Hey Babe

I'm tired of hearing about the swine flu. And I think that pigs are getting a bad wrap. How could you not just adore their cute little piggy faces? I was pleasantly surprised how many different types of artwork could be found with these little guys. I found it all on Etsy. I guess Babe and Wilbur have been moonlighting as muses :)


The top photo is this adorable painting on canvas found at Peacock Garden.


What do yo think about this little guy from Fruit Fly Pie?

And I feel giddy when I look at this happy face from Amy Perrotti.

But I love my house

This is the kindof day I've been having.

Honey and I have been renting a house from one of his family members for 2 years now. We have been doing small things to improve the house this whole time. But we have been doing semi-big things to improve the back yard (which is a lovely size). And it has come to this. . . I love our house. I love the covered porch, I love the jasmine we have planted to grow up the porch supports. I love the french doors in the kitchen. I love the odd angles of the ceiling. I love the open living room. I even love the fact that it needs a lot of updating and much more remodeling. I love daydreaming about what we will do when we buy that house.
Fact is, I have always assumed we would buy it.
We broached the subject with said family member last month and we have finally heard back. And. . . .drum roll here please . . . darling house is not for sale.

*sigh*

How can this be? This is messing up my plans. And anyone who knows me knows how I hate to have my plans messed with.

But nothing can be done. So we are now looking for a different house.
All I can think is "but I love MY house." Too bad it is not actually mine :(

Like nails on a chalkboard

Am I really the only one who finds this girl unbearably annoying? I know that the entire show can be irritating. But we all need our little guilty pleasures.

That being said, I simply can not take one more statement like "Maybe you should hook up with Brody to get Justin Bobby back."

Recap

This was my weekend. How was yours?

Why am I a complete computer retard?

I can not get my stupid blog to do anything I want it to. For example, my earlier post today was supposed to have a completely thrilling trailer of True Blood. No such luck. Apparently I am incapable of uploading a video. That's right folks, that super easy little post a video tab does not work for me. Also - I want my blog to be wider. I want my banner to go all the way across the top of the screen AND I want to be able to post photos without having the entire right side deleted due to lack of space.

What is wrong with me? How is it possible that children can have successfully delightful blogs, yet mine looks like a child created it in a hurry, while having a temper tantrum, after a head injury?

Ok- rant over.
Thank you for your time.

Real Blood is for Suckers

The 2nd season of True Blood is due to show in June. YAY! These are all things that I can't wait to see:

• what will happen with the whole human / vampire / shape shifter love triangle
• is Lafayette really dead ?!
• will Jason be half naked most of this season as well?
• what will happen with that really annoying girl that Bill was forced to turn?
• will they be able to conjure up anything more disgusting than the bartender's death at Fangtasia?

BTW - How funny is their little slogan? "Real blood is for suckers" I love corny puns.

Feels like home

Amos Lee. I seriously can listen to his stuff everyday and not get sick of it. Beautiful.

Just listen to this or this and try to tell me you disagree.
