    I have a clean house problem that I can't seem to shake. I could get a maid but I would just wonder if she is using the bathroom rag on the kitchen counters... LMAO

    I barely got any sleep last night, now keep this in mind...

    We use a card key to get into our work building. Ok, so I come into the building... the card key is still in my hand. I walk to the elevator and I'm standing there in a sleepy daze. Instead of pushing the elevator button, I lift my card and start swiping.

    Oh.my.gosh.

    I realized my faux pas and FROZE. I was praying to God that NO ONE was behind me. I really do think people saw it happen. Man I felt stupid. I guess it beats the time my editor decided to call a coworker and she was using the keys on her keyboard to dial instead of the phone... and she wondered why no one picked up.

    Starty and Curlybenswife, I'm a cross between the two of you. Love a clean house. My mood depends on whether my house is clean or messy. Of course it's a losing battle, I have two kids, two dogs, 3 rabbits, 1 bird, 1 fish and 1 husband. My house is in a constant state of disaster, and I hate being the one to clean it. I do need a maid.

    Synnen, I could use something pretty, especially something pretty that only my hubby and I will see.

    Hey, can you say "Girls shopping trip!"

    Ya, I'm a pack rat, can't throw anything away. I'm going to have to get a bigger house just so that I have room for my stuff.

    I once sang in front of 250 people, the song was. Doo a diddy diddy (Not sure of the actual title, you know "There she goes just walking down the street singing doo a diddy, diddy dum diddy do." Maybe you are all to young to remember that song. Anyway, I've got it on tape. Don't even ask, not going to share it, I'm surprised that I kept it. Got to remember to burn it. I'll do it later. Did I mention that I procrastinate allot?

    We were on vacation and they had a karoke DJ. I chose to sing Impossible Dream because it's a dream of mine (nearly impossible) for me to hit that note at the end. Anyway on this occasion, I went for the note and broke into a fit of coughing, nearly fell off the stage. It was video karaoke so I have it on video tape. Fortunately for others, something was wrong with the audio so you just have the video of me doubling over and stumbling off the stage.

    HAHAHAHA! Nice Scott, I love ot hear of anyone singing. I wish I could get up the gumption to go and do karaoke, I have always wanted to but really it isn't in me. Oh that video would be a priceless keepsake! Great memeories.
    When I was 15 my parents and I were in Florida to do the whole comedy night at Disney World, for some odd reason I wanted to sing the "love Shack, they make a video and you can get a copy, (which my dad hasn't handed over so I could stomp on it then burn it) anyway, it was real bad these three adults in their twenties maybe, let me do it with them. Holding the guitar with my then hot mama dress on I thought I was cool, but ohhhh NOOOOOO, I wasn't! I am so embarrassed just thinking about it... WOW, I want that tape!

    That's the bane of my existence. I LOVE to sing, but often cannot carry a tune. My wife and daughter refuse to watch musicals with me. When I drive them anywhere they use headphoines to tune me out.

    I love karaoke because everyone makes a fool of themselves so I don't stick out too much. I do a pretty mean If I were a Rich Man (from Fiddler) though. Very Zero Mostel.

    My fave song is Match Maker Match Maker.

    Mac maker Mac maker make me some MAC... LMAO the college kids I work with have no idea of the real song, but they like the Startover version still!
    Uhhhhhh, and I am not sure aobut the Synnen pretty girl video, I would love to hear an answer! :o

    EDIT:::::
    AND when a man orders extra mac, I call him the Mac Daddy... LOL just another funny thing about me, I sometimes embarrass people in the wrong way but mean it very much so in a sweet funny way!
  • Mar 18, 2008, 12:31 PM
    Synnen
    Well I didn't say I looked GOOD in said pretty things.

    I just like to wear them.

    It's just nice when I'm all business on the outside at work to have the secret that I'm all feminine underneath.
  • Mar 18, 2008, 12:37 PM

    I am SO with you Synn! And its an addiction of mine as well. We just got a new Victoria Secret 5 miles from my apt... BAAAAD for my wallet!

    Karaoke? My one embarrassing karaoke experience was doing Thriller with a bunch of Chinese students... wow...

    One cool thing... I was kissed on the Great Wall of China. :) That's a sweet memory.

    My word Scott your on form today ;) so you like to be a clown and love to sing come on what else??

    The most you will get me singing is a children's rhyme its better that way honestly id get committed otherwise although try stopping me bopping around the kitchen singing into the wooden spoon to westlife hehehehehe Millie thinks that's hysterical to watch too.

    Syn my darling you would look good in a bin bag me and start would both vouch for that one :)

    You're just trying to make me blush!

    Here's one that isn't exactly a secret--I collect icicles. I have almost 500 now, and can't get them all on a Christmas tree anymore. I have to hang them from windows and ceilings. And lamps and such.
  • Mar 18, 2008, 02:40 PM
    startover22
    Like glass ones or what Synn? I know you are a wonderful and beautiful Christmas junkie, but explain the icicles please? I could look around here for some if you would like? LOL
    I could see how Millie would love you for that CBW, the kids are the best at understanding that kind a stuff!
  • Mar 18, 2008, 02:51 PM
    Synnen
    Yes, glass icicles.

    I have a LOT of the plain ones that come in sets, so now I'm getting to the point where I'm picky. I have all shapes and colors and sizes, from 2 inches long to 24 inches long. The rule with them is that they have to be longer than they are wide, and they have to be metal or glass (no plastic! ---that just gets tacky!).

    These days I find the really neat ones at antique stores and flea markets :)
  • Mar 18, 2008, 02:54 PM
    startover22
    Ohhhh, I am a flea market, antique store junkie... I will see what I can do LOL
    K, thanks for telling me, I wonder about EBAY say it quietly CBW really likes to spend money there...
  • Mar 18, 2008, 03:15 PM
    Synnen
    I've found some great ones on Ebay as well---I bid one time up to $200 on a small box of them, and then lost because the other person bidding outbid me at the last second.

    You have to be careful about Icicles online, though---in the 40s and 50s, there was a brand of tinsel called "icicles"... and that's what you turn up most of the time looking online.

    LOL! I was thinking, "Ummm Synn, dear, don't they MELT???"

    Wow... HC needs some more coffee...

    Hee, hee, I was thinking, gee, Synn must have a huge freezer. I need more coffee too.

    I'd love to hear Scott sing. I'll accompany you on my accordion Scott. How about it?
