parties may determine the Idol winner. They're attempting to keep the 17 yr. old goof ball in there as a prank. I don't like Howard anymore, but I like this prank. It will drive the producers insane.

II. Olivia Newton John has announced that her daughter is anorexic & she's determined to do anything in her power to save her. It seems that Karen Carpenter was ONJ's best friend &, as we all know, she lost her to the disorder. Did anyone stop to consider that maybe Olivia is a carrier? At the very least, she must be one lousy dinner companion.

III. This one's for Nanc: The new season of Dancing with the Stars commenced last night & my early favorite is Joey Fatone, even though it is obvious that he's had some dance training. His partner is the bitchy Russian who slapped Mario Lopez around for 6 weeks. Why does she get all the gay guys? She already called Joey "Fat One", instead of Fatone. I think she'll have him in tears by the 3rd week. I want the beauty queen out right away. She'll have that vapid Miss USA smile frozen on her face for every dance. Viewers just cannot let her tango like that.

(Sunny & 43 degrees tomorrow. It will be a nice day to rejoin the world.}
