OMG, I used to read obsessively prior to having the rugratos. All through elementary, junior high, high school and college.
The book that always sticks out as my favorite is Needful Things by Stephan King. Maybe I'll read it again and figure out why since I haven't read it for like 17 years.
Love,
Ann
Hello to all! I am starting a blog for no reason other than pure boredom. Isn't that the best kind? Okay, maybe not. You won't find any political or world-changing information here. However, VERRRRRY important topics may be covered such as fashion, Dirty Dancing on Broadway, my new heels and handbags, my friends and family, my animal rescue stories, etc, etc, etc...

Day 3 – your favorite television program
Golden Girls.
I loved it when I was 7 and watched it all the time with my Grandma, until I got old enough to have a driver's license and stopped staying the night with her. I'd do anything to go spend some more nights hanging out with her.
I loved it when I was 23 and lived with Belle's Grandma while Belle's dad was overseas. We watched it alll the time. So much fun!
I loved it when I could finally get it on DVD! I have all the boxes sets!
I loved it when I was on Maternity Leave this year and watched it at all hours of the night!
I still love it now that I'm home during the day and watching daytime tv :) :) :)
It's the greatest show ever.
The second greatest show ever is Jersey Shore. I'm just sayin'. Gotta go GTL.
Love y'all!

Day 1 - Your Favorite Song
If you have no idea why I'm answering these questions, see Blog Challenge post from earlier today...
OMG, no way can I narrow it down to 1! I will have no problem doing this in some of the other categories.
I am a big believer in "You are what you listen to." I seriously made this up...I think(???). Other people probably think it, too...but I've never heard anyone say it except me. HERE WE GO!
This will be extremely hard to do without large commentary on each song (we all know I talk too much) but...
If you put a gun to my head (scary!) and made me pick my three top favorite songs, it would, without a doubt, be:
Sweet Home Alabama - L.S.
Dixieland Delight - Alabama
Honky Tonk Women - The Rolling Stones
If you happened to mention the gun wasn't loaded, the list would get much longer and would quickly include:
Fortunate Son - Creedence Clearwater Revival - I am a huge CCR fan.
Lodi - CCR
When I'm 64 - The Beatles
Hold on Loosely - .38 Special
Tumblin' Dice - The Rolling Stones
