Drank Too Much - Laughed Too Hard - Must Sleep.

It is time to kick off the Thursday Night LineUp - Woohoo!  This has been a tradition for my sister and I FOREVER!  We have been getting together to watch the Thursday night shows together for over ten years now, starting back at the beginning of Friends.  This is the night for us to spend time together.  Now that Friends and Will & Grace and the rest of the original Thursday Night LineUp are gone, we have found new shows to fill the void.  Thursday nights for us involve pajama pants, baking of cookies, eating of cookies and lots of laughing.

Tonight we will start it out with the Season Premier of My Name is Earl, then we will follow that up with The Office, and finish up the evening with the long awaited Premier of Grey’s Anatomy. 

The sad thing is, that I remember a time when Thursday nights were all about “Dollar Drink Night” down at “The Block” at the Oceanfront, which naturally led to “Smell Like a Brewery” Fridays for work the next day (if you made it in)! 

Oh well, getting older sucks - I am still excited about the shows tonight, nevertheless.

Does anyone remember the “Illustrated Wildlife Treasury” from the late 70’s, early 80’s?  Every month you would get a pack of animal fact cards in the mail and you got this nifty green, plastic carrying case that had alphabetical dividers in it so that you could organize your cards as they came in.  I had this when I was younger and I LOVED IT!!!  I have been on the hunt for it for my kids, cause they do not make anything like this now - god forbid our kids have something useful that they could learn from.

I had found a perfect set on Ebay, but like an idiot I missed the bid.  There have been a couple listed since, but they were not very good sets.  They only had like 200 cards out of over a possible 500.  I did find a great site where someone does remember the set, which is where I got the above picture.  He takes a different card and showcases it along with a nice little picture of his own to compliment the card…pretty funny.

On another note, I thought I would share this video that cracked me up.  I shared it on MySpace, but lots of you do not have MySpace sites, so I thought I would share it here too - your welcome! 

Now wasn’t that funny?  There are other episodes (2 through 4) that can be found on YouTube.  Enjoy!

Well summer is over and it is time to knock the dust off this blog and get back to posting on a more regular basis.  I also really need to get around to some other blogs and play some MAJOR catch up!  It has been a really busy summer, and I have loads of pictures on my camera that I need to download and post.  Hopefully I will have a couple minutes tomorrow to get that done.

Our End of the Summer “Best Party EVAH” was a lot of fun.  We made like 300 Jell-O shooters, which were all gone by about 11:00.  We also made two big 5 gallon coolers of liquor-laced punch.  Nadine, Dena and I were so over preparing, that we never ate and got right to the drinking.  I was really starting to get drunk, when Dena’s husband came over to me and said “Dena’s DONE!” - and man was she!!!  Everyone had a really good time.

Since I got rid of my sidebar and everything is in the footer, I added a link to a “Currently” page and I put up a new album for your listening pleasure…please right click and save.  I’ll try and be really good about posting now that summer is over…promise!
